Ramp dreig
met misdaad in Lim
There can be no doubt, Tzaneen remains the breeding ground for Limpopo’s beauties. Last week Katryn Barwise, Miss Humanity SA 2014 hosted the Miss Mokopane Crossing’14 youth development pageant in Mokopane. Many girls from all over Limpopo entered for the event and helped with a food drive for Centre
Of Hope, an orphanage and disabled centre in Mokopane. In the age group 13-15 Ronel Homu from Tzaneen was the clear winner. She is seen here, second from left, with second princess Kabelo Lekgoathi from Polokwane and first princess Mikateko Nkuna, also from Tzaneen.

In this edition, there will be no smirking, egotistical midget called Richard Hammond, with a very out dated choker around his neck, drooling over the latest Porsche, which nearly nobody can afford in this, prime-rate-hasjust-gone-up-again-twenty-five-basis-points Godforsaken country! There will be no middle aged James May who has his shirts made by his nearly blind mother, jerseys knitted by the Salvation Army and his hair done by his completely blind and possibly already dead grandmother, trying to drive around in an outdated Volvo Estate. And, by the grace of God, there will be no super bellied, grey haired Jeremy Clarkson, laughing at his own attempted humour and getting stuck, again, in an even darker shade of grey, wet and misty paddock, somewhere in Her Majesty’s back yard, in an ever so ageing and typically oil leaking Range Rover. So help us! There will also not be any star, bright or dim, driving around our track in a reasonably priced car. That would not be because this newspaper, or even this country, does not have any stars, again, bright or dim. We have
What interested the author, however, was to know which car those prospective car buyers, who needed a car, had the money to buy a car, but did not have the faintest idea what to buy, actually bought. The above mentioned, diligently removed evidence, did in fact, prove it to be a white car! But not any white car! A white car from a Japanese manufacturer, who used to claim that, “Alles loop reg, altyd reg”! The conclusion of the research was then, in the author’s mind, that those who know nothing about cars, and are indecisive about which car to buy, will have so much trouble with their cars, they will “altyd loop”! And on that bomb shell, it is time to end, but not before we have introduced the author! Some say, he once made Chuck Norris cry! Some say, he regularly makes his readers cry! Some say, he doesn’t know what he is blabbering about! Some said, on the last page of this news paper, that he could even be a girl, but all we know is, he is called… The Vlieg!
plenty! It would simply be because this country does not have any reasonably priced cars! Which brings us to... the news! Despite all his attempts to verify and substantiate this news by searching available printed and electronic literature, the company involved seems to have been very diligent at removing all evidence of what is about to be re-announced. Therefore the news could possibly be made off as hearsay, although the author will claim that “blah-blah-blah”! Research has shown that there are all kinds of prospective car buyers. For example, there are those who always buy from the same manufacturer, either because they are satisfied with the product and service or they are loyal or they are inherently resistant to change. Or, for example, there are those who cannot resist new technology, and need to have the most modern or flashy vehicle — especially if the Jones’s have it. Then there are those sensible few, who actually look at their need, the price, safety, the mileage and other important specifications.

Opgeskorte vonnis vir diefstal-vrou Die vrou wat R350 000 by Food Lovers Market in Tzaneen gesteel het, het na ‘n pleitooreenkoms verpligte tronkstraf vrygespring. Valencia Jacobs, ‘n ma van drie minderjarige kinders, het skuld erken op ‘n klag van diefstal. Sy is deur streeklanddros A Lamminga gevonnis tot agt jaar tronkstraf, opgeskort vir vyf jaar, op voorwaarde dat sy haar nie weer in dié tydperk skuldig maak aan diefstal of bedrog nie. Sy moet ook maandeliks R5 542,37 aan haar vorige werkgewer terugbetaal, om die diefstalgeld te delg. Sy het reeds R23 000 verlede jaar aan die eienaars van Food Lovers Market teruggegee en moet die res van die geld voor die sewende van elke maand oor die volgende vyf jaar aan hulle betaal. Die hof het in sy uitspraak ter versagting in ag geneem
dat sy die diefstal beken het en haar volle samewerking in die ondersoek gegee het. Sy het ook geen vorige veroordelings nie. Sy is op die oomblik werkloos en haar man is die enigste broodwinner in die huishouding. Mnr Christie Hattingh, mede-eienaar van Food Lovers Market, sê hulle is tevrede met die uitspraak. “Ons het baie meer geld as dit verloor, maar kon net regstreekse bewyse van die betrokke bedrag lewer.” Hy vermoed Jacobs en haar gesin woon in Nelspruit. Die hof het bepaal dat die geld maandeliks in ‘n spesifieke bankrekening betaal word, tot die skuld vereffen is. As sy net een betaling mis of laat is daarmee, sal sy onmiddellik die gevangenisstraf moet uitdien, so daar hang ‘n dodelike swaard oor haar kop vir die volgende sestig maande.

