Sports Officer becomes TV "Star"
Sports Officer becomes TV "Star"
Dear David,
I must compliment peter Thrush for his little appearance on the TV 1 programme 'Seven Days', last Sunday 10.7.77. The programme you know doubt realise was based on the staff at the James Cook Hotel, No doubt his honorarium as Sports Officer is good pocket money to add to this income. Tell me did this amazingly invalid (campus-wise) person ever present a financial report on the Easter Tournament as requested by Gyles Beckford at an SRC sometime ago?
Being a mere first year peasant I don't get to see or hear of members of the Executive that often (those that remain, that is) hence the reason for asking the question. It's not that I'm out of touch with these amazingly secretive creatures, more to the point is that these honorarium, and therefore richer persons than myself, are out of touch with me and presumably a lot of other students. Actually I must figure out how to get hold of one of these honorariums on the quiet; the cash would come in handy right now!
Yours
Avid TV viewer.
