Theft of vehicles on increase HEILIE COMBRINCK
P
olice in Uitenhage are appealing to the public to install additional security measures, specifically antitheft devices in their motor vehicles as there is an increase of motor vehicle theft in town. “The police are committed to create a safe and secure environment; however this can only be achieved if individuals and communities co-operate with the police,” said police spokesperson W/O Gerda Swart. According to police records there was an increase in the theft of motor vehicles over the last couple of weeks. “Parking areas at shopping centres are targeted. We would like to advise owners of especially older or less expensive motor vehicles to install devices to prevent theft of their vehicles,” said W/O Swart. The Uitenhage police also request the public to be on the look-out for any suspicious vehicles or persons and to report them to the Uitenhage police station by phoning 0041 996 3438 or 010111 (from a landline only).

Miss Edith Hayes (102) dies HEILIE COMBRINCK One of Uitenhage’s oldest residents, Miss Edith Hayes, passed away last Sunday at the age of 102 years at Rosa Munch House.

She was actively involved as Club Master for many years and maintained interest in the group and attended functions up to her 100th year,” said Cathy Ingram who also was involved with the Uitenhage Scouting

“She use to say ‘Once a Riebeek girl always a Riebeek girl’ and we actually adopted these words. Through these words and many other of her wisdoms, she will always be remembered at Riebeek College.” Miss Hayes also was a keen sports woman and represented EP in badminton and was just as competitive on the tennis court. August is the month in which to celebrate women and the role they fulfil in society. Sadly this is also the time to pay tribute to Miss Edith Hayes, who has served her community with pride for more than 100 years! During an interview on her 90th birthday she stated that she got so old because she never married, but was not old enough yet for bowls! Her philosophy of life always was “God never forsakes me!”

before the group closed down. Miss Hayes was a founder member of the Girl Guides Association in Uitenhage and joined the Uitenhage Scout Group as Assistant Cub Master in January 1928. She was appointed as Cub Master in 1936, a position she served until 1954 after which she served as an active committee member until 1991. She also enjoyed the privilege to have met Lord Baden Powell the founder of the Scout Movement. “She was the longest serving member of all time at Uitenhage Scouts,” said Ingram. According to Marilyn Woods, Principal at Riebeek College Girls’ High School, Miss Hayes was the oldest living Old-Riebeek Girl and she had attended all the school’s Founders Day events until the age of 100 years.
