 This is part of a report by the Chairman of the Charities Commitee
of a Club.
By Match this year, we shall have raised enough money, we hope, to
buy the equipment for the Youth Club. When we have raised the
money, we are planning to go back to the Youth Club leaders in

order to discover exactly what is needed most. Plans have been
made for the Book Sale which will be held on 15th February, This
means that many of us will be spending the first two weeks of
February collecting books. The event is likely to be held in the
Town Hall. If there are problems here, however, we hope that
other Club members might come up with some alternative
suggestions.
As we are proposing to sponsor a student from Africa on a three-
month language course in this country, we also intend to hold a
Charity Dance in the spring. Such events are apt to be difficult to
organize, so all members of the Club are invited to contribute or
help in any way they can.
The moment I was asked if we could possibly help in some way with
the new Club for the Disabled. I said yes. As Chairman, lam
bound to say that this is the sort of social work many Club
members would like to do, other than simply raising money. We
are therefore planning to ask members if they can perhaps help
out 'on one Saturday every month (on a rota basis).
Finally, by January next year the Club will have been going for twenty
years, and the Committee intend to mark this anniversary with
some kind of dinner, a dance or a party. We have already been
offered (unofficially) the use of the dance all at 'The Forest Hotel'.
However, we shall be devoting one of our meetings in the near
future to full discussion on the form of the event, etc. Any
suggestions will be welcome.

collect old books from them

 A YEAR WITH OVERSEAS VOLUNTEERS
I was with Overseas Volunteers (OV) for a year after leaving university,
and I was sent to an isolated village in Chad, about 500 km from
the capital N'Djamena. Coming from' a rich country, I got quite a
shock as conditions were much harder than I had expected. But
after a few days I soon got used to living there. The people were
always very friendly and helpful, and soon I began to appreciate

how beautiful the countryside was.
One of my jobs was to supply the village with water. The well was a
long walk away. And the women used to spend a long time every
day carrying heavy pots backwards and forwards. So I contacted
organization and arranged to have some pipes delivered. We built a
simple pipeline and a pump, and it worked first time. It wasn't
perfect - there were a few leaks, but it made a great difference to
the villagers, who had never had running water before. And not
only did we have running water, but in the evenings it was hot,
because the pipe had been lying in the sun all day. All in all, I
think .my time with OV was a good experience. Although it was
not well-paid, it was well worth doing, and I would recommend it
to anyone who was considering working for a charity.

 THE OLYMPIC GAMES
During the Olympic games, people from all over the world come
together
in peace and friendship. Some of these people compete for medals.
Several million people attend the games, and millions of other
people watch them on television.
Why do we have the Olympic games? How did they begin? The first
Olympic Games that we have records of were in Greece in 776
B.C. The games lasted one day. The only event in the first thirteen
Olympic Games was a race. Men ran the length of the stadium
(about 192 meters). Then, longer running races were added.
Through the years, a few other kinds of events, like the long
jump, were also added. During this time, the games were for men
only, and women could not even watch them. In the year 393, a
Roman emperor ended the Olympic Games because the quality of
the games became very low. The Olympics did not take place
again for 1500 years!
In 1894, Pierre de Courbertin of France helped form the International
Olympic Committee, and the modern Olympic Games began. In
1896 the games were held again in Athens, Greece. The Greeks
built a new stadium for the competition. Three hundred and
eleven athletes from thirteen countries competed in many events.
The winners became national heroes.
After 1896, the games were held every four years during the summer
in different cities around the world. In 1900, the Olympics were
in Paris, France, and women competed for the first time. In 1908,

in London, England, the first gold medals were given to winning
athletes. Before that time, the winners received only silver and
bronze. medals.
The Olympic flag was first introduced in 1920 in Antwerp, Belgium.
The flag has five rings on it. The rings represent the continents of
Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North and South America.
Each ring is a different colorblue, yellow, black, green, or red -
because the flag of each of the countries that compete in the
games has at least one of these colors in it.
The Olympic Winter Games began in 1924 in Chamois, France.
Athletes
competed in winter events such as skiing, ice skating, and ice hockey.
Today, the Winter Games take place every four years. The
Summer Games also take place every four years, but not. in the
same year as the winter events. Both the Summer Games and the
Winter Games must have at least fifteen events, and they cannot
last more than sixteen days.
Until recently, Olympic competitors could not be professional athletes.
All of the athletes in the Olympic Games were amateurs. Today,
however, many of the Olympic athletes are professionals who
play their sports for money during the year. Some people disagree
with this idea. They believe that the Olympic Games are for
amateur athletes, not paid professionals. Other people think that
anyone can play in the Olympic Games. No matter who the
athletes are, millions of people throughout the world enjoy
watching the greatest athletic competitions, the Summer games
and the Winter Games of the Olympics.

 Competition is a factor ineducation. On a global scale, national
education systems, intending to bring out the best in the next
generation, encourage competitiveness among students by
scholarships. Countries like Singapore and England have a special
education program which caters to special students, promting
charges of academic elitism. Upon receipt of their academic
results, students tend to compare their grades to see who is better.
For servere cases, the pressure to perfrom in some countries is so
high that it results in stigmatization of intellectually deficient
students or even suicide as consequence of failing the exams,
Japan being a prime example. This has resulted in critical
revaluation of examinations as a whole by educationists. Critics
of competition as opposed to excellence as a motivating factor in
education systems, such as Alfie Kohn, assert that competition
actually has a net negative influence on the achivement levels of
students and that it “turns all of us into losers.”
Competitions also make up a large proponent of extracurricular
activities that students partake in. Such competitions include
TVO’s broadcast Reach for the Top competition, FIRST
Robotics, Duke Annual Robo-Climb Competition(DARC) and the
University of Toronto Space Design Contest.

D. There are many kinds of competitions in the world.
 Completing a marathon is considered very difficult, but many
coaches believe that it is possible for anyone who is willing to put
in the time and effort. Obviously, most participants don’t run a
marathon to win. More important for most runners is their
personal finish time and their placement within their specific age
group and gender. Another very important goal is to break certain
time barriers. For example, ambitious recreational first-timers
often try to run the marathon under 4 hours, more competitive
runners will attempt to run under 3 hours. Many runners then

prefer to finish for example in 3:29:59, which makes them “sub-
3:30h marathoners”, instead of 3:30:01.
For most runners, the marathon is the longest run they have ever
attempted. Many coaches believe that the most important element
in marathon training is the long run. Recreational runners
commonly try to reach a maximum of about 20 miles in their
longest weekly run and about 40 miles a week in total when
training for the marathon. More experienced marathoners may run
a longer distance. During marathon training, adequate recovery
times is crucial. If fatigue or pain is felt, it is recommended to
take a break for a couple of days or more to let the body heal.
Overtraining is a condition that results from not getting enough
rest to allow the body to recover from difficult training. It can
actually result in a lower endurance and speed and place a runner
at a greater risk of injury.
