50 knights of King Arthur sat at the Round Table. A glass of white or red wine stood before each of them. It is known that at least one glass of red wine and at least one glass of white wine stood on the table. The king clapped his hands twice. After the first clap every knight with a glass of red wine before him took a glass from his left neighbour. After the second clap every knight with a glass of white wine (and possibly something more) before him gave this glass to the left neughbour of his left neighbour. Prove that some knight was left without wine. [i]Proposed by A. Khrabrov, incorrect translation from Hungarian[/i]

On a straight track are several runners, each running at a different constant speed. They start at one end of the track at the same time. When a runner reaches any end of the track, he immediately turns around and runs back with the same speed (then he reaches the other end and turns back again, and so on). Some time after the start, all runners meet at the same point. Prove that this will happen again.
