A resident of Eureka park who, accor-ding to friends, never faltered to helpothers, recently passed away.

Ms Dee Ladner (73) was born on 25November 1938 and grew up in Harris-mith and Durban. In the 1980’s shemoved to Carletonville with her latehusband, Colin, a dental technician,and was well-known for being an avidbowls player.

Although the family moved out ofCarletonville in the middle 1990’s, Deemoved back to the town in 2009.

At the time of her death she was stay-ing in Eureka Park. According to a goodfriend, Ms Yvonne Sabatino, Ladnerwas well-known and loved in the com-munity as she always handed outsweets to people whom she met intown. She also regularly went to buybread for other residents of EurekaPark. She also loved to do crosswordpuzzles. “She shared everything andwas always ready to help others. No-

thing was ever too muchfor her,” Sabatino says.

According to Sabati-no, Ladner went to Car-letonville Hospital on 4July for X-rays andblood tests after shewas feeling ill. She wassupposed to get the re-sults of the tests by 9July.

On Monday, 8 July, Sabatino went tocheck on her friend at about 16:45. Sa-batino had to get the assistance of herson when Ladner did not open her doorwhen she knocked. Ladner was disco-vered lying on her bed, with a cup ofcoffee beside her. She had already pas-sed away. It is thought that Ladnermight have died from a heart attack.

Ladner leaves behind two daughters,Karen, who lives in Australia, and Mau-reen, who stays in Durban. A memorialservice will be held on Friday, 19 Julyin the Carletonville Methodist Churchat 14:00.

A 20-year-old student lost her life in afreak accident at a local ‘adventure cen-tre’ during the past week.The centre, situated just outside

Fochville, is often used as a base campor place of accommodation for biggroups of students, and this is mana-ged by Ekhaya Accommodation andProperties in Carletonville.Although nobody at Ekhaya was wil-

ling to comment on the incident, a relia-ble source told the Herald that the stu-dents who live at the centre, for weekson end sometimes, are being trained atvarious governmental departmentsand mines in the area.According to Constable Elsie Tshon-

te of the Fochville SAPS, the studentswho are currently accommodated atthe venue are on ‘disciplinary training’in the area, and most of them are fromSoshanguve.“They could not give me much more

information than that,” said DetectiveWarrantOfficerCorinaGrobbelaar, theinvestigating officer from the Police in

Fochville.The accident happened at around

10:00 on Sunday morning, as a groupof studentswerewalking aroundon thepremises.According to Mr Boet Smit, the ow-

ner of the centre, this should not reallyhappen, as the entire farm is not availa-ble to them to use as they please. “Cer-tain areas can be used by the students,but others shouldn’t be,” he told theHe-rald.Smit also showedwarning boards all

over the equipment usually utilised du-ring team-building or “veld school “ ac-tivities. “This equipment should neverbe used, unless under supervision ofan instructor,” he explains.He says that, as far as he knows, Mr

MzimkhuluRatladi, theDirector of Ek-haya, did warn the students not toroam around and not to use the equip-

ment, unless under supervision of aninstructor.Ms Refiloe Chiloane (24) and a group

of friends, allegedly however, decidedto climb a tower with a foofy-slide (a ca-ble from one point to another with ahand-held apparatus over it, whichenables one to slide down the slantedcable) going down over a half-full dam.“We only fill the dam with water in thesummer months,” said Smit. “This iswhen many team-building groups co-me, and I then hire qualified instruc-tors.”Apparently a fewstudentswentdown

the slide, and then Chiloane wanted aturn. A source close to the Herald saysthat she was advised to refrain fromusing the foofy-slide, but insisted.Chiloane did, however, not slide fur-

ther than about two meters down thecable, before her hands couldno longer

handle the pressure and she let go, stillmeters up in the air. She fell to theground and died on the scene.The cause of her death shall only be

confirmed once the post mortem re-sults are received.A big warning board at the bottom of

the tower says, “High risk activity, clim-bing strictly prohibited. The use of thisactivity may only be done under quali-fied A.R.A instructors.”This board was either blatantly dis-

regarded or not seen, which is difficultto believe, judging by its size and visibi-lity.Mr Mzimkhulu, the CEO of Ekhaya

Properties, was contacted in connecti-onwith this accident, but he stated thathe was unable to comment, as the caseis still under investigation.Grobbelaar has opened an inquest

docket which will be investigated.

The life of a youngman was lost in ano-ther splurge of Khutsong gang violenceon Saturday evening, July 13.Mr. Alfred Monare (30), who alleged-

ly belonged to a gang, was stabbed todeath by a member of another gang.“The two gangs had engaged in a

squabble,” told Captain Florence Nda-beni from the Police in Khutsong, whoarrived at the murder scene.“We are not sure what the fight was

about, but the argument ended,” sheexplains. “As the gang, towhomMonarebelonged, moved toward Xhosa Secti-on, the other gang struck at around23:00”In the attack, Monare was the only

member who was stabbed. “He wasstabbed in the left side of his chest,”Ndabeni tells.Sergeant Robert Mohlongo of the

Inwoners van Carletonville wat naby die spoor-lyn deur die dorp woon, is vies oor die groot hoe-veelheid rommel wat in dié area gestrooi word.

Volgens me. Veronica Engelbrecht, wat inAdastraat net Noord van die spoorlyn woon, lykdie area reeds vir jare vieslik.

“Ek woon nou al vier jaar hier en dit lyk netal hoe vuiler,” het sy Maandag aan die Heraldgesê.

Volgens Engelbrecht loop baie mense in diesteeg aan die einde van dié straat langs die trein-spoor af voor hulle óf oor die brug oor die trein-

spoor stap, óf die treinspoor sommer te voetoorsteek.

Behalwe dat baie papiere oral langs die roeterondlê, gooi sommige mense ook swart sakkemet gemors langs die brug af. Selfs bourommelword op plekke langs die brug gestort.

“Die ergste is dat niemand ooit hier komskoonmaak nie al loop hier baie mense verby.Ek het die munisipaliteoit al baie oor die pro-bleem gebel, maar die gemors word nooit opge-ruim nie,” kla Engelbrecht.

Hoewel die Merafong City Plaaslike Munisipa-liteit oor die probleem gekontak is, is geen te-rugvoer teen druktyd ontvang nie.

Carletonville’s own radio station is another stepcloser to going on air.

Merafong FMwas finally gran-ted its class licen-ce for communityradio broadcas-ting from ICASA(IndependentCommunicationsAuthority ofSouth Africa) andcan now legallybegin to broad-cast for the com-munity of Mera-fong city.

“We take thisopportunity tothank at large thecommunity of Me-rafong city and all stakeholders from all areas inMerafong for making the dream of having a radiostation for our community possible,” said Mr Le-bohang Kgadi, the Station Manager of MerafongFM.

“Thank you for believing in us when there wasonly a laptop and a shabby office to prove our exis-tence and your commitment to bring change tothis community,” added Mr Alonios Pilusa, Stati-on CEO.

“We can assure you that this community will

never be the same again.”Getting to where they are today, took a lot of

will power, perseverance and endurance from themembers of this station.

As they raised funds, and only asthey raised funds, they were able toachieve certain goals.

By hosting a once-off music festivaland running a Merafong FM RadioAcademy, funds were raised to coverexpenses such as the rent and appli-cation for their license and the likes.

“To all Merafong Radio Academymembers, we would like to thank youfor your amazing contribution and en-suring that through your subscripti-ons as you learn, we are sustainablethus far,” said Mr Thabo Mokuke,Programmes Manager at MerafongFM.

Furthermore, these men say thatwithout ICASA, Voice of Wits, Wits Ra-dio days, and MDDA, their legitimacy

would not have been seen.“Without them, the bigger picture - that we are

also deserving of our own community radio stati-on, would have been missed.

“These major role players saw the bigger pictu-re and continued to educate us regarding radio.They were just the pillars we needed to pullthrough,” they say.

People who want to know more about the radiostation, can contact Pilusa at 073 77 0 0916 formore information.

Top management of Merafong FM hold thestation's license. They are Mr Lebohang Kgadi (Station Manager), Mr. Alonios Pilusa(CEO Merafong FM) and Mr Thabo Mokuke.

According to the results of a study rele-ased last week, residents of the Mera-fong City Local Municipality are of themost unhappy with the governmentservices rendered to them in the pro-vince.According to the Liveability Index re-

leased by the Solidarity Research Insti-tute, the dissatisfaction levels of resi-dents of Merafong, as measured in2011, are with those of Westonaria thehighest inGauteng. A total of 75% of re-sidents are satisfied with both waterand sanitation provision. Although on-ly 38% of residents are satisfied withthe cost of government services andbil-ling, this was not of the highest in Gau-teng.The report also noted that although

Merafong’s water delivery ranked onlyninth out of Gauteng, it did scoremuchhigher than previous years during theDepartment ofWaterAffairs’ BlueDropReport. Although all the sewerageplants in the municipal area receivedpoor ratings for the service of theirwas-te water, some of the plants fared excel-lently as far as compliance with chemi-cal standards are concerned, placing itin the fourth position in Gauteng in2012.With regard to municipal finances

the report noted that although the mu-nicipality has received unqualified fi-nancial audits during the past two ye-ars, the audit opinions, however, notedelectricity losses amounting to R27243 862. In the meantime, water to theamount of R16 174 583 was ‘lost’ du-ring last year. Both the electricity andwater losses were almost double thatof the previous year, showing an alar-ming upward trend.Some of the figures listed in the re-

port include that only 36,1% of house-holds live in a dwelling on a separatestand, while 20,5% live in an informalstructure not situated in a backyard.4,1% live in informal structures inbackyards while 33,4% live in workers’hostels and 3% in formal structures inbackyards. In the meantime, 36,4% ofhouseholds have runningwater in theirhomeswhile 40,6%have runningwateron their stands. A total of 22% obtainrunning water from an access pointoutside their stands.The municipality has a total popula-

tion of 197 520 of which 61,8% live in

rural conditions. 38,7% are betweenthe ages of 20 and 40. From all the resi-dents over 21 years old, only 18,1%ha-ve passed matric. In total, 75,3% of theMerafong population are between 15and 64 and are thus, theoretically, ofworking age. Of this group, 54,4 areemployed.One of the other issues listed in the

report is Merafong’s relatively low cri-me rate compared to that of other pla-ces in Gauteng.According to the researcher who

wrote the report, Mr Eugene Brink, theinformation used in it was mostly ob-tained from information that themuni-cipality and other government had lis-ted on their own websites. Some of theinformation was also gathered fromstudies done by the organisation Ra-tings Africa as well as the Universitiesof the Witwatersrand and Johannes-burg.In his comment on the report themu-

nicipality’s spokesman amongst otherthings pointed out that a mistake wasmade regarding the delivery of healthservices in the area. The report onlymentioned the Carletonville and Foch-ville Hospital as well as eightmunicipalclinics but failed to mention the LeslieWilliams Hospital and the fact that ma-ny residents work for mines and recei-ve health services from their employ-ers.He also pointed out that the report

also looked at services rendered byother government departments. It alsomentioned that some municipal servi-ces, such as water provision, was infact quite good and improving. He fur-ther noted that for residents in suchlow income groups as that encounteredin Merafong, the payment of municipalaccounts will always be a problem.

Various problems inMerafong

Adele Louw

Sparks flew during the past few weeksover possible job opportunities inKhutsong.A group of upset residents recently

contacted the Herald and complainedthat they were unhappy about the wayemployees are recruited to work onprojects in the area.“Themunicipality has no database of

all the people inKhutsongwhohave theskills to do certain kinds of work. It isour plan to set up such a database. Wealso want to develop a plan by whichresidents who need houses, can eitherbuilt it themselves or come to us andfind out who in their area have theskills to build the houses for them,”one of the group, Mr Themba Wisani,told the Herald.Wisani and other residents reasoned

that once such a plan is adopted, morepeople will be able to get employed ingovernment projects.The labour issue again came to the

fore this week when the groupmet withthe Mayor, Mr Maphefo Mogale Letsie,over the people who are supposed to beemployed to work on the project to re-build Khutsong Stadium.“We complained because there were

only a few people employed by Council-lor JomoMogale. OnMonday, theMay-or herself appointed someother people

to work on the project,” another mem-ber of the group, Mr Tumelo Sega-kweng, told the Herald. Segakwengclaimed to have a recording of the May-or appointing people.“What these people are saying is to-

tally incorrect and they are misleadingthe people. Neither Cnl Mogale nor theMayor ever directly appointed anyone.Such recruitments are done throughtheward councillors by themunicipali-ty’s Human Resources Department,”the municipality’s political spokes-man,Mr SlumsMagodielo, told theHe-rald on Tuesday.“The present labour force for the

Khutsong resettlement project isdrawn from a pool of identified indivi-duals with the necessary skills who re-side in wards adjacent to the project.This pool or list was drawn up by com-munity structures, which includes theelected ward councillors.“In this project the Community Lia-

son Officers of the project assist andact as a link between the communitystructures and the contractors,” Mago-dielo explained.“This is not the first time that grou-

pings of residents want to interfere inthe official process by drawing up theirown lists. Such actions, however, onlyhamper progress on the projects, in-crease the cost of the projects and in-terfere with the efforts of themunicipa-

lity to speed up service delivery,” Mago-dielo added.“Yes, I had nothing to do with it. The

young people involved in the projectemployed themselves by force,” Mr Jo-mo Mogale confirmed on Tuesday.He also invited the Herald to his hou-

se inMosenogi Street in Khutsongwhe-re members of the same upset grouprecently burned a tyre on the sidewalkopposite the house.According to a neighbour of Mogale

who is also the secretary of the area’sward committee, Mr Seth Moutlwatsi,about 30 to 40 people marched to Mo-gale’s house during lunch time on 20June and burned a tyre on the side-walk. They dispersed peacefully afterpolice arrived at the scene. Mogale wasnot at home when the incident happe-ned as he was attending a meeting inKrugersdorp.“I feel sorry for these people as I

know that they need jobs and feel thatwe are neglecting them. Unfortunatelywe cannot hire a large number of peo-ple that the contractor who has to dothe work, does not need,” Mogale toldthe Herald.

