Decision on Extrav Profits
Decision on Extrav Profits
Fifty Per Cent of Extrav '64 profits will be put towards "objets d'art" for the SUB. This was decided at the last SGM despite fierce opposition.
A motion put forward by David Baird. 1964 Capping Controller tried to rescind Exec's decision on this matter. Many students felt that the money could be put to better purposes.
After a prolonged and heated debate a vote was taken. But it was so close that three divisions had to be called. Finally, Tom Robins used his casting vote in favour of the status quo and defeated the motion.
