GTM remains tightlipped after we presented them with specific media inquiries
After reassurance of their intention and willingness to respond to our enquiries, especially since they (GTM) vehemently denied the story of the Samsung Tablets that they allegedly bought for R137 977 from Game, it all came to nought at the time of going to press. Read the full story on page 5.

Vlieg kan maar net wens dat hy ook ‘n deskundige was. Vlieg was wel een aand, lank gelede, ‘n dawnkundige! Dit was nogal ‘n lekker partytjie êrens in ‘n restaurant, in die dae toe Des en Dawn nog baie optredes gedoen het. Dit was vir Vlieg te lekker dat tannie Dawn in ‘n stadium op sy skoot kom sit het. Dit het nie gelyk of oom Des omgegee het nie. Maar van die res van die aand kan Vlieg nie so baie onthou nie. Hy onthou wel dat hy die volgende dag nogal olik was, seker iets geëet die aand wat al ‘n bietjie af was! Maar dit het eintlik nou niks met die saak te doen nie. Vlieg dink dit moet nogal lekker wees om ‘n ware deskundige te wees. Om so ‘n wye kennis, insig en ervaring van ‘n vakgebied te hê, moet darem regtig bevredigend wees. Gee ou Vlieg darem wat hy toekom. In sy lyn van wetenskap is hy nou nie heeltemal ‘n nul op ‘n kontrak nie, maar hy sou die eerste wees om te erken dat deskundige nou nie die beste woord
is om hom te beskryf nie. Hy probeer maar. Anders as Vlieg, natuurlik, is ene professor Gert Zaayman nou iemand wat ‘n deskundige genoem kan word. Voor vandeesweek het g’n mens, behalwe Vlieg, geweet wie die man is nie. Vir die een of twee lesers wat nog nie weet wie hy is nie, word wakker! Daar is nou ‘n man van inbors. Dit mag dalk nie as ‘n verrassing kom vir gereelde Vlieg-lesers nie, maar ten spyte daarvan dat ‘n plaaslike regsgeleerde op Loopstraat wil gaan en sy eie klas-aksie teen Vlieg wil instel, is Vlieg, veral nou, nie regtig ‘n groot bewonderaar van regsgeleerdes nie. Daarom dat Vlieg hom nogal daarin kan verlustig as een van hulle ‘n slag behoorlik op sy moer kry. En so was dit dan v.i. (Vlieg Insiens) vandeesweek daar in die hogere hof met ene advokaat Barry Roux. Nee wat, ou advokaatjie, jy het nog baie om te leer. Met ‘n man soos Gert Zaayman gaan jy nie ploeg nie.
Jy gaan hom ook nie boelie nie. Lanklaas was Vlieg so beindruk met iemand soos dié proffie. Nie net het hy met absolute gesag oor sy vakgebied getuig nie, maar hy het homself gehandhaaf as ‘n man van oortuiging, en die etiek en waardigheid van die mediese beroep gestand gedoen. Die probleem met deskundiges egter, die prof uitgesluit, is dat die meeste van hulle nie is nie. Hulle dink misien hulle is, maar allermins. So dink Vlieg se maaiers en papies soms hulle is deskundiges in die dissiplinering van maaiers en papies. Die meeste deskundiges is maar soos Vlieg se skoonbrommer. Hulle dink hulle is deskundiges oor alles. Amper soos Bloubul-ondersteuners, maar darem nie heeltemal so erg nie. Intussen kan Vlieg maar net aanhou wens dat hierdie soort deskundiges, in plein Afrikaans, net hul bekke hou! Gee daai Zaayman ‘n klok!
Die menings, uitsprake, standpunte, verwysings, komplimente, beledigings, humor, ensovoorts van Vlieg is nie noodwendig dié van die Bulletin nie!

