Salient: Victoria University Students' Paper. Vol. 28, No. 6. 1965.

Flour Bombs

Flour Bombs

A second example is the Dominion's attitude to Procesh.

A warning was published in Salient that anyone throwing flour in Procesh was liable to be photographed.

No projectiles of any kind were thrown by students during Procesh.

However, students were subjected to mud, water, and plaster thrown from building sites and office buildings. One student was cornered by members of the public and soaked with water.

Even after Procesh itself, when the control Land-Rover was returning to the university, building workers threw wet cement at it.

The Dominion has in past years strongly attacked students when they have thrown objects at members of the public. The actions of the public this year were not reported. The behaviour of the students in Procesh rated one sentence which was deleted from the city edition.
