Women officers show their grit SIPHESIHLE NOTWABAZA @SihleMusic
A
team of women traffic officers representing various metros ended Women’s Month on a high note when they held an all-female roadblock on Tuesday 27 August. The aim of the roadblock at Jakes Gerwel Drive, opposite Vangate Mall, was to increase visibility and to send the message that female officers are as capable as their male counterparts. The officers’ “sisters” from the department of law enforcement and the police were also in attendance. According to Maxime Bezuidenhout,
spokesperson for the traffic department, the roadblock showcases the contribution women make to the uninformed services and the safety and security of residents. Pamela Mkosi, an assistant chief traffic officer for the southern and western areas, says they chose the spot because it is one of the busiest roads in the area. “The roadblock was held in response to complaints about inconsiderate motorists, people using their phones while driving and the use of unroadworthy vehicles,” she says. The officers also checked motorists’ licences and if they had outstanding warrants. Mkosi agrees women officers’ contribution to keeping our roads safe is invaluable.
“We want to show members of the public that we, as women, play a significant role in reducing carnage on our roads,” she says. She hopes that exercises like these will encourage young girls to join the traffic service after they have finished school. “Not because they feel they have to, but because they see it as a valid career choice where they can excel.” On the day, traffic officials arrested one motorist for driving under the influence of alcohol, impounded four taxis, two cellphones and arrested five motorists for outstanding warrants. “Officers further executed 41 warrants to
the value of R86 200,” reads a statement released by the City of Cape Town. The officers also caught a motorist who was driving a car with an illegal number plate. Some motorists welcomed the roadblock and said they would like it to happen more often. Robin De Kock, a businessman from Blaauwberg, said the roadblock was a good thing and a good show of force. “I have a lot of faith in female traffic cops. I know with them, it (the roadblock) will be done properly. People are lawless on the roads, especially taxi drivers, so this helps a lot,” he said.

he City of Cape Town encourages Grade 12 learners and students who are pursuing studies in expert fields such as accounting, nursing, engineering, information and systems technology; business sciences and sustainable energy engineering to apply for financial support. The assistance is offered for studies in 2020, and those interested should apply by 19 September this year. The City is offering financial support to aspiring and existing students who are residing in the greater Cape Metropolitan area. The support is for full-time studies. All applicants need to be registered; and must pursue further studies towards an undergraduate or postgraduate degree or diploma in one of the approved City scarce skills fields of study for 2020. The City will consider applications for studies at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT); University of Cape Town (UCT); University of the Western Cape (UWC); and the University of Stellenbosch (US). “The City is committed to offering growth and development opportunities to our young residents. The financial support is pivotal for those who cannot fulfil their full potential because they simply do not have the means to support themselves and pay for further education and training,” said the Mayco member for corporate services, Sharon Cottle.
She added that the ultimate aim of financing students is to allow them to improve their lives. “The academic financial support we offer to young residents and City staff is key to the City’s skills and development programme. Other opportunities include job shadowing, graduate internship programmes, learnerships and apprenticeships, as well as skills development programmes.” The City’s long-term strategy determines what type of expertise are needed to promote and develop residents and their own personnel. One of the considerations has been to equip the municipality with the necessary skills to use 4IR (fourth industrial revolution) technologies in the future. Each year, the City awards external financial support to approximately 50 applicants for formal studies in areas that have been identified by the City’s directorates. Apart from catering to the technological demands of the future, it is essential that the City also invests in expertise which provides the essential basic services that maintain a well-run and healthy city. Therefore, residents with knowledge of and skills in nursing, contract management, fleet management, accounting, as well as library and information science will remain in demand.