‘City of Tzaneen’ needs infrastructure, says mayor • Record R933m budget tabled Significant salary increases, repairs, maintenance and depreciation of Eskom’s tariff for bulk purchases are the main items that have demanded a budget of R933 million for the Greater Tzaneen Municipality for the new 2014/2015 financial year. The GTM’s mayor, Ms Dikeledi Mmetle, said an amount of R844 million has been made available for the operational budget, when she tabled the budget during a special council meeting at Bokgaga. She pointed out that the budget shows an increase of R77 million over the 2013/14 financial year. Mmetle said the increase in income will come from an increase in service charges and external grants from the central government. The property rates are to increase by 5,6%, while the tariffs for consumptive based services such as solid waste, water and sanitation are all to increase by 6%. Electricity is to go up by 7,39%.
Mmetle said the total revenue budget includes an amount of R236 million representing the equitable share allocation to the GTM. According to her, an amount of R77 million will be levied by way of property tax and R431 million will be sourced from user charges. National allocations to fund operational activities amount to R4,6 million, which includes the Finance Management Grant of R1,6 million, the Municipal Systems Improvement Grant of R934 000 and the Extended Public Works Programme (EPWP) Grant of R2 million. The expenditure amount also includes R251 million for salaries, R122 million for repairs and maintenance and R269 million for the purchase of bulk electricity and water. “In terms of percentage, staff cost — which includes salaries and employee benefits — will be 30,8% which is within the 35% maximum set by national treasury,” she said. Bulk purchases make up 30,1% of the total expenditure and repairs and maintenance constitute 18,2%. The remaining 9,3% of the budget will be allocated for general expenses. “Infrastructure development is crit-
ical if we are to achieve our dream of transforming our town into a city in the next sixteen years. Infrastructure development is an economic driver; it creates employment during the project and even years afterwards. An amount of R173 million has been allocated for capital expenditure for the 2014/2015 financial year. This amount includes the Municipal Infrastructure Grant allocation of R83 million which will be spent on roads, sport and recreational facilities, as well as an amount of R18,5 million which represents counter funding on MIG Projects. Capital from own sources amounts to R65 million,” she announced. Mmetle further explained that as the Mopani District Municipality is the water services authority, the GTM is the water service provider and under the Service Level Agreement, Tzaneen operates and manages several water and waste water works. Three of the water treatment plants in the GTM’s jurisdiction have been given Blue Drop status, meaning that the water is clean enough to drink. — Michael Sakuneka michael@bulletin.us.com

Die inbrekers het van bo deur die dak en plafon toegang gekry en die veiligheidskameras buite aksie gestel, sê mnr André Liversage, die hoof van die lisensieafdeling van die GTM. ‘n Sekuriteitsogie wat die drie kluise in die gebou bewaak, kon nie sy werk doen nie omdat dit deur stapels lêers toegepak was. Die inbrekers het twee kluise met kantsnyers oopgesny, maar dit was leeg. Die “groot” geld was in die derde kluis. Ongelukkig vir die skelms was hul snylemme gedaan en hulle moes padgee. Die skade aan die twee kluise was egter nagenoeg R100 000 en die toetsterrein moes twee dae vir die publiek gesluit word, om die nodige herstelwerk te doen. Wat vir Liversage egter ‘n raaisel bly, is dat die sekuriteitswagte aan diens nie ‘n geluid gehoor het nie. “Daardie kantsnyers (“angle grinders”) is groot en maak ‘n

oorverdowende geraas. Daarby laat dit vonke in alle rigtings spat. Watter soort sekuriteitswagte was so horende doof?” Northern Security (wie se alarmstelsel deur die ogie geaktivieer moes word) se besturende direkteur, mnr Kobus Naudé, kon nie sê of die sekuriteitsogie kwaadwillig of agtelosig toegepak was nie. Hy waarsku maatskappye nietemin om te sorg dat sulke ogies steeds funksioneel bly, wanneer meubels of kluise in kantore gerangskik word. Dit klink vir hom ook snaaks dat die twee wagte aan diens niks gewaar of gehoor het nie. Boonop was hulle in teenstelling met die vereistes nie in sekuriteitsdrag geklee nie en hy het verneem dat hulle ook nie deur die polisie ondervra is nie. ‘n Navraag by die polisie se woordvoerder in Tzaneen, kol Moatshe Ngoepe, oor die voorval het niks opgelewer nie. Hy het Maandag gesê “ek het geen inligting hieroor ontvang nie” en Woensdagmiddag het hy ons opvolgnavraag beantwoord met “vra die GTM wat gebeur het”.

