The Canterbury University College Students Association decided last year that proceeds of Capping activities should be given for charitable purposes. Asking for an allocation of funds from Capping profits for a film projector for the CUC Engineering Society. Mr. G. D. Macaulay told the Executive "I think theres' a lot of ill-feeling in the University about the Drama Society getting a grant of £300 from Capping funds for the production of "King Lear," especially as I understand that £260 is being spent on publicity.