Dubbele eer vir Merensky
Mnr Magnus Steyn, die hoof van Merensky, ontvang die kultuurprys van me Karen Stofberg namens die borg, die FAK
gorieë, ten einde skole en leerkragte te vereer. Merensky het in twee kategorieë na die nasionale ronde deurgedring. In die kategorie vir skooltoekennings was die twee finaliste vir die “Bevordering van die Afrikaanse kultuur deur middel van die uitvoerende kunste” Merensky en die Hoërskool Witteberg van die Vrystaat. Merensky het die toekenning as die SAOU se kultuurskool in die land ontvang. Die beoordelingspan was besonder beïndruk met Merensky se diversiteit en gehalte van hul prestasies op kultuurvlak. In die kategorie “Klaskamerpraktyk
Hoërskole” was die twee finaliste ‘n wetenskaponderwyser van die Hoërskool Diamantveld in die Fransie le Roux Noordkaap en me Fransie le Roux, ‘n Afrikaans onderwyser van Merensky. Le Roux is as die nasionale wenner aangewys. Albei 2013 se topmatriekkandidate in Limpopo vir Afrikaans Huistaal én Afrikaans eerste addisionele taal het uit Le Roux se klas gekom. Aangesien 3 727 skole in die land SAOU-lede is, is die prestasies van Merensky des te meer merkwaardig.

Indian residences targeted Another daylight attack has been made on a house belonging to an Indian family in Tzaneen’s King Edward Street within two weeks. However, nothing was robbed, nobody was injured and the robbers fled empty handed. The owner of the premises at 20 King Edward Street, Mr Ishag Gorakh, said his son, Suhail, left the house just before 12:00 to attend the regular Friday prayer meeting at the local Mosque in Agatha Street, when the culprits slipped through the sliding gate behind him. Personnel in the residence were immediately told to lock up all entrances to the house. After the intruders could make no entry, they fled on foot. The police was called and their response was remarkably fast, but the attackers were gone by then. Gorakh said the perpetrators were obviously looking for money, as he was part of a big organisation handling lots of cash. “We never carry cash home.” The previous incident happened just down the road from No 20, where the robbers (probably from the same crowd) scored R90 and two cell phones from a domestic worker two weeks ago. The flat is also occupied by Indian people working for the same company. Gorakh agreed that there was an increase in people frequenting the area with stolen supermarket trolleys and cell phones working overtime. “This quiet and peaceful residential area of Tzaneen is developing into a hot spot for criminals.”

comment about the latest situation of crime in Tzaneen police spokesman Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe said that “crime in Tzaneen is stable at the moment”. People say it is hard to understand how crime could be “stable at the moment”, when 99 more criminal suspects from the nearby areas got arrested within the past week. People also say it is not clear what is meant by “stable” and the SAPS shouldn’t use or hide behind terminology that doesn’t make sense.
Thugs behind bars Police apprehended 22 thugs who had compromised other people’s safety in the Ritavi area over the past week. Thirteen people involved in public drinking, attempted murder, housebreaking and theft were also put behind bars. Nine people were arrested for arson, assault and malicious damage to property.
Reckless motorists caught Over the past week Tzaneen police caught 22 motorists for disobeying the safety of other road users, and 77 more for their offensive behaviour. Police caught another 46 people involved in traffic offences, shoplifting,
fraud, assault, crimen injuria, housebreaking and theft. At least seventeen people suspected of child neglect, murder, illegal gambling, possessing dangerous weapons, malicious damage to property and suspected stolen property were arrested. Elsewhere 36 perpetrators were held for prostitution, drinking in public, liquor offences and possessing counterfeit goods.
Safeguard children Tzaneen police urge members of the public to safeguard their children while shopping. This comes after a couple aged 35 and 45 was arrested on Saturday after leaving and neglecting their two-month-old toddler in a locked vehicle in Tzaneng Mall’s parking area. It is alleged that a security guard on watch alerted the police. The suspects were traced and arrested in a shop in the mall. The suspects briefly appeared on Monday in a Tzaneen Magistrate’s Court. They were reportedly released on a warning. “Members of the public are warned that child neglect is a punishable criminal offence and perpetrators will face the law,” said police spokesman Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe.

Our Opinion Fiday 25 July 2014
Dr Jan Truter Ned Herv Kerk Letsitele
In good company We are happy to find ourselves in good company. In fact, the company is excellent — none less than retired judge and former Gauteng judge president Bernard Ngoepe, a son of Limpopo who achieved so much and became respected for his exemplary conduct as a citizen and a senior judge. We are regularly accused by local goverment institutions, especially the Greater Tzaneen Municipality, of waisting energy fighting against small matters like hawkers, collapsing infrastructure, lack of discipline and an absence of political will to act against people who claim that they are entitled to whatever they deem fit to do. Ngoepe last week added his voice to the outcry against those who attempt to undermine the public protector. In his speech, he quistioned why SA, with its acclaimed constitution, continued to suffer high levels of inequality, crime, corruption and a disregard for other people’s property. “If we, indeed, do have the best constitution in the world, how come somebody just finds your piece of land and puts up a shack there and says: ‘Unless you offer me alternative accommodation, I am not moving’?” He said that during a recent visit to his home town of Polokwane, he could not find parking because the parking bays had been taken over by street vendors. “People think the constitution gives them rights without limitations; they think it means that you must get everything for nothing. You don’t pay for water, you must not pay for electricity. It cannot mean that,” he said. Exactly, we say.

