[Introduction]
For the first time in its history the World University Service met in Dunedin at the end of August. In the past the conferences have been held in Christchurch, seat of the Dominion Committee. However, the national headquarters of W.U.S. have now been moved to O.U., with a Dunedin National Executive. The new chairman is Rev. J. N. Bates, Warden of Arana; Vice-chairman is John Scott; Secretary Mr. Luke Jenkins, Warden of Carrington; and Treasurer Prof. R. R. Nimmo.
The Conference was ably led, until the election of new officers, by the outgoing acting-chairman, Mr. Gordon Troup, of C.U.C., who together with other members of his committee, have had long associations with W.U.S. (formerly (I.S.S.) since its inception in New Zealand shortly after World War I.
