Salient: An organ of student opinion at Victoria University, Wellington. Vol. 23, No. 4. Wednesday, May 4, 1960

Since Last Time

Since Last Time

While Victoria won, again, the wooden spoon for Tournament sporting achievements at Easter, the Editor of "Salient" and Chief Reporter Steve O'Regan attended the meeting of the N.Z.U. Student Press Council. Outcome … editors in other centres did not like the sort of "Salient" being produced this year. The reason, probably, that "Salient" now has a higher circulation, more pages, and much more readable material than any other student paper in New Zealand.

Another outcome of the Press Council meeting was the election of Steve O'Regan to the esteemed position of President. That means "Salient" needs another Chief Reporter. Any takers?

Who has noticed that "Salient" is no longer "red"? So now we have removed the only thing that could possibly have indicated a leaning to the left.

Complaints have reached the Editor's ears that certain powerful people, Student Executive members and the like, are displeased with the amount of space "Salient" gives to student affairs. The point at issue … Tournament. There were growllast issue. We agree that events like Tournament are important, although several of the student papers in New Zealand give a ridiculous amount of space to these fixtures, but we can do only a certain amount of chasing after what is usually totally ungrammatical and uninteresting copy. After a certain point we just give up. But we have made an extra special effort this time and thanks to the co-operation of Surrey Kent, we give you a comprehensive preview of Extrav., and thanks to John Hercus Capping Week is fully covered.