Sparks fly over new jobs

The Kopanang Afrika Community Centre is finally, af-ter years of waiting, a registered NPO (Non Profit Orga-nisation).

The founder of this centre, Mr Frans Motsumi fromKokosi, is persistent and will not give in until his re-quests are heard and someone takes action to help.

Motsumi and two elderly woman run the centre toge-ther. “We all work voluntarily,” Motsumi explains.

“And we like doing this. It’s not for us, it’s for thecommunity.” Motsumi decided to erect the centre ona stand which was previously a garbage dump. “Wecleaned it up and put our little wendy-house on thestand,” he explains. “We have, however, still not recei-ved proper support from within the private sector or

council.”The purpose of Kopanang Afrika is to look after

children during the day and after school. “There’s analarmingly high rate of unemployment and rape in Ko-kosi,” Motsumi tells. “Due to this, many young (or ol-der men) are home all day, and have small childrenat home with them, which often leads to molestationand rape.” He explains that the children are safe withthem during the day.

Motsumi says that all children should also be safeafter school, which is also why his centre takes careof them. “We teach them various different art forms,dancing, drama and constructive things to stay activeand educated all the same.”

At the same time, Motsumi aims at turning Kopa-nang into a reputable safe-house for rape and abuse

victims. “I dreamof being able tohelp these womenand children,” hesays. He also en-courages unem-ployed youth to gohelp out at thecentre.

“Come join inthe activities,” hesays. “It’s betterthan staying ho-me and doing no-thing.”

“We really needhelp and donati-ons,” Motsumipleads. “We beg ofthe mayor to helpus with this muchneeded services.”

Anyone whowould like to do-nate or fund, aswell as donatefood for thosewho go there, cancall Frans Motsu-mi at 079 5502378.

Henry en Richard Blackaby Kruispad

Waarom het jy nou die woordvan die Here geminag deur so ’nverkeerde ding te doen? Jy hetUrija die Hetiet met die swaarddoodgemaak en toe sy vrou virjou gevat. Ja, jy het hom ver-moor met die swaard van dieAmmoniete. - 2 Samuel 12:9.

Christene het baie eufemis-mes om ons oortredings te ver-bloem. Ons sê ons het terugge-val, of dis ’n slegte gewoonte, of’n oordeelsfout, of ’n oomblikvan swakheid. Partykeer wil onsdit wat ons gedoen het liewer niein die gesig kyk nie. Maar Godnoem altyd ’n oortreding wat ditwerklik is - sonde.

Toe Dawid teen Urija gesondighet deur owerspel met Urija sevrou te pleeg, het God Dawid se

sonde in ’n heel ander lig gesienas Dawid self. In plaas van dade-lik tot inkeer te kom, probeerDawid dit verbloem deur Urija telaat doodmaak. Miskien het hyheimlik gehoop God sal homhierdie een keer oorsien; hy hetimmers op so baie ander manie-re getrou aan God gebly. MaarGod sou nie Dawid se verskrikli-ke sonde oor die hoof sien nie.Selfs al was Dawid keer op keergehoorsaam aan God, was sysonde ’n belediging vir God. Da-wid het van beter geweet. Hy hetgeweet wat God van owerspeldink - en van moord - maar hyhet nogtans verkies om sy eieselfsugtige begeertes te vervul.

Ons vind soms verskoningsdaarvoor om God se Woord teminag. Ons mag dalk veronder-stel dat God ons sal vergewe enbehandel asof dit nooit gebeur

het nie. Onsdink ons on-gehoor-saamheid isnie so ’n ern-stige saaknie. Feit blyegter, as onssonde doen,minag onsGod seWoord. Asons miskienregtig soubesef hoeGod oor son-de voel, salons syWoord ern-stiger op-neem, Asons besef datons God en sy Woord beledig asons sonde doen, sal ons miskien

versigtiger wees om te doen watons weet verkeerd is.

Minagting virGod sewoord

Die verslag wat die afgelope week deur die na-vorsingsinstituut van die unie Solidariteit oordie toestand van dienslewering regoor Gau-teng uitgebring is, wys weereens dat alles hierby ons nie pluis is nie.

Hoewel van die regeringsdiens in Merafong‘n pluimpie verdien, is ons area se inwonersvan die ongelukkigste met dienslewering indie provinsie. Intussen het miljoene rande seelektrisiteit en water op een of ander wyse ooknet verdwyn. Om sake erger te maak, is diehoeveelheid geld wat vir elektrisiteit en waterverlore gegaan het, bykans dubbel soveel asin die vorige jaar, wat wys dat hierdie pro-bleem al groter begin word.

Intussen het ‘n verslag wat verlede jaar aandie Nasionale Raad van Provinsies voorgelê is,ook aangedui dat ons munisipaliteit onregma-tige uitgawes van R13 miljoen gemaak het.Wat het van hierdie geld geword?

Die koerant berig elke week oor allerlei klei-ner probleme waaroor inwoners kla. Hoeveelvan dié mense kon nie met die vermorste geldgehelp geword het nie?

Om dinge erger te maak, lyk dit asof ons mu-nisipaliteit besig is om op ‘n afdraende padmet betrekking tot onregmatige uitgawes tebeweeg aangesien daar gedurende die vorigejaar net R2,5 miljoen se onregmatige uitgaweswas.

Hoewel dinge seker op ander plekke ergerkan lyk, het die feit dat ons munisipaliteit net5 uit 10 vir dienslewering kry, ons saam metWestonaria as die swakste in die provinsie laatvaar.

Aangesien die navorsing op dié tydstip netin Gauteng gedoen is, is dit nie seker hoe onsmet die res van die land vergelyk nie.

Alles nie pluis nie

Wysneus wonder dikwels wat besoekers van ons oudorpie moet dink.

As gevolg hiervan is ou Wysneus veral oplettendna dinge wat verkeerd lyk in die dele van die dorpwat eerste deur moontlike besoekers raakgesienkan word. Wysneus glo nie noodwendig dat ‘n mensdie hele tyd bekommerd moet wees oor wat andervan jou dink nie.

In die geval van ‘n dorp kan mense wat net deurryof vinnig hier aankom om iemand te besoek, dalkegter soveel van die plek hou dat hulle besluit omself ‘n besigheid of selfs iets groter soos ‘n fabriekhier oop te maak. Sulke ontwikkeling kan op dieou end werksgeleenthede skep wat later net ons al-mal kan bevoordeel.

Iemand wat vinnig hier was, kan ook dalk andermense daarvan vertel wat op hul beurt tot ontwik-keling kan bydra. Ongelukkig is die teenoorgestel-de ook egter waar. Indien die plek so sleg lyk datniemand iets goeds oor ons te sê het nie, is ons kans

op ontwikkeling ook maar skraal.Met dit in gedagte wonder Wysneus wanneer ie-

mand tog iets aan die aaklige huis op die hoek vanAda- en Osmiumstraat in Carletonville gaan doen.Dié plek, wat reg tussen allerlei besighede lê, is alvir jare net half gebou. Aaklige hope bourommel lêoral in die tuin rond en sover Wysneus kan aflei,gebruik allerlei gurekarakters dit soms asoornagplek. Intussenmoes die brandweerook al bontstaan ombrande by die huis teblus.

Kan iemand nie ietsaan dié seer oog doennie? Hoekom moet an-der huis- en sake-eie-naars aan allerlei bou-regulasies voldoen ter-wyl die eienaar van diéhuis op die oog af met moord wegkom? Betaal dié

eienaar ooit iets soos eiendomsbelasting aandie munisipaliteit?

Intussen kyk Wysneus ook gereeld vas teenbeton-paaltjies aan die kant van ons stratewat nie meer só mooi regop is as wat hullehoort nie. In Kaolinstraat sowel as op diehoek van Oranje- en Van Zyl Smitstraat inOberholzer is van dié paaltjies, wat lyk virWysneus, opgesit is om te keer dat mense oor diesypaadjies ry, al vir maande plat op die grond.

Nou lyk dit kompleet soos ‘n heks met ‘n paaruit tande wat vir mens grynslag wanneer jy verbyhaar ry. Behalwe dat dit nie goed lyk nie, betekendit dat die eintlike rede hoekom die paaltjies opge-sit is - om mense van die sypaadjies te hou - niemeer van toepassing is nie.

Intussen lyk van die soortgelyke geel paaltjies inPalladiumstraat soos ‘n heks wie se grimering besigis om in die warm son af te smelt. Dié paaltjies waseeue laas geverf en die verf wat so besig is om afte skilfer, lyk al te sleg en stel nou regtig nie ‘n baiegoeie voorbeeld van hoe ‘n dorp moet lyk nie.

Wat dink besoekers?

Die aaklige halfgeboudehuis met die erf vol bourommel.

Die AWB (Afrikaner Weerstandsbewe-ging) het óók ‘n appeltjie te skil met diepersoonwat onlangs allerlei rassistiesegraffiti op twee mure in Carletonvillegeverf het.DieHerald het verledeweekberig dat

munisipale amptenare op 4 Julie ont-dek het dat iemand rassistiese slag-speuke sowel as die letters AWB metspuitverf op ‘n muur in Dolomite-ry-laan in Carletonville geverf het.Die graffiti is aan die buitekant van

betonmure om twee huise wat aan diemyngroep Sibanye Gold behoort, ge-verf. As gevolg hiervan het SibanyeGold ‘n saak van opsetlike saakbeska-diging by die polisie geopen. SibanyeGold sowel as die Merafong City Plaas-like Munisipaliteit het ook die daad tensterkste afgekeur. Intussen sê die AWBdat hulle nie iets met die voorval tedoen het nie. “Ons distansieer ons to-taal en al van sulke optredes,” het dievoorsitter van die AWB in die Wes-Rand, mnr. Paul Visagie, die afgelopeweek aan die Herald gesê.VolgensVisagie het die AWBniksmet

die voorval te doen nie en sal hullegraag die persoonwat daarvoor verant-woordelik is, in die hande wil kry om-dat die skuldige ook hul naam met syoptrede beswadder het.“Ons het reeds met die polisie ge-

praat en hulle sal ons laat weet indienhulle iemand arresteer. Ek het reedsmet ons leier gepraat en indiendieAWBuitvind wie hierdie persoon is, gaanons ‘n siviele regsgeding teen hom be-gin,” sê Visagie.Volgens hom woon daar geen AWB-

lede in die area waar die muur bemorsis nie. Die boodskap dat die organisa-sie na die skuldige op soek is, is egterreeds onder lede uitgestuur.“Indien hierdie persoon deel is van

ons, gaan ons van hom ontslae raak.Veral in die huidige tye is sulke optredeuiters onverantwoordelik,” het Visagiegesê.Volgens Visagie werk die AWB op dié

tydstip saam met die polisie om dieskuldige te probeer aankeer. Enige ie-mandmet inligting oor die vandaal kanVisagie by 083 281 6009 of kolonelWessel Prinsloo, die Carletonville-speurhoof, by 082 463 0236 skakel.

AWBsoek óók na verwer

Van die graffiti wat onlangs deur ’n rassistiese vandaal op die muur in Dolomiterylaangeverf is.

