Confidence Vote for Students' President

Confidence Vote for Students' President

Auckland—At an extraordinary general meeting held in the Auckland University College Hall on Wednesday, June 15, a widely attended meeting of the student body expressed confidence by a large majority in its president, Mr M. F. P. Frankovich.

The meeting considered Mr Frankovich's actions in connection with the removal of certain portions of Capping Book. The executive of the student body had previously passed a motion of no confidence in the president on the grounds that he had acted unconstitutionally.

Decision Held

In addition the executive had reaffirmed its previous decision to print the portions of Capping Book in question, despite legal opinions expressed to the contrary.

At Wednesday's meeting Mr Frankovich resumed the chair shortly after midnight, amid applause.

Some members of the executive have since tendered their resignations, which will be considered at the next executive meeting.
