Salient: Victoria University Students' Paper. Vol. 25. No. 13. 1962

[introduction]

Twice during the year vocal students have been after the blood of the Students' Executive. Having tasted that blood the second time round, they are apparently content to sit quiet for some time. For the first time in 14 years, the Exec. was evicted.

Led by a group of student anarchists, a Special General Meeting of the Students' Association was called first week back after the long vacation. The issue was the increased fees.

At the meeting Anarchist trouble-shooter William Dwyer, moving the no-confidence motion, charged that Exec, had failed to protect student interests. He was also troubled that the President had written the "Dominion" suggesting that certain students "should be lined up against a wall and shot".