Sluk maar swaar Wilco Niemandt van Tzaneen skryf per e-pos: Jul artikel op bladsy 6 van 11 Julie verwys. Ek reageer graag daarop. Die probleem rondom die verkeersdramas met trokke en ander voertuie op die Magoebaskloofroete is ‘n tameletjie wat ons lank gaan bybly. Glo my as ek noem dat my hoofbesigheid toegespits is op drywers en drywergedrag (driver behaviour). Ek het reeds ‘n opleidingsgids geskryf, wat aan Minister Peters voorgelê is, sonder dat sy enigsins een woord daarop gereageer het. Die gids is ook geskryf in medewerking met ‘n baie bekende hoëprofiel prokureur, wie se insae en ondersteuning goud werd is. Ek is bo en behalwe ‘n MHB (HR) konsultant ook ‘n konsultant vir DriveRisk wat landwyd (en ook internasionaal) drywergedrag identifiseer en positief oplos. Die probleem sal nie opgelos word tot die Minister en haar regering daadwerklik iets gaan doen behalwe om Imbizo’s te reël nie. Haar toespraak ‘Easter Weekend Report’ is lagwekkend en alhoewel sy hamer op die hoë sterftesyfer is sy steeds trots daarop dat dit effe laer is as die vorige twee jaar. Sy prys haarself en haar kollegas asook die verkeersowerhede vir hul puik diens. Net jammer ons, die gewone gehoorsame publiek, ervaar nie hierdie positiwiteit nie. Gaan kyk gerus op my FB blad — Driver Behaviour — na my inskrywing na verlede Sondag se gemors op die N1. Intussen is dit met ‘n redelike oop gemoed dat die private logistieksektor én die vervoersektor ons benadering met groot positiwiteit aanvaar en van ons hulp gebruik maak. Ons sal maar hierdie olifant happie vir happie eet, maar solank korrupsie en blindheid van die owerhede daar is, sal ons swaar sluk aan elke happie.
Letters | Briewe Saai verwarring Oud-onderwyseres van Tzaneen skryf per e-pos: Dit lyk of die Bulletin se mense hulle soms nie steur aan wat om hulle aangaan nie en ‘n eie koers inslaan. Dit is jammer dat dit lyk of daar ook nie genoegsaam respek is vir reëls van die taal, amptelike terme, beskrywings ens nie. Julle skryf gereeld van leerlinge in plaas van leerders, leerlingraad in stede van studenteraad of Uitvoerende Komitee, verste links en nie heel links nie, eerste as dit eintlik heel eerste moet lees en so gaan jule op julle eie baan aan. Bulletin is ‘n goeie koerantjie, maar julle kan nie die pas aangee nie. Kyk om julle en kyk na ander koerante. Julle saai verwarring. Ek bedoel dit goed. • Dankie vir u kommentaar en “goeie bedoeling”. Leerders is ‘n mismaaksel van ‘n regering wat alles wou verander ter wille van verandering en in die proses allerhande taalmonsters geskep het. Wat vir ‘n ding is ‘n leerder? Dus dan nou ook vakleerder in plaas van vakleerling, leerder-vlieënier in plaas van leerlingvlieënier, ensovoorts. Vir kennisname: die benaming leerder is weer amptelik deur die onderwysowerheid geskrap en dit is nou amptelik weer leerling. Die skole bly egter agter om dit weer te gebruik. En van wanneer af is skoolkinders studente? Wat is jong mense wat aan tersiêre instellings studeer dan nou as die skoolkinders (leerlinge) studente is? Skole moet nie kla oor kinders wat te groot vir hul skoene geword het as die skole hul skooljeugdigheid van hulle wegneem deur hulle tot studente te verhef en hulle onnodig ryp te wil druk nie.

Die Fisika gebruik ‘n dik driehoekige stuk glas, naamlik ʼn prisma, om dispersie en refraksie te laat plaasvind. Dispersie is die verspreiding van wit lig in kleure. Refraksie beteken dat ‘n straal wit lig by die een kant van die prisma ingeskyn word, waarna die wit lig dan in die 7 kleure van die reënboog opgebreek en dan so aan die anderkant van die prisma uitgestraal word. Die teendeel is ook waar. As die spektrum van kleure by ʼn prisma ingeskyn word, kom daar aan die anderkant van die prisma net ʼn straal wit lig uit! In ʼn sekere sin is Christus ons prisma. Al die verskillende kleure van ons sonde val op Jesus en as God die Vader deur Jesus Christus na ons kyk, sien Hy net die wit lig uit ons lewens skyn. Ons is in Christus voor God geregverdig en erfgename van die ewige lewe. Die bloed van Jesus Christus kom en reinig ons van alle ongeregtigheid. Die bloed van Jesus Christus kom en was ons witter as sneeu. Dis die wonder van die geloof in Jesus Christus. Die Bybel leer ons, dat ons gered sal word, as ons in Christus glo en alles aanvaar, wat Hy uit genade aan ons bied. Christus is ons voorspraak by die Vader. Wanneer God die Vader na ons kyk, sien Hy nie ons veelkleurige sondes raak nie, nee, Christus staan as’t ware tussen ons en die Vader en sy offer beteken, dat God die Vader ons as gereinig, skoon en sonder sonde sien en liefhet. Jesaja 1:17: “Kom tog, laat ons die saak met mekaar uitmaak, sê die Here: Al was julle skarlakenrooi van sonde, julle sal wit word soos sneeu. Al was julle purperrooi, julle sal wit word soos wol!”

