Three protesterswere arrested by thepolice after they were caught at theReslife building.“Theuniversity condemns these at-
tacks and reiterates its call for pro-testers to desist fromcommitting actsof violence, vandalism, intimidationand arson,” read the statement.“The security threat to students
and staff in addition to the damage ofproperty remains a concern for theuniversity. UWC will continue tomonitor the situation with the assist-ance of SAPS, andwill continue to en-gage with stakeholders in an effort tofind solutions to the current challen-ges.”On Friday TygerBurgermet with a
group of disgruntled students whosuspected that these disruptionswere caused by outsiders or studentswho had not prepared for their ex-ams.A group representative that did not
want to be named, said many of themwere surprised at these latest inci-dents because it was not called for bythemain organisers of the #feesmust-fall campaign.“As students we agree with the
campaign to make education availa-ble to all, and every meeting we haveattended stressed the importance ofpeaceful protest,” she said.“What happened last week was un-
forgivable for the success of this cam-paign. What does burning a beautifulpiano have to do with fees? We sawit happen – why?“Many of us (there were about 15
students in the group thatmet) are in-volved with many activities on cam-pus and know quite a lot of studentsandwe spotted plenty of strange facesamong the protesters.“I don’t like to make assumptions,
but there were also some studentsthat we know have not been keepingup with their studies – were they theinstigators?“We know that the management is
trying to sort out the situation, butmeanwhile there are students whoare suffering because their lives areput onhold.What about those in theirfinal years; the students from out oftown who have made travel plans?“I think as students we have done
a good thing to start this campaignbut we must not allow it to be hi-jacked.”

Representatives of different caregroups marched through Glenlily inParow West on 14 November – not only
to protest against drug houses and dealers,but also to make their voices heard abouta lack of police support.
The group only amounted to about 35 peo-ple, but consisted of members of the UDM,Age in Action, Parow Concerned Residents,Pacrif neighbourhood watch, Parow Valleyneighbourhood watch and Pagad.
“We want people to know that we are tiredof crime, we are tired of seeing our childrendie of drugs and we are tired of the uselesspolice in Parow,” says David Gow, a resi-dent of Glenlily and member of Pagad.
Ricardo Adonis, vice chairperson of thenew Pacrif neighbourhood watch, says hisgroup joined the march as they are desper-ate for support from the police.
“They do not respond to us. We do not getthe assistance that was agreed upon. Theyare supposed to send a vehicle to patrol withus, but they never do. Sometimes it takesthem two or three hours before they re-spond to a call from us,” he says.
He adds patrolling watch members oftenspot suspicious vehicles and people that of-ficial police alerts are out for, but still theyget very poor response.
“We gather a lot of data about the weeklyalerts and we will phone them with informa-tion, but often there is no response.”
Adonis says the watch understands thatthere is a profiling process, “but once analert is out, that process has been done. Wewant answers about what is happening tocases,” he says.
“We have pictures of policemen in uni-form going into drug houses on their own,coming out again after only a few minutes.If they are on patrol, they are supposed tobe a pair. What are they doing in there?”
He says in Parow Street alone there aresix houses where drug dealings are going
on. He claims many of these houses belongto one man and that the police know this butdo not act on the information.
He says neighbourhood watches are pa-trolling every night, but feel they cannotmake headway without proper support.
Sherm Arendse, one of the ConcernedResidents of Parow, spoke to the crowd thatturned up for the march before they took tothe streets followed by two police vehiclesand traffic services.
“Parow clinic, which is a place for thecommunity, was burgled recently. The Her-nus Kriel old age home was robbed lastweek. A woman was the victim of an armedrobbery in Van Eyssen Street. Gangstersand criminals are openly waiting for theirvictims. Our future leaders are hooked ondrugs. This is the kind of drama we witnessevery day. We are concerned for the aged
and the vulnerable,” she said and thenthanked the police for accompanying them.
“We rarely see you, as you are alwaysstanding down at some accident and cannotattend our calls,” she told them.
The group marched from the Parow dayhospital in Smith Street back to the day hos-pital.
“We have seen success with the smallamount of people we have had in the past,”Abdus Salaam from Pagad told the march-ers.
“Now we need to mobilise more people toeradicate the problem.”
When the marchers went past HernusKriel old age home, they stopped to reassureresidents there that they care for them.
“We would have liked to walk with them,but we are too slow,” three residents of thehome who stood outside, said.

ketball became involved with us this year.They sponsored all the balls. Zalia Hen-dricks, one of the residents, sponsored ban-ners, awards and paint for the court. Nowwe can have training for kids three times aweek,” he says.Mentoor says it is very important that so-
cial players should have the opportunity toaffiliate with clubs, so that their talent canbe recognised.And this is exactly what happened at the
DTS tournament.“I was very surprisedwith the talent I saw
here. Their careers can go so much furtherthan just playing socially,” says CalvinJean, vice president of Cape Town Basket-ball, who attended the tournament. CapeTown has 26 basketball clubs in Cape Townfor players of both genders from u.12 up tosuper league.Ricky Vigeland, the founder of DTS, says
he is pleased to see how this community-rooted programme is picking up speed withdonors and the City coming on board to sup-port them.“Our next event will be an amazing race
for families on 27 November. We are allabout play and entertainment and develop-ment. We are also planning a father andchild tented camp sleep-over with a braaisoon,” he says.V To become involved with DTS, contact Ricky Vigeland on 081 017 0774.

