"The Case Against Pacifism."
The V.U.C. Society for the Discussion of Peace, War, and Civil Liberties hopes to hold shortly a panel discussion on this subject. As the constitution of the Society requires that no meeting be held without the views of both sides being represented, two speakers are required to defend the pacifist position. Will any students who feel they would care to do this see (or leave a note in the lack for) Mr. P. A. Mitchell. Questions will follow the discussion, and eveybody will have the chance to hoe in later.

Toll for the Brave.
A group of students have in hand the arranging of a simple ceremony at the grave in Sydney Street Cemetery of that famous anti-conscriptionist and free-speech fighter, the late Mr. Harry Holland, former leader of the New Zealand Labour Party. There will be a short address, and the help of those who would wish to assist with appropriate music is asked for. Would any students who feel they can help in this way leave a note c/o "Salient."
