The Executive sat on Monday, 6th September, to a full and interesting agenda. The president was detained in town, so Laurie Starke, the vice, took the chair. Formal business, minutes, correspondence and accounts, were despatched at a fair speed, leaving the floor clear for a series of reports on the progress, usually good, of our various sub-committees.

First and of most interest was Miss Eichelbaum's report on the avenues being investigated by N.Z.U.S.A. to get student representation on the Senate. The president, Mr. J. B. C. Taylor, is handling this and has drawn up two alternative plans of campaign for approval by individual Execs.

The more permanent plan involves amendment of the Victoria College Act and will be introduced, along with other amendments, when the general revision of the Act is gone into after the war. For the duration several alternatives are available but are still in the confidential stages. A fuller report will be available later.

Various anomalies in both boarding and medical bursaries are also being investigated by N.Z.U.S.A. with a view to presenting a report and recommendations to the Government. Individual cases are being collected and forwarded by the various Execs.