church building in Athlone now houses an artistic hub where artists and performers get together and live out their passion. The building was officially handed over to Art in Athlone, a multi-cultural community artistic hub, on Saturday 24 August. The building belongs to the New Apostolic Church. According to one of its bishops, Neville Barron, the congregation in Athlone decided to meet at Lincoln Estate for worship instead and allow the community arts hub to use the other building. The decision came after the church elders heard about the hub’s values – that of uplifting and developing the youth. “What was key to agreeing to giving the building to the art centre was that someone told us that many children are part of the centre. We believe that children are the future,” Barron explained. He added the church is committed to support community initiatives that develop the youth. Also present at the hand over was ward
49 councillor, Rashid Adams. He vowed to support the centre in various ways that include bringing talented youth that is supported by City’s programmes to use the centre. “This is a place of learning. It is given to people to motivate them because people always ask ‘What can I do?’ I am very happy about this,” he expressed. The appreciative owners of the art centre, Kenneth and Deirdre Alexander, thanked the church. The artistic couple said they feel encouraged by the gesture of the church to continue doing their work which helps them look after their family. “This is the real church. This is what church is about. A church that is responsible and unconditional in their deeds,” Kenneth expressed. He elaborated, saying the church does not use religion as a measure or criteria when it supports organisations. While a bigger venue would have been ideal, Kenneth said they’re still thankful. “I believe we must work with what we have,” he explained. He is currently showcasing his art work on Long Street in Cape Town CBD where he does painting and sketches.

We have got to recreate a revolution of our own kind,” he said encouragingly. To revive the crowd was Allan Boesak, a renowned South African minister of the word and a freedom fighter who worked closely with former South African president, Nelson Mandela, and retired peacemaker, Desmond Tutu. He delivered a keynote address in the form of a sermon that left the attendees inspired. His key message was around people who want to please God before they please people that they live with. He made an example of people who pass beggars by and never offer them any time or help but want to please and praise God. He also encouraged the masses who united in prayer to never give up on the fight for justice.

as a result of community organisations engagements on countless occasions. They realised the need to unite to fight crime. The meetings were facilitated by workers’ union the Service and Allied Workers Union of South Africa (SAWUSA). According to its president, Wilfred Alcock, they realised that the working class, their members, are directly affected by crime. He said they are the ones who are robbed on their way to and from work. “When the mothers get to work, they are not productive because they are worried about their children – if they are safe where they are,” he explained. Alcock said they asked themselves, as the union, who they could turn to for solutions to the crime problem. Their response was to go to religious leaders. “So we are here as different religious organisations to pray for peace in our communities,” he said.
Fire statistics decline year-on-year Cape Town’s most recent Fire and Rescue Service statistics showed a decline in most categories for the last year. Most encouraging is the decline in the number of residential fires – both formal and informal, but also the number of fatalities, which dropped by 29%, year-on-year. However, the increase in the number of informal dwellings affected is a concern and speaks to the challenges of firefighting in informal settlements. The City continues to invest in its firefighting service, with new fire stations in Masiphumelele and Sir Lowry’s Pass Vil-
lage in the home straight. The Gugulethu fire station was reopened on Monday 19 August, following a twomonth closure due to damage caused by protestors. It was the third such closure of the fire station since July 2018. Repairs and increased security measures necessitated by the continued targeting of the station cost nearly R1.2 million. This includes R247 000 on a fence to enclose the fire station and R315 000 to install new sectional overhead doors. “We’ve highlighted the attacks on our staff before, whether it be vehicles that are
stoned on route to fires or hoses cut while the staff is trying to extinguish fires. But the attacks on Gugulethu have been particularly problematic. “The firefighters have agreed to return each time and continue serving the community who has turned on them no less than three times in the last year, speaks to their commitment and dedication to the job. It has been a traumatic and trying time for all concerned, and I sincerely hope that the madness will come to a stop. There is no justification for destroying infrastructure, not least that which is meant to save lives and property.”

