Bertie Rides Again!

Several executive members objected to a Salient reporter tape recording their last meeting.

The tape recorder was quietly running when Mr. Bertram objected. He moved a motion that Exec move into committee. Chairman Tom Robins refused to accept the motion. His ruling was disputed. Mr. Bertram said that the tape recorder recorded a person's tone of voice. His tone of voice at that moment was sternly disapproving.

Tom Robins replied that it had been done before and that there was no reason whatsoever to go into committee. The chairman's ruling was not upheld.

During the discussion of the original motion there were several comments such as "would you like a TV camera. Tim?". "Its indecent". "It is high time that the vice-president stopped treating matters so flippantly".

After protracted discussion the motion was lost.