Voos paaie, plakkers oorkant besighe-de en riool wat dalk na huise kan oor-vloei.Dié is maar enkele van die probleme

wat inwoners vanWelverdienddie afge-lope week warm om die kraag gehadhet.Volgens ‘n eiendomsagent en oud-

raadslid van dié dorp, me. Lietta deBeer, is daar talle probleme in Welver-diend wat inwoners ongelukkig maak.“Kyknet hoe lykdié pad,” hetDeBeer

gekla terwyl sy Maandagmiddag na diepad-oppervlak op die hoek waar vrag-motors en ander padgebruikers in10de Laan indraai, wys. Volgens DeBeer lyk dié stuk pad deur die jare alhoe erger.Op dié tydstip is die pad só vol slag-

gate dat bestuurders mooi moet opletom die gate mis te ry.“En al mis jy die gate is jou wielspo-

ring steeds daarmee heen,” het De Beergekla. Wie gaan vir al die kere betaalwat mens garage toe moet ry om dit telaat instel?”Nóg iets wat inwoners dwars in die

krop steek is ‘n karavaan en informelewonings wat reeds vir jare oorkant be-sighede in 10de Laan staan.Hoewel netdie karavaan, waarin iemand sover be-kend woon, aanvanklik op die erf tesien was, het die ander informele huiseook mettertyd hul opwagting gemaak.Op dié tydstip lyk dit ook of die inwo-ners ou bande en ander herwinde rom-mel op die terrein bymekaarmaak.“Ek het van die begin af gekla maar

niemand het iets gedoen nie. Nou lykdit net al hoe slegter. Wat moet mensewat hier deurry van ons dorp dink?Sulke probleme maak dit bykans on-moontlik om enige eiendom hier opWelverdiend verkoop te kry,” het DeBeer aan die Herald vertel.‘n Ander probleem wat inwoners erg

bekommerd het, is ‘n nuwe riool-pompstasie wat op dié tydstip deur ‘nmunisipale kontrakteur langs 25steLaan opgerig word.Volgens een van die area se inwo-

ners, mnr. John Venton, is hulle reeds

ontsteld omdat riool gereeld van diepompe langs die Wonderfonteinspruitopstoot. Die stank en onhigiëniese toe-standewat daarmee saamgaan, dryf in-woners tot raserny.“Wat gaan gebeur indien riool uit

hierdie nuwe plek, wat baie nader aanons huise is, vloei? Watter waarborghet ons dat die munisipaliteit die on-derhoud wat nodig is, gaan doen,” hetVenton gewonder.MetdieHerald se aankomsbydienu-

we pompstasie het mnr. Giovanni No-wakowitsch, wat in beheer van die pro-jek se bouwerk staan, egter aangeduidat die struktuur wat gebou word net‘n pompstasie is wat riool uit onder-grondse pyplyne van die nuwe uitbrei-dings langsdieCarletonville-padnadieKhutsong-rioolwerke gaan pomp. Aldie pype, sowel as die pompe, is onder-grond. ‘n Baksteengebou sal wel bo-opdie pompe gebou word om die infra-strukte te beveiligmaardaar is, volgensNowakowitsch, nie ‘n kans dat die riooltot by huise kan uitvloei nie. ‘n Spesialekamer vir ‘n wag om die nuwe fasiliteit

op te pas, word ook as deel van die nu-we pompstasie opgerig.Hoewel mnr. Michael Dube van die

Gautengse paaie-department aangedui

het dat hy aandag aan die slaggate salgee, is geen terugvoer van die MerafongCity PlaaslikeMunisipaliteit oor die an-der probleme ontvang nie.

Welverdienders sien almeer rooi

Van die slaggate wat inwoners van Welverdiend se lewens versuur.

Die karavaan, informele huisvestings en afvalwerf reg oorkant besighede wat sommige inwoners ook warm om die kraag het.

Die perseel net meters van huise waar munisipale kontrakteursbesig is om 'n nuwe rioolpompstasie te bou.

Die misbruik van skoubordedeur sekere agentskappe in Pot-chefstroom is ‘n absolute ver-leentheid vir Pothefstroom. Pot-chefstroom word letterlik be-smet met ‘n magdomagentskapborde wat totaal en alteenstrydig is met die Raadsor-donnansie. Hierdie Ordonnan-sie het ten doel om die oprigting,vertoning en gebruik van tydeli-ke advertensies van watter aardookal, in of sigbaar van enigestraat of publieke plek te reël, tebeperk, te verbied, te inspek-teer, toesig daaroor te hou engeld daarvoor te hef.

Paul Kruger, direkteur SeeffNasionaal en Lisensiehouer Pot-chefstroom, is van mening datbogenoemde stelling ‘n ernstigebron van kommer is. Sy bekom-mernis spruit voort uit ‘n een-voudige vraag: Wat as al dieagentskappe ook die vergun-ning om borde op te rig, gaanmisbruik om te adverteer. Hy sêdit maak dit feitlik onmoontlikom mededingend te bly indienagentskappe nie dieselfde stra-tegie volg nie en gevolglik het hynou kwotasies aangevra om1 000 borde aan te koop en opte rig.Tydens ’n gesprek met mnr.

Malcolm Grimbeek van verkeerby Potchefstroom Munisipaliteitis hierdie toedrag van sake ookvir hulle ‘n ernstige bron vankommer. Die probleem is egter‘n gebrek aan mannekrag omhierdie wanorde te polisieer.Wat sê die munisi-pale ordonnansie?•Te koop bord-af-metings van bordemag nie groterwees as 600 mm x450 mm nie•Te koop-bordte-kens moet binne ofaan die grense vandie perseel opgerigof vasgeheg word.•Aanwystekens(skou rigtingaan-wyders): Hoog-stens twintig (20)mag op dieselfdetydstip vertoonword per skouhuisof eiendom wat tekoop of verkoopaangebied word•Geen aanwyste-ken mag langer as7 dae voor en 2 daena die betrokke ge-beurtenis vertoonword nie•Geen aanwyste-ken mag binne 1meter radius rond-

Kruger noem dat ‘n leemte indie Ordonnansie blyk te wees, isdie beperking op die aantal bor-de per agentskap, voor ‘n spesi-fiekte eiendom, asook die af-stand van een bord (veral skou-huis rigtingaanwysers) na dievolgende bord.Wat gebeur indien iemand ver-

suim om die tekens te verwyder:In die stadium absoluut NIKS!Die ordonnansie stipuleer egterbaie duidelik dat “Iemand wat,nadat tydelike advertensie ver-toon of laat vertoon het, versuimom dit te verwyder of te laat ver-wyder nadat vergunning daar-voor verstryk het of die vergun-ning daarvoor teruggetrek is ,begaan ‘n misdryf en benewensenige boetes wat betaal moetword, word die deposito wat aandie Raad betaal is, ook verbeur.”Die Ordonnansie maak selfsvoorsiening vir gevangenisstrafvir oortreders.

Kruger noem dat hierdie deelvan die Ordonnansie ook pro-blematies is. In die eerste plekword geen deposito’s gehef viragentskappe wat borde wil op-rig nie. In die tweede plek wordgeen boetes vir oortreders gehefnie.

’n Moontlike oplossing kanwees dat agentskappe wat bordewil oprig, jaarliks by die Munisi-paliteit moet registreer en ’n de-posito van R3 000,00 – R5000,00 betaal. Herhaaldelike

oortreders word dan beboet,hulle verbeur hul deposito enkan verbied word om weer eni-ge vorm van tydelike adverten-sies op te rig.Selfs op Nasionale Paaie word

die plasing van borde verbied,wat in elk geval totaal verbiedword deur die Nasionale Pad-verkeerswet. Die vraag kan metreg gevra word wie gaan verant-woordelik wees vir ’n ongelukwat veroorsaak word deuragentskapborde wat ’n bestuur-der op hoë spoed se aandag af-trek.

Hoe kan die publiek help omPotchefstroom skoon te kry vandie oorvloed agentskapborde?Kruger is van mening dat die pu-bliek agentskappe kan boikot ofweier om met hulle besigheid tedoen, indien hulle bewus is wiediegene is wat hierdie Ordon-nansie oortree. Verkopers kanook agente versoek om nie huleiendom soos ’n Kersfeesboomte laat adverteer nie. Die publiekkan ook die agentskap kontaken versoek om hul borde te ver-wyder, wat langer as die toegela-te tydperk opgerig is.Dit is duidelik dat daar skuiwer-gate in hierdie Ordonnnansie iswat deur agentskappe uitgebuitword. Kruger stel voor datagentskappe by die Sakekamerkan aansluit en ’n Forum virEiendomsagentskappe gestigkan word wat voorstelle aan dieRaad kan maak om hierdie pro-bleem te polisieer..

In die middel tagtigerjare het die He-rald van krag tot krag gegaan en diegroei wat vanaf die 1970’s beleef is, hetvoortgeduur. Op 12 Augustus 1983word berig dat, volgens ’n ouditverslag,albei uitgawes van die Herald die voor-afgaande ses maande ’n stygende le-serstal gehad het.’n Onafhanklike lesersopname wat

aan die einde van 1982 gedoen is, hetbevind dat die Herald-koerante gemid-deld 82% van die huishoudings in dieonderskeie lesersgebiede bereik.’n Leserskapstudie wat in 1987 ge-

doen is, bring aan die lig dat 74% vandie mense in die streek waarin die He-rald versprei word dié koerant lees. Ditsluit Carletonville in.Die Buro virMarkte enMedia (BMM)

het in 1991, in samewerking met dieHerald, dié marknavorsingsprojek virdie koerant gedoen oor die koopge-woontes van sy lesers.Die Potchefstroom Herald van 9 Au-

gustus 1991 verduidelik die doel vandie projek.Dit was om enersyds aan die redak-

sie inligting te gee oor lesers se leesge-

woontes enhul siening vandie koerant.Die advertensie-afdeling wou ook inlig-ting inwin oor mense se koopgewoon-tes.Inligting is bekom deur vraelyste wat

deur die Herald-personeel opgestel isen gestuur is aan lede van BMM se pa-neel in die verspreidingsgebied van diePotchefstroom en Carletonville Heralden in die Noord-Vrystaat.Afgesien daarvan dat die studie toon

dat die Herald die beste koerant in diestreek was, is nog bevindings gemaak.-73% van lesers en adverteerders

meen dat hulle “waarde vir geld” krydeur die Herald te lees en daarin te ad-verteer.-92%meen dat die diens van Herald-

personeel van goeie en hoogstaande ge-halte is.-55% van die mense in die streek het

al in die Herald geadverteer.-87% gebruik die Herald om aanko-

pe te doen.-71% van die adverteerders stem

saamdat hulle goeie tot uitstekende re-sultate met advertensies in die Heraldkry.

Studies bewys datHerald se leserstal steeds groei

In 1984 vier die Carletonville Herald symondigwordingmet die publikasie van’n spesiale bylae getiteld ‘Reeds u ven-ster vir 21 jaar – Your window for 21years’. Dié bylae was die breinkind vanmnr. Faan Jacobs, destydse bestuur-der van die koerant. Dit het op 27 Julieverskyn.Die redaksionele inhoud van die by-

laewasdiewerk vanEssie Steyn, IreineHandley, Engela Holtzhausen en Elsa-be Coertse. Om dit te kan doen, moeshulle ondermeer sowat 35 000 bladsyese beriggewing in ou Heralds nagaan.Die bylae is ’n hele 60 bladsye dik.Benewens die geskiedenis van die

koerant verskyn ’n lywige artikel geti-teld ‘Kritiek enNavrae’. Vrae wat hierinbeantwoord is, blyk universeel te weesby baie plaaslike koerante en baiespreek daarvan dat die lesers van ’n ge-meenskapskoerant besit neem van diekoerant en ongelukkig raak as die koe-rant nie die hoeveelheid en soort nuuspubliseer wat ’n leser of belangegroepverwag nie.Een lui so: “Word daar nie onder-

skeid gemaak as daar oor dieselfde on-derwerp vir twee verskillende menseverskillende publisiteit gegee word nie.Byvoorbeeld: wanneer die burgemees-tersvrou van Carletonville ’n tee aan-

bied en ’n hele bladsy word daaraan af-gestaan, maar met die burgemeesters-vrou van Fochville se tee word tweefoto’s gepubliseer?”Die antwoord was heel diplomaties:

“Mens kan soveel skryf en publiseer aswat daar is om te skryf en te publiseer.As iets interessants op een plek gesê ofgedoen word wat nuuswaardig is, kan’n mens baie daaroor skryf, maar asniks gebeur nie, kan niks geskryf wordnie.”Nog ’n vraag is: “Is dit nodig om hof-

berigte wat iemand in ’n slegte lig stel,te publiseer?”In ’n lang verduideliking word gesê:

“Die ironie van die saak is dat die skul-dige sy eie naamdeur diemodder sleepdeur aanvanklik die oortreding te be-gaan.” En verder: “Daar is ’n redewaar-om hofsake in die ope hof gehou en diepers daar toegelaat word en dit is ’n oujuridiese gesegde wat lui dat “Reg niealleen moet geskied nie, maar dat daartoegesien moet word dat die reg ge-skied”.

Eerste 21jaar geviermet bylae

So lyk die voorblad van die bylaewat in 1984uitgegee is toe die Carletonville Herald 21jaar oud geword het. Dié bylaewas die brein-kind van mnr. Faan Jacobs, die destydse be-stuurder.

