man ust nabbed on stQlen vehicle charge in· Windhoek after fleeing SA EX-CCB agent Dave Ver
ster who fled to Namibia over the weekend.
GWEN LlSTER
FORMER Johannesburg city councillor and CCB agent on-the-run, Dave Verster, alias Hendrik Johann Steyn, alias 'Medici', was picked up by police in Windhoek yesterday, and is due to appear on a charge of car theft in the Magistrates Court today.
Police also confinned that Verster was hoping to apply for Wlitica1 asylum in Namibia
Verster, who hot-footed it from South Africa over the weekend, had already met with Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Wildlife, Conservation and Tourism Hanno Rumpf, with a view to possible employment in the Ministry.
Tipped off by a South African newspaper that Verster was in town, The Namibian monitored his movements after he arrived in Windhoek. It was later confirmed by Hanno Rumpf that the ranger for Damaraland, Rudi Loutit, had brought Verster round to Rurnpfs home on Monday evening. He said he was looking for a job, possibly as a pilot for Nature Calservatioo. Rumpf
STRIKING Katutura taxi drivers blocking traffic from entering Biilow Street, which they are demanding that the Municipality allow them to use.
Verster came to Namibia in a stolen vehicle, shortly after having made revelations about his life as a secret agent to The Sunday Times newspaper in South Africa. The newspaper gave prominence to his story on Sunday, writing that the former Johannesburg Democratic Party city councillor had lived hi s life as a double agent. Verster revealed that he was also a member of the SADF's Military Intelligence, codenamed • Medici '.
: said he had recognised Verster from the Sunday newspapers but did not reveal that he was aware of his background. He had simply informed him that there was a vacancy for a piJ.ot and that he would have to fill in application forms with the Nature Conservation office ill the northern industrial area, and then aWlllt a reply.

I JOSEPH MOTINGA
KA TUTURA taxi drivers Jesterday brought Windhoek's central business district to a halt and disrupted traffic as they effectively blockaded a number of main r oads.
The taxi drivers staged a one day strike to demand parking
rights in Billow Street. Part of their demand was eventually met when they were allowed to park on the left side of the street facing Independence Avenue.
The strike started early yesterday morning when taxi drivers blocked the eastern entrance to Biilow Street, by parking their cars across the road and right down to the junction with Tal Street, as well as a portion
of Stiibel Street, effectively blocking all entrances to Billow Street.
Those drivers who were unaware of the strike and were doing business as usual were forced to join the blockade resulting in a strike the likes of which has not been seen in Windhoek.
The taxi men complained that when construction on Btilow Street got underway the
Municipality promised that their parking rights would be re· stored once the construction work was finished. Previously Biilow Street has been one of the main taxi ranks in central Windhoek.
Inbetween taxis were to make use of a parking area alongside Wemhil Park, which some strikers described as resembling •• grids for cattle " . Since the commissioning of Biilow
Street last week, they have complained that the Municipality has not kept its promise.
When taxi drivers started using Biilow Street after it reopened, they have been penalised up to R~OO. They complained that there was not sufficient parking space for taxis, even around those areas where busses are allowed to

Knuckle-rap fQr DHPS after. 'could -do-better' report
THE teaching and hostel staff of the Deutsche Hoehere Privatschule (D HPS) are going back to the drawing-board following the report of a Commission of Enquiry into serious racial problems at the prestigious school.
After publication of the report, two meetings were held between the Education Ministry and representatives of the school board and school management.
·There was mutual agreement to continue regular consulta-
CCB FROM PAGE 1
Rumpf was then told by this reporter that Yerster had been arrested by police on charges of car theft on Tuesday morning.
LUBOWSKI
Although Yerster did not tell Rumpfhis 'real identity' there were others to whom he boasted about The Sunday Times report. He also reportedly claimed that CCB agent;Chappie Maree had 'pulled the trigger' on Lubowski, and that the driver in this case had· been Donald Acheson.
He also claimed that Maree had helped engineer the escape of the Outjo Three, and that he was the one who had allegedly shot a policeman during the escape.
Ferdi Barnard, another CCB member, had killed academic David Webster, Yerstermaintained.
Yerster, who is said to be the cousin of Joe Yerster, former managing director of the notorious Civil Cooperation Bureau (CCB), told The Sunday Times he had resigned from the SADF and CCB inNovember last year.
While a city councillor, he added, he had spied on trade unions, monitored council
Education for all? THE acting president of Nanso. Nathanael Araseb, said yesterday that the Educational Code of Conduct for Schools and the Educational Reform Directive of 1990 remained largely unimplemented. Speaking at theNanso extraordinary congress, Araseb said some schools had never even received the directives.
"On the other hand, the mass of students fonning the backbone of our organisation are still finding it difficult to have access to education."
tions and to take immediate steps to sort out the school's problems.
These steps will include a seminar for all school and hostel personnel and drawing up objectives and guidelines for future policy.
The aims and functions of both school and hostel, their admission requirements, and the proper communication of these and other related issues to parents in both German and English are all to be examined.
ID reaction to the report, the school board stated it was aware of racial incidents at the DlIPS,
colleagues and was what he called a "deep cover agent" with specific instructions to infiltrate Cosatu and win the confidence of 0 fficials to •• get inside the ANC".
Verster also spent some time in prison on fraud charges, which were later dropped. His wife, Salome, and other family members, said they did not know of his double life.
The Sunday Times said that " before leaving South Africa this weekend to make a new life for himself, Mr Verster said that although he had decided to go public with his story, he was not prepared to reveal the names of · fellow agents or- their controllers. Nor would he risk jeopardising ongoing intelligence operations by divulging details of those he had been involved in".
, DOUBLE LIFE
Yerster used several aliases while in South Africa, and reportedly hired the vehicle in the name of 'Hendrik Johann Steyn'. He then absconded to · Namibia with the vehicle.
The double agent told the Sunday Times he had lived under three names in the past
but stressed they were in contravention of the school's policy and were deplored by the school board and by the school and hostel management.
The Education Ministry, which instituted a Commission of Enquiry at DHPS after a number of racially-motivated incidents were brought to its attention, said it was satisfied that progress was now on the cards.
ID a joint press statement issued by both the Ministry and the DHPS, it was said that "Commission came to the conclusion that the school board
18 years. Even his wife, he added, had not known he was a full-time officer with Military IDtelligence. After officer's training in the SADF, he added, he had been asked to join a special unit known as D40. "This top secret unit - whose members call themselves the 'crows' - was so covert that not even my commanding officers knew about it. " 040, he added, was the forerunner of the CCB.
He said he was recruited to 040 because of his background
_ in industrial espionage. "The job was to gather intelligence from our enemies to strengthen the SADF." Unit D40, codenamed 'Barnacle', was made up of carefully selected recces. From 1979 to 1987he was seconded to 5 Recce and took part in a number of cross-border operations. ID 1985 he also took on the identity of Lieutenant Hendrik Johann Steyn, policeman. Verster was a member of the National Party who later switched to the Democratic Party 'because I became frustrated at the fail·ure of the council to move towards real reform'. Serving on the city council, he added, bad nothing to do with his covert professional life.
and the school management are fully aware ofcerainproblems and incidents and that all concerned have committed themselves to actions which could, if successfully implemented, prevent any further incidents".
The Ministry also paid tribute to the "high standard of teaching at DHPS" and said it wished to encourage the school and the hostel in their attempts "proceed to full equity and thus to fulfil their social responsibilities' '.
'CCB NECESSARY'
Verster said he chose to tell his story because F W de Klerk. SA State President, deserved the chance to prove himself and this could only happen once the truth about clandestine operations was out. Yerster added that "the CCB was never the evil, amoral organisation people believe it to have been. It was a necessary, intelligencegathering organisation, no different from the CIA, Mossad or MI6" . Only what he described as "a few bad eggs" inside the CCB, had given the organisation its bad name.

