Sir,—I think that all you people who want to stick to the name Victoria need your heads read. Who was Victoria, anyway? A tyrant with a capacity for world shattering remarks like "We are not, etc." Who wants a good University to hide under a name like hers? (Just because the crown is holy, holy, holy . . .)

Hear those remarks at Tournament about the touching conservatism and royalism in Wellington students? Incidentally, who wants to shout Vio. at Tournament? It's a hard, difficult sound to shout and it needs masses of glottal stops and all that. I personally shall be shouting Wu-Wu-Wu and having the time of my life.

I think it is very tactless of your editorial comment to refer to the whims and egos of petty businessmen [when your executive is crawling: around the city asking for substantial donations from these Same petty businessmen to furnish the new Student Building].

Wellington University students wake up and move with the times!
