Eulogy

Yes "Operation Indonesia" certainly was a good show. It says much for the intelligence of students and watersiders that they are able to reach a conclusion at least a week before the United Nations—and furthermore, they did it without facts.

Where U.N. needed all the trappings of experts and their opinions, students and watersiders only needed their heads!. Wouldn't it! Of course, such of you as take-mathematics will be able to evaluate the chances of a correct judgment to be in the vicinity of 50 per cent. And, of course, U.N. could always be wrong.

The chief trouble with this Operation Indonesia business was that it set n precedent. Citizens began to look forward to Victoria's little bouts of recreation. Children began to tick off the days on the calendar before the next procession. And then after the successful capping procesh. of 48 it was too much to expect that the students could wait a whole year before their next procession.
