Narrated by Joe Stack of RTE, the documentary tells the story of events that happened in North Kerry during the period referred to as ‘The Decade of Centenaries’ from 1912 to 1922, with particular emphasis on the War of Independence from January to July 1921.

It includes contributions from a number of local historians and focuses on the personal stories of family members who were directly involved.

GRAVES: Columbarium wall at Rath Cemetery in Tralee, recently installed. Each space costs €1,200.

TREES: The study team analyzed almost 80,000 satellite photo measurements of tree cover worldwide and combined them with enormous global databases about soil and climate conditions, evaluating one hectare at a time. The exercise generated a detailed map of how many trees the earth could naturally support—where forests grow now and where they could grow, outside of areas such as deserts and savannahs that support very few or no trees. The team then subtracted existing forests and also urban areas and land used for agriculture. That left 0.9 billion hectares that could be forested but have not been. If those spaces were filled with trees that already flourish nearby, the new growth could store 205 gigatons of carbon by the time the forests mature.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1973 THE IRISH PEOPLE PAGE 19 I NATIONAL HURLING LEAGUE Limerick Lucky To Beat Clare It’s Limerick’s Day At Gaelic Park On Sunday Limerick 3-9 Clare 0-14 Limerick All-Ireland Hurling champions made the short trip to Cusack Park, Ennis to take the locals in the opening game of the N.H.L. campaign and were lucky to return with two points after a tough, gruelling game that kept the referee John Maloney busy. Clare lost two players and Limerick one during the course of the game. It was only in the last few minutes that Limerick sealed the game with fast goals, goals that Durack would normally have saved but he had suffered an injury previously during a goal mouth melee. It is doubtful if Limerick would have taken the honors were it not for the fact that Clare, played with 13 men for the last 20 minutes of the second half. Before the game started John Hanly chairman of the Clare County Board presented Rory Kiely his Limerick counterpart with a plaque inscribed with the names of all the Limerick players to honor their All-Ireland victory. This fine gesture wasn’t any guide to what was in store for the game itself. (See paper for more)

The Limerick men will be the hosts at Gaelic Park on Sunday. Sean Giltenane and James McCoy are Co-Chairmen of the day and have a very attractive schedule of games arranged. For openers we have Cork and Roscommon in Junior Football.