The event will take place at the church hall, from 10:00 until 13:00. The club’s chairperson, Sandra Adams, says this year’s event is going to be bigger. He adds that they have invited seniors from areas such as Langa, Manenberg, Gugulethu and the greater Heideveld. “The police and ward councillor will be in attendance and there will also be a nurse doing some tests such as blood tests. The club meets every Thursdays for breakfast and some activities,” says Adams.

fter realising their overgrown yard was becoming a hiding place for drug users, congregants of Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church and two neighbourhood watches decided to take action. On Saturday 24 August members of the Sonneblom Street and Parktown neighbourhood watches joined members of the congregation to clean the yard and trim the trees. June Henkeman, a member of the congregation and a community activist, says the two groups work in the community of
Bridgetown. While a lack of resources is a constant problem, they work tirelessly to protect the community and reduce crime. She says when they noticed the overgrown grass and trees they offered to cut them. She passed on the message to the church’s pastor, Aloysius Abone, who gladly gave them the go-ahead. “There was also an old bench under the trees where the criminals used to sleep,” Henkeman explains. According to Henkeman, the groups would like to help other families too, to safeguard their properties by cutting overgrown grass and trimming the trees. They can’t do that efficiently though,
since they do not have enough tree cutting tools. They do not have first aid kits they can use when the need arises. They are also in need of torches. There’s no hiding place anymore for criminals and drug users now that the Bridgetown church’s yard has been cleaned up. “There is no hiding place for them anymore. We trimmed the church so beautifully,” she says. She says when the congregation met again at the church, they were thrilled and immediately saw the difference. The church’s pastor is currently in Nigeria and couldn’t be reached for comment.

MATRIC EXAMS
Plan well for finals W
ith a little over six weeks left before the 2019 Grade 12 learners start their final exams, here is a look at how best to strategise your time leading up to the exams. “Your approach to studying shouldn’t be random or haphazard at this stage, but should leverage the learnings from your prelim exams, to build on your strengths and to identify and address weaknesses,” says Nola Payne, head of faculty for information and communications technology at The Independent Institute of Education. “Prelims play an important role in finals preparation – beyond generating marks which contribute to your overall year-mark.” She says the act of sitting down in a similar environment and under similar conditions to final exams would have provided learners with valuable lessons about their performance under pressure. “In addition, prelim exams would have highlighted the important sections of your work, as well as potential areas where you may have gaps in your knowledge. So as your finals preparation starts, using insights gained during your prelims will provide useful information and structure which will allow you to organise your thoughts and integrate the lessons learnt for each subject,” she says. She gives the followings tips: Review prelim exam papers: Determining where you did well and where you went wrong during the penultimate matric exams can be a great confidence booster. Focusing on and mastering those sections of work which proved problematic during the prelims means that you are concentrating on material that is very likely to arise during the final exams, and for which you will now be well prepared when it does. Completing past exemplar papers It should by now be common knowledge for most matrics that completing past exam papers is one of the best and most efficient ways to prepare for exams. Applying what you have learned, you replicate the time constraints you’ll encounter during the actual exams, you get used to different formats of questions, and ultimately gain a more thorough insight into your work than what you would have achieved through simple reading and re-reading of textbooks. Learners attending upcoming open days at universities or private institutions can make use of the opportunity while there, to speak to student counsellors about accessing past papers available at the institution. Mapping questions asked to work covered in class and textbooks When revising – whether by reviewing classwork, textbooks, completing past papers or looking at prelim exam papers – take note of which questions are asked time and time again. There is an excellent chance these questions will be making their appearance in your own final exams, albeit potentially in a different format, so ensure that you pay extra attention to them. Highlight sections that are challenging If you constantly find yourself struggling with specific questions or sections of work, and if these consistently arose in previous papers, it is time to do the hard work and face down the challenge. Compile a document for each subject, summarising the hardest to conquer sections, and keep this close by at all times. Go back to it over again, and in two months time, you will be confident when faced with previously problematic work. Summarise sections you are comfortable with While work with which you feel more comfortable requires less of your focus, it is good to have a document summarising these sections as well, to reference in coming weeks. Focusing only on the hard stuff, without occasionally going back to the easier stuff, could lead to an out-of-sight, outof-mind situation. “Eight weeks is still a sufficient amount of time to get some decent revision and preparation done. Using this time optimally and strategically can bring about a substantial improvement in your results. But the key is to get going, and get going right now. While two months may feel like a long time, procrastinating for a day or two can have a snowball effect, and you may find yourself left with little time to do more than cramming,” says Payne. “But if you get started, today, on the steps above, you will be reaping the rewards of being confidently prepared when you step into the exam room in October.”

