SMAD. An Organ of Student Opinion. 1930. Volume 1. Number 2.

Prince Charming Contest

Prince Charming Contest.

We are pleased to announce the result of this enthralling contest. First place was gained by that paragon of good breeding, Prince Henry, who will be crowned King Henry IX., with due matrimonial honours, some time or other.

In compliance with the precedent set by the First Schedule of the Stud. Ass. Constitution, only the winner's voting will be published.

One Mickey Myer's Prize 10 votes

(As Law Students only are eligible, this was un-avoidably given to Henry.)

Sixty-three banned posters 2520 votes

(The Prince's brother in arms, My Lord Plank, contributed these.)

Nineteen pints College Spirit 850 votes

(Supplied in a hogshead marked J. L. MacD.)

Total 3380 votes

We regret the absence of cash votes. But lawyers are notoriously tight.

Bardell v. Pickwick is as nothing to "Smad" v. Executive. See "Spike."

New books include "How to Diet for a Degree." The author is Sheila Marshall.

For Brooks may come and Brooks may go, but We Brooks go on forever.

The Last Bi-Annual "Spike." Copies must eventually command fabulous prices. Secure yours early and avoid disappointment.

We acknowledge the N.U.S. Handbook. Al-though we agree with the Union in principle, we suggest that if there were fewer irons in the fire some of them might grow warm. At present we cannot see the fire for the irons.

* * *

Our heartiest congratulations to Anthea Hefford and to Audrey Blacklock on their being selected to represent Wellington in the "K" Cup. Also to Doug. Mackay on his play during Wellington's recent successful Rugby tour.

"The Misses McKee and Miss King, V.U.C. students, are on a geographical exploration of the Wairarapa." (Wairarapa daily.) Another example of metamorphosis.

* * *

Things that could not have been better express-ed:— A student when asked by Mr. W. J. Mountjoy, Jun., to address the Chair: "Mr. Chairman, you're an ass."

* * *

Why doesn't someone give that fellow Hefford a decent pipe. There are limits.

We beg to announce that, contrary to all rumours, Mr. A. Eaton Hurley is NOT engaged.. Courage, Girls.