Mopani se grondleggers van landbou vereer Die eerste AgriLetaba Gala-erkenningsaand is die week by die Junction in Letsitele gehou, waar leiers in landbou vir hul bydraes aan die landbousektor vereer is. Die seremoniemeester, mnr Dries Enslin (uitgetrede voorsitter van AgriLetaba), het gesê AgriLetaba is vanjaar 101 jaar oud. Hy sê daar is besluit om van die mense wat gehelp het om die Laeveld die afgelope jare te tem, erkenning te gee. “Nege benoemings is ontvang van mense wat die landbougemeenskap uniek maak en wat baie vir die omgewing gedoen het of steeds doen. Die kriteria waarop die benoemdes beoordeel is, het op drie punte berus: • Die bydrae wat die persoon tot die produserende landboubedryf gemaak het; • Hoe die persoon bygedra het tot die uitbou van die Letabaskou, wat beskou word as die beste plattelandse skou in die land, en • Hoe die persoon bo die res uitstaan en
Tzaneen en AgriLetaba se beeld uitdra en kwaliteit eerder as kwantiteit lewer,” het hy gesê. Spesiale toekennings is deur mnr Pie-ter Vorster, die voorsitter van AgriLetaba, aan mnre Abraham van Rooyen van die Royal Group Africa (wat Du Roi insluit), Louis Vorster van Westfalia Fruit, Philé en Tommie van Zyl van ZZ2, Dr Theo de Jager van AgriSA, mnre Edward Vorster van Mahela Boerdery en Piet Warren van Gravelotte Wildprodusente oorhandig.

Deafening silence from the GTM... The Bulletin has failed to get the GTM to respond to written questions regarding the alleged purchase of 23 (actually 24) Samsung tablets from Game, as well as our enquiries in connection with the traffic plan for Tzaneen and a few other matters (as can be seen of the front page). We addressed the written enquiries to the municipal manager and the GTM’s official spokesman (Mr Neville Ndlala) on Wednesday last week. On Friday he called to explain that our e-mails had landed in his Junk Mail. On Monday we spoke again, when he told us that they will respond to our enquiries, but found it difficult to respond to the one regarding the tab-
lets, since it was not the truth. We invited him to say so in writing and to supply us with the facts, which he undertook to do. Ndlala called again on Tuesday to confirm the deadline and again we assured him that we would grant them a fair opportunity to respond, as long as it would be before 16:30 on Wednesday. He again confirmed that they would forward the relevant information. Susequent to that telephone call, which we have on record, we have not heard from the GTM or received any feedback. In the mean time we have been informed that the GTM actually bought 24 tablets from Game, but they first took deliv-
Sekororo protest about shopping malls About a thousand members of the community from various parts of Sekororo protested to put pressure on the government to speed up the construction of the shopping mall which they said would create jobs for local people. The community from Loraine in Sekororo said the government had been going at a slow pace ever since the process of building three malls started more than a year ago. The people took to the streets and blocked the main road to Tzaneen with burning tyres, trees and rocks. They also want the department of education to start building new classrooms at Khudu High school, because learning and teaching are disrupted during rains and bad weather. The roof of the school was destroyed by a storm in 2011. — Michael Sakuneka | michael@bulletin.us.com

In connection with our previous enquiries in 2012 regarding the traffic plan for Tzaneen, we have been informed by yet another party that it was a blatant lie to tell us that the plan has been drawn up and that final confirmation from the council was to follow. Three councillors from different political parties have assured us that no traffic plan has been submitted for council’s approval. — Francois Aucamp francois@bulletin.us.com