Do as you wish Concerned Senior Citizen from Haenertsburg writes by e-mail: In the land of South Africa there are many different claims. It is interesting to note that the owner of the business, Erf number 991 at the corner of Rissik Street and Rush Street, Haenertsburg, has laid claim not only,to the legal pedestrian area but also to the Stop Sign ! This sign is now clearly within the new boundary. Perhaps drivers not stopping at this newly owned Stop sign will be liable to pay any traffic fine to the now new owner! Unfortunately the norm nowadays appears to be do as you wish to do; it is of no consequence if what you do effects others! • Y Kotze van Tzaneen: U brief sal volgende week geplaas kan word, aangesien ons briewe plaas in die datumvolgorde wat dit ontvang word. • Tollie van Tzaneen: Die kommentaar op die Beesmisdam op Bulletin se Facebok is deur iemand van buite en nie van Bulletin of een van ons personeel nie.

Mr Bisse and Ms Denise Reed
25 July 2014

Watching farming trends was his forte
Our area is home to some of the most interesting and fascinating people who can tell gripping stories about the past — and how they landed in this part of the world. Mr Bisse Reed and his wife Denise are two such people. Bulletin’s Sue Boor visited the Reeds in their “new” home in the Macadamia Retirement Village in Tzaneen, where they opened their hearts and minds to her and told her about their migration to our area. Over the past year we have introduced 41 interesting settler families of Mopani in an exclusive series about the “architects” of Mopani. We stopped the series a few weeks ago, but we will continue to introduce interesting people of early days from time to time. And we still salute them as pioneers of the Lowveld.
The Reed family—founders of this wellknown and highly respected pioneers of Limpopo’s Lowveld — trekked down steep slopes by ox wagon from Lydenburg in Mpumalanga to the Mopani area in 1892. They settled on the farm Mooihoek in Mooketsi which is still in the family today. Mr Bisse (pronounced Bis) Reed was born at Elim hospital in 1940. He was the only son and had six older sisters. He recounts his life with the help of his wife Denise. Speaking from their home at Macadamia Retirement Village in Tzaneen Bisse says that they grew carnations and statice at Mooihoek. Early in the morning they would cut the flowers, put them in buckets and take them to the siding at Brandboontjies in Mooketsi, to be taken
to the Johannesburg market. Bisse’s schooling was at the College of the Little Flower in Polokwane. His father turned to tomatoes and the biggest, most scented pawpaws loaded with pips. Bisse eventually took over Mooihoek from his father. Bisse loved adventurous sport of any kind and he took up flying, got his pilot’s licence and had his own Piper Cherokee 180. Denise was born in Krugersdorp (Gauteng) but grew up outside Polokwane. She attended St Pius Convent in what has since become the capital of Limpopo. Her matric dance partner couldn’t make it and Bisse was her blind date for the evening. They had a lovely evening — but Bisse had a girlfriend at the time! Bisse and Denise didn’t see each other for another two years. One morning he arrived on her parents’ doorstep. Denise was hardly dressed when her sister came rushing in to tell her who was calling. They dated and got married at the Catholic Cathedral in Polokwane and have been together ever since (for 53 years). Once married, Denise took over all the administrative farm work so that Bisse could be free to farm. A heavy drought set in and the borehole water wasn’t enough. Reed, a brilliant businessman, saw the writing on the wall and changed track. He stopped the pawpaws and then the
tomatoes and turned to Brahman cattle and poultry. The couple went to Texas in America several times to buy cattle from various breeders. The Brahmans were extremely popular and an up and coming breed. There were more grey Brahmans so Reed decided to go for something different and opted for the red Brahmans. He built it up into a brilliant stud of 150 pedigreed Brahmans. They took the best ones to shows around the country. At the same time, the Reed couple was producing eggs called Best Hen Eggs. They had 18,000 laying hens. There were three bakkies with drivers that delivered eggs throughout the Province. Reed phased out the eggs to allow smaller farmers into the market and entered the then lucrative prickly pear market. By this stage their eldest, Doug, had finished his veterinary science degree and joined them on Mooihoek. The couple had already made trips to Israel and Mexico to investigate the prickly pear market. Reed then sold all the Brahmans and went in for Nguni cattle. Brahman had become

very popular and there were huge costs involved in showing the cattle. Nguni are beautiful, indigenous and hardy. The Reeds moved to Macadamia Retirement Village eleven years ago and their son now has a top Nguni stud. The couple also has two daughters, one in Kimberley and the other in Cape Town, and ten grandchildren.