Summit to address safety suggested My letter has reference to, “Safety at malls must be addressed” by community activist Rozario Brown, (People’s Post, 27 August). The brazen attacks and robberies of local jewellery stores at shopping centres is alarming and, gratefully, no loss of life during the incidents is a valuable consolation. After managing various shopping centres for a number of years, I agree with Brown that owners and property managers should not compromise
Citizens asked to comment The department of social development encourages the public to comment on the draft for the manufacturing of washable, reusable sanitary towels. The department is urging everyone to have their say on the Draft South African Standard. This standard covers the requirements and test methods for washable, reusable sanitary towels for external use. Furthermore, this standard does not apply to disposable sanitary towels. The introduction of such standards could be a gamechanger for the sanitary industry in SA because the consequences of inadequate menstrual management extends beyond the classroom to health, dignity, psycho-social well-being, employment, and participation in society. Focusing on a holistic approach to menstrual hygiene management will go a long way to providing an interventional edge in this field. SABS (South African Bureau of Standards), the technical committee responsible for the preparation of this standard has reached consensus that the draft should become a South African standard. The objective of the SABS standards division is to develop, promote and maintain South African national standards. This objective is incorporated in the Standards Act, 2008. To date, there has been no standard available for the manufacturing of washable and reusable sanitary towels. Yet, it remains one of the most economical, environmentally friendly and efficient modes of dealing with menstruation. Moreover, other African nations across the continent have taken the lead in this area of certifying reusable pads. In SA, a leading store is selling reusable products. Internationally, it is becoming more and more popular because of its health and environmental benefits. The draft document is now made available by way of public enquiry to all interested and affected parties for public comment, and to the technical committee members for record purposes. The closing date for public comment is Wednesday 25 September. SHARNA FERNANDAZ Minister for social development
security to reflect greater profit margins in respect of operational costs. Security has always been a priority operational cost during my management tenure, and a robust debate always prevailed when I had to convince my superiors that the security of tenants and customers was paramount. I suggest that a summit be held with all shopping centre stakeholders to tackle the increasing scourge of
attacks on jewellery stores in shopping malls, and a discerning strategy be implemented. I reiterate Brown’s words, “Spending your money shouldn’t become a matter of life and death, which at present it has become as many of these malls are clearly soft targets for criminals, and the staff and shoppers will be ultimate victims.” Shopping must be made safer. MARK KLEINSCHMIDT, Ward 60 councillor
Using your passion to create employment Hats off to Athlone resident Chantal Leibrandt, for conceptualising her spa beauty salon and transforming her home into a business venture. Leibrandt’s example of entrepreneurship is what we foster into our children, which is: if you cannot find employment, use your passion to create your own.
Her spa, aptly named B’U, epitomises what Ghandi said, “You be the change you want to see in the world.” Wishing Chantal much success in her business, and praying that all women had a happy Women’s Month. MARK KLEINSCHMIDT, Ward 60 councillor
Booi sets the record on Salt River site Contrary to what has been issued in the public sphere, the City of Cape Town’s Salt River Market site could deliver 850 affordable housing units, both Gap-market and social housing. The final number of units would be influenced on the development flexibility that is a characteristic of developments in general and that ultimately drives the design. To make statements to the contrary indicating that what is now planned for the site is less than the original and previous affordable housing proposals are simply untrue. This is because the original proposal had a design ratio of 35% affordable housing to 65% market housing. With much in-depth design development having happened since the original application, the latest approved ratio of affordable units proposed is in fact a better ratio of closer to 50% of affordable housing units to marketrelated units. The number of units proposed has never been changed because of the increased market valuation of this site. In fact, the design development process of this site has a far greater impact than any financial drivers would have. The City will continue to assess Cityowned land, including suitable land in and near the Cape Town CBD and other urban centres to determine whether some of these properties could be developed for housing opportunities. We are committed to inclusivity and will keep on exploring all possibilities to provide more affordable housing opportuni-
ties for our residents. The Social Housing Act says social housing is a rental or co-operative housing option for households earning between R1 501 and R15 000 per month. Social housing projects are managed by accredited social housing institutions (SHIs). Social housing projects are developed on well-located, accessible land within areas that contribute to spatial, economic and social development. As with any rental contract, tenants formally enter into lease agreements with the landlord being the SHI and they are required to pay their monthly rentals. Social housing also assists those who do not necessarily qualify for a bond from a bank. It is a key mechanism to drive spatial transformation and to cater for the acute accommodation need in urban centres which have resulted from rapid urbanisation. Social housing is based on partnerships with the acknowledgment that local government alone and government in general, cannot satisfy the accommodation need in urban centres. If tenants do not adhere to their lease agreements, the responsible SHI will follow the necessary legal process. A prospective tenant’s willingness to pay for the accommodation is therefore of paramount importance. According to law, the City may discount City-owned property for certain purposes including social housing developments. MALUSI BOOI Mayco member for human settlements

