N.Z.U. Press Bureau To Report Tournament

At the 1938 Tournament each college will be represented for the first time by an official Press Representative whose Job it will be to report the doings of his college team and have them published in his college paper.

This inside information by a Tournament representative with full privilege, specially selected for his Journalistic ability is available to students through the work of the N.Z.U. Press Bureau, formed only last year, but already a vigorous body with plenty of plans ahead.

At the N.Z.U. Press Conference at Auckland during Easter (this will be the Annual Meeting of the Press Bureau) the progress of the Bureau in 1937-38 will come under review and new ideas will be discussed.

There is no need for competition among the publications of different colleges. Friendly rivalry, yes; but in matters that concern all students in New Zealand how much more can be done by co-operation! The Bureau has been formed to furnish means of co-operation. Not only can reports of V.Z.U. sporting events (hockey tournaments and the like) be handled by the Bureau through its local corresponding members, but blocks can be interchanged, items of general student news circulated (especially N.Z.U.S.A. affairs) and the different colleges kept in constant touch with one another. The Press Bureau could indeed manage the publication of all N.Z.U.S.A. material, for example, reports on the work of recent sub-committees.

The ultimate aim of the Bureau is the production of a New Zealand University publication. The nature of its contents, its size. Its price (If any), whether or not It should be the official organ of the N.Z.U.S.A., are the type of question which the Conference in Auckland will consider.

When you read news in "Canta." "The Critic." "Silent," "Craccum." headed "per N.Z.U. Press Bureau" and you find it interesting, remember that there is an organisation potentially significant, without which that news could not be resented to you.