Veels Gelukalle voorspoed vir die

volgende

50 jaar


Veranderings binne Naspers, eerderas plaaslike omstandighede, het geleitot die totstandkoming van MooiVaalMedia, diemaatskappywat vanaf 1999die eienaar geword het van die Carle-tonville Herald en sy susterskoerante,die Potchefstroom Herald en die

Noordwes Gazette.Die rede hiervoor was dat diemedia-

reus Caxton ’n 50%-aandeel in Rap-port gehad het wat Naspers lank reedswou bekom.’n Deel van die aandele in die destyd-

se Nasionale Streekkoerante is in ruil

daarvoor aan Caxton gegee.Een van die Herald se ou stalmaats,

Vaalweekblad, was toe reeds 50% inbesit van Caxton. Dit het op sy beurtplaasgevind nadat Caxton ’n opposi-siekoerant, Vaal Ster, in die Vaaldrie-hoek gestig het en dié twee koerante

mekaar so benadeel het dat die eie-naars besluit het omdie twee te verenigmet gesamentlike aandeelhouding inVaaldriehoek-uitgewers. Daar is uit-eindelik besluit om Nasionale Streek-koerante en Vaaldriehoekuitgewers tekonsolideer en die nuwe maatskappy

sou dus MooiVaal Media heet,met Caxton en Naspers diemede-eienaars.Die huidige mede-eienaar

van die Herald, Caxton, is ’nmediareus in eie reg. CaxtonBeperk het in 1902 ontstaanas ’n skryfbehoeftewinkel enalgemene drukkery in Preto-riusstraat in Pretoria. ’n Late-re eienaar, Felix Stark, het, na’n besoek aanAmerika, besluitom te begin met die uitgee vangratis tuiskoerante (knockand drop).Teen 1978was daar agt koe-

rante wat so gepubliseer is.Terrence Moolman en NoelCoburn het dié jaar die maat-skappy gekoop en lei dit vanaf’n maatskappy met ’n omsetvan R2 miljoen na een met ’nomset van R800 miljoen tienjaar later.Benewens talle ander belan-

ge gee die maatskappy vandagThe Citizen en meer as 90 ge-meenskapskoerante uit.Die Herald is dus nou in be-

sit van twee van die grootstemediamaatskappye in dieland.So het daar een administra-

tiewe kantoor vir die twee totstand gekom. Die naam issaamgestel uit dié van die tweerivierewat die twee gebiede be-dien, naamlik die Vaal- en dieMooirivier.MooiVaal Media is die uitge-

wer van die Carletonville enPotchefstroom Heralds,Noordwes Gazette, Vaalweek-blad, Vaal Weekly, Ster, VaalVision,Meyerton Pos en Sasol-burg Bulletin geword. Die eer-ste seniorbestuurder vanMooiVaalMediawasDirkUys,wat opgevolg is deur Rassievan Zyl.Tans is Thys Foord die se-

nior bestuurder. Hoewel Cax-ton ’n mede-eienaar is, worddiemaatskappy deur Naspersbestuur.

DieHeralds verwissel in 1999weer ‘n keer vaneienaar

In 2001 het die redaksie van die Potchefstroom en Carletonville Herald en die NoordwesGazette ’n spanboudag gehou. Drie redaksielede van die dagblad, Beeld, het kom help metopleiding. Voor is Cheryl Botha, Hennie Stander (redakteur van die Potchefstroom en Carle-tonville Herald), Carina Smith (Carletonville) en Dirk Uys, senior bestuurder van MooiVaalMedia, uitgewer van die koerante. In die middel is (gebukkend) Kiewiet Scheppel (Carleton-ville), Karen Engelbrecht en Christal-Lize Thomas (Potchefstroom). Agter is Jeanne Boshoff(Potchefstroom), Christine van derWesthuizen (Carletonville), Louise Laubscher (nag-nuus-redakteur van Beeld), Caren Swart (Potchefstroom), Andries Gouws van Beeld en SonetteFourie (Potchefstroom). Ons sê jou sê


1963Die eerste Carletonville Herald is in

1963 nog op die oumanier gemaak. Sohet die eertydse drukker, mnr. JimmyJohnson, in 1984 die proses verduide-lik.Nadat die kopié van die koerant na

die drukkers gestuur is, is dit deur diedrukkers geset.Johnson vertel: “The type was set by

a machine which has a keyboard likethat of a typewriter. The compositor oroperator sat and typed like a typist.When the operator struck akey, a brassmatrix in which the letter was engravedwould fall out of the magazine and en-ter a holder. The same process was re-peated when the next letter of a wordwas typed. When a full word has beentyped the operator struck the symbolfo a space.“When a line had been set the opera-

tor worked a lever, and a mechanicalarm in the machine inserted the matri-ces into the machine’s foundry wherean impression of the line was cast inlead. The metal was used in a moltenstate.“The line of words was received into

a tray, called a galley, in which the lineswere accumulated until the completenewspaper was set.“When the entire story was set the

whole column of lines was placed in ametal tray and locked up in a frame.“A roller coated with printer’s ink

was passed over the trays of metal. Asheet of paper was placed on them anda heavy roller rolled over it. An imprint(“proof”) of the story was left on the pa-per.“This print was then proof read for

major errors. Once this task was com-pleted the metal tray of type was trans-ferred to the letter press where the me-tal was inked and sheets of newspaperprinted.”1975Vanaf Februarie 1975 is die Carle-

tonville Herald op Potchefstroom ge-druk. Die Herald Drukkers (nie ver-want aan die koerant nie) het in 1973’n nuwe rolpers in gebruik geneem.Hierdie litografiese drukpers wat in-

gevoer is, is die eerste een in Suid-Afri-ka wat deur die drukkers van ’n platte-landse koerant in gebruik geneem is enwas toe een van die modernste van sysoort in die land.Groter spoed enmeerlitografiese moontlikhede was die be-langrikste voordele van die nuwe rol-pers.Voorheen is elke bladsy van die koe-

rant afsonderlik gedruk. Wanneermeer as een kleur op ’n bladsy gebruik

is, is elke kleur afsonderlik op elkebladsy gedruk, ’n tydsame proses.Daarna is die bladsye op ’n afsonderli-kemasjien gevou endeur spanne vrouemet die hand bymekaargevoeg.Die Potchefstroom Herald van 5 Ok-

tober 1973 was die eerste koerant watop die nuwe drukpers gedruk is en dieeienskappe daarvan word in ’n berighierin, só verduidelik: “The Pacer 36can print up to four colours simultane-ously . . . which is a great time savingfactor. At its maximum speed the Pacercan print 20 000 newspapers an hour.Newspapers come off the Pacer 36 fol-ded and ready for distribution – ano-ther time saving factor. (It) can print upto 24 pages in one run.”Met dié dat die koerant op Potchef-

stroom gedruk is, het dit beteken datdie kopié weekliks van Carletonville naPotchefstroom geneemmoes word. Ditwas een van die take van Faan Jacobs,bestuurder wat vanaf 1979 by die Car-

letonville Herald begin werk het en opPotchefstroom gebly het. Gerrie Wes-sels onthou in 1988, toe die Potchef-stroom Herald 80 jaar oud was, ookhoeveel kilometers só afgelê is.Later het mev. Kiewiet Scheppel, re-

dakteur vanaf 1988 tot 1998, vertel:“Ons het elke Dinsdagaand ons kopié(getik) en foto’s (swart en wit) met ’nvoertuig deurgestuur na Potchef-stroom.ElkeWoensdagmiddag het onsPotchefstroom toe gery en in die ateljeeingebondel omdie bladsye te proeflees.Veranderinge is per hand aangebring,wat terug is drukkery toe en weer oor-geset moes word. Dié Woensdae is dik-wels in winterdae in die donker afge-sluit.”1994In 1994 het die Carletonville Herald

opdie vooraandvan ’nnuweopwinden-de fase gestaan indie produksie vandiekoerant. Kiewiet Scheppel skryf in ’nbylae wat op 25 November 1994 ver-

skyn het só daaroor:“Die Carletonville Herald betree

eersdaags ’n opwindende nuwe tydvakwanneer die koerant feitlik volledigmet rekenaar persklaar gemaak salword.Die Herald maak huidiglik nog ge-

bruik van tikmasjiene (nie elektriesnie) en die ou “spoeg-en-plak” wyse.Alle kopié word tans op die onder-

skeie bladsye sorteer vanwaar dit nadie Potchefstroom-kantoor geneemword.”Sy vertel verder dat alle kopié eers

taalversorg word voordat deur die sub-redakteur van “koppe” (koeranttaal viropskrifte) voorsien. Daarna is dit nadie Herald Drukkery geneem om geseten geplak te word.Wanneer die nuwe rekenaarstelsel in

gebruik geneem word, sou dit betekenhet dat die spertyd ’n dag later sal wees.Mev. Scheppel skryf dat die perso-

neel toe met groot verwagting uitgesienhet na dié vernuwing.2012Alhoewel die Carletonville Herald

wel ’n kantoor in dié dorp het, word diékoerant vanaf Potchefstroom bestuuren uitgegee. Die bladopmaak, adver-tensie-ontwerp, bemarking en verskeieadministratiewe take vind in Potchef-stroom plaas.Die elektroniese koerantmaakpro-

ses waarna in 1994 uitgesien is, is in1995geïmplementeer. Indie 2008Eeu-feesuitgawe van die Potchefstroom He-rald word dit só verduidelik:“Verslaggewers stoor hulle berigte

elektronies opdie koerant se rekenaar-netwerk, vanwaar die persoon wat diebladuitleg doen dit onttrek en na dieblad kopieer. Wanneer die blad gereedis, word dit per internet na die drukke-ry versend waar die etsplate gemaakword.Die proses om oor te skakel na elek-

troniese bladuitleg is oor ’n tydperkvan ongeveer ses maande ingefaseer.Aanvanklik is net enkele blaaie elektro-nies uitgelê, en later, toe die personeelmeer vaardig met hierdie proses was,is al hoe meer bladsye só uitgelê.Dit het maar met baie stampe en sto-

te gepaard gegaan, het mnr. HennieStander, redakteur vertel. Geen nuwepersoneel is aangestel om hierdie taakte verrig nie. Subredakteurs wat oor ja-re nog bladuitleg op die ou manier ge-doen het, is gaandeweg hierin opgelei.Nie alleen moes die persoon rekenaar-vaardigheid aanleer nie, maar hullemoes ook hulle vrese vir rekenaarsoorkom.Aanvanklik is daar nie veel tyd met

elektroniese uitleg gespaar nie. Dit hetegter die taak van die setters by diedrukkery heeltemal uitgeskakel, watongelukkig beteken het dat hulle posteoorbodig geword het. Die enigste be-sparing wat daar dus wel was is perso-neel-gewys, want toe kon dieselfde hoe-veelheid bladsye met heelwat minderpersoneel uitgegee word.Dit is eers toe die koerant in 2004net

digitale foto’s begin gebruikdat die heleuitlê-proses meer vaartbelyn en tydbe-sparend geword het. In die tussenperi-ode toe bladsye elektronies uitgelê is,maar daar nog van foto’s wat van filmsafgedruk is, gebruik gemaak is, is dieblaaie uitgelê, maar daar is oop ruim-tes gelaat waar die foto’smoes ingeplakword. Die drukkery het dan soos voor-heen, die bromides gemaak en in dieruimtes geplak.”Nadat Nasionale Pers in 1996 dieHe-

rald Drukkery gekoop het en die He-rald-koerante en Herald Drukkeryweer aan dieselfde eienaar behoort het,het dié drukkery steeds die Heralds ge-druk.In 2009 het ’n baie lang era in die ge-

skiedenis van die druk van die Heraldsten einde geloop toe die Herald Druk-kery sy deure gesluit het en die Heraldsin Johannesburg deur Paarl MediaGauteng gedruk is. Dié drukkers kan’n drukoplaag van 10 000 tot drie mil-joen eksemplare druk.

Koerantdruk verander deur die jare

Hierdie gebou in Olënlaan in Potchefstroom was vir sewentig jaar die tuiste van die Herald Drukkery. Dié drukkery het van 1975 tot2009 die Carletonville Herald gedruk.

So lyk die loodsetmasjiene waarmee koerante vroeër geset is. Die setter is mnr. Jan Vorsterwat 53 jaar lank by die Herald Drukkery gewerk het.


Toe die Carletonville Herald in 1969tweede kom in die wedstryd om dieHultzer-trofee, is dit as ’n groot presta-sie beskou.

Dié trofee word jaarliks toegekenaan die beste gemeenskapskoerant indie land.

Inskrywings is op grond van tegnie-se versorging beoordeel en mnr. Jim-my Johnson, eienaar van die destydsedrukkers van die Carletonville Herald,het heelwat bygedra tot dié prestasie.

Die Carletonville Herald skitter in1994 in die Sanlam-toekennings virdie Suid-Afrikaanse gemeenskaps-pers.

Al vier redaksielede van die Carle-tonville Herald en een advertensiever-teenwoordiger was onder die tien fina-liste in verskeie afdelings.

Die redakteur, mev. Kiewiet Schep-pel, het in die afdeling vir ondersoe-kende joernalistiek ’n derde plek ver-werf. Dié inskrywing het gehandel oordie ontevredenheid van boere oor diekwaliteit van water in die Oberholzer-besproeiingstelsel, wat later op ’n hof-saak uitgeloop het.

Mev. Carol de Waal het ook met ’ninskrywing in dié afdeling 70% behaal.

In die afdeling vir nuus oor plaaslikeregering het sy ook onder die eerstetien geëindig.

’n Inskrywing oor krokodille enFochville se burgemeestersvrou be-sorg mev. Magriet van der Merwe 88%

in die afdeling vir spesialis artikels.Mev. Thalia Anderson behaal die vier-

de plek in die afdeling vir menslike nuusen behaal 82% met haar inskrywing.

Sy het ’n wye reeks artikels ingeskryfoor onder meer ’n baba wat te vroeg ge-bore is, ’n Maltese poedel wat twee kony-ne grootmaak, ’n vroue geoloog wat on-dergronds werk en ’n berig uit die swartkoerant, Seipone.

Drie advertensies van mev. AmandaPienewald het haar ’n vierde plek in dieafdeling vir advertensies besorg.

In die Nissan/Capro-toekennings van1994 ontvang die Carletonville Herald‘n merietesertifikaat, terwyl dit in 1996die streeks- sowel as die nasionale wen-ner van dié kompetisie was.

In die Nissan/Capro-toekennings van1997 was beide die Potchefstroom enCarletonville Herald onder die eerstedrie plekke in die Gauteng/Noordwes-streek.

