We don't suggest they are lazy. In fact, the present incumbents have probably spent more time doing less than any of their predecessors. And if anyone can read between the very tight lines of the exec. minutes one will probably find they have pursued more irregular practices than any of their predecessors.

They have been full of good intentions and remarkably little action.

Take the question of the Cafeteria alone. This issue first came to a head in the very first week of term. It caused much heart rending and serious thinking from everybody. By Easter a report had been brought down, which turned out not to be quite the last word that had been expected.

A sub-committee was set up. It eventually met after Easter and after some members of the subcommittee had taken the law into their own hands and done some investigation. This refuted the exec's report and made certain recommendations. As these recommendations included bringing an outside caterer in to look at the situation, Salient felt it shouldn't report the matter till Miss Rosie had been told.

At the time of going to press Miss Rosie had still not been told.

There were reasons for this of course. Exec had so many things to catch up on that it was some time before it could consider the sub-committee's report. Then following an uninformed discussion the report was adopted.
