Capping Celebrations

Capping Celebrations.

We feel that the activities of the College representatives off the sports grounds at the Tournament were a complete fiasco, and for this the Executive must take a considerable portion of the blame. However, the Executive have an opportunity of redeeming themselves in the arrangement of Capping Celebrations. If live Capping functions go off successfully the Executive's past sins of omission may be forgotten, and eprhaps forgiven. The big events of Capping for all students are the Procession, the Extravaganza, and the Graduation Ceremony. We presume the ceremony is to be a public function, but we have heard only the vaguest rumours concerning the Extravaganza, which seems to be yet some distance from the rehearsal stage.

Finally we would exhort those engaged in the Capping Procession to set about arranging stunts immediately. The first stunt thought of is not alawys the best, and if those concerned do nothing more than discuss the procession with their fellows the ground will have been broken and the enthusiasm necessary to carry the programme through will be aroused. We must have enthusiasm, but it must be organised enthusiasm, and the sooner the Heremai Club set about organising that enthusiasm the better.