THE PHENOMENAL spread of Aids was once again the subject of hard-talking yesterday, the second day of a national workshop for NGO 's involved in combatting the killer disease.
Representative s from about 20 organisations met at the CCN headquarters in Windhoek to discuss their various roles in the fight and the formation of a national body to co-ordinate their efforts. This would be affiliated to the SouthernAfrican Network of Aids Service Organisations (Sanaso), which brings together 10 member countries of the sub-region.
Sanaso, which meets biennially, will hold its next conference in Windhoek in 1993. Namibian NGO's need to be properly co-ordinated on Aids
well before then. At yesterday's session, the
meeting drew up shOlt-term and long-telm strategies for action. These involved listing all organisations currently working on Aids contro(})lloritizing educational needs, improving NGO counselling services, organising a followup workshop for the groups, raising funds for Aids service NGO's, and preparing for this year's World Aids Day ("Sharing the Challenge").
On the opening day of the workshop, guest speaker Dr
Namibian accused PARAMOUNT Chief of the Tswana people and DTA Executive Member in the National Assembly Constance Kosimang yesterday accused The Namibian of false accusations.
The chief was reacting to reports in TIle Namibian over tribal beatings in which he was implicated.
He claimed this was " clearly aimed to sow division among the Tswana tribe and to paint a bad picture of the Tswana with the Namibian Government for cheap political gain".
Kosimang further denied that he had said he did not understand the Consititution, as reported in The Namibian, and said this paper "wanted to politicise proceedings according to customary laws" .
" I want to make it quite clear that I am vehemently opposed to any form of torture or to cruel, inhuman or degraiiing treatment or punishment. The Tswana people and their highly respected customs are at the moment experiencing a transitional
period like the rest of the N amibian nation.
"Corporal punishment, although it is still in clear violation of our Constitution, is one of those discarded practices which are still from time to time being practiced by many of our communities. We need an educational process to tell our peopel in the rem'ote areas to stop immediately with corporal punishment sentences at tribal courts. "
He also said one case of alleged tribal punishment - that of Jan Isaacs -quoted in the Namibian was merely a fight between people and added he was still " trying to investigate" the other two cases. He also wanted to make it clear to The Namibian that " we are all awaiting" the findings of the Kozonguizi Commission ofInquiry into Traditional Matters .
· .. ... THE NAMIBIAN
ABNER Xoagub, chairperson of the National Aids Control Programme.
Mazuwa Banda. chaitperson of Sanaso, stressed the potential ofNGO' s in the fight against Aids.
Because they were grassroots-based, have limited bureaucracy and have dedicated workers, they are often in a position to fill out gaps left by existing governmental organisations, said Banda.
He listed severai exanxples ofNGO action against Aids in other African countries, such a:sthe Coppert>elt He;Jili ~ducation Project in Zanxbia, the Aids Counselling Trust in Zimbabwe, the Red Cross blood scrQlOning services offered in Botswana, Malawi and Lesotho, home-based care provided by Zambian church groups and the Aids Support Organisation of Uganda. There were many others across the continent,
working in close co-operation with government programmes, said Banda.
Factors in favour of governmental success, were its permanent structures, its national coverage, its constant supply of resources and its authority, he went on.
A combination ofNGO and government efforts were therefore essential, as was a co=ordinated network of individual groups . . This would ensure s~d experience and information, a more even distribution of resources and a more realistic focus on the needs of actual communities.
With an estimated 10 million people in the world already infected with Aids - half of them in Africa - the time to act against Aids was now, stressed Banda.
The Namibian replies PARAMOUNT chief and DTA Executive Member Kosimang. it is a pity that we are forced to go on the attack against a man who is ~o widely respected. If you want to retract your position and to inform your traditional courts not to beat people, we welcome this change. But it is not in accordance with spirit of new Namibia if a leader cannot admit that he is only human and makes mistakes and instead chooses to accuse this newspaper of misrepresentation.
To put it politely. we think it is dishonest and not .worthy of a man of your standing. If you are unhappy with our reporting, we challenge you to take further action rather than to dishonestly try and cast doubts over our professional standards.
We made considerable efforts to contact you for your side of the story on Thursday, and again. on Sunday. Eventually we found you in Windhoek and agreed to hold the story until we had had an interview with you on Monday as we felt you might be tired after the lengthy Land Reform conference.
We had checked the story thoroughly and had spoken to four people of different political parties as well as to members of Tswana sub-tribes all of whom clearly said that you had said traditional courts should continue beatings.
Shortly 'after arranging the interview for the next day, you