Heritage Month celebrated on stage As part of commemorating Heritage Month, composer Dr Thokozani Mhlambi revives old music compositions at The Kitchen in Woodstock on Tuesday 3 September from 10:00. The panel will be made up of various music experts. According to a statement, this aims to remind Africans of their ancient music composition and intel-
lectual excellence. It would raise awareness of and educate guests about the birth and journey that has been travelled by compositions of the past, while finding a place for them to be recognised and enjoyed in contemporary South Africa, and furthermore, Africa. This seeks to unearth, expose and honour African artistic heritage
that would be forgotten. “We had to retrieve the songs from the archives of various arts and culture institutions – some of which are named after the intellectual greats whom I humbly hope this project will fittingly honour and do justice to their compositional excellence,” says Mhlambi. Audiences will be treated to rendi-
tions from what Mhlambi terms “The Ntsikana Moment” which honours and is a revival of Xhosa prophet, Ntsikana’s music as well as music from Reuben Caluza’s 1920s ragtime, sung by University of KwaZulu Natal opera students. V Tickets are available at www.webtickets.co.za for R100 each and R60 per student or pensioner.

MUSIC EXCHANGE 2019
Putting money where the music is T
he love for music, not money, is usually what inspires musicians to pursue a career in music, but it remains a business. Nobody understands this better than Martin Myers, founder of the Music Exchange (#MEX19), South Africa’s only entertainment-economy-focused conference. “Our aim is to empower musicians so they can look after their rights associated with the craft they love. MEX connects them with all the right people who can give their careers a push. “It’s an opportunity to get to know all of the collecting agencies and the roles they play in the industry. They can also listen to the stories of and mix with like-minded people who share inspiration and advise. It is a chance to learn from one another.” The conference returns to Cape Town for the ninth time from 13 to 15 September at the Radisson Red Hotel at the V &A Waterfront. The theme of this year’s conference will be “rights”. Digital monetisation and understanding your rights, be it legal (including what a proper legal contract looks like and how to navigate the small claims court), or rights in the digital economy, all will be unpacked, demystified and opportunities explored at MEX19. Myers says this is an ideal opportunity for established or ambitious young artists, pub-
MEX chairperson Sipho Mabuse, Christian Wright of Abbey Road, and MEX convener Martin Meyers. licists, producers, DJs, managers, venue owners, record labels and agencies to gain invaluable insight. “Key decision-makers of some of the most important music bodies in South Africa will attend this year conference,” he says. The Southern African Music Rights Organisation will be in attendance at MEX19, as well as the chief executive officer (CEO) of Africori, Yoel Kenan; Active Music Publishers chief executive officer John Fishlock;
KFM station manager Steve Werner and advocate Barry Varkel, among others. Artists include Chad Saaiman, RJ Benjamin and MEX chairperson and the legend Sipho Mabuse. Booking agents and promoters Lesley Wells, Craig Parks and Lauren Parks will also be sharing their knowledge, along with community radio specialist Selwyn Bartlett. MEX19 will also welcome back longstanding partners Paul Bothner Music.
Since its inception, Music Exchange has enjoyed support from some of the world’s biggest names in production, songwriting, composition, management, public relations, digital strategy and live performance. After last year’s event, the chief operating officer (COO) of the Recording Industry of South Africa, Nhlanhla Paul Sibisi, remarked, “MEX18 was a real eye-opener, in terms of how it was well organised and the selection of speakers. Each speaker covered the topic eloquently and with passion. I walked out of MEX18 feeling empowered. It presented each attendee with a range of business opportunities, all of which can be capitalised on almost immediately.” Earlier this year, Music Exchange was honoured and recognised by the Western Cape government for its contribution to arts and culture. Limited delegates tickets for MEX19 are available through Quicket. Full conference tickets, for all days, cost R500, which includes lunch on Saturday and Sunday.