In 1998 behaal die Potchefstroom enCarletonville Herald elk ’n tweede plekin die kompetisie vir gemeenskapskoe-rante om die Hultzer-trofee.

In die Nissan/Capro-kompetisie virkoerante met ’n sirkulasie van minderas 8 000 wen die Carletonville Heralden die Potchefstroom Herald behaal dietweede plek. In die Sanlam-kompetisieis die Potchefstroom en CarletonvilleHeralds saam negende in die afdelingvir die Beste Voorblad.

In 2009 het me. Adele Louw met diederde plek in die Sanlam-toekenningsse Fotograaf van die Jaar-afdeling weg-gestap.

Die Carletonville Herald was onder meer in1996die landwyewenner vandieNissanCa-pro-kompetisie.

“The main goal is to reach the finalsand bring the cup home for the firsttime in the history of the team’s exist-ence.” says coach Rasi.

“The team is made up of a youngcommitted bunch of players with ex-ceptional pace and hand skills. Themain focus was to create tactical aware-ness and mental fitness regarding eachgame they play.” says Rasi.

It has been an exciting season so farfor the coach, considering the fact thatRasi was coaching a more experiencedteam when he was with Eastern Leo-pards last season. This team went onto win the SAMSA (South African Min-ing Sports Association) 2012 tourna-ment with Lonmin team but SavukaCheetahs has posed a different chal-lenge to him. As a coach the boys willstretch him beyond his limitations.

The team is currently number two onthe log behind Kloof with two pointsseparating the two teams.

In the log Kloof is currently first with40 points while the Cheetahs team issecond with 38 points.

The Eastern Leopards team is thirdwith 35 points while the Mighty Greensare fourth with 31 points.

The Savuka Cheetahs rugby team isshowing that they are becoming a forceto be reckoned with.

This team has been playing very wellso far with the players showing moremental strength than before coach Jas-on Rasi started to work with them.

The Cheetahs started the league wellby triumphing over the Impala rugbyteam on the home ground as they wonthe game 40-21.

They went on to lose the second gameto Kloof Lions away from home with ascore of 25-13. A lack of concentrationand failure to adhere to the game planas well as their playing patterns costthem the match.

Losing to Kloof Lions was a learningcurve as they trained very hard for ahome game against Mighty Greens ofVaal Reefs. The Cheetahs won this nailbiting encounter with 22-11 points.

Savuka Cheetahs has played 11games, winning 8, and losing 3 so farthis season.

They have also turned the SavukaRugby Stadium into the “house ofpain,” and still has to lose a game athome, which is not likely to happensaccording to the excited Rasi.

All three losses were on the firstround and all the team’s short termgoals seem to be within their reach.

Their plan is to win all their homegames of which they have only leftagainst Driefontein. The second shortterm goal is to win all second roundgames.

They have played four other teams sofar and won all, beating the top threeteams on the log, namely the EasternLeopards, Kloof Lions and MightyGreens.

Only three games remain in the sec-ond round of which victory is possible.

Laying at the agony of forgiveness.I was running for my life with my

heart in my throat, I could feel my heartbeating in my mind.

I arrived at a scene that once againtook my breath away, lightning struckthrough my body once more and this iswhat they call shock but is it shockwhen reality is what you see.

The very same picture plays in mymind over and over, a body bag, a knifeand there goes a life. Tears couldn’twash away the blood that was spillednor can justice bring back a life that wastaken.

I still have sleepless nights with mymind boggling over human behaviour,something words can not explain.

Lord, where does this fear come frombecause it’s definitely not from you?

They say the truth will set you free,yet man walks free and not because oftruth. A vision appears to my mind butthe heart becomes frustrated and it fillsmy marrow with poison that rewritesmy life code. This virus has no anti-vi-rus just like a life taken not be broughtback. Our Saviour, please save us from

our fears, I cry. But our fear should notbe what it ought to, our fear should beGod himself. Then the question is whyplay God and take a life when only Hecan do so and that will remain a ques-tion unanswered because our God isjust. Talking of just, we can’t leave ourpain just as it is, it needs soothing. Wefeel abolished just as we are, but justicedoes not come from this world. It is ourGod that’s just and He won’t leave usjust as we are. He will play his role.

Talking of role even soothing wordscan’t stop the tears from rolling, we can’tsleep at night, we are rolling..

So my angel spoke about forgivenessbut we aren’t perfect beings. When wehurt we want to fight fire with fire.

This fire will only retire when justiceis served and God bring us understand-ing of this justice. Bring us peace ofmind or perhaps borrow us a piece ofyour mind Lord so we can take the pillcalled forgiveness so it can soothe ourpainful hearts, stop our poundingheads and cease our anxiety. The bloodthat flowed and agony of forgiveness,perhaps we shouldn’t lose sight of theblood that forgives when it was flowingout of agony.

Hatting, is delighted to help out wherehe can aand the gang got together to as-sist Steenekamp as he recently joinedthe club. The club also donated 15 blan-kets to the needy group.

The Sibanye Gold runners hasonce again shown their steel atthe 67 km Khaya FM MandelaRelay this past Sunday.

The very ecstatic mixed teamgeared up their Sibanye col-ours to run a golden time andas predicted by Head of Sports,Mr Sydney Mdluli, the team didwhat they came to do.

The Sibanye team won themixed category with a flashingtime of 5 hours 39 minutes.The team, known for usuallybringing home more than onemedal, also won the miningand agriculture category in adashing time of 3 hours 57minutes.

What made managementeven more proud than just see-ing the beautiful colours andthe Sibanye flag flying throughthe streets of Johannesburg onSunday was the togethernessor the “oneness” that the teamdisplayed throughout the race.

The Mandela Day raceserved two purposes for Siban-ye. The first was to honour TataMadiba but also to display whoSibanye Gold is. “As I walked

through the crowds, manypeople asked: ‘“What is Siban-ye Gold and what do they do?”’

“I fortunately found myselfan easy answer that I used foreveryone that asked the ques-tion.”

“We are Gold Diggers- liter-ally, and we do it well…if youdon’t believe me check out ourrunning team,” said teammember Khaya Sibeko, Miner-al Resources Manager at Kloof.

He so wishes that one day, allwill participate in such sportsevents, not only to stay, lookand feel good, but also to beambassadors of healththrough sports. Sibeko andthe team believes that some ofthe health issues they deal withcan really be avoided.

Sydney Mdluli would like toforward his greatest aprecia-tion to the team.

Mdluli would like to person-ally thank the Sports and Rec-reation department, ButchDrotski and his team and alsoBenjamin Monyane and histeam.

“They all play a big role in thesuccess of the team,” Mdlulisaid as his face lights up.

Die SANSSUspan wat vanjaar na die VSA getoer het, kon die SuidAfrikaanse vlag met trots hoog hou.


Toe die Corner House-groep in 11Julie 1937 met ontwikkeling by Bly-vooruitzicht begin het, het hulle diepioniers van prospekteerwerk in dieomgewing, Gold Fields, voorgespringom die eerste myn op die West-Wits-lyn te open.Ten spyte daarvan dat Gold Fields

diemeeste van die grond in die omge-wing opgekoop het, het Corner Hou-se 724 morg bekom, omring deurGold Fields se 4 000.Die Blyvooruitzicht Gold Mining

Company,metR.S.G. Stokes as voor-sitter en B.A.D. Kinahan as bestuur-der, is gestig en het hiermet prospek-teerwerk begin. Later het BarlowRand Limited Corporation al die be-lange van die Corner House-groepoorgeneem, ook dié van Blyvooruit-zicht.Die eerste tonnels is op 14 No-

vember 1937 oopgeskiet en in 1942is begin met die prosessering vanerts. Die eerste goudstaaf is in 1942gegiet. Teen 1948 het die myn ’n to-tale wins van £2 486 519 getoon enis beskou as die myn in SA met diebelowendste groeipotensiaal.Die Potchefstroom Herald van 19

Januarie 1945 skryf só oor diemyn:“The Miracle Mine continue to pro-mise to be the richest mine openedin theRand’swhole history”.DieHe-rald was onder die verkeerde in-druk dat dié myn naby Klerksdorpwas.Mynbedrywighede op Blyvooruit-

zicht het geleidelik toegeneem. In1938 is 73 blankes in diens geneemen in 1948 was daar 585. In 1938was daar 478 swartes in diens en in1948 was daar 3 915.Teen 1948 was die Nr 1, 2 en

3-skagte al gesink. Gedurende dievyftigerjare was die Blyvooruitzicht-

goudmyn die wêreld se rykste goud-myn.Dié myn het in 1949 ’n eerste be-

haal toe daar toetsaanleg vir die ek-straksie van uraan op die myn segrond in bedryf gestel is. Die volgen-de jaar is uraan gevind en vanaf 1953is dié grondstof geproduseer.Terwyl die Nr. 1- en 2-skag die

hoofbron van winste in dié jare was,het die goudriwwe in diewestelike ge-deeltes van die myngrond teleurge-stel. Ondergrondse skeure gevul metwater het produksie vertraag.Heelwat tyd is bestee aan sementa-

sie. Toerusting moes aangebringword om die water uit te pomp en indie 1950’s is sowat 66 960 000 liter

water daagliks weggevoer.Aan die einde van die 1950’s is nog

skagte gesink.DieNr. 4-skag, buite die noordelike

grense van die myn, is gesink om asventilasiekamer te dien vir onder-grondse verdieping, ver van die op-pervlakte. Dit moes ook die myn sepompreëlings aanvul.Produksietempo in die ryker oos-

telike dele het in die 1960’s afge-neem. Die arbeidstekort het hiervoordie skuld gekry. Andersyds was dieproduksie van uraan en die suuraan-leg wat in 1957 opgerig is, winsge-wend. Ná die dramatiese sinkgatevan die sestigerjare is daar R200 000bestee om hoofsaaklik die inwoners

van die woongebied Westdene na vei-liger huise te verskuif. Boonop het103 mynwerkers bedank, terwyl net38 diens aanvaar het.Goudmynbedrywighede het voort-

gegaan, maar die produksie vanuraan is gestaak tot die problememet die onstabiele grond opgelos konword.In 1968 is daar besluit om die

goud- en uraanaanleg teen ’n bedragvan R9,5 miljoen op ’n ander terreinop te rig.In die middel sewentigerjare het

die grondversakkings gestabiliseer.Terselfdertyd het die goudprys ge-styg, wat die myn se vooruitsigte ver-beter het.

In 1976 isR10 –12miljoenbesteeom die uraanaanleg te vergroot, ter-wyl nog groot bedrae aan die verbe-tering van toerusting bestee is. Tenspyte hiervan is daar in 1978 voor-spel dat die myn teen 1985 iets vandie verlede sou wees.Later is daar verwag dat 1994 die

laaste produksiejaar sou wees, in-dien verdere prospekteerwerk niegoeie resultate oplewer nie.Ten spyte vandiedoemproefete se

voorspellings het diemyn in 1983 ’nrekordhoeveelheid van 2 363 000ton erts geproduseer.In 1988het diemyn2830kg goud

geproduseer, veel laer as die piekproduksie van 1970, wat daaropdui dat dié goud van ’n laer graaderts verkry is.Blyvooruitzicht Gold Mining Bpk

was van 1997 ’n filiaal vanDRDGOLD Bpk en is in Februarie2012 aanVillageMainReef GoldMi-ning Company verkoop.Blyvoor het die vermoë om

400 000 ton erts per maand te ver-werk.

Mynbedrywighede by Wes-Driefonteinhet ‘n jaar na Blyvoor begin. Dit is in1938 beplan nadat ’n huurkontrakvanaf die regering verkry is.

Die Tweede Wêreldoorlog het ont-wikkeling gekortwiek en dus is diemaatskappy West Driefontein Gold Mi-ning Company Limited eers op 7 Maart1945 geregistreer. Aandele ter waardevan £3 750 000 is verkoop en die op-brengs is vir die oprigting van geboueen dienste aangewend.

In 1945 is begin met sink van skagte.In 1948, vóór daar met produksie be-gin is, was daar 100 blanke mynwer-kers en 595 swartes in diens.

Dié myn het in die eerste maande naproduksie in Februarie 1952 begin het,’n opspraakwekkende 4 693 kg gepro-duseer. Dié jaar is 115 000 ton goud-erts ontgin, terwyl daar in die volgendejaar reeds 45 000 ton erts per maandgemaal is. In dié jare was Wes-Driefon-tein aan die voorpunt van die goudmyn-bedryf in die land.

Onderaardse grotte was deurgaans’n probleem by die sink van skagte enwanneer sulke grotte raakgeboor is, isdit met ’n mengsel van 83% grond en17% sement gevul.

In die eerste jare is twee vertikaleskagte en een ovaalvormige vertikaleskag gesink, terwyl daar in 1950 ookbegin is met aanvoorwerk vir die Nr.4-skag.

In 1956 is die uraanaanleg in pro-duksie gestel. Daarna is verwag dat diebeplande Nr. 5-skag die rykste op-brengs aan goud in die groep sou lewer.

