Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 1, No. 21 October 5, 1938
Darling,
The most exciting news—I'm going to be a Journalist. All the lovely little bits of gossip that float about this Grand Old Alma Mater are going to be whispered in my little ear and I'll tell you Everything that I hear about Everyone; and I'm going to spy with my little eye and find red hot news. ( I don't really mean Red, darling.) You know this University has an awful lot of nasty people among the students—communists and that. Of course I never mix with them because one can't be too careful, can one? and they say even the professors are dangerous. I don't take any night lectures, though, so I don't really know about that. I asked somebody what a Communist looked like, but he Just turned round and sort of laughed at me.