Dr Jan Truter Herv Kerk Letsitele
Die begroting Die begroting vir die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit se nuwe geldjaar is ter tafel gelê, deur ‘n burgemeester wat die indruk laat dat sy en haar span in hul skik is hiermee. Natuurlik sal hulle tevrede wees, want met omstrede uitgawes, soos vir salarisse, is hulle mos binne die perke wat deur die sentrale regering gestel word. Solank hulle binne dié reëls speel, is alles aanvaarbaar. Die sentrale regering stel egter ‘n swak voorbeeld, want hulle is die land se hoofverkwisters, dit is uit die sentrale regering (regerende party) se optrede dat korrupsie aanvaar word (veral as mens na hul kandidatelys vir die komende verkiesing kyk) en die sentrale regering weet net van besparing as dit die belastingbetalers betref. Dit is ons, die mense wat deur sweet die regering se beursie moet vul, wat moet bespaar — sodat daar genoeg is vir die staat in al sy vorms van regering om te mors of te laat verdwyn in selfverryking. Tzaneen se burgemeester droom oor Tzaneen wat teen die jaar 2030 ‘n stad moet wees. Sy moet egter pasop dat dit nie ‘n nagmerrie word nie, want soos infrastruktuur tans afgeskeep word, sal alles nuut gebou moet word nog lank voor 2030. Daar is geen verkeersplan vir Tzaneen nie (al beweer sommiges in die GTM daar is een), die dorp se rioolplaas leef op geleende tyd, die strate en sypaadjies verval, daar blyk geen plan vir die parke-afdeling te wees nie, bouregulasies word nie konsekwent toegepas nie (dink maar aan die ANC se nuwe streekshoofkantoor), gesondheidsregulasies word uiters selektief en diskriminerend toegepas, ensovoorts. Tzaneen is alles behalwe ‘n dorp wat goed bestuur word, met die oog op ‘n beter toekoms vir die inwoners.
Die mense hoor Let wel: Hulle sê nie so nie! • Die ou groot karnallie se groot belangstelling het begin by palms, toe skuif dit na beeste, volgende was dit hout en bome en deesdae is dit ingenieurswerk… • Die olifant se slaapplek is deesdae glo al hoe meer bedrywig, veral so van tien uur in die aand se kant. Dan sien mens kort rokkies, lang slap motors, beursies wat bult, paartjies wat stil-stil wegsluip na gerieflike liefdeshoekies… • Daar is nou ‘n ander geneuk met die dat die skouterrein nie meer deurnag so toeganklik is nie. Ou Bertman sal nou ‘n ander skelm vryplekkie moet gaan soek… • Wat is dit dan met die middeljarige manne, dié wat al sterk grys begin raak hier langs die slape, dat hulle so motorfietsmal is. Daar gaan staan en verskeur die man van die Ooste sy hele een been se spiere en senings en wie weet wat nog. Weens ‘n motorfiets wat nie eens beweeg het nie! Ai, ai, Mr J, jy moet versigtig wees. Maar Mr J is dapper en vat sy teenspoed lag-lag. Die mense hoor egter dit is ‘n perd van ‘n gans ander kleur met ‘n ander Heer op ‘n motorfiets, want die spier wat hy gaan skeur of verrek is nie so alledaags nie en dokters is maar bekommerd oor hoe dié sal herstel… • Daar broei iets nie herderlik nie tussen twee predikers en
dit kan maklik oorkook. Dit klink so baie na ‘n priesterlike turksvy. Maar die mense moenie rasie nie, daar’s hoop dat sake reggeruk sal word… • En as sake nie regkom nie, is daar glo hoop dat St Edward en die Mothering Mountains mense tot stilte kan aanspoor om nuwe hoop te vind... • Die mense hoor die dame wat vrou-alleen die GTM se begroting goed-/afkeur raak problematies, want sy is ‘n bedreiging vir die hoofleier (-leidster). Asof ta’ Helen nie genoeg moeilikheid het met die Doktor, die pasiënt, die president, die koukus, die boere, die plakkers, die plaasarbeiders, die hengelaars, die adjunkminister, die donateurs, die rooi barette en nog ‘n keer die president nie, kom krap die albino’s nou ook in haar slaai… • Die toppunt van onbeholpenheid is as ‘n man in jou Mahindra drie keer op dieselfde entjie pad — byna op een en dieselfde plek op die pad — vasval. Nie bietjie nie, nee, sommer so dat die Mahindra op sy pens lê en die wieletjies in die lug tol. Dis nie alle baristas wat in Formule 1 geskool is nie; of al in SuidAmerika aan daardie tydren ter tydrenne deelgeneem het nie. Nog bietjie oefen, Willem... • Ook onse mense praat nou baie oor die man en sy prosteses. Al hoe meer mense begin praat oor die prostesemaker...

Dit is nie ‘n vars reeks foto’s nie. Trouens, die voorval dateer terug na 2010, toe Durban ook deur erge vloedreëns ontwrig is. Ons het egter gedink die foto’s, wat destyds deur die Times gepubliseer is, is treffend en kan ons mense herinner aan hoeveel erger dit by ons kon gewees het (dink maar aan Lephalale wat vroeër dié week ‘n eiland was, afgesny van die buitewêreld).