In 1957 was die wins van die myn £7miljoen en in 1959 is sewe keer meergoud as in 1952, die eerste jaar vanproduksie, ontgin. Ten spyte van dieoorweldigende sukses van die myn,was die groot hoeveelheid ondergrond-se water een van die aspekte wat pro-duksie gekortwiek het. Tussen 1954 en1962 is 2 581 218 miljoen liter uit diemyngebied gepomp. Dit was net ’n tyde-like verligting, want die uitgepomptewater het net weer teruggesyfer na die-selfde kompartemente. Die gevolg wasgrondversakking onder die maalafde-ling van die reduksieaanleg, wat pro-duksie benadeel het. In Desember1962 het ’n sinkgat onder die reduksie-aanleg die lewens van 29 werkers geëis.Drie naburige myne het vir die volgen-de maande gehelp met Wes-Driefonteinse ertsproduksie. ’n Jaar later is ’n gro-ter reduksieaanleg geopen en dieuraanaanleg is gesluit.

In 1964 is Wes-Driefontein beskouas die rykste goudmyn ter wêreld en hetdié jaar 62 968 kg goud geproduseer.

Op 26 Oktober 1968 was die mynweer wêreldnuus toe daar 875 m onderdie Nr. 4-skag 385 megaliter water indie myn ingestroom het.

Die myn is ontruim, terwyl twee wer-kers 1 524 m ondergronds ’n pomp inwerking gehou het, maar dit was tever-geefs.

Die water was blykbaar afkomstigvan die ondergrondse bron van dieBankoog. Binne twee dae het die water-vloei steeds toegeneem en dit het ge-dreig om die myn te oorstroom. Byko-mende pompe is teen die vyfde dag ge-installeer en sowat 2 835 miljoen literis binne 24 uur uit die myn gepomp.

Die bergingsgebied vir die water wasonvoldoende en omliggende goudmynehet gehelp deur tonnels te boor om diewater te help weglei.

Ingenieurs het bereken dat die waterbinne twee weke die 14e vlak van diemyn sou bereik, wat beteken het dat diemyn oorstroom was en onbruikbaarsou word. Dit het ’n nasionale krisis ge-word, want die regering sou ’n aansien-like deel van sy jaarlikse belasting ver-loor. As gevolg van dié krisis het diemyn ook R80 miljoen aan aandelers-geld verloor. Vroeg in November 1968is daar besluit om twee sementproppevan 20 000 kubieke meter op vlakke10 en 12 te installeer. Twee mini-prop-pe van 2,44 meter kitssement is geïn-stalleer. Daarna is twee permanenteproppe, wat 18,3 meter dik was, in diedroë area geïnstalleer. Elk van dieproppe is van vyf pype voorsien waar-deur die water afgelei kon word.

Teen 20 November het dit geblyk datdié sementproppe wel teen die water-druk bestand is en die myn kon met sywerksaamhede voortgaan.

Ten spyte hiervan het die myn net ’ngeringe daling in ertsproduksie beleefen het dié myn daardie jaar steeds 6%van alle goud in die wêreld en 8% vanal die goud in Suid-Afrika geproduseer.

Vir die regering het dit ’n inkomstevan R23 miljoen aan belasting beteken.

Daar is besluit om die water uit dieBank-kompartement te pomp, wat totversakkings gelei het. Dit het die eindevan die Bank-dorp beteken en teen1971 is alle ondernemings daar ge-sluit.

Die jaar 1971 was die kroonjaar vanWes-Driefontein, nadat hy sy grootsteproduksie van 88 883 kg goud gelewerhet. In teenstelling was Saterdag 29 Ja-nuarie 1972 ’n swart dag. ’n Elektriesefout het ’n brand in die hystoestel vandie Nr. 5A vertikale skag veroorsaak.Dit het die lewens van 500 werkers ingevaar gestel en die myn was 25% vansy produksie kwyt. Sowat 750 megali-ter water is in die myn laat stroom en

die brand is op 22 Februarie geblus.Sewentien mynwerkers het gesterf.

Met ’n produksie van 55 754 kg in1976 was Wes-Driefontein steeds diemyn met die hoogste goudproduksie indie land. Ten spyte van tekens dat diemyn besig was om uitgewerk te word,is die Nr 5-skag gesink. Ten einde diemyn se lewe te verleng is laegraadsegoudriwwe en uraan ontgin. Van dietagtigerjare af het Western Deep LevelsWes-Driefontein in produksie verbyge-steek. In Mei 1981 is Oos-Driefonteinmet Wes-Driefontein gekonsolideer en’n jaar later is Noord-Driefontein ookhierby gevoeg om Driefontein Consoli-dated tot stand te bring. Met die skepvan dié supermyn is die lewensverwag-ting van die drie myne met 40 tot 50jaar verleng. Teen 1988 was Wes-Drie-fontein die derde rykste goudmyn terwêreld, ná Kloofmyn en Oos-Driefon-tein. In 1999 het Gold Fields beheeroorgeneem van die gekombineerdeOos- en Wes-Driefontein- myne en ’nsamesmeltingsproses met die Venters-post-, Libanon-, Leeudoorn- en Kloof-myne het in 2000 ’n aanvang geneem.In 2010 is die huidige Kloof-Driefon-tein Complex (KDC) Oos en KDC Westot stand gebring. Op 29 November2012 het Gold Fields aangekondig datdit gaan ontbondel en ‘n nuwe myn-groep, Sibanye Gold, het in 2013 dieeienaar van die myne in die Carletonvil-le-ongewing geword.

When West Driefontein’s No 4 shaft wasflooded in October 1968, it placed the futu-re of the mine in jeopardy.

The biggest hurdle to overcome in thesuccessful mining of the West Witz Li-ne, was water.

Roy Macnab in Gold their Touch Sto-ne described it as a way in which natureprotected these riches. “Through thedolomite caverns filled with water theshafts would have to go to reach the reefand the gold.”

The answer was the cementationprocess. Albert Francois, a Belgian,

had shown that it was possible to injectcement – or grout – as it was called –into any crack or hole below the watertable and thus seal the flow of water.

After this process was used to shoreup the ancient masonry of St Paul’s Ca-thedral in London, Francois was invi-ted to South Africa in 1916 to help withwater problems at the ERPM mine ofCorner House.

In 1920 the Francois Cementation

Company was formed in London to ex-ploit the Francois patents. Under themanagement of Gold Fields a subsidia-ry of the Francois Cementation Compa-ny was formed in South Africa. Thiswas the forerunner of GF Cementationand other companies. Dr GA Voskulewas in charge of this operation and hewas brought in by Carleton Jones as aconsultant when the time came to sinkthe first shafts at Venterspost.

When the boreholes were sunk, wa-ter was found at three levels. It took amillion sacks of cement to win this bat-tle against the water. When the No 4Shaft of West-Driefontein was floodedin 1968, the installation of two cementstoppers of 20 000 cubic metre andanother two with a diameter of 2,44 meach below the water cavern, stoppedthe flow of the water. The stoppers heldout and the mine was saved.

Leslie Williams Memorial Private Hos-pital, located near Carletonville on theWest Rand, serves the local communityas well as the nearby Gold Fields mi-ning operations.

The first buildings of the hospital we-re erected in 1957, but were deemedunsafe during the 1960s at the time of

the sinkhole scare in the area.The hospital was then moved to the

current location. LeslieWilliamsprovi-des excellent medical facilities for doc-tors and specialists in order to proper-ly assess and treat patients. The hospi-tal is equipped with state-of-the-arttheatre and ward facilities.

Die derde oudste myn in die Carle-tonville-omgewing is Doornfontein.Die sink van die eerste skag van dieDoornfontein Goudmyn het op 21Maart 1947 luisterryk ‘n aanvang ge-neem, toe mev Annan, vrou van dievoorsitter van Consolidated GoldFields, Robert Annan, die eerste sooigespit het.

Die skag het as die Annan-skag be-kend gestaan.

Annan was ook vroeër as mynin-genieur betrokke in die gebied. In1948 voor daar nog met produksiebegin is, was daar reeds 65 blankeen 306 swart mynwerkers in diens.

In Januarie 1948 is met ‘n tweedeskag begin wat bekend gestaan hetas die Nommer 1-skag.

maal en in 1953/54 is 5 436 kg goudgeproduseer. Nuwe ontwikkelings hetgesorg dat produksie bykans verdub-bel het en teen 1963 is bykans 1,5 mil-joen ton erts gemaal wat amper 200000 kg goud geproduseer het.

Die sinkgate wat in die sestigerjare indie Carletonville-omgewing voorge-kom het, het Doornfontein nie beïn-vloed nie.

Toe Doornfontein in 1970 uit 1 402000 ton erts 22 973 kg goud ontgin het,was dit die hoogste in baie jare.

TheTauTonamine, nearCarletonvilleis currently, at about 3,9 kmdeep, thedeepest mining operation in theworld.Until 2008 this record was held by

the neighbouring Savuka mine at 3,7km. TauTona and Savuka are two ofthe three Western Deep Levels minesof the West Wits gold field and are ow-ned by AngloGold Ashanti.The name TauTona means ‘great li-

on’ in the Setswana language. Savukameans ‘wake up’ in isiZulu.Savuka was originally built as the

Western Deep Levels No 2 shaft in1958 and Tautona as Western DeepLevels No 3 shaft. The main shaft ofTautona was sunk in 1952. Excavati-on from this mine started in 1962.TauTona is so deep that temperatu-

res in themine can rise to life threate-ning levels. Air conditioning equip-

ment is used to cool the mine from55°C down to a more tolerable 28°C.The rock face temperature currentlyreaches 60°C.The journey to the rock face can ta-

ke 1 hour from surface level. The liftcage that transports theworkers fromthe surface to the bottom travels at 16metre per second (58 km/h).Tautona today has some 800 km of

tunnels, and about 5 600 miners

work in these tunnels to extract thismetal.Tautona and Savuka share proces-

sing facilities. Savuka was broughtunder the management of the otherAngloGoldmine in the area,Mponengin 2005. After lengthening the shaft ofTauTona to be the deepestmine in theworld, it was expected that it wouldbring the life expectancy of the mineto 2015.

TauTona is the deepestmine in theworld

AngloGold Ashanti’s Mponeng Mine islocated on theWest Wits Line near Car-letonville about 65 km south-west ofJohannesburg.Shaft-sinking at Mponeng began in

1981 with the twin shafts commissio-ned along with the gold plant complexin 1986.The name Mponeng means ‘look at

me’ in the local Sotho language.It is mined to an average depth of

2 800 m to 3 400 m below surface andis one of the world’s deepest and ri-chest goldmines with grades at over 8gper ton. Mponeng is one of three Anglo-Gold mines in the West Wits, the otherbeing Savuka and TauTona.Formerly known as the Western

Deep Levels South Shaft, or Shaft No1, Mponeng is the most recently sunkof the three AngloGold Ashanti mines.In 2007 the AngloGold Ashanti bo-

ard approved a project to develop theMponeng mine below the 120 level, ad-ding some 2,5 million ounces of goldand eight years to the mine’s life. Themine will eventually be deepened toover 4 000 metres.When mining at depths of more than

3,000 metres, where rock temperatu-res can reach55°C, cooling systemsarea crucial part of the operation.Mponeng is cooled by four large ice

refrigeration plants. Ice is pumpedthrough large pipes in order to helpcool the air for the underground wor-kers.Mponengproduces an estimated550

000 ounces of gold a year, and can pro-duce about 1 700 ounces of gold a day.Gold is then transported to the surface,and melted on site into a bar of about90 percent purity, destined for theRand refinery in Johannesburg.

Kusasalethu Gold Mine, formerlyknownasElandskraal, is one of themi-nes on the West Wits Line near Carle-tonville. It was formedafter the amalga-mation of Elandsrand and Deelkraalmines.The mine is owned by the Harmony

Gold Mining Co Ltd and was boughtfromAngloGoldAshanti in 2001 for R1billion in cash. Elandsrand came intoproduction in 1978 and had an antici-pated life to 2001.The subsequent commissioning of

the sub-vertical shaft in 1984 and theacquisition of Deelkraal from GoldFields in 1997,which allowed access tofurther reserves, extended this lifespan significantly. Kusasalethu minesmainly the Ventersdorp Contact Reef(VCR) and the Carbon Leader. Produc-tion in 2008 was 158 631ounces.A R989 million project to develop a

deeper ‘new mine’ to exploit the VCRbetween 3 000 and 3 600metres belowsurface was completed in 2010 andwas expected to boost annual producti-on to 416 000 ounces.Kusasalethu comprises of twin verti-

cal and twin sub-vertical shaft systems.Mining uses conventional methods ina sequential grid layout. Ore mined istreated at the Kusasalethu plant.On 3 October 2007 3 200 employees

were trapped underground when a 15

mcompressed air pipe broke away justbelow surface in the men and materialshaft and fell to the shaft bottom, seve-rely damaging both the shaft steelworkand the electricity supply to the submen and material shaft.The trapped workers were all

brought to surface by 16:00 the follo-wing day after cages were installed inthe rock shaft. Forty-eight days of pro-duction were lost.The mine, which was closed on 20

