Salient: Victoria University Students' Paper. Vol. 29, No. 9. 1966.

[introduction]

Massey students have left the way open for discussion on the "capping magazine" crisis which recently threatened the stability of relations between New Zealand universities.

The controversy, which received considerable publicity in the New Zealand press, arose last term when Massey students sold their magazine in Auckland, Wellington, and in the northern part of the South Island.

At the 1965 Winter Council meeting of the New Zealand University Students' Association the area for the sale of "Masskerade" was defined as between Levin and Cambridge.

This year in both Auckland and Wellington 6000 copies of Masskerade was defined as Auckland students seized 300 copies of Masskerade from sellers and destroyed them.

At the annual general meeting of the Massey University Students' Association on Wednesday July 6, the president, Mr. A. Harrison, said Auckland students had paid Massey £37/10/- for the destroyed magazines.