In ons daaglikse gang beland ons soms onverwags in ontstellende en dreigende probleme. H O van Gilder vertel van `n werksman wat by `n bouprojek betrokke was en soms tot laataand moes werk. Op die kant van `n muur, etlike verdiepings hoog, verloor hy op ‘n keer sy balans en glip van die muur af. Hy kry egter reg om die kant van die muur met sy vingers vas te gryp. Daar hang hy. Onder is dit donker. As iemand hom tog net raaksien! Hy skreeu om hulp, maar sy stem word oordonder deur die gedreun van masjiene. Hy voel sy arms word lam en sy vingers dreig om hul greep op die muur se kant te verloor. Hy probeer bid, maar geen wonderwerk vind plaas nie. Uiteindelik glip sy lam vingers van hul greep op die muur los en met `n snik van ontsteltenis val hy — net drie duim ver. Hy land op `n steier wat al langs die muur opgerig was en wat hy in die donker nie kon sien nie. In ons daaglikse ervaringe en ook in ons geestelike belewinge, kom ons in situasies wanneer ons desperaat raak en voel ons moet met ons vingers vasklem aan wat ons het. Van Gilder skryf: “How like a lot of Christians! Conscious of their weakness and aware of dangers, are fearful, anxious and unhappy most of the time: yet underneath, all the while, are the everlasting arms of a faihful, loving and all-powerful Saviour — our Lord Jesus Christ, willing and able to save and assist us.” Is dit nie Jesus wat self in Matteus 14:27 gesê het: “Wees gerus, dit is Ek. Moenie bang wees nie!”

Whereto? John P Watson from Tzaneen writes by e-mail: Thank you for the way in which you condemned and rejected the taking back by Central Government of R1,3 billion from Limpopo. The fact that our provincial government is too maladroit to spend money given to them on a plate, is too sad for words. Whilst Limpopo’s service delivery problems are huge, the provincial government sit and don’t invest money in much needed services.
What I would like to know is: Can you tell us how this amount was supposed to have been spent? • Yes, we can disclose the following information regarding the unspent grant from Central Government: Limpopo Roads: R637,459m (R449,74m to Free State and R187,719m to Northern Cape); Limpopo Housing: R644m (R230m to Free State, R207,9m to Northern Cape, R32,1m to Western Cape, R57m to KZN and R117m to North West); Limpopo Library Services: R5,967m (R1,483m to Free State, R3m to Gauteng and R1,484m to Western Cape) — Publisher
Leuens Kewp Roos skryf op Bulletin se Facebook-blad: Ek wil my lyf “Vlieg” hou hier, en sê dat daar mense is wat leuens versprei oor die Goue Jare Tehuis vir bejaardes. Daarom sal ek graag hier wil sê (en ook nie omgee as dit publiseer word nie) dat ek die tehuis gereeld besoek, aangesien my skoonma reeds die afgelope 3 jaar daar bly. Ek het gesien ‘n groepie bejaardes sit op een hopie en takel die plek verskriklik af, maar het my nie
regtig aan die “oumensgeite” gesteur nie, daar die goed waaroor hulle gekla het nie vir my sin gemaak het nie. My bevinding van die tehuis is, die bejaardes kry goeie, gesonde en smaaklik voorbereide etes. Mense soos my skoonma, wat haarself nie kan help nie, nie kan loop nie, ensovoorts, word met liefde versorg. Die plek word skoongemaak en is netjies. Die personeel is bekwaam en vriendelik. Ek weet daar is instansies, boere van die omgewing en sommer mense wat omgee wat donasies maak, en glo my, dis baie nodig, want dit is nie goedkoop om sulke instansies aan die gang te hou nie. Ek beveel aan dat mense vergelykings tref, dan sal hulle sien dat die tehuis, in ‘n rustige omgewing dalk een van die beter oorde vir ons ouers is. Onthou dat net soos met jonger mense, jy altyd ook tussen die ouer garde mense kry wat met niks tevrede is nie! Moenie oordeel op hoorsê voordat julle nie ondersoek gedoen het nie. Van ‘n baie tevrede skoondogter! • Kan ook wees dat waar ‘n rokie trek, ‘n vuurtjie brand. Ons het inligting waarop ons nou kommentaar moet kry, wat daarop dui dat alles dalk nie so kosjer is by dié tehuis nie — Uitgewer