December 2013 due to labour unrest,reopened in a phased process from 15

February 2013, after an agreement wasreached with various trade unions.It is expected that themine will reach

full production by the end of June2013.Source: anglogold.com; wikipe-

Van die begin van mynbou-aktiwiteitein die Carletonville-areawas daarmen-se wat hul bekommernis uitgespreekhet oor die invloed wat die myne op dieomgewing kan hê.Die myne se aksies het daartoe gelei

dat die Oog van die Wonderfontein netbuite Carletonville reeds in 1959 opge-droog het. Die gehalte van water in dieWonderfonteinspruit, wat deur dieCarletonville-area vloei en later in dieMooirivier, wat Potchefstroom van wa-ter voorsien, het so agteruitgegaan datdit nie meer vir menslike gebruik ge-skik was nie.In die 1960’s was die grootste pro-

bleem sinkgate wat onstaan het na diemyne ondergrondse water in die dolo-mitiese gebiede begin uitpomp het. Indieselfde dekade het boere al begin kladat die water wat hulle van die mynevir landbou-doeleindes ontvang, be-soedel is.Dié probleme het egter in die 1990’s

weer kop begin uitsteek toe die toe-stand van water wat aan die boere ver-skaf is drasties agteruit begin gaan het.Die Oberholzer Besproeiingsraad hetvir etlike jare met myngroepe in diearea, veral Goldfields, gespook om be-ter gehalte water te kry.Die uiteinde was dat die myne deur

middel van die Wesrandse DolomitieseWaterassosiasie, wat uit verteenwoor-digers van beide die myne sowel as dieregering bestaan het, die meerderheidvan boere in die omgewing se gronduit-gekoop het.Dit was egter eers in 2007 wat die re-

gering na toenemende druk van omge-wingsaktiviste ‘n plan ter tafel gelê hetom die Wonderfonteinspruit skoon temaak.Hoewel verskeie publieke vergade-

rings in die area gehou is, is die planegter nooit in gebruik geneem nie. Ver-skeie wetenskaplikes, insluitende ken-ners van die VSA enKanada, het aange-

dui dat die skoonmaakplan soveel fou-te gehadhet dat dit bykans van geennutwas nie.Intussen het boere wat in die omge-

wing van die Leeuspruit, wat deur dieFochville-area vloei, ook aangedui datdié spruit se water erg deur die SouthDeep-myn en ‘n Harmony-skag besoe-del is.Hoewel beide die Departement van

Waterwese en die Nasionale Kernregu-leerder aanvanklik by skoonmaak-planne betrokke was, was daar teenmiddel 2013 steeds geen verdere ont-wikkeling in die proses om die besoe-deling op te ruim nie.

in the North West Province followed theabolition of cross-border municipali-ties.The residents of Khutsong objected to

the transfer fromwealthyGauteng to thepoorer North West.Theupset residents took to the streets

in various protests, which led to a varie-ty of violent incidents including the des-truction of government and some priva-te property, petrol bombing the homes

of African National Congress politiciansand some officials and blocking roads.The protests also led to the fact that

only 123 votes were cast in the local go-vernment elections held on 1 March2006. Residents also sent an applicati-on to thePretoriaHighCourt tooverturnthe decision tomove themunicipality toNorth West.As a result of the actions, it was an-

Koerantpersoneel moes op 21 No-vember vinnig spring toe dood enverwoesting gesaai is toe ‘n vragmo-tor deur drie winkels in Annanwegin Carletonville gebars het.

Die vragmotor het met ‘n kleinervragmotor gebots, motors in diestraat en daarna ‘n boom getref enin drie winkels, Print.com, KidsTreat en ‘n oogkundige se spreek-

kamer, tot stilstand gekom. Die sen-trum se dak het inmekaargetuimel.

Sowat 500 inwoners het verslae voordie verwoeste gebou saamgedrom ter-wyl die chaos voor hulle afgespeel het.Nooddienspersoneel het drie beseer-des uit voertuie gesny en sowat 15 tot20 mense wat lig beseer is, is na diehospitaal geneem. Volgens die nood-dienste was daar meer beseerdes,

maar hulle is deur ander hospitaal toevervoer. Die eienaars van Print.com,mnr. Gert Knoetze en sy vrou, Ansie,sowel as Ntombana Twala, ‘n leerlingvan Carleton Jones High School, wattoevallig by die gebou op ‘n taxi gewaghet om haar na ‘n eksamen huis toe teneem, is in die ongeluk oorlede.

“Sê asseblief vir die mense ek is jam-mer. Dit was nie aspris nie,” het die be-

stuurder van die vragmotor, mnr.Abel Botshehane, vanuit sy hospi-taalbed aan die koerant vertel. Hy islater deur die hof onskuldig bevindop die aanklagte wat met die onge-luk verband gehou het. Dit was vol-gens inwoners die ergste ongelukwat die dorp nóg gesien het. Die on-geluk het ook groot dekking in dienasionale media geniet.

The process ofmining gold is a labori-ous and costly process.After blasting underground, the

blasted rock is then scraped awayfrom the stope into a hole.A stope is any excavation made in

amine, especially from a steeply incli-ned vein, to remove the ore that hasbeen rendered accessible by theshafts and drifts.The hole in which the blasted rock

is dropped, is equipped with a chuteand door to control the flow of rock.This is knownas aboxhole. From the-se box holes, the rock is drawn off on-to underground railroad carts calledhoppers andhauledby locomotives tothe shaft area. The rock is droppeddown large openings known as ore-passes, and falls to the lowest level ofthemine. Here the rock is transferredinto skips and raised to the surface.

After being brought to the surface,the gold-bearing rock is transportedby rail or conveyor belt to the plant forprocessing. At the plant, the ore iscrushed and thenmilled to a fine pow-der. Gold is then extracted from thispowder, called waste, using chemi-cals. The gold solution, after beingtreated with chemicals, is in a purerform and is poured into a mould cal-led a cathode. The cathode sludge is

dried and melted in an electric furna-ce to produce gold bars of roughly90% purity. After cleaning and weig-hing, the gold bars are transported tothe Rand Refinery in Germiston, nearJohannesburg, where it is further re-fined to at least 99% purity.These are then sold into the global

gold markets where they are used forjewellery, electrical components andas a form of currency.

Mining gold is a long and expensive process

Carletonville Herald has through the ye-ars reported on various problems relatedto service delivery by the government.In one of themost extreme cases of ser-

vice delivery problems, various patientsstarted dying under mysterious circum-stances at Carletonville Hospital in 2008.The hospital was shrouded in contro-

versy since its opening in 1969 when thethen parliamentarian, Sybrandt van Nie-kerk, after whom the hospital was origi-nally named, mentioned that no specia-list serviceswould be available at the faci-lity. Although the hospital was laterknown as one of the best in the area, thequality of services being delivered took adip towards 2008.In the first of the specific incidents re-

ported on by the newspaper, Mr ThabangMosia jumped to his death from the win-dow of ward six on 20 July of this year,the day that hewas admitted to the hospi-tal. On admission he wasmentally soundand did not show any signs of disorienta-tion. He jumped out of the window onlytwoandahalf hours after being admitted.According to an investigation report it

was indicated that the patient apparentlybroke the window pane and tore a sheetwith the intention of using it as a rope.Unfortunately the sheet was not strongenough to carry his weight and tore, lea-ding to the subsequent fall of the patientfrom the third floor. He was discoveredby nursing staff lying on the ground anddied despite receiving medical treatmentfor themultiple fractures and internal in-juries he sustained during the fall.The hospital however claimed that all

windows in the wards that have handlesto open have burglar proofing installed.At least two other patients fell to their de-aths in similar circumstances and manypeople complained that their loved oneshad received bad treatment. The pro-blems led to various investigations andchanges at the facility and conditionsstarted to improve within the followingthree years, leaving the problems of 2008to be a baddream thatmany hopedwouldnever be repeated.


Deaths from vehicle accidents oftenmade the news during the newspaper’shistory.Although the newspaper sometimes

experienced criticism from some rea-ders because it often gave prominenceto fatal vehicle accidents, these horrorsremained an unfortunate reality thatcould not be ignored.During recent years, the N12 main

road situated between Carletonvilleand Fochville, leading from Potchef-stroom to Johannesburg, continuallyclaimed many lives, leading it to be na-med by some as the “road of death”.Traffic problems in the area have not

been helped by the fact that the N14main route from Krugersdorp to Ven-tersdorp has been closed since April2008 because of a large sinkhole. ByJuly 2013 this road had not yet beenre-opened to the public.For some time the alternative road to

this route was also closed because ofa sinkhole.This led to a much higher number of

vehicles, especially large trucks, mo-ving through the Carletonville andWel-verdiend area.In the meantime, vehicle accidents

on a variety of other roads also continu-allymade thenewsduring recent years.

In October 2008 six matrics, most ofthem pupils of Carleton Jones HighSchool, aswell as thedriver of themini-bus in which they were travelling diedwhen it overturned after a matric fare-well after-party in the Potchefstroomarea.Another large accident occurred on

the N14 in January 2009 when a Putcobus overturned, killing seven and inju-ring 68 people.In May 2011 eight employees of

DRDGold, themining company owningBlyvooruitzicht, was killed in a bus ac-cident near Blyvoor.A total of 37 employees were injured

during the same accident, making thisone of the largest vehicle accidents inthe area in recent years.In May 2013 four employees on the

Carletonville business Lorsons werekilled while on their way to work on theroad between Westonaria and Carle-tonville.Various other people from the area

were killed in accidents about whichthe Herald tried to give the most accu-rate information possible. At the sametime the newspaper tries to do its re-porting in a sensitive way, which oftenentailed speaking to the relatives of thedeceased.

In 2012 Coolboy Ngamole became thefirst athlete from the Merafong munici-pal area to qualify for a final at theOlympic Games.The Merafong City Local Municipali-

ty comprises of Fochville, Carletonville,Khutsong, Kokosi, Greenspark, Wel-verdiend and Blybank as well as a va-riety ofmining towns and villages situa-ted in the same area.Although some disabled athletes

qualified for Paralympics games befo-re,Ngamolemadehistorywhenhequa-lified for themarathon event of theLon-don Olympics in 2012. Ngamole wastaken up into the South African Olym-pic team after obtaining his secondOlympic qualifying time when he wonthe SA Marathon Championships inGeorge about a month before the Lon-don Olympic Games kicked off.He had also won the South African

marathon title in 2010 and again wonthe title the next year after he crossedthe finishing line nearly two minutesclear of his closest opponent.Ngamole was an unlikely Olympian

as he worked as a normal mine worker

without any special privileges at the ti-me that he qualified for the Olympics.Although he attended daily elite trai-ning, much of his exercise comprisedof running on dirt and other small ro-ads in the Carletonville area.On his Olympic racing day Ngamole

receivedmuch press attention as he al-most led the field for a part of the racebefore collapsing near the end. He en-ded up finishing in a time of 2:10:43.Upon his return to Carletonville,

Ngamole explained the atmosphere ofhaving a strong 80 000 crowd roaringon their favourite athletes at the Olym-pic stadium.“It felt like you are on another planet

because the whole crowd is united andcheering in their different colours,” hetold the Herald.Ngamole also indicated after the

Olympics that the Merafong municipalarea lacked proper grounds and re-sources at which an athlete could deve-lop their full potential. He hoped to lob-by for better facilities and was alsomo-tivated to train other athletes from thearea to become starmarathon athletes.

Merafong’s unlikely first Olympic finalist


Residents of Carletonville almost win-ning the internationalCape toRio yachtrace - this almost sounds as probableas the Tooth Fairy arriving to solve allwoes of mankind.This was however exactly what hap-

pened in 2011 when the Robinson fa-mily made it into history books.The Robinsons, consisting of busi-

nessman father, Michael, primaryschool teacher mom Gillian and child-ren Michaela Mae, Bradley, Katherineen Brennan became the unlikely seafa-ring stars.

Their story started in the Septemberof the previous year when a friend,Mark Hammick, volunteered to lendthem his boat, the Ciao Bella, in ex-change for a case of Brazilian beer.Although the family all had extensive

prior sailing experience, it was the firsttime that they took part in this prestigi-ous international event.The family,whose trainingwaters are

the Boskop Dam between Carletonvilleand Potchefstroom, had both good andbad luck during the event.Mother Gill later told of how the

children had played amajor role in twoof the outstanding events during thecourse of the voyage. On the night of thethird day of the race, excellent steeringby the boys ensured the family the fas-test time for the day. During most ofthis achievement their father wasasleep in the cabin.In the second outstanding event, the

family almost got stuck without an en-gine and communication because die-sel mixed with water was sold to themin Cape Town, despite the fact that theseller knew they needed the fuel for therace. The biggest danger however, layin the fact that the problem also affec-ted their desalination equipmentwhich would have led to the crewmem-

bers limiting their water intake fromtheir usual three litres a day to one litreper day each. On the first day of ratio-ning, no-one would have been able todrink water.Although the children originally ac-

cepted this fate without even one com-plaint, they later made the ingeniousplan to use a sail to catch rain water.The family became well known all

over the country asMichael reported li-ve on their progress daily during amor-ning radio show on the national Afri-kaans radio station Radio SonderGrense (RSG).The family arrived in Rio de Janeiro

in the second place on handicap in therace, 20 days after leaving Cape Town.