stop. Another complaint frequently heard ' from taxi drivers yesterday was that traffic officials take stringent measures against taxi parking tresspasses . They pointed out that they have to pay R40 a week for licences, while parking space is restricted.
The police could only watch the strike action from a distance. They tried to intervene for a short while, but to no effect. .
Commuters from Katutura and Rehohoth were stranded throughout the day as the strikers refused to budge until their demands were met, while some workers left work to see what was going on.
Most taxi-users appeared to support the strike. They said they had to walk long distances to and from where they could be . offloaded, while others only had objections to what they saw as the "forceful way" in which other taxis were' 'urged" to join the strike.
A businessperson, C Stanley , who owns a shopping complex on Biilow Street, was sympathetic to the plight of the taxi drivers. He said it was not wise of the Municipality to prohibit parking along the street as it
inconvenienced customers in the area.
His views were shared by a truck driver, Isaack Goagoseb, who complained that he was not allowed to . offload goods ordered by shops along the street as there are now yellow stripes painted there.
The chairperson of the Namibian Black Taxi Association (Nabta), Joel Waters, said that through their action the strikers wanted to force Transport Minister Richard Kapelwa Kabajani to come down and resolve the issue. - However, no-one turned up. The strikers then sent a 10-strong delegation to the Ministry of Local Government and Housing. They stayed way for the second half of the day, up to 18hOO. A temporary agreement was reached in tenns of whi~h taxis will be allowed to use the left 'side of Biilow Street facing Independence Avenue until final arrangements are made.
However, taxis won't be allowed to stop longer than necessary to offload and pick up passengers or make u-tums into the right side of the street.
Some taxi drivers found the agreement insufficient and ~anted the strike to continue but agreed to postpone action pending an agreement with the municipal authorities.
chose to ring back that night to give your comments, but asked to speak to a reporter in Afrikaans. One of our most senior and respected repOlters was at hand and has notes of the conversation. He asked you about corporal punishment and you said you supported it, confirming our separate eye-witness reports.
Our reporter pointed out to you that this was at variance with your oath to uphold the Constitution. You said "I did not understand the Constitution" and joked that it shou ld have been translated in Tswana so you would understand it better - a point which we left out. You also said that it was not your role to end Tswana traditions. You rang back later and the reporter repeated the comments to you for checking. You variously confirmed them or laughed.
This was done in the presence of two other senior journalists. In addition, after speaking to you we 'phoned another DTA
leader, Dirk Mudge, for comment' on what you said to us. He declined to do so until he had spoken to you.
* In answer to your statement: You accuse us of politicising the issue. We firmly believe that.
human rights should not be politicised as it detracts from the absolute values embodied by points such as articles 5 - 25 of the· Constitution.
When claims @Xe brought to our attention that a member of the National Assembly is undermining tills Constitution, we hope we are not being political by publicising it. Further, we played down the DT A angle in writing the story . It was not meant as an attack on Tswanas or a particular political party and we welcome evidence of similar undermining in other parts of the country and by members of other parties. We are sure it exists.
In deference to your political position as well as the respect: many people have for you, we held back in our story. We also lef( out certain personal allegations surrounding the one beating. .- ,~ ", ..... ,a .. ~. ~ . , ____ , _________________ ..... _________ --..1

PRESIDENT SAM Nuj.oma yesterday thanked Prime Minister Hage Geingob and his team f.or 'a j.ob well d.one' .on the Land C.onference.
CDM stops bus sing workers from SA
TOMMINNEY
THE practice .of bossing w.orkers daily fr.om S.outh Africa acr.oss the Oppenheimer Bridge t.o w.ork at Oranjemund has been st.opped after a visit by H.ome Affairs Minister Hif'Ikepunye P.ohamba.
Consolidated Diamond Mines' acting personnel officer Etienne Bats said the mine was still waiting for clarification from Home Affairs Permanent Secretary Ndali Kamati, but in the meantime workers had been stopped from coming in and would be dismissed if their presence was illegal.
Before June 24 some 16 workers were brought by company bus from the CDM farm Beauyallonon thesouthbankoftheriverwheremilkand other foods are grown.
Bats said that on inquiry he had found that only four of them were CDM employees, three on work permits and one Namibian married to
someone who lives on the fann. The others, according to Bats, were all em
ployed by private firms at Oranjemund where nearly every business is run by CDM.
Israel Kalenga, second vice-president of the National Union of Niunibian Workers and national treasurer of the Mineworkers ' Union of Niunibia, said they worked in stables, CDM guesthouses the magistrates ' office and as domestic workers.
Kalenga said there was still too little control of work permits at CDM: "Here and there you hear rumours that such and such a person does not have a work permit. Only CDM controls them."
He accepted that experts should be there to train Namibians but called for others without work permits to leave the country.
Bats told The Niunibian that the company was doing all it could to comply with the requirements and in this case had suspended operations while it waited for clarification on what exactly the these were.
President proposes 'people's assemblies "THANKS f.or aj.ob well d.one," said President Sam Nuj.oma t.o Prime Minister Hage Geing.ob at a small cerem.ony at State H.ouse yesterday when he was presented with the res.oluti.ons .of a nati.onalland c.onference.
The President said he had been following the conference carefully since he opened it, and was so pleased with the result that he proposed a similar "people's assembly" every year on issues of national importance such as the econ-
omy. The 24 resolutions have been
finally drafted and there are also many research papers compiled by some of the world's top experts on land reform.

The team which had organised the conference was also presented to the conference.
A secretariat had co-ordi-
nated both the research, which was organised by the Niunibia Economic and Policy Research Unit, and the administration. They consisted of: Tangeni Hirkana (conference organiser and seconded from the Ministry of Education), Dr Wolfgang Wemer (Director of Lands, also seconded), Petms Damaseb (Permanent Secretary in the Prime Minister's Office), Bob
Kandetu (Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting), Nama Gaobab, Britons Richard Moorsom and Martin Adams (all from Nepm) and Zonia Janson (training officer in the Prime Minister's Office).
All looked tired but pleased with the results.

I AM a worker at Oshilkati State Hospital and I am not pleased by the way in which the Director of Health handles things there. We feel that there is nepotism when members of the workforce are selected.
I find it very strange because if . there is any vacant place in any department it seems that this person chooses friends to fill the vacancies.
We request the people concerned to send a commission of inquiry to investigate things here. There are people who want to maintain the status quo and not make any changes.
We have to ensure we serve the nation without fear or favour. Those in authority should act now and look into this matter.

We as democrats in a socalled democratic society should allow some exemptions. It is not good enough to say that you are married and have to be taxed heavily even though your husband is not employed. They must bear in mind that women are sometimes the breadwinners.

