Asian Seminar in N.Z.?

There is good chance New Zealand will be host country for the 1957 Asian Student Seminar, an annual event sponsored by International Student Conference—the body of which Co-Sec. is administrative arm. After hearing a report from David Stone on his Manila trip, N.Z.U.S.A. resident exec. decided in March to recommend Colleges to discuss the practicability of the suggestion.

The seminar would be attended by representatives from Australia, Burma, Ceylon, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan. Malaya, Pakistan, the Philippines, and Vietnam—and others we might wish to invite (why not China?). Suggested venue is Auckland, in the second week of August vacation, giving the delegates the chance of meeting the pretty fair cross-section of New Zealand students who foregather there for winter tournament, N.Z.U.S.A., and N.Z.U. Student Press Council.

They put the "Rock" in Rock-'N-Roll

The V.U.C. Geological Society's Annual General Meeting (held Tuesday evening, 2nd April) was attended by 50 people. The newly elected committee (President: Jim Ting; Secretary-Treasurer: Jill Le Fort. Committee men: Barry Webby, Barry McKelvey, Peter Webb) was empowered by a resolution to co-opt an observer from each of the first two stages of Geology. Profs. Cotton and Clarke were re-elected Patrons.

Business over, Prof. Cotton spoke on "Geomorphology from the Point of View of the Geologist", and slides were shown of the Society's trip to Wanganui and the Department's trip to Onekaka. Supper was served.

Hey Diddle Diddle

The Premise controls the Conclusion:
The Disjunctive affirms
That the Diet of Worm
Is a Borbctomagic confusion.