Grader drivers doing shoddy work Despite improving gravel roads during funerals, GTM grader operators are doing shoddy (incomplete) work by ignoring instructions oof supervisors. Residents in most of the Greater Tzaneen Municipality’s 125 villages are crying foul on what they call incomplete work done by grader drivers who are often sent to upgrade their roads. People say they are often told by
grader drivers that they feared losing their jobs if the machines break down. It is alleged that the graders are working without being monitored and that instead of making the roads accessible for motorists, they leave rocks and debris in the roads. Residents have now spoken to the GTM to ensure that during their programme of upgrading streets in villages, they must ensure that
whoever will be working on the projects must be strictly monitored. GTM Spokesperson Neville Ndlala said they were not aware of the situation and he promised that they would as from now make sure that grader operators are strictly monitored, to ensure that they do their jobs to the best of their abilities. — Michael Sakuneka michael@bulletin.us.com

On its final day of school for the quarter, Letaba School for the Disabled honoured its athletes for successfully participating in the 2014 Nedbank National Championships for the Physically Disabled. Their medals and certificates were officially handed to them during a short celebration. Representing Limpopo with four other schools in the province, the young athletes travelled to the Western Cape earlier this year and came back with a total of
eleven medals: one bronze, two silver and eight gold. Among the learners, Rachel Selopyane (21) — an alumni of the school — and Mahlatsi Malatji (16) were also given their special awards from the Limpopo Department of Sports, Art and Recreation. These awards were for their excellent performances in athletics during the year. The department crowned the learners sportswoman and sportsman of the year respectively. — Joy Mojela joy@bulletin.us.com

Windfall for matric achiever After achieving six distinctions in matric last year, Dzunisani Nyoni (19) was awarded R10 000 by his former school, DZJ Mtebula High School, in Nkowankowa. Every year, DZJ Mtebula High School awards R10 000 to matric learners who achieve at least six distinctions in their final results. Nyoni, who currently studies Actuarial Science at the University of Cape Town, achieved distinctions in Mathematics, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Geography, CAT and Xitsonga Home Language and was the top learner in Nkowankowa Circuit’s Class of 2013. He decided to study Actuarial
Science because, said he, “there is a shortage of black actuaries in the country.” The nineteen-year-old, who added that he chose the University of Cape Town because it is the best university in the country, says after his family greatly supported him through his studies, he plans on first doing something nice for them with the money that he will earn. His advice to the class of 2014 is that what works best is to work consistently, even when it is not easy. “Working smart is about gradual consistent work. They should not wait to binge-study the day before the exam,” he said. — Joy Mojela

MediCinic Tzaneen celebrated Mandela Day in a very special and dedicated way with kindness being shown to some elderly people. They performed free cataract removal procedures. Dr Shaun Thompson (Ophthalmologist) did the procedures and dr Johan Homan was the anaesthetist. Theatre packs and lenses were sponsored by ALCON Pharmaceuticals and more than R15 000 was donated by MediClinic Tzaneen’s resident doctors, to make the project possible. ENA Suzan Maakana, dr Homan and dr Thompson are seen here with Mr M C Shikwambana, one of the patients who were oprated on.
‘n “Ou bekende” in Tzaneen is terug in die Laeveld en dié swendelaar teer steeds op die goegelowigheid van niksvermoedende mense. Hy “werk” onder twee name: Koos Bergman, soms Gert Bergman. Bergman het pas ‘n winkelier in Makhado gevang en die skade beloop so R50 000! Sy werkwyse is bekend: iemand besoek ‘n winkel/besigheid en maak seker dat die mense in die winkel weet dat die “iemand” daar was. Hy kry ‘n naam of name van winkelsassistente, na wie hy dan op die naam verwys as hy bel om iets te bestel. Dan kom die versoek om die bestelling êrens af te lewer, sodra bewys van betaling deur elektroniese oorplasing van die geld bevestig is. In die jongste geval is die goed in Pretoria by ‘n Caltex-vulstasie aan ‘n verteenwoordiger van Bergman gelewer. Maar... die bewys van die oorplasing was ‘n vervalsing en daar is geen geld in die winkelier se bankrekening gestort nie.

Mr Neil Haarhoff (the expedition leader) was joined by Riaan and Kirsten Eastes, Sarah Pogrund, Nicola Bourdillon, Jean du Toit, Michael van Zyl and Richard Southwood.

It was very cold and finally after more than six hours (stopping every hour for a quick break to eat and drink) the group arrived at Stella point! There, they witnessed the most magnificent sunrise ever! Some members of the party were affected by the altitude at this stage — not surprising, as this was now at 5 739 m above sea-level.

