They were charged on October 28 with membership in the African National Congress, banned in 1960, and 21 specific charges, and held without bail. One of the accused is Mrs. Winnie Mandela, wife of Mr. Nelson Mandela (leader of A.N.C. now serving life imprisonment), who has herself been constantly harassed for opposition to apartheid. Among other accused are several trade union leaders, students and journalists. They have been in detention under the Terrorism Act since May-June 1969 and held incommunicado with no access to families or lawyers until charged. The Prosecutor stated that of more than 80 state witnesses, a substantial number had also been detained under the Terrorism Act. Several of the witnesses who have so far appeared alleged brutal ill-treatment in priLson to force them to make statements. Two of the witnesses were sentenced to two months' imprisonment for refusing to give evidence for the state and have been warned of a further sentence. The prosecution has alleged that the African National Congress is a section of the communist movement, an allegation which had been discarded by the court in the marathon trial of A.N.C. learers from 1956 to 1961. While the indictment contains serious charges under South African repressive legislation, the evidence presented so far deals mairly with such matters as the formation of a group to publicize African grievances, distribution of leaflets, possession of literature, and correspondence with London, especially the receipt of funds for relief of political sufferers. The prosecution also seems to be attempting to secure convictions for relief and humanitarian assistance to families of those imprisoned for opposition to apartheid - an activity which has been strongly supported by the Member States of the United Nations. Press reports also indicate that the defence has had to be condu 'ted under serious difficulties, as adequate facilities were not provided for the accused to meet together with Counsel and as numerous documents were presented only a few days before the trial. Cn December 8, the court rejkected the application of defence that the accused be supplied with statements they had made while in detention. -2- The trial was adjourned oi December 15, 1969, and will resume on February 16, 1970, after the Christmas recess.

Forty vets, fifty nurses and tens of support staff keep him on his toes. Two of his vets are also Clare alumni, Mark Goodfellow (1994) and Mark Lowrie (1998). “It’s not at all like ‘James Herriott’, is the first thing to say. This is a modern hospital concentrating on advanced surgery on cats and dogs, which makes it different to most other practices. Surgery of this kind, historically, was done at universities but there is now a large private sector market.” Clive joined the Davies practice in 1998 and became managing director two years ago. “I didn’t have any clear ambitions when I was at Clare other than to be a vet. Although I got a Mark Goodfellow, Clive Elwood, Mark Lowrie First in my first year, I went downhill from there academically and coasted until I caught the over Clare bridge, said that he should apply for Clare Pageant ‘bug’ by visiting the University of Pennsylvania Clare.

Soweto, The s“ torybook Place”: Tourism And Feeling In A South African Township Abstract This dissertation deals with the role of tour guides in creating and telling the story of Soweto – a township southwest of Johannesburg, South Africa. The ts ory speaks of a place afflicted by poverty because of its history of segregation during apartheid but emerging out of these struggles to lead its nation in a post-apartheid culture. I argue that Soweto’s story was created out of a governmental mandate for the township to become one of Gauteng’s tourism locations, and out of a knowledge that the transformation story from apartheid to a ‘rainbow nation’ would not sell in this context. After being created, Soweto’s story was affirmed through urban branding strategies and distributed to tourism markets across the world. It is a storybook – a narrative with a beginning, a climax, and an ending; it is easily packaged, marketed and sold to individuals from across the world, and this is done through the senses and emotions.