Lottery helps fund ‘Mantis’
Play explores ‘tragedy’
Thanks to funding from the National Lotteries Commission, the Jungle Theatre Company will be performing Mantis and the Bee during the September school holidays. Mantis and the Bee, is based on a story of the first people to live. It is a visual, musical and humorous exploration of /Xam mythology and the origin of life. The performance uses dance, masks, puppetry, Khoikhoi and English languages to convey the historical story. Mantis and the Bee were created by the rain and the flame to go on an epic journey in search of life. They get involved in an action comedy adventure in a world before the earth was created. “It was amazing to hear one of the first languages,” says Miranda Tait, manager at the
Antigone (not quite/quiet) is the first in a series of four productions by the University of Cape Town’s Centre for Theatre, Dance and Performance Studies (CTDPS) and Magnet Theatre that will explore the concept of “tragedy” at the Baxter Golden Arrow Studio. At the beginning of 2019, CTDPS X previously the drama department and the School of Dance X embarked on a five-year research project on Re-imagining Tragedy from Africa and the Global South (Retags). Led by Mark Fleishman and Mandla Mbothwe, the project is made possible through funding by the Andrew W Mellon Foundation. Fleishman, director of the production, says it engages with the concept of the aftermath: the tragedy of our particular aftermath in post-1994 South Africa and the aftermath of tragedy as a form. Performers are drawn from the CTDPS postgraduate cohort and trainees at Magnet Theatre, who were recently seen on the main festival at the National Arts Festival in Makanda (Grahamstown in G7: Okwe-Bokhwe, directed by Mandla Mbothwe). They are led by Jennie Reznek with Abigail Mei, Balindile ka Ngcobo, Carlo Daniels, Jason Jacobs, Luxolo Mboso, Kanya Viljoen, Motlatji Mjamba, Sityhilelo Makupula, Sivenathi Macibela, Sive Gubangxa, Siyavuya Gqumehlo, Sizwe Lubengu
theatre company. “The children loved the show. It was entertaining and provided them with an alternative view of how the earth was created.” The September holiday programme will take place from 14:00 to 16:00 each day at the Jungle Theatre Company in Muizenberg. The event is suitable for people aged eight and up. Tickets cost R60 for the performance and R100 for both the performance and workshop. Money raised from ticket sales will be used to bring 60 children per day from the theatre company’s partner organisations to participate in the programme. Refreshments will be on sale.

and Yvonne Msebenzi. Fleishman says, “The broader research project proposes to take the concept of “tragedy” X from the very beginnings of theatre in its European manifestation X and to reimagine it from a perspective in Africa, that is, at once, directed at the complex challenges of our global postcolonial present and towards our possible futures.” The research is based on a recognition of the numerous adaptations and staging of ancient tragedies by major writers and theatre-makers across the African continent. From Wole Soyinka, Ola Rotimi, Femi Osofisan (Nigeria), JP Clark, Efua Sutherland, Ama Ata Aidoo (Ghana), Ebrahim Husssein (Tanzania), Sylvain Bemba (Congo Brazzaville), Saad Ardash (Egypt), to numerous others; Athol Fugard (South Africa) and Trinidad Morgades (Equatorial Guinea). The production previews on 18 September, opens on 19 September and runs for a limited season, at the Baxter Golden Arrow Studio, until 28 September. Performances are at 19:30 with Saturday matinees at 15:00. Ticket prices range from R100 to R150 and R50 for students and scholars. Matinees and evening performances cost R70.