Throughout recent years various sportstars have made names for themselvesnationally.The Carletonville area had for deca-

des been known for its sports achie-vers. During the 1980’s, for instance,wrestler JanWilkens was a national te-levision icon as he fought against vari-ous international opponents.By 1993, Carletonville alone had 45

athletes who had optained national co-lours in a variety of sports. These ran-ged from boxing and various martialarts such as Tsukuri Judo and TaeKwon-Do-karate to sports such as an-gling and golf. Various track athletes

and participants in team sports alsoexcelled.During the past few years achievers

in various sports came from throug-hout theMerafong Citymunicipal area.In March 2009, Simon Magakwe of

Carletonville became an overnight sen-sation after winning the 100 m sprintat the South African Athletics Champi-onship in Stellenbosch.In the meantime Magakwe’s coach,

Annetjie Smit, was also the mother ofAnika Smit, who had excelled as a highjumper only years before. During thewomen’s high jump final at the 2006Melbourne Commonwealth Games

Anika took the gold medal after clea-ring the bar at 1.91m.In 2011 then 13-year-old Shawnelle

de Lange from Fochville made nationalhistory when she became the youngestever winner of the Sanlam Cancer GolfChallenge.She took part in the A-section of the

event. Shawnelle origionally decided totake part in the event after losing heryounger sister, Monique, to cancer theprevious year.Another youngster, Ockie Brits, also

walked off with various junior interna-tional golf titles .In the meantime a skydiver belon-

ging to the Johannesburg SkydivingClub situated in Carletonville, PottiePotgieter,waspart of various formationfree-falling world records, most ofwhich were achieved in the United Sta-tes.From 2008, the area also boasted

with top triathlon athletes Sean Cuy-pers and Graham Brooks and variousweight-lifters from the Fochville areawho brought home a variety of titles.Some of the area’s disabled athletes

also showed their strength. One of the-se was the sight-disabled Allen Dinglewho broke the national weight-liftingrecord.

Hierdie collage van mashoofde vandie Carletonville Herald het in die 21jaar bylaag van 27 Julie 1984verskyn. Heelonder is die mashoofwat op 5 Oktober 1973 in gebruik geneem is die nuwe WesTransvaal enO.V.S. Herald die eerste keer gepubliseer is. In die jare voor die Carletonville Herald in besit van mnrSchalk Hoogenboezem gekom het,het dit ook bekend gestaan as die Herald vir die Goue Weste en is dit ookop omliggende dorpe verskyn. Dietwee middelste mashoofde is toe gebruik. Om tred te hou met dieDie nuwe mashoof van 19 Junie 1979(heel bo) is groter as die vorige eensodat daar net aan die regterkantdaarvan ruimte vir ’n advertensie is,terwyl daar langs die vorige mashoof weerskante advertensiespasiewas.Benewens die lettertipe word diestigtingsjaar van die Herald in ’nraam onder ’n trompet vertoon. Diemashoof weerspieël ’n meer lewendige, karaktervolle beeld as die vorige bokas sans seriflettertipe.

Met die veranderings aan modes envoorkeure het die Carletonville Heraldse mashoofde tred gehou met dié ver-

anderings en dit weerspieël deur symashoofde. Die een aspek van ’n koe-rant wat hom onderskei van alle anderkoerante en sy eie karakter definieer,

is die naam van die koerant en die let-tertipe en ontwerp waarin dit gedrukword. In die omgangstaal staan dit be-kend as die mashoof van die koerant.

Mashoofdegeekarakter

’n Herontwerpte nuwe Herald verskyn die eerste keer op7 Februarie 1992. Die berig om die nuwe voorkoms aante kondig in die voorafgaande koerant lui só: “’n Herontwerpte “nuwe” Herald verskyn vanaf Vrydag wanneerdie laaste stappe geneem word om aan lesers ‘n nogmakliker leesbare en visueelaantrekliker en beter geordende Herald te bied. Die kleed waarin die Herald vanafVrydag verskyn, is spesifiek ontwerp om aan die eise vandie hedendaagse koerantleser te voldoen.”

Die mashoof wat vanaf 12 September 1997 gebruik is,het dieselfde lettertipe as die vorige een, maar die groenmashoof kry ’n rooi skadukleur by. Dié mashoof wordvandag nog gebruik. Terselfdertyd het die PotchefstroomHerald se mashoof ’n groen skadukleur gekry om die verbintenis tussen dié twee koerante uit te beeld.

Dié mashoof het net vir 'n paar maande in1965 verskyn.

Nog 'n interessante ou mashoof, hierdiekeer op die voorblad van die uitgawe van17 Januarie 1964.


groen mashoof, die kleur wat vandagnog gebruik word, uigekom het, was indie koerant van 7 Maart 1969.Behalwe vir die mashoofde wat ver-

kleurmannetjie gespeel het, het dieenigste kleur wat elders in die spesifie-ke koerante gebruik is ook dieselfdeongewone kleure gehad.Dit is baie ongewoon aangesien die

meeste koerante deur hul hele bestaannet een kleur mashoof het.Wat die rede vir die gekleurde mas-

hoofde was, is nie seker nie.Die koerantemet die gekleurdemas-

hoofde is nie in die Carletonville He-rald se besit nie, maar is by die Nasio-nale Biblioteek in Pretoria opgespoor.

In die jare tussen 1968 en 1971 het diekleure van die Carletonville Herald semashoof, en wat elders in die koerantgebruik is, vir ‘n ruk lank drasties be-gin verander.Hoewel die mashoof vir die eerste

paar jaar van die Herald se bestaanrooi was, het die eerste ander kleurmashoof, in geel, op die voorblad vandie koerant van20Desember1968 ver-skyn. Die enigste ander keer dat diékleur vir die mashoof gebruik is, wasin die koerant van 21 Maart 1969.In diemaandewat daarop gevolg het,

het die mashoof ook in blou en oranjeverskyn.Die eerste keer dat die Herald met ‘n

‘n Bekende slaghuis van Carleton-ville vier ook vanjaar sy 50ste be-staansjaar.

Flip Labuschagne was vanaf1973 in die vleisbedryf en in 1976het hy die Oos-Drie slaghuis begin.

Mossie Lewitton het op sy beurtdie familiebesigheid, CarletonvilleVars Vleis, wat deur Morris Lewit-ton in 1963 begin is, oorgeneem enwas aan die stuur van sake sedert1987 tot 2005.

Flip en Mossie het in 2005 ‘n ven-nootskap gesluit. Hulle het beideslaghuise se name behou en staanbekend as Oos Drie Slaghuis Bkhandeldrywend as CarletonvilleVars Vleis. Hulle is die mede-eie-naars en fokus nie net op vleishan-del nie, maar ook op spyseniering.

Deur die jare het die Herald ook oor tal-le ongewone gebeurtenisse berig.

Hoewel daar nog baie is, is hier ‘npaar van die berigte wat lesers laatglimlag het.

In sy uitgawe van 13 Februarie 2009dra die koerant ‘n berig oor me. CecileSteyn van Welverdiend wat op ‘n persinsleepvoertuig vir haar bruidswa be-sluit het. Haar gevolg het uit drie ander

insleepvoertuie bestaan. Volgens Steynwas sy nie seker hoe sy by die kerk soukom nie, maar terwyl sy besig was omvir haar troue reg te maak, het haaroom, Flip Berry, met die insleepwaensvoor hul huis gestop.

In ‘n ander uitgawe, dié van 9 Februa-rie 2007, word die verhaal vertel vanmnr. Barend Strydom van Carletonvil-le se Blou Bul-bakkie. Dié bakkie het

kompleet met horings, kopstuk, agter-stewe en stert in die lug gespog en isspesiaal uit veselglas en polistereen ge-maak. Strydom het vertel dat baie men-se toet wanneer hulle hom in die padsien. Ander het gelag en gespot, maaralmal was eens dat die bakkie iets be-sonders was. Strydom het op die bak-kie besluit na hy hom vir rugby-politiekvervies het.

Intussen het besoekers ook gewysdat hulle pret in ons area kan hê. Diekoerant van 20 November 2009 het oordie oudste Suid-Afrikaner ooit berigwat valskerm gespring het. Die negen-tigjarige Mable Schröder van Brakpanhet die vorige Sondag ‘n tandemsprongby die Johannesburg Skydiving Clubnet buite Carletonville voltooi.

Minder ernstige nuusberigte

Marina Heyns

Aan die begin van my tyd by die He-rald was ons kantore in Oberholzermaar mettertyd het ons na Emerald-straat in Carletonville geskuif. Ditwas die era van tikmasjiene, ‘n baiebesige donkerkamer, Dinsdagaand-spertyd en verspreiding van koeranteVrydagoggend. In die beginjare hetSchalk Hoogenboezem, toe eienaarvan die Herald-groep, en Gerrie Wes-sels, die een wat gesorg het dat finan-sies regloop, Dinsdae van Potchef-stroom gekom, omgesien na die uit-leg van die koerant en finansies endan al die harde kopie, redaksie so-wel as advertensies, by die drukkersin Potchefstroom besorg.Die Carletonville-personeel was nouuitgelewer aan die Potchefstroom-personeel om sin te maak van die ko-pie wat hulle ontvang het. Daar washier en daar misverstande en daaromis ‘n reëling ingestel dat iemand van

redaksie en een van advertensiesWoensdag na werk na die Potchef-stroom-kantoor ry om na ons belan-ge om te sien terwyl die opmaak vanbladsye aan die gang is. Hierdie week-likse besoek aan die Potchefstroom-kantoor was nie altyd gewild by diepersoneel nie, maar dit het betekendat daar minder tandeknersery wasop ‘n Vrydag wanneer koerante aan-gekom het vir verspreiding. Die goeiehiervan was dat ons die Potchef-stroom-mense leer ken en waardeerhet.

Gedurende hierdie tyd het Seiponevir die Khutsong- gemeenskap totstand gekom en terwyl die Heraldtweetalig was, was Seipone net En-gels. Twee van die Herald-verslagge-wers het in albei tale geskryf, partynet Afrikaans en een net Engels maartussen ons is die kopie van die Seipo-ne-verslaggewers persklaar gemaakaangesien daar nie ‘n Engelse sub indie Potch-kantoor was nie.

In 1980 het die Herald deel gewordvan Nasionale Pers. Dit was tot voor-deel van die personeel en koerantmaar het min verandering gebring indie dag tot dag aktiwiteite in ons kan-toor. Hoekom sukkel met ‘n resep watwerk?

Vir my was die jare by ‘n streekkoe-rant van onskatbare waarde. Ek hetgeweet hoe die verskillende afdelingswerk en wat die stappe is van kopieskep tot uitleg tot publikasie, dat ‘ngoeie verhouding met die drukkeryuiters belangrik is en dat dit maklikis om koerante in jou motor te laai ente help met verspreiding as daar ‘nkrisis is. Dit alles het my goed testaan gekom toe ek later by ‘n Son-dagkoerant werk waar die verskillen-de afdelings nie altyd noodwendigsimpatie het met mekaar se proble-me nie.

Ek wens die Carletonville Heraldalle voorspoed en sterkte toe in hier-die tyd van sosiale media.

Die ou Heraldkantoor digby die magi-straatskantoor in Orangestraat, Ober-holzer. Ek het ‘n kantoor gedeel metEugene van Wyk en ons was die gedugteredaksiespan in 1981.

Hy het die gewigtige munisipale- enpolisiesake hanteer en ek het skole-nuus, duiwevliegwedstryduitslae, endie maandelikse VLU- beriggie geskryf.

Die skoolfoto’s was nogal vreesaan-jaend. Die leuse was ‘ouers wil die ge-siggies sien want dit verkoop adverten-sies’. In die oerdae moes ons foto’s indie donkerkamer ontwikkel word, engevolglik moes ek ‘n paar keer terug-sluip na ‘n skool toe om maar weer diegesiggies te kiek wat heeltemaal onher-kenbaar op die oorspronklike foto was.

Menigmaal het ontstoke moeders myvoor stok gekry omdat ek die telgie senaam verkeerd gespel het .. die meer

algemene ‘Juanita’ instede van die mei-sietjie se doopnaam ‘Wanita’, byvoor-beeld.

Later van tyd het my ‘beat’ ook diemyne ingesluit. Moeisaam geswoeg engesweet aan 24-blad mynbylaes op ‘ntikmasjien, en lekker saamgekuier ty-dens die jaarlikse “Gold Watch Presen-tations’.

Ek het selfs my hand aan rubriek-skryf geslaan. “Laslappies” was kleinbrokkies nuus ... hieroor en daaroor ..wat ‘n ruk lank die dorp aan die gonsgehad het.

Op ‘n dag het ons besluit om die koe-rant op te kikker .. en so het ons bladsy3-meisie van die week haar verskyninggemaak. Die eerste aspirant het ek enEugene op ‘n middag in die swembadby ons huis afgeneem. Ons het goed ge-kies - die einste skoolmeisie het laterontpop in ‘n skoonheidskoningin enmodeontwerper.

Daar was volop pret en grappies on-der ons span - onthou nog goed hoe onsons vergaap het aan Prinses Diana seskoonheid en die ‘pomp and ceremony’van haar huweliksdag. Maxine Georgehet met vergunning die dag ‘n TV-stelkantoor toe gebring.

‘n Minder aangename werkopdragwas om onderhoude te voer met be-droefde agtergeblewenes. Later jaresou ek self besef hoeveel dit vir familie-lede kan beteken as so’n berig met em-patie benader en geskryf word.

Die atmosfeer het verander nadatons Emeraldstraat toe getrek het. Diepersoneel het verdubbel en alles wasbaie meer saaklik, maar dit was nogsteeds vir my ‘n fees.

Ek het my altyd verwonder dat ie-mand my geld in die hand sal stop omiets te doen wat vir my net altyd ‘n bronvan vreugde en ‘n groot fees was.

Ek onthou...