Lately more than 90 per cent of the two million population called for self-government ina referendum. But unlike Namibia, this overwhelming majority did not enjoy the support of the United Nations or the superpowers. This encouraged the Yugoslavian army to intervene violently as did the South African army in Namibia. Only now many European countries start to understand that there will never be a Yugoslavia including Slovenia again. But they are still reluctant to formally acknowledge the declaration of independence dating from June 26, as some have their own minority problems and others do not want to put burdens on their relations with the rest of Yugoslavia.
There needs to be a country which is far enough away from the crisis to act on the basis of principle and not self interest and which has the moral authority of its own history. This country should be Namibia as it gives not only proof that apartheid can be successfully overcome, but if there is a peaceful way to independence from South Africa, there should be a hundred ways in Yugosla
Anti-PLAN
ALLOW me to air my grievances on the situation at the Okahandja Military School. TIle school in question is headed by a certain Colonel who discriminates against former Plan combatants.
He even dismisses Plan combatants from the NDF, by labelling them as indisciplined, incompetent and bad elements who intend to 'overthrow authority' .
Some of the ex-Planinstructors were expelled from the institution on the pretext that they had failed the socalled progress test.
TIle British advisors, instead of cementing the integration of the former opposition forces, are contributing to their disintegration.
They are always saying that these 'Russian people and . communists' have to quit the Okahandja Military School. While on the other hand, former SW A TF and Koevoet members are the most favoured and many are recommended for promotions.
We want to ask whether this is a NDF military establishment or is it a SWATF business-like institution?
The NDF has been founded on the bones, blood, and sweat of true patriots who have sacrificed their lives for this land.
We don't want to return to former colonial times.
There should be no more maltreatment of our former fighters.
The top priority of the NDF should be the defence of our government and territorial integrity of our country.

WITH less than a week left before Namibian music-lovers will be treated to the dynamic sound of Stimela,.· backed by the husky voice of the one and only Nana Motijoane, alias Coyote, expectations are running high in Windhoek.
The 'Steam Engine' will entertain their local fans at the Independence Arena, Katutura.
Although the countrywide tour is off, the group will do a one-off show in Windhoek.
Also on the same bill will be the flamboyant TIlCmbi Sambo, yes that silky . voice dancercum-singer who made her solo debut as 'Storm'. Sambo is also a backing artist for Stimela.
In addition, Thami Sobukwe, that's right that velvet-voiced singer of 'I love you boy' fame, who has become know as a soul sensation with Soweto fans, will join the 'Slow Train' as Stimela are also known on the road tour.
And as can always be expected with EC Promotions,
Simple Beasts by Doug Hall
there will be music for evocyone ... and for those rootsconcerned Jab-Men - don't worry the reggae beat of Izzakka will smooth your souls.
Stimela are known for smashing township beats like 'Phinda Mzala', the electrifying 'Fire, Passion and Ecstasy' , the' warm and soulful 'Trouble in the Land of Plenty', the melodramatic 'Mind Games ' and last but not least, of course, the protesting 'Don't Whisper in the Deep'.
This is where the husky Coyote, also known as the 'Teddy Pendergrass' of South Africa, comes in.
Coyote, as many Stimela fans will remember, is the secret behind the groaning vocal cords of the band.
The vocal section is the main attraction of the Stimela sound on record. For thos~ who did not know the reason for this, band-leader Ray . Chikapa' Phiri and Nana Coyote share them on the records.
Coyote is also in great demand among other SouthAfrican groups be it as a back-up artist or in the recording studio. He was also responsible for the success of Steve
Kekana's smashing soulful hit 'Love Triangle' which melted the hearts of South African as well as Namibian girls.
Yes Namibian fans will see a show with perfection and professionalism second to none.
And if the band members repeat what this reporter experienced at ShareworId (next to the FNB/Soccer City near Soweto), a few years ago then local fans can brace themselves for the 'Concert of the Year'.
NANA Mosijane, alias Coyote, will lead Stimela's vocals when the steamy South African Afro Jazz group entertain Katutura music-lovers at the Independence Arena (former Katutura Amphitheatre) next Saturday - July 13.

Mandela accuses Pretoria of talking peace but waging war
DURBAN: African National Congress deputy president Nelson Mandela yesterday urged about 2 000 delegates at the organisation's 48th National Conference in Durban to look for ways to maintain sanctions until a democratic constitution was reached.
Mandela said ways had to be sought to stop th~ erosion of sanctions and maintain tlUs "weapon" until a democratic constitution had been adopted.
Addressing delegates, foreignandlocal guests and about 300 media representatives at the University of DurbanWestville, Mandela said the continued support of the international community remained vital for the ANC's victory.
The ANC still required international political and material support for the current phase of struggle, he said.
Officially opening the conference, ANC president Oliver Tambo, clearly suffering from ill health, also called for continued international'" support "including support to reconstruct the country in a post-apartheid era". . '
Mandlea reiterated the government's involvement "or connivance in the murder of innocent people" , and accused Pretoria of pursuing a double agenda: "One of talking peace, while actually conducting war."
Violence was deliberately being injected into black communities to retard the process towardso democracy, Mandela
Mandela again emphasised the demand for an elected constituent assembly, an interim government and mass mobilisation.
An interim government, however, had to be formed in a way that was broadly acceptable to the various political formations in the country and had to take on the character of a transitional government of national unity.
Mandela said the ANC comprised 700 000 members and called for greater effort in recruiting, especially among whites, "coloureds" andIndians to "remain a movement epresetative of all the people of soum Africa".
Commenting on Umkhonto we Sizwe, he said the military wing would play a vital role in the control of the security forces during the transition period.
"MK must prepare itself to become part of the new national defence force we shall have to build as part of the process of the reconstruction of our country:"
The ANC had suspended the armed struggle, not terminated it, andMKhad a responsibility to keep iteself in a state of readiness "in case the forces ' of counter-revolution once more block the path to a peaceful transition to a democratic society".
Mandela confirmed the ANC's continued alliance with the SA Communist Party by referring to them as a "firm
and dependable ally in the common struggle to rid our country of the system of white minority rule. We will, there; fore, rebuff all attempts to drive a wedge between our two organisations" .
The SACP was, however, a separate organisation which did not seek to dominate the ANC.
Mandela admitted the ANC's contact with other organisations had not been as strong as it should have been. The ANC had to advance the idea of a partiotic front that would enhance unity.
Mandela's address was preceeded by Tambo 's opening, who largely reviewed the organisation's past and emotionally thanked the international community and other supporters for their assistance to himself and the struggle.
He also urged that tlUs conference be the last under white minority rule.
The crowd in the university 's sports centre clapped, chanted and sang as the respected leader completed what is largely expected to be one of his last addresses as the ANC
president. The conference went into
closed session after lunch as delegates prepared to chart the organisation's crucial path to, what many believe, taking over as the next government of South Africa.
Vital to proceedings will be the election of a new, enlarged National Executive Committe on Friday. With confirmation that Thabo Mbeki and Chris Hani wil l not be standing for the position of deputy president, speCUlation is rife that the position may go to ANC stalwart Waiter Sisulu or possibly Intelligence chief Jacob Zuma.
However, the ANC insists elections are not the most crucial issue. Mandela summed up the conference's objectives in his address: "From this conference, we must fannulate the strategies and provide the leadership that can and will enable us to lead all the people of South Africa to the goal which the overwhelming majority seeks - that of justice, democracy, peace and prosperity. " -Sapa.

