Over the Stew Pot

A bright young Fresher on seeing a Maori Bunk for the first time was heard to remark — "Do we sleep on that floor thing"?.

The same bright young thing before her first night out on the tops; "It's going to be cold; Let’s all sleep in a bundle with me on the bottom".

There has been considerable discussion during the past year of the possibility of there being isolated Yeti communities ekeing out a meagre existance in the unexplored fastnesses of the Tararua mountains. One good keen man (the pride and joy of the Physics Department) was obviously very carried away by these tales, because he arrived in Alloway—Dickson one night (was he slightly intoxicated?) with a long length of drain pipe, which he swore was a Yeti that had wandered down from the vicinity of Alpha.