African treasures
In today’s article, as part of the Bulletin’s exclusive series about senior citizens of our area who have made a major contribution towards establishing a vibrant local community, Sue Ettmayr introduces Mr Jürgen Witt, the Curator of the little known Tzaneen Museum.
A nation without a past has no future and a nation should preserve cultures that are under threat of disappearing. Jürgen Witt is fighting for this and for the preservation of the Tzaneen Museum. He says that neither the present nor previous governments are in the slightest interested in respecting African culture. Witt (83) still walks with purpose albeit with a walking stick. He’s had a sixty year passion for vanishing and current African culture in the form of art. The Greater Tzaneen Municipality established the Tzaneen Museum in 1995. Witt was made Curator and his life’s collection is housed in the Museum. He gave a brief outline of his life. His forefathers came from Danzig (now Gdansk), in the once Prussian heartland. The family estate was confiscated by the League of Nations after WW1 and became the property of Poland. Witt was born in Charlottenburg near Berlin. Under East German rule he was prohibited from tertiary education. He went to Sweden in 1947 where he met his German wife, Hilda. He visited South Africa and Tzaneen for the first time in 1952. He wanted to see his uncle who had a tea plantation in Tanzania. The uncle lost the plantation and returned to Germany, after trying in vain to recoup the farm from the British Gov-
ernment. Hilda, who had been studying lanThe Witt family moved to Tzaneen in 1960 guages in Spain, came out to join him.

The Tzaneen Museum on Agatha Street is an unobtrusive, small threeroomed musty house in front of the Library and the GTM. It houses some two thousand ethnological artefacts from South African tribes as well as other parts of Africa. The Museum is regarded as one of the best museums in the country and deserves far greater recognition and resources. The building is in need of renovations and the GTM needs to restore the landline and pay the Curator a tad more to run the place. The late Advocate Henri Francois Junot from Pretoria helped finance the construction of the Museum veranda. Junot used to visit his god daughter Ms Julie McMahon often. McMahon lives on a farm on the Cheerio Road outside the village of Haenertsburg. The veranda now houses the Tsonga fairy tale figures. Each group tells a story and this keeps the verbal literature alive. Witt has spent years recording these tales on tape and in writing. His assistant, Ms Florence Tshibeyahope, helps him in the retelling of the stories. He wants to make children aware of their heritage and hopes the treasures will remain in Tzaneen and in South Africa.

According to the State Veterinarian in Tzaneen, animal vaccinations against rabies, primarily transmitted through a bite from an infected animal, are an annual legal requirement to protect animals from infections and are freely available at state veterinary offices. Three other cases of rabies, which also affect human beings and can result in death within five days of infection, have also been identified in the Mopani and Vhembe districts recently.

Werk aan ‘n pypleiding in King Edwardrylaan het inwoners Vrydag weer sonder waarskuwing waterloos (en moedeloos) gelaat.
Water sommer net so toegedraai Dit reën die afgelope weke deftig in Tzaneen, maar verlede week was besighede en wonings langs King Edward-rylaan sonder waarskuwing waterloos. Munisipale werkspanne swoeg reeds sedert verlede jaar in die gebied om ‘n waterpypleiding te vervang en dié werk staan nou einde se kant toe. Hulle word egter verplig om verbruikers in die omgewing te waarsku wanneer die watertoevloei vir ‘n nuwe aansluiting afgeskakel
word. Verskeie ondernemings, soos ‘n tandarts, plekke wat kos voorberei en al die geboue se wasgeriewe en toilette is van die water afhanklik. Die gebied se DA-raadslid, me René Pohl, sê weens ‘n geldtekort word daar oral besparings gedoen. Dit was egter nie nodig vir die werkspanne om op plig en goeie maniere te bespaar nie. Sy sal op die voorval ingaan sodat ‘n herhaling daarvan verhoed kan word.