added in his strongest yet ~ ___________ ....L... ______________________ _
condemnation of the govern-ment on the violence issue.
He said before negotiations coUild continue, obstacles spelt out in the Harar~ De~laration and violence had to be overcome. An All-Party Congress would be the next step.
However, in a surprise statement, Mandela said the ANC should calculate on the congress "taking place sooner rather than later" .
All preparations for participation in the congress should take place "with some urgency", he added.
"Our demand is for freedom now. It can never be in our interest that we prolong the agony of the apartheid system. "
Mandela, almost certain to be elected the next ANC president at the five-day conference, said the process towards liberation was not a smooth one a; "we are dealing with a regime steeped in a culture of racism, violence and domination".
" We are dealing with a group of politicians, who do not want to negotiate themselves out of power, and representatives of the state who fear the impact of democratic change."
The ANC's struggle was not over as it had not defeated the government. Negotiations were a continuation of the struggle leading to the transfer of power to the people.

ANC comes out tops in poll JO HANNESB URG: Some 68 per cent of blacks say they will definitely vote for the ANC if there was an election, according to a recent Gallup Poll by Markinor.
Markinor said in a statement yesterday the Inkatha Freedom Party (!FP) had far more support among whites than among urban blacks, while "home" for many whites remained the National Party with 42 per cent indicating a deprute "yes" vote.
These results by Markinor . were drawn from 800 whites
and 1 300 blacks inmetropolitan areas throughout the country.
The poll established not a straight " pro" or "con" attitude towards specific parties, but different degrees of acceptance and rejection, according to Markinor' s deputy director, Christine Woessner.
" It looked at the dynamics operating within each party. This method of questioning is very popular overseas because it enables politicians to pin-
Just over 30 per cent of whites said they felt "quite good" about Inkatha, with an additional 15 per cent "perhaps" voting for it and four per cent "definitely" supporting the party if there was an election.
"Not unexpectedly, the ANC . emerges as the out-and-out
winner among metropolitan blacks, with 68 per cent saying they would definitely vote for the party and another 12 per cent saying they would perhaps support it in an election.
"Only three per cent of the blacks reject the ANC completely, with a further three per cent being 'personally against this organisatiuon'."
Markinor's poll showed that the picture was the exact opposite for whites. More than 42 per cent rejected the ANC out of hand, 26 per cent were personally against it, and a further 19 per cent had no feelings
against the party. Only 11 percent felt "quite
good about the ANC", even though they would not vote for it. A low two per cent would "perhaps" vote for the party in an election, while definite support for the party among whites registered "a straight zero".
For blacks, next in line in popularity after the ANC was the PAC " albeit with a mere seven per cent of definite support". However, an additional 24 per cent of blacks said they would peIhaps vote for the PAC, . with 17 per cent' 'feeling quite good" about the organisation. Its potential stood at 48 per cent.
Among the whites, the National Party came out ahead with 42 per cent of respondents registering a definite "yes" vote, 20 per cent a possible Yote, and 11 per cent "feeling quite good" about the party although they would not vote forit. This added up to a resounding total of 73 per
cent potential support. Among blacks, potential
support came to 46 per cent, consisting of six per cent "definite" votes, 22 per cent possible votes and 18 per cent "feeling quite good" about the National Party.
The Conservative Party was rejected totally by 48 per cent of blacks and 38 per cent of whites, and partially by 18 per cent of blacks and 12 per cent of whites. Only 16 per cent of whites would definitely vote
. for the party, with nine per cent possible votes and a further IOper cent" feeling quite good about the party".
Marlcinor said the Democratic Party showed some strength among both whites and blacks. Some six per cent of whites (four per cent blacks) would definitely vote for the organisation, 17 per cent of whites (10 per cent of blacks) would possibly vote for it, and 19 per cent of whites (18 per cent blacks) "feel quite good" about the party. - Sapa.
• point specific segments of the population, who are uncertain in their allegiance, and, therefore, open to external influ~ ences such as advertising."
Woessner said the shifters and switchers were the key players iri. 'an election and the research could identify who they were and how they could be motivated.
Responderits were asked to indicate their attitudes on a six-point scl!le ranging from "I reject this organisation completely and on principle .. , through to "I feel quite good about this organisation, but I would not vote for it", to "1 would definitely vote for this organisatio~ if there were an election". Sixty-two per cent of metropolitan blacks rejected Inkatha " completely and on ~ principle " , with another 16 per cent personally opposed to it. Only three per cent said they would " definitely" or "perhaps" Yote for the party if there was an election,
Chinese develop alternative work
BEIJING: Most Chinese employees spend up to half of their eight-hour work day wasting time, an official newspaper said yesterday.
Since employees actually work only four to five hours a day, the work day should simply be shortened so that workers could spend more time on other activities, argued the article by Chen Li, a member of the State Commission for Restructuring the Economy.

Factories could increase efficiency by shortening work shifts from eight hours to six and increasing the number of shifts from three to four, he wrote in a 'commentary in Economic Information Daily.
This would increase production by one-third and employ one-fourth more people, Chen said. China has more than 1,6 million people entering the worlc force annually.
Chen did not elaborate on what workers were doing, but a glance into any shop or office

The men, thought to be members of the Namibian Defence Force, were killed when t1ieir Nissan 720 pickup, travelling from Windhoek to Okahandja, collided with a Kudu approximately 36 kilometers from Windhoek. The vehicle's momentum carried it forward into collision with the Kudu. It then smashed into the railings of a bridge and overturned.
Four men were killed instantly, while the fifth died later in the Katutura hospital.
Nasemand not Nanso
IN our edition of Friday June 28, In a report headlined 'Land summit agrees on some key Issues', we erroneously reported a Nanso representative as saying It would be a disservice to allow foreign ownership (of land) and requested le~latlon which would prevent It. In fact the speaker, who merely said he was 'representing the students', was reportedly a Nasem representative.