Dancers gear up for dogs support NOMZAMO YUKU @NomzamoYuku
L
ocal dancers participating in the Dancers Love Dogs (DLD) show, taking place at Artscape in the CBD on Saturday 5 October, are currently training along with their dogs. The dancers are determined to raise R450 000 by the end of the year, which will be equivalent to the amount they raised last year. DLD is a non-profit organisation (NPO) and they work closely with NPOs that take care of sick and stray animals. They also run mass sterilisation programmes. They host the show annually and this year’s event is the eighth performance, one of their biggest fundraising events of the year. Dancers come from different professional studios in Cape Town and share a love for animals. Unfortunately for those keen to see the dancing dogs, only four pooches can be accommodated on the stage. “It (the show) is honestly beautiful – many of the dogs have been rescued and the owners are trying to overcome the dogs’ insecurities with constant training and reassurance,” says Brigitte Reeve Taylor, founder of DLD. While the dancers and their dogs will be covering genres such as ballet, modern, jazz, tap and hip-hop, comedian, Alan Committie, will be the show’s master of ceremonies. “I honestly believe we all have a talent that we can use for a greater cause. We have all been designed for something greater than ourselves and our contribution to the world needs to have meaning,” says Reeve Taylor. She urges people to adopt at local shelters or to volunteer to walk the dogs. Alternatively one can drop off a bag of food or a warm blanket. Taylor says the animal shelters are literally overflowing with dogs and cats. V Tickets cost R300 per person and are available at https:// bit.ly/2ZtuTiX. For more information visit the Dancers Love Dogs Facebook page.
The dancers collaborating for mass sterilisation of animals in need, in Cape Town, will be at Artscape Opera House from 19:30.

Fluitjieblasers word geteiken SAREL BURGER
D
ie WP-Rugbyunie (WPRU) strompel steeds voort van die een krisis na die ander. In die jongste episode het ’n sleutelarm van die WPRU, die unie se skeidsregtersvereniging, verlede week geweier om enige fluitjieblasers beskikbaar te stel vir die afgelope naweek se belangrike reeks klubwedstryde – onder meer die laaste sarsie Superligawedstryde. Dit is waarskynlik die eerste keer in die geskiedenis van klubrugby in die WP dat so iets gebeur. Skynbaar is die verduideliking vir die skeidsregters se optrede dat die blasers enersyds te veel geteiken word deur misdadige elemente by sommige sportterreine, en dat hulle nie voldoende beskermende ondersteuning van die WPRU ontvang nie. Andersyds voel die skeidsregters blykbaar dat hulle nie genoegsame geldelike steun van die moederunie kry nie.
Maar inderwaarheid strek die ongelukkigheid onder die skeidsregters (en so ook die algemene publiek) veel verder. Daar is voortdurende onderlinge struwelinge in die WP se rugby-opset; administratiewe flaters duik van tyd tot tyd op; daar is ’n onnodige sloerdery met die kontraktering van Curriebeker-spelers en die WPRU se finansiële situasie is in ’n erge warboel. By die skryf hiervan het dit bekend geword dat alle belanghebbendes die afgelope Maandag 2 September koppe bymekaar sou sit tydens ’n krisisvergadering op Nuweland – om minstens die probleem ter wille van ’n gerusstelling en tevredenheid by die skeidsregters tuis te bring sodat die klubwedstrydprogram weer sy gang kan gaan. Indien konsensus in hierdie verband nie bereik sou word nie, maar terselfdertyd besluit sou word dat alle onafgehandelde wedstryde steeds moet plaasvind, dan gaan ons vanjaar nog Superliga-klubrugby sien tot vlak in die somermaande.
