Mr. Kapuuo's views are well known to the Secretary-General (they met during the Secretary-General's visit to Namibia). However, I would like to draw his attention to two points made this morning by Chief Kapuuo in his statement before the Fourth Committee. (a) He said: "¥e ask the United Nations to recognise the National Convention as the only organization which represents the people of Namibia. Such a step would not only strengthen our Unity in Namibia but would also hasten the liberation of Namibia." It should be recalled in this connexion that at present the United Nations recognizes only SWAPO because of the decision to grant recognition only to the liberation movements that have already been recognized by the Organization of African Unity. (b) Chief Kapuuo also said: "The National Convention appointed a Constitutional Committee to draft a constitution for the future Government of Namibia. To carry out this task the Convention requires the assistance of experts. We therefore ask the United Nations to send a team of experts to Namibia to help the people of Namibia in the work of the constitution." I suppose that it would be difficult for the Secretary-General to deal with matters related to this point unless the Security Council allows him to continue his contacts with the South African Government. Chief Kapuuo reiterated his opposition to the South African policies of apartheid and the Advisory Council which was established shortly after Ambassador Escher's mission. But he did not pronounce himself on the question of the continuation of the Secretary-General's contacts with the South African Government. Many African representatives in the Fourth Committee had expected him to speak on the matter in view of the statement - 2 - which he issued jointly with Mr. D. Mudge,"Chief Executive of the Administration of South West Africa", following their unexpected meeting in Windhoek on 26 September 1973. In the statement Mr. Mudge and Chief Kapuuo said: "Both of them expressed themselves as being in favour of contact and dialogue at a responsible level as a means of solving the problems of South West Africa and rejected force as a means." After being criticized by many members of the National Convention, particularly by members of the SWAPO, Mr. Kapuuo said in a statement issued on behalf of the National Unity Democratic Organization (NUDO), the political party of which he is chairman: "I abide by my own policy. If there is a political organization who does not want to talk to people or want to live in isolation, then it is their business, but it has no right to change our policy". The Secretary-General may wish to take this new position into account in discussing the situation in Namibia with Chief Kapuuo. M. K.

  • Catastrophic Spinal Cord Injuries in Argentine Rugby. Impact of the Measures Implemented and Their Relative Reduction in Time
    CLINICAL RESEARCH Catastrophic Spinal Cord Injuries in Argentine Rugby. Impact of the Measures Implemented and Their Relative Reduction in Time Federico Carpani,* Fernando Salvat,* Marcelo Saco,** Nicole Farcy,# Carolina Zamorano,# Verónica Bruno,## Mauricio F. Farez,* Martín Nogués* *Department of Neurology, FLENI, Institute of Neurological Research “Raúl Carrea”, Belgrano Headquarters, Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, Argentina **Medical Department, Argentina Rugby Union (UAR), Buenos Aires, Argentina #CEBES, Center for Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Public Health, Buenos Aires, Argentina ##Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Calgary, (Calgary, Canada) ABSTRACT Introduction: A catastrophic injury is defined as any serious trauma that involves the head, brain, spine, or spinal cord. They are life-threatening or may leave a permanent or semi-permanent disability. In Argentina, there is a high incidence of injuries. Materials and Methods: Data obtained from a telephone survey carried out in the collaborative framework between the Union Argentina de Rugby and the Fundación para la Lucha de Enfermedades Neurológicas de la Infancia (Fleni, by its acronym) were analyzed. We carried out a qualitative analysis of the data and their relationship to progressive changes in sports regulations. Results: It was observed that the number of injuries remained stable year after year. When associating this fact with a sustained increase in the number of players per year, we can see a relative decrease in the risk of injury. Conclusion: Catastrophic injuries have a great impact on the quality of life of the player and his environment. They must be considered inadmissible and the efforts must be increased to achieve zero risk. In recent years, multiple preventive measures have been implemented and regulations have been modified in order to avoid catastrophic injuries.