“In die vakansietyd sal die Wes-Kaap-se onderwysdepartement nie met skolekan kommunikeer oor aansoeke nie.Daarom vra ons dringend dat aansoekeafgehandel moet word voor die skoolsluit.

Anew neighbourhood watch in Belharis making a difference in the fightagainst crime.
Started in August this year, Old BelharPatrols (OPB) was formed by residents whowanted to work for better safety in theirneighbourhood.
Chairperson Gulzar Parker said that themain object of forming the group was tochange the perception that the area was asoft target for criminals.
“Old Belhar was notoriously known as a‘soft target’ area to criminals due to thelarge number of retired people and stu-dents living in the area,” he said.
“In a short space of time OBP managedto reduce crime drastically by deploying 24-hour volunteers to do patrols and monitorand report any activity that compromisesthe safety of our area.
“The criminals we deal with range fromarmed gangs, petty thieves, drug addictsand house burglars. Together with SAPSwe have apprehended children as young as13 for robbery and armed robbery of pedes-trians.
“Together with our patrollers we havehad overwhelming support from our resi-dents – over 200 residents on our Whatsappgroups are our eyes and ears.”V Residents from the area who would like to jointhem can contact Parker on 082 366 2312.

The festive season in the Cape has manymusical traditions, but when it comesto Christmas the sacred songs of the
Christmas band will always be welcomed.In Elsies River the Perseverance Christ-
mas band has been keeping this traditionalive since 1969 and still growing to give an-other generation the gift of music.JadeAdams is the group’s public relations
officer and very proud of their activities.“Most of our founder members have al-
ready passed on, but they would be proud ofhowwe’rekeeping their aimsalive,” he said.
“Their primary goal was to focus on thedevelopment ofmusic in the immediate com-munity of Elsies River and its surroundings.
“In the past our communities relied on the
education system for our musicians, but themusic education programmes in our schoolswere stopped by the department of educa-tion a long time ago.“In 1996wemade a decision to react to this
gap and a free structured music teachingprogramme was established. Surprisingly14newyoungmusiciansgraduated fromthisfirst programme during that first year.”Since 1996 over 500 learners have regis-
tered with the music teaching programme.In the process several churches and otherChristmas bands have benefited hugelyfrom the programme.The Christmas concert will be held at the
Rapha Pentecostal Church in Elsies Riverstarting at 17:00 with tickets costing R50.V For more information and booking Adams can becontacted on 061 169 1023 or email another[email protected].

An organisation in Elsies River is level-ling the playing fields for future leaders.On Saturday 7 November The Equilib-
rium All Star Leadership Academy host-ed their annual graduation ceremonywith the theme Reclaiming our youth aspersons of worth, at the I-Can Centre.Based at The Range High School the
academy is an after school leadership de-velopment programme.
Director of the NGO, Yolande Groep,explained they host a four-year pro-gramme for youth to encourage personaldiscovery and growth, self-reliance, per-severance, responsibility, service to thecommunity and adventurous journeys.
“We are in partnership with The Presi-dent’s award, which is a youth empower-ment programme with international rec-ognition. The award programme is a val-uable initiative to nurture and developcapacity in our young people. It is a direct
response to the many challenges that ouryouth faces, encouraging activities andattitudes that serve to empower youngpeople,” she said.
This year the event was well supportedby proud parents, dignitaries and com-munity members.
They were also motivated by guestspeaker Dr Reinette Minnies, who grewup on the streets of Matroosfontein butpersevered the same gang infested envi-ronment that many youth are exposed to.
She was the appropriate role-model forthe graduates as she spoke about thehardships and sacrifices that she had tomake to fulfil her dream of becoming amedical doctor, and the importance of set-ting positive goals for yourself.“Equilibrium’s vision is to take com-
munities from ‘chains to change’ throughinspiring, influencing, empowering themand to assist them to implement theirnewly learnt skills,” concluded Groep.V For more information about activities at theacademy call 021 931 7745 during office hours.

Milano staysin touchJOSEPH PILLAY
Milano United is slowly but surelygaining ground at the top of Safa’sABCMotsepe Second League compe-
tition. The team seems to be well on tracktokeep in touchwith the topdogs by the timeChristmas comes.Desmond Crowie, Milano’s coach, saw his
team fight off the challenges of FC CapeTown’s Rebels team to win 3-1 in GrassyPark over the weekend.The result means that Crowie’s charges
now boast 10 points (three wins and a draw,with one loss) after five league outings.The Grassy Park team occupies third
place on the log – one point behind defendingchampion Glendene United (11 points) andfive points behind log leader SteenbergUnit-ed (15 points), who has already played sixleague games this season.Nevertheless, Wade Crowie, son of former
PSL player and star coach Duncan Crowie
(now a youth coach at Ajax Cape Town), putin an excellent display to show great experi-ence on the field to place Milano United ina winning position, scoring off his first twoshots at goal.The visitors then reduced the deficit, but
RonwinGeorgehadotherplans and restoredMilano’s two-goal lead late in the secondhalfwith a well-taken goal of his own to securea 3-1 win for his team.
Other matchesIkapa Sporting from the Southern Cape
walked away with all three league points,flooring Black Cats 2-1 in Lawaaikamp.