DRIE strate in die middestad was gister vir algemene verkeer gesluit nadat huurmotorbestuurders gestaak het en verkeer verhinder het om van bierdie paaie
• gebruik te maak. Huurmotorbestuurders is blykbaar deur die munisipaliteit verseker dat hulle toegelaat sal word om in BiiIowstraat stil te bou vir die op- en .af1aai van passassiers.
Dit was gister maar "swaar-dra-al-aan-die-een kant" vir sommige van die polisiemanne van Windboek toe bulle 'n huurmotor wat Okahandjaweg blokkeer bet moes verwyder. Foto:John Walenga
Die straat is oogeveer 'n week gelede weer in gebruik geneem maar daar is geel strepe aan die kant van die pad aangebling. Dit beteken dat hUUInlotors nie meer daar mag stilhou nie.
Bestuurders het vir die afgelope week die een boete na die ander opgetel wanneer hulle betrap is. Boetes was so hoog as R100 per oortreding.
Laat gisternamiddag is daar
aan 'ndeel van die bestuurders se versoek voldoen toe hulle in kennis gestel is dat hulle aan die een kant van die pad mag stilhou totdat 'n vergadering gehou en met die munisipaliteit 'n ooreenkoms bereik is.
Hulle moet ' egter nie hul voertuie in die straat parkeer nie en mag net lank genoeg stilhou om passasiers op of af te laai.
Hulle sal ook nie toegelaat word om met hul motors in die straat om te draai nie.
Sommige was nog nie tevrede met hierdie besluit nie en wou voortgaan met die staking. Uiteindelik is besluit om die ooreenkoms te aanvaar tot die saak ten volle ppgelos is.
Gister was dit nie duidelik presies hoe die staking begin

het nie. V olgens een weergawe het
die staking spontaan uitgebreek na 'n voorval waar 'n verkeerskonstabel 'n boete wou uitreik aan 'nhuurmotorbestuurder wat sy motor op 'n geel streep parkeer het.
Ander bestuurders het hul aan die lomt van die man geskaar en later het die meeste huurmotors van Katutura in die strnte gestaan .
'nAnder weergawe is dat 'n groep onder die bestuurders gister op 'n staking besluit het en andere daarvan ingelig het.
Nog 'n ander weergawe is dat een van die bestuurders doelbewus parkeer het waar
hy nie moes nie om 'n reaksie van die verkeerspolisie uit te lok.
Dit was egter duidelik dat sommige bestuurders niks van die staking geweet het nie en tot laat gistemamiddag was daar van hulle wat meer duideli.kheid van die ander wou he alhoewel hulle meegemaak het.
'n Afvaardiging van tien huUInlotOIbestuurders onder die leidingvan Joel Waters, Voorsitter van die huurmotorvereniging, is gestuur om met die kantoor van die Minister van Vervoer te onderhandel.
Byna alle huurmotors van Katutura en Khomasdal het vir die res van die dag nie
voortgegaan met besigheid ·nie. Munisipale busse is ook
verhoed om vanaf die busstop weg te trek.
Intussen moes baie van die werkers voetslaan na hul woonbuurte of ryloop.
Die afvaardiging het ongeveer 18:00 teruggekeer om die stakers in te lig van die ooreenkoms wat bereik is.
Intussen sal daar voort gegeen word om reelings te tref vir 'n vergadering wat met die munisipaliteit gel'iou sal word.
. Huurmotors het onmiddelik( na die ooreenkoms weer; voortgegaan met hul normale l
besigheid.
NATAU vra streng optrede na aanranding Op sekuriteitswag
ALPHA Iyambo, Voorsitter van die Namibia Transport and Allied Workers Union, het volgens Nampa, Transnamib versoek om een van sy senior sekuriteitsbeamptes af te dank en twee ander tydelik te skors.
Hierdie versoek spruit uit 'n voorval op Saterdag waar beweer word Karel OberlwIzer, 'n senior sekuriteitsbeampte, het vir Daniel Cloete, 'n sekuriteitswag, aangerand.
Iyambo het die standaardprosedure by Transnamib aangehaal en gese dat OberhoIzer volgens die voorskrifte afgedank moet word terwyl Steven Martens en Richard Freyer tydelik geskors moet word. Die voorval het blykbaar ontstaan nadat Cloete en 'n kollega, Set Gariseb, op Sondag omstreeks 14h30 vir diens aangemeld het terwy I hulle nie uniforms gedra het nie.
Hulle is deur hul seniors opdrag gegee om terug te gaan en uniforms aan le trek.
Hulle is met 'n voertuig by
die woonplek van Cloete afgelaai en het hulself gereed gemaak vir werk.
Laterwashullemet'nander ' voertuig oppad werk toe, toe Oberholzer op 'n motorfiets aangekom en die bestuurder van die motor gevrahet om stil te hou. ObemoIzer het na bewering Cloete nader geroep en sonder enige rede aangerand terwyl hy rassistiese opmerkings gemaak het
Later het hulle na die werksplek gegaari en by hul aankoms het Steven Martens, die hoofsekuriteitsbeampte, Cloete se diensknuppel van horn afgeneem.
Cloete is hospitaal toe en nadat hy behandeling ontvang het, het hy 'n k1ag by die polisie aanhanging gemaak.
Iyambo het gister gese hierdie voorval is van so 'n emstige aard dat dit onmiddelik veroordeel moet word.
Hy erken die ooreenkoms wat tussen die vakunie en Transnamib aangegaan is maar verwag streng optrede van die semi-staatsinstelling. Indien nie opgetree word nie km dit beskou word as duidelike diskriminerende optrede deur Transnamib, het hy gewaarsku.
Hy het ook beswaar gemaak teen die samestelling van die ondersoekspan aangesien die vermeende oortreders ook op hierdie span is en die klagte teen hulle self ondersoek.
Iyambo het vir ' n onafhanklike ondersoekspan gevra o}ndat 'n ander saak reeds teen Oberholzer en 'n paar ander ondersoek word.
Die bevinding in die vorige saak was nog nie bekend toe Oberholzer in hierdie voorval betrokke geraak het nie.
Ondersteuners nie hele gemeenskap DIE lede van die Ultvoerende
'komitee van die Swapo-tak op Rehoboth het by monde van Welbert Ockhuizen beswaar gemaak teen berlgte oor die onlangse vergaderlng van Hans Dlergaardt op Rehoboth. Dit Is
volgens die komitee rue bUnk om na 2 000 ondersteuners van Dlergaardt te v'erwys as die gemeenskap van Rehoboth rue.