Perdespring kry nou groot Viertrekrit eindig in tragedie aftrek in Tzaneen ‘n Jong man van Tzaneen is Saterdagnag in Agatha dood en sy vriend ernstig beseer toe hul viertrekvoertuig in ‘n plantasie omgeslaan het. Hulle was vermoedelik op ‘n brandpatrollie toe die ongeluk gebeur het. Mnr Ferdie Labuschagne is op die toneel dood en sy vriend Richard Bouwer is ure lank onder die voertuig vasgekeer, voor reddingswerkers die toneel bereik het. ‘n Span van Agatha Safety and Security het ure lank na die wrak gesoek, nadat Bouwer daarin kon slaag om sy broer per
selfoon te bel. Die plek van die ongeluk was in ruwe omstandighede en Bouwer moes ‘n hele ent na ‘n viertrekvoertuig gedra word, voor hulle hom na ‘n wagtende ambulans kon kry. Hy is in die hospitaal deur personeel van ER24 gestabiliseer, voor hy per heliopter na ‘n hospitaal in Pretoria oorgeplaas is. Hy word behandel vir verskeie inwendige beserings en ‘n gebreekte pelvis. Labuschagne is gister vanuit die NG Kerk in Tzaneen begrawe.

Die Tzaneen Equestrian Centre op die Deerparkpad het Saterdag sy eerste perdespringbyeenkoms gehou. Dit was volgens die eienaar, mnr David Pieterse, ‘n dawerende sukses, met minstens veertig ruiters van alle ouderdomme wat deelgeneem het. Hulle het gewissel van beginners tot gevorderde ruiters en het gekom van Hoedspruit, Phalaborwa,

Letsitele se Kersmark
Vanjaar word die vyfde Kerskuiermark aangebied en die komitee wat net uit dames bestaan, met Anneri Vorster as voorsitter, werk reeds hard om die dag weer ‘n groot sukses te maak. Die doel van die Kerskuiermark is om mense en spesifiek kinders in nood finansieel by te staan. Die afgelope twee jaar se winste het in geheel hiervoor gegaan. So maak Letsitele
ook ‘n verskil in hul direkte omgewing en selfs tot in Tzaneen. Die Kerskuiermark is nie die gewone skoustalletjie of vlooimark nie. Elke uitstaller word vooraf gekeur en so maak hulle seker dat daar eksklusiewe produkte te koop is vir almal — vrouens,mans, kinders, oud en jonk. Heleen de Kock hanteer die NG Kerk se engelfabriek en die vrouens in die gemeente is reeds besig om die mooiste handgemaakte produkte en lekernye voor te berei. Vanjaar se tema is “Somerkersfees”. Karen van Rooyen help maak als mooi. Daar gaan weer ‘n teetuin wees met sout en soet — die bekende dadelkoek en sjokoladekoek, asook heerlike Quiche en nog meer. Irma van Rooyen en Marie Muller beplan reeds aan die middagete. Die aandete gaan deur Marleen Minnaar en haar span voorberei word. Die mans kan ook uitsien hierna, want dis iets lekker wat van die vleisbraaivuur kom. Die aand sal daar ook ligte musiek deur musikante gespeel word. Die meester sjefkompetisie word weer gehou, plus ‘n junior meester sjefkompetisie. Vir die mammas met kleiner kinders: Anel sal sorg dat daar kindervermaak is. Die Kerskuiermark vind plaas op 24 en 25 Oktober in en om die Letsitele NG Kerk se amfiteater.
Vossies soek kunstenaars Oud-Vossies wat musikante, sangers, of goeie dansers is en/of ander uitvoerende kunste beoefen, word gesoek. Alle oud-Vossies van álle ouderdomme, wat in die uitvoerende kunste betrokke is, of oor ‘n spesiale talent op die verhoog beskik, word genooi om kontak te maak met me. René Mynhardt, die kultuurorganiseerder by die Hoërskool Ben Vorster by 015 307 4490 of 079 376 7485, met die oog op deelname aan ‘n spesiale oud-Vossie opelugkonsert op Vrydag 19 September.

Get ready for Science Week The Soutpansberg Astronomy Club (SAC) will, for the third year running, be participating in National Science Week (NSW). NSW 2014, organised by the SA Agency for Science and Technology Advancement (SAASTA), under the auspices of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), will run from 2 to 9 August. The week is a countrywide celebration of science, involving various stakeholders and role players conducting science-based activities during the week.

This year’s theme is Today science, tomorrow’s world. The SAC will focus on astronomy, space technology and mathematics. Various activities will be run, including the opportunity to look at the sun, moon, Saturn, stars and deep-sky objects through a telescope, discussions and demonstrations, and handout material. 7 & 8 August; Letaba Show, Tzaneen

