In July 1914 she saved a 21-year old maid from drowning in the in Gorredijk. Male bystanders couldn’t swim and did’t dare to jump into the water. She later received for it a diploma and silver medal by the swimming federation.

Water polo for women was at the time not Olympic. At the 1920 Summer Olympics, women’s water polo was held as a demonstration event. She competed in this water polo exhibition match where two Dutch teams played against each other.
Helweg was also a board member of H.D.Z.. She was elected in 1912, and re-elected in 1914. In 1915 she became a member af the research department.

House of Cards (novel)
|
House of Cards is a novella by Baron Michael Dobbs.
After an argument with Margaret Thatcher, Dobbs decided to write a book whose protagonist was an evil politician with the initials F.U. So he made a fictional character named Francis Uruqhart.
Plot.
In the book, Uruqhart finds out that a man named Roger O’Neal is addicted to cocaine and blackmails O’Neal into helping him while Uruqhart has an affair with a female journalist named Mattie Storin so she will write the stories that he wants her to write.
Then Roger O’Neal’s girlfriend breaks up with him so he has a nervous breakdown. He is angry with Uruqhart so Uruqhart gets O’Neal drunk until he falls asleep and puts rat poison in O’Neal’s cocaine to kill him and make the murder look like a suicide. Uruqhart feels guilty about that so when Mattie asks him if he killed Roger O’Neal he kills himself by jumping off a balcony.
BBC TV show.
The BBC made a television miniseries created by Andrew Davies based on the book and called it House of Cards. In it, Francis Uruqhart was played by Ian Richardson. The show changed the ending to Uruqhart killing Mattie Storin so that he could become Prime Minister of Great Britain. After the show was a success, Dobbs wrote two books as sequels to it called ”To Play the King” and ”The Final Cut” both of which were adapted into the show.
US version.
In 2013, Netflix made an American version of the television series "House of Cards" created by Beau Willimon starring Kevin Spacey as Frank Underwood.
