Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria University, Wellington N.Z. Vol. 22, No. 4. April 27, 1959

[Introduction]

At the end of last year when Victoria's plan for an Arts festival was finally abandoned, Otago Societies Council set up an investigating committee to discuss the possibility of holding an Arts festival at O.U., says "Critic."

The investigating committee prepared a report which indicated that the scheme was practicable and feasible, suggesting that the festival be run in conjunction with the Winter Tournament.

This would coincide with the holding of the Drama and Debating events, although these would remain part of the tournament. The Bledisloe Medal for Public Oratory will be organised on similar lines.

The O.U. Film Society will arrange a one-night programme and a photographic competition will be held. Each university has been asked to participate. It was suggested that each university should send 20 entries to each of the two divisions of the competition: monochrome and colour slides. A general exhibition will be held in conjunction with the photographic competition.