Merensky Mambas verloor ‘n giftand
Die telling in die wedstryde teen Tom Naude was 15 – 12 in die guns van Merensky. Die o.15-span se taak was ook taai. Ben Viljoen het die Tommies ‘n groot pak gegee en die Plasies moes met meer as dertig punte wen. Die span van Tom Naude het ander planne gehad en dit baie moeilik vir Merensky gemaak. Die telling het wipplank gery, maar die Plasies het uiteindelik met 19-12 gewen. Merensky se o.16’s het vir die laaste keer uitgedraf as die “Merensky Mambas” (foto onderaan dié bladsy). Die spanbestuurder — bekende Plasie Dougie Elphinstone — het ook vir oulaas die span bygestaan. Dougie skryf vanjaar matriek en maak nou klaar as een van Merensky se lojaalste ondersteuners. Merensky moes dié wedstryd net wen om die driehoekreeks te wen. ‘n Rooi kaart vir Ben Viljoen in hul wedstryd teen Tom Naude het hulle ‘n strafpunt gekos. Weereens was die stryd tussen Plasie en Tommie ongenaakbaar. Die wedstryd het alles bevat: harde duikslae, puik hardlooprugby en pragtige drieë. Merensky het met 18 -10 gewen en is dus ook die wenners van die driehoekreeks. Die Merensky “Ratels” was nog tot byna aan die einde onoorwonne, maar eksamen, beserings en wintersiektes het die eerste en tweede spanne hard getref. Die Ratels kon net nie aan die gang kom nie. Hulle het hard verdedig en alles gegee wat hulle kon, maar moes uiteindelik die knie buig voor ‘n baie gemotiveerde Tom Naude se tweede span. Die eindtelling was 31-0 vir Tom Naude. Die eerste span se wedstryd was kliphard. Die Tommies het met mag en mening ingeklim, maar die Plasie se verdediging was rotsvas. Veral Tony Botha het soos ‘n reus verdedig. Met rustyd was die telbord nog skoon. Die tweede helfte het min of meer soos die eerste verloop, maar in swak lig het die Tommies met ‘n pragdrie toegeslaan en die Plasies se moed gebreek. Minute voor die eindfluitjie en in baie swak lig het die Tommies nog ‘n drie gedruk en met 14-0 gewen. En so het die einde van seisoen aangebreek. Met geen ligaverpligtings nie kon Merensky ‘n vol wedstrydprogram reël. Met nie minder nie as agt tuiswedstryde het die Plasies dit vanjaar baie geniet om voor hul tuisskare te speel. Tussen dertien en sestien wedstryde is gespeel (toere ingesluit). Die o.14’s het 82% van hul wedstryde gewen, ook twee driehoekreekse; die o.15’s het 82% van hul wedstryde gewen en die Waterbergdriehoekreeks gewen; die o.16’s het 78% van hul wedstryde gewen en ook twee driehoekreekse; die Ratels het 72% van hul wedstryde gewen (en die Waterbergreeks ingepalm) en die eerste span eindig die seisoen met ‘n 60%-wenpersentasie. Wenpersentasie behoort nie saak te maak nie, maar met ‘n algehele wenpersentasie van 75% is daar min twyfel dat Merensky-rugby weer op die regte pad is. Nou wag almal in spanning vir die Rhino 7’s wat volgende naweek afskop!
It’s time to get into shape,
summer
is around the corner! Die Mambas van Merensky (lees ook rugbyberig op bl 16) verloor vanjaar een van sy giftande, naamlik spanbestuurder Mark Elphinstone (hy sit voor, op die grond). Mark was ‘n uiters suksesvolle spanbestuurder, hoofsaaklik vanweë sy haas ongebreidelde lojaliteit aan die span en die skool. Sy skoolmaats het op ‘n unieke wyse vir hom gespeel, omdat hy hulle op ‘n unieke wyse ondersteun en gemotiveer het.

Halt! Kom ons begin van voor af Merensky se rugby ondergaan ‘n herlewing Die omstrede besluit van die Hoërskool Merensky van ‘n jaar of drie gelede om uit skoleliga-rugby en die jaarlikse derby te onttrek en van voor af aan hul rugby te begin bou, het vanjaar gewys dat die besluit — wat by talle ondersteuners van die skool baie ongewild was — die regte medisyne was om die skool se rugby weer op die spoor te kry. Merensky se hoof, mnr Magnus Steyn, was destyds duidelik daaroor dat dit nie ‘n kwessie van suur druiwe was omdat die skool nie meer op die rugbyveld gepresteer het nie. By hom en sy bestuurspan het dit gegaan om strukturele veranderings wat nodig geraak het. Hy het na die geheelbeeld gekyk: afrigting, motivering, trots, geriewe, geleenthede, koste en dies meer. In ‘n private gesprek met die Bulletin het hy
destyds op ‘n vraag van ons gesê “dit is nodig om rugby by die skool in ‘n nuwe gietstuk tot ‘n nuwe model te omvorm”. Hy was ook vasbeslote dat meer rugby gespeel moes word, veral tuis — ten einde die geesdrif weer aan te blaas en die gees self weer op sterk bene te kry. Alle aanduidings is aan die einde van die 2014-seisoen dat Merensky besig is om op die rugbyveld te herrys. Die proses is duidelik nog nie afgehandel nie, maar dat daar nuwe lewe is, is duidelik soos die sonsopkoms oor die Laeveld. Terwyl baie skole deesdae sukkel om wedstryde, tuis of weg, te reël, het die Plasies hul 2014-seisoen vol gepak en toe teen Tom Naude op die koue bruingrasvelde van die Tommies afgesluit. Die wedstryde was