14 Wednesday July 3 1991 THE ~AMIBIAN
Dennis steals race from Carl and Ben VILLENEUVE D' ASCQ, France: The night was supposed to belong to Carl Lewis and Ben Johnson. But Dennis Mitchell had other ideas.
Mitchell ran away with the 100 metres at the BNP Grand Prix meet on Monday night, leaving Lewis in second place and Johnson in seventh.
So much for the much- acclaimed rematch between Lewis and Johnson, their first headto-head confrontation since the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.
Lewis finished nearly three metres ahead of Johnson in 10,20 seconds. Johnson was clocked in 10,46.
But neither was any match for Mitchell, who led from nearly start to finish and crossed the tape in 10,09. 1bird place in the eight-man field went to 'btapade Adeniken of Nigeria "ill 10,22.
Mitchell has been one of the world's top sprinters for sev-

eral years but always seems to languish in the shadow of others.
Mitchell finished fourth in the 100 at the 1988 Games, and placed third behind Leroy Burrell and Lewis at the US championships last month. But he also had a win over Lewis on May 30 in Spain.
, 'Every track meet I've been to, it's been Carl and Ben and Leroy (BurreU), " Mitchell said. "That's the way it is and it doesn't bother me. Ijust show up and do my thing. It's the story of my life. I'm an unsung hero."
In fact, it was Lewis and Johnson whom most of the 30 000 fans and hundreds of journalists had come to see in this town outside Lille near the

Belgian border. The last time they faced each
other, Johnson beat Lewis in the 100 final in Seoul, only to lose the gold medal and world record after testing positive for steroids.
Johnson, running in his fifth 100 metres since returning to' action after a two-year suspension, stayed even with Lewis for the first 50 metres but then faded.
"That's his race, to run the best 50 he can," Lewis said. " But we're running the 100."
Johnson said, "At 45 to 50 metres I tried to change gears but I didn't have enough en.ergy ."
In his frur pre\'ious 100 meter races this year, the Canadian clocked 10,54, 10,69, 10,41 and 10,40 - a far cry from his 9,79 in Seoul.
J ohnson had agreed before the meet to give back 25 percent of his pay check if he failed to break 10,17. Both runners were reportedly offered 250 000 dollars for the race.
Lewis, who was running on his 30th birthday, blamed the weather conditions for his own modest performance.
"I just felt very tight," he said. "I didn't feel really loose.
I started well, but Ijust wasn't able to accelerate. It was very cold and the rain definitely didn't help us."
The race did not put an end to the hatred between J ohnson and Lewis.
Even though they were only centimetres apart in adjoining lanes, they refused to look at each in the warm-up.
Lewis offered a quick handshake to all the runners before the start, but Johnson motioned him to stay away.
"I didn't want to give it to hin}" .. J ohnson said. "As long as we're competing, that can't happen."
The two are scheduled to run against each other again on August 5 in Sweden. There were other big names competing on Monday, but there were no exceptional performances.
Sergei Bubka won the pole vault at 5,82 metres but failed at three attempts to break his world record of 6.09.
Burrell won the 200 in 20,31, while Michael Johnson took the 400 in 45,09.
The top individual performance was ' by Britain's Tony J arret, who won the 110 meter hurdles in 13,19, the best time of the year. - Sapa-AP.
Attempts 'to have last weekend's fixtures boycotted, came to nothing, if they existed at all. A full league programme was played, arid it brought the "Glamour Boys" DynamosZimbabwe 's equivalent of Kaiser Chiefs - to the top of the super league log for the first time in almost two years.
Meanwhile, losses to Zimbabwe of its best and most experienced sportsmen over the years is prompting calls for the "bonding" of talented youngsters, along th~ lines apprentices are sometimes bonded for ' a period following their apprenticeships.
The advisory report says: , , We are investing in too many young people who have no intention of giving back much, if anything, in retum' ~ .
Zimbabwe sports authorities and sports journalists have never accepted the fact that any young sportsman or woman who is clearly world class or has that potential is bound to move on and test his or her skills, and possibly make a h>t of money, against the top opposition. That is why McNulty, Price, Grobbelaar, Hick and others have not been considered by the Sportswriters AS'sociatlon for honours at their Sportsperson of the Year banquet every November since turning professional. - Sapa.

Kuppe clinches gearbox race ' THE astonishing 56-year-old Artur Kuppe of the Road Athlete team won the Axles and Gearboxes cycle race, when he outsprinted his breakaway' partner Gemt Labusc\lagne (Cymot).
Despite. the absence of the four-man Namibian team who are taking part in the Zimbabwean Classic in Harare, the racing was keenly contested. At the end of the first of two laps the leading group was down to 10 riders as Gemt Labuschagne and Henry Page (Cymot) forced the pace over the hills on the Brakwater 'service road.
With 40 of the 55km covered Labuschagne and Kuppe broke away, and with both the Road Athlete and Cymot teams initially hesitant to chase down their own men, they managed to stay away to the end.
Kuppe underlined his recent excellent form by pipping Labuschagne in the sprint. Johan Liebenberg (Road Athlete) led the bunch for a well-earned third place. First junior was Gunther Swaboda ahead of George Roque (both Cymot junior) and Sasha Kipping (Road Athlete).
In a shorter race over 40km for ladies and all-comers, Michael du Plessis was first ahead of Michael Hennes and Conrad Mouton. First girl was Hike Burger.