Oubal is ons plaaslike koerante baie dankbaar dat hulle ons weekliks so op die hoogte hou van sportgebeure in ons omgewing, veral wat skolesport(s) betref. Dit hou ons pensioenarisse ingelig oor wie is nou eintlik wie in die dieretuin, en natuurlik wie is níé! Dit lyk vir Oubal die skoleberigte word deur die onderskeie skole self geskryf en dan deur die koerante in ‘n mindere of meerdere mate geredigeer. In die geval van “mindere” sodanig dat monstruositeite soos “konsolasiedrie” heel dikwels deurglip, wanneer vertroosting op die skrywer se gemoed was! ‘Tja, Oubal het ook al onder die besef gekom dat die berigte meestal eie beuelblasery is, daarom het hy geleer om tussen die lyne te lees om agter die ware kap van die byl te kom. Dikwels is dit dan ook ‘n geval dat daar maar min wind was om mee te blaas! As daar byvoorbeeld ‘n skaakberig op die sportblad verskyn, dan weet Oubal daar het in terme van regte sport nie veel by die skool
Merensky’s golf organiser and coach, Stefan Nawrattel, won a trophy and a cash prize in the Captain’s Singles Knock-Out Championships at Tzaneen Country Club. He played against Gerhard Smit and won 2-1. About forty club members participated in the event. A golf tour to the World of Golf in Johannesburg will take place later this month. Seen here are Mr Green van Rensburg handing over the trophy to Nawrattel.
Tussen die lyne! gebeur nie. Oubal is self ‘n kranige skaakspeler, maar dis nou eenmaal nie vir hom sport nie. Skaak is ‘n intellektuele oefening wat by Omar Shariff se skaakrubriek, sudoku en die blokkiesraaisel in ‘n koerant hoort! Oubal weet ook as daar in besonderhede verslag gedoen word van een rakbiespan van ‘n skool se wedstryd en die ander word net so in die verbygaan sonder tellings genoem , dan is die kanse goed dat die ander spanne nie juis waffers vertoon het nie. Die blouskool oorkant die brug se rakbieverslag verlede week was byvoorbeeld so! Oubal het opgelet dat die rooiskool se hokkieverslag op dieselfde manier na net een span se uitslag verwys het, met ‘n beskrywing

Deano Kruger het met twee Saterdag het Letaba 1 gewys dat doelskoppe geslaag. dit nie ydele woorde was nie, toe hulle op Conway teen Pietersburg Dorp te staan gekom het en met 3414 baas was. Na al die baie reën het die gladde bal en ‘n steeds effense nat veld dit onmoontlik gemaak om aanskoulike rugby te speel. Maar harde rugby is nie deur die toestand van die veld of die bal verhinder nie. Voorlangs het die twee flanke, Wikus en Marnus Steyn, die veld vol gespeel en die haker, JP Scharwz, het die oog met sy kragtige stormlopies gevang. Marnus Labuschagne het ‘n stroom goeie lynstaanbesit vir Letaba gewen.

van doele wat deur ‘n ander span aangeteken is en ook sonder vermelding van tellings. Oubal dink hy kan sonder vrees vir teenspraak aflei dat dit uiters beroerd gegaan het daar! ‘Tja, Oubal sien dit het goed gegaan met die blouskool se hokkie, asook die rooiskool se rakbie en netbal, want hulle sê dit vir jou duidelik en reguit. Dit was egter die rooiskool se verstommende netbaltellings wat Oubal laat regop sit en kennis neem het. Die deel waar hulle sê hulle “het begin waar hulle verlede jaar opgehou het”, het Oubal genoop om te gaan navorsing doen. Danksy ArthurIngelsman se media-speurvermoë kry Oubal toe ‘n berig onder oë wat laat verlede jaar in die Jip-gedeelte van die GAD verskyn het. Daarvolgens het die rooi versies tweede geëindig na Afrikaans Hoër Meisieskool in die Tuks-Fast5-reeks, toe hulle met 25-21 in die eindstryd verloor het. Die berig praat tereg ook met groot lof van die versies wat op pad na die eindstryd met verskeie vooraanstaande skole
afgereken het. ‘Tja, Oubal is beïndruk met wat julle tussen die lyne regkry, en voel homself verplig om verdere navorsing te doen om agter die kap van jul sukses te kom. Konsoleer julle daarin dat Oubal ‘n man van sy woord is en hou gerus maar hierdie spasie dop! “In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” — George Orwell
• Die versoeking is net té groot om nie hier ‘n kommentaar by te voeg nie. Skole, voor die voet, skryf asof hulle byvoeglike naamwoorde uitgevind, gepatenteer en nou die alleenreg daarop het as hulle hul berigte skryf en aan koerante lewer. Tweedens: ons het juis verlede week onderaan ‘n sportberig van die een skool gesê dat geen telling verskaf is nie. Dit was die begin en ons gaan dit voortaan gereeld doen, as ‘n skool nie die tellings gee nie (gewoonlik wanneer hulle verloor het), want nadat ons al jare lank vra dat alle tellings gegee word, word dit steeds dikwels nie gedoen nie. Ten slotte moet ons ook darem sê dat ons baie dankbaar is vir die nuus wat die skole aan ons lewer, want ‘n klein gemeenskapskoerant het gewoon nie die mannekrag om die baie skole se nuus met eie personeel te dek nie — Uitgewer