eers in die gedrang omdat die Limpopohalfeindronde vir dieselfde naweek by HTS Tom Naude bespreek was. Gelukkig kon die twee skole ‘n plan bedink, om die wedstryd geskuif te kry. Die rugbygees tussen die twee skole was vir ‘n klompie jare stil, maar die twee ou rugbyvyande het in 2008 weer teen mekaar begin speel. Die mededinging tussen die twee skole is steeds keihard, maar die sportmangees is puik. Vanjaar se wedstryde tussen die twee skole was ook deel van die Hoëveld Driehoekreeks saam met die Hoërskool Ben Viljoen. Ben Viljoen het vroeër in die seisoen die Tommies
pak gegee en Merensky sou met groot tellings moes wen om die reeks te wen. Dit was weens die wedstryde tussen Merensky en Ben Viljoen wat uitgereën en die punte deur die twee skole gedeel moes word. Die Plasies se o.14-span het vanjaar Merensky-ondersteuners se harte lekker warm laat klop. Die o.14’s speel vir mekaar, geen sterre nie, net ‘n klompie harde werkers. Al het hulle die wedstryd teen Tom Naude gewen (15-12), was Ben Viljoen se punteverskil meer en kon die “Kwaggas” — die span se nuwe noemnaam — nie die beker wen nie. • Vervolg op bladsy 15

skep dat ons kinders Limpopo uit sy vloervreetstatus kan lig, veral na ‘n blink vertoning deur Madot Mabokela van onse rooi skool. Toe volg daar egter ‘n vertoning van sulke patetiese afmetings teen Grens dat Oubal wens hy kan dit uit sy geheue wis. In teenstelling met die vlugvoetige Grens-mannetjies het dit vir Oubal gelyk of ons klomp nooit eers van die bus afgeklim het nie — en as hulle het, het dit gelyk of hulle kettings aan hul voete had. Met die rustydtelling 54-0 teen ons, het Oubal vir die ergste gevrees; maar genoemde Madot se verskyning op die veld het die gety darem so effens gebriek en was die loesing toe “net” 78-17. Eina, nog erger as Zimbabwe 2013! Daar was praatjies dat dié tendens verlede Saterdag teen Boland omgekeer sou word en twee Limpopo drieë binne die eerste vyftien minute het Oubal sommer baie moed laat skep. Die rustydtelling van 17-15 in ons guns het die son
weer helder in Oubal se gemoed laat skyn, maar o wee, in die tweede helfte was dit nag en verloor ons 54-24. Praat van kapitulasie! ‘Tja, in hierdie dae verlang Oubal na neef Outop om sy wyshede te spreek oor wat fout is in Limpopo se skolerakbie. Oubal het nie die antwoorde nie, maar dit smaak hom as die rooi skool die jaar sukkel, is die hele Limpopo in trurat. Dat Limpopo ‘n erg gefragmenteerde interne liga het, speel waarskynlik ‘n groot rol in die swak vertonings by Cravenweek. Oubal dink dit is tyd dat die topvyf of -ses skole op ‘n meer gereelde basis teen mekaar speel, sodat die kaf deeglik van die koring geskei kan word. Tot tyd en wyl dit gebeur, sal skaamkry egter ons voorland bly! “Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose. Nothing ain’t worth nothing, but it’s free.” — Kris Kristofferson
In ons prille jeug is ons voordurend gewaarsku teen reverse masking-boodskappe van musiek, en na al die jare kon Oubal nog nooit uitwerk hoe ‘n mens ‘n seven single of ‘n tape in trurat gespeel kry om die dekadente boodskap te kan vang nie. ‘Tja, die afgelope paar weke was Oubal en die ou tante op ‘n soort road trip wat ‘n agterstevoor weergawe van ou Kris Kristoffersen se Me and Bobby McGee was — van die Laeveldse sonskyn na die koolvelde van Mpumalanga! Eers is ons by Innibos vergas deur Stevie en sy jillende aanhangers se misplaaste patriotisme, toe Onder-Sabie toe in die willetuin vir kop skoonmaak en ten slotte verlede week daar langs die Middelburgse dam. ‘n Trip met verskuilde boodskappe wat Oubal met baie filosofiese nadenke gelaat het. Hoe ‘n leierlose volk hulle kan laat verlei deur ‘n nasiebouer(!) wat in ‘n ander gedaante ál die Bulle Bokke wou maak, is vir Oubal ‘n groter
Limpopo in Trurat geheimenis as die fisiese ontstaan van die heelal. Miskien moet ou Steve eerder sy Stem ‘n slag gaan verhef op Loftus waar daar deesdae so dikwels van die vloer af gevreet word! Die naggeluide van Onder-Sabie se klavier het baie bygedra om Oubal uit sy Steve-geïnspireerde depressie te lig, maar Middelburg het alles in ‘n oogwink weer omgekeer. ‘Tja, Oubal het besluit om een keer in sy lewe sy tuisprovinsie in lewende lywe by die Cravenweek te gaan ondersteun. Die eerste dag teen die ou Noorwes-Kaap het Oubal ‘n bietjie moed laat
Jonélle Oberholzer van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster het by die o.12- en o.16B-provinsiale hokkietoernooi as skeidsregter die wedstryde vlot laat verloop. Daar is soveel vertroue in haar optrede op die baan dat sy selfs in die eindronde die fluitjie geblaas het. Jonélle was die jongste skeidsregter wat by die toernooi ingespan is.