SPECI·AL· FOCUS ON WIMBLEDON
The Brat bows· out to Edberg LONDON; Top seed Stefan Edberg used a couple of short streaks to overwhelm threetime champion John McEmoe in straight sets yesterday and reach the Wimbledon quarterfinals.
Edberg ran off 15 straight points midway through the second set, then won 16 of 20 points in a third-set spurt in the 7-6,6-1,6-4 victory.
Top women's seed Steffi Graf and fifth seed Mary Joe Fernandez rolled to easy victories, advancing to a semifinal clash.
Graf defeated seventh seed Zina Garrison 6-1,6-3, gaining revenge for her loss to Garrison in the 1990 semifinals. Fernandez won 6-2, 7-5 over f~urth seed Arantxa Sanchez Vicario.
Edberg, the defending men's champion, won a 7-4 tie-breaker after a first set that went entirely on serve. Then he took control against the 16th-seeded McEnroe, who seemed to sag after the tie-breaker.
"He outplayed me. When it really came down to it, he just played a little better than I did, " said McEnroe, who complained about a few line calls but avoided any major verbal explosions.
"His game is suited to grass, it's a natural. Anyone that
volleys that well is going to be good on grass. I would have preferred to play a lot of other guys. "
Edberg said he had expected a tougher match against McEn-roe . •
"I still believe he can play some very good tennis out there, but he 's not as consistent as he was before," Edberg Sliid. "He has lost a little bit of his speed, but there's still a lot of greatness out there. "
Also advancing to the quarterfinals was French Open champion Jim Courier, who defeated 14th seed Karel Novacek 6-3, 6-4, 6-2.
The fourth seed, whose best previous Wimbledon performance was reaching the third round last year, has lost only 13 games in his last two victories.
"It's kind of unexpected to me, because I'm not a natural grass-court player," Courier said. ''I'm pleasantly surPrised to be in the quarterfinals."
His next opponent will be sixth seed Michael Stich, who rallied to win the final three gamesofhis4-6,6-3,7-5,1-6, 7-5 victory over Alexander Volkov. Courier defeated Stich in the semifinals of the French Open.
Three other Americans won on Monday. Andre Agassi,
David Wheaton and Tim Mayotte have taken Wimbledon by storm, rolling through the tournament with hardly a care in the world.
The three Yanks have been checking out tourist sites, blowing kisses to girlfriends and showing off their new threads - and playing some excellent tennis on the side.
And they're having a heck of a time.
"The excitement of Wimbledon speaks for itself. Just being here at Wimbledon and having such a wann response is something more than anyone really deserves," said Agassi, a crowd favourite who used a day off on Sunday to tour the town.
, 'Yesterday I just went sightseeing all day and saw a bunch of things that I don't remember the names to. But I enjoyed them."
Agassi, who defeated Dutch teen-ager Richard Krajicek 7-6, 6-3, 7-6, stuck with his traditional all-white outfit but added designer sunglasses for a few games Monday.
Wheaton, showing off his stars and stripes bandana on Centre Court, wiped out third seed Ivan Lendl.
The Minnesotan boomed 16 aces in a 6-3, 3-6, 7-6, 6-3 defeat of the two-time Wim-
Deeo um returns o Wimbledon LONDON: A garden-party atmosphere returned to the All England Club on Monday as pinstriped businessmen reclaimed Centre Court after a one-day br,eakwith a century of tradition.
Gone were the high-spirited antics of the 25 000 tennis fans who waited in line for hours to buy cheap tickets, offered when the rain-plagued tournament had to play on its Sunday rest day.
The regular Wimbledon crowd, older and more subdued, did not mimic the Sunday crew's wave that circled the stands of Centre Court. In fact, many seats were empty.
There was no standing ovation for the ballboys and ballgirls. Jimmy Connors ' antics were replaced by curtsies and bows to the Duchess of Kent, back in a Royal Box that was abandoned to c,ommoners on Sunday.
Gabriela Sabatini was on Centre Court again, but the wild enthusiasm gave way to the politesse of Monday'S champagne set.
The Argentine said she played much better on Sunday, but "I, feel no matter who I play in front of, you always have to try to play your best."
Although he lumps himself with the worst of the tennis dilettantes, John Hobbs said he was bored on Monday and that he admired Sunday's festive mood.
popping again on Monday after a slow day on Sunday, when sales dropped to half the normal level. Tables were in demand again at the Wingfield Restaurant, where a lunch of peeled prawns, poached salmon, and strawberries and cream costs 2 1,95 pounds (34,.50 dollars). A luxury souvenir shop was also bustling again 00 Mon-
day. On Sunday it had closed early, "and we really didn't need to open at all ," said assistant manager Susie Manby.
" They were really interested in tennis. They weren't interested in buying things," she said.
One fan~ 10 Farrington, said she was delighted by Sunday's enthusiastic ragtag crowd, a sharp contrast to the dignified but largely disinterested group that usually fills the stands.
.. I' m not into the tradition, .. she said. - Sapa-AP.
" It was great. I ~ the atmosphere has gotten too commercial, " Hobbs said while renting a seat cushion. " It's a lot of older people like meher~ . for a nice alcoholic lunch and • the tennis is only incidental. "
But vendors were happy with the return to normal.
Champagne corks were

bledon finalist. It was the earliest Lendl had
left a Grand Slam tournarnent in 10 years.
But Wheaton was not yet ready to party.
"Youcando that if you beat him in the finals of the tournament, but when you 're in the middle of the tournament you're still trying to win the whole thing," he said. "It's not just one match.
It's not like a boxing match where you knock the guy out and go celebrate. "
Mayotte, who smiled tlnuugh the last three sets of his firstround comeback victory over Michael Chang and then blew kisses to his girlfriend, laughed his way to another victory on Monday.
The unseeded Mayotte, playing in his first tournament since April, defeated Patrik Kuhnen 3-6,6-2,7-6,6-4.
The Americans said they draw inspiration from each other. Wheaton said he was spurred on by Courier's recent victory in the French Open.
"It kind of gave me the feeling that I could win a Grand Slam also," said Wheaton, a grass-court specialist who also reached the fourth round at Wimbledon last year. "I guess it did in a way fortify me a little bit." - Sapa-AP.
LONDON: OnAndreAgassi ' s previous visit to Wimbledon four years ago, the American stayed for just one round and left feeling that he and Wimbledon weren't made for each other.
Now the player with the bleached hair and dangling earring enjoys playing on the grass courts, doesn't mind wearing all white and is appreciating the t,ournarnent's 114 years of tradition.
"I feel like I'm a qualifier having the tournament of his life. It's so exciting for me every match," Agassi said.
"As the days go by, I'm starting to understand the concept of grass," said Agassi, whose hard-slugging groundstroke game was honed on hard or clay courts.
, 'I'm getting a better feel as matches go by ...
Agassi lost in the first round to Frenchman Henri Leconte in his only other Wimbledon appearance, in 1987.
This time around, with Monday's departure of No 3 seed Ivan Lendl, Agassi sees a path without seeds to the semifinal opening up before him.
Two more seeds inhis quarter of the draw, No 11 Emilio Sanchez and No 13 Jakob
. Hlasek, failed to make the third round.
But Agassi is still among strong grass court and
