Shock Move
In A Surprise move, the university has announced its intention to open Rankine Brown Building.
It is understood that this decision has been prompted by recent growth in the student roll.
The opening will take place on July 5, and two honorary degrees will be conferred in the library following the opening.
Mr. H. G. Miller, until 1965 head librarian, will receive one.
Mr. Miller gave much of his life to serving the Victoria library, and was responsible for finally controlling the provision of new facilities which culminated in the shift to Rankine Brown build-ing last year.
The second degree will be conferred on the Rt. Hon. K. J. Holyoake, who is MP for Pahiatua.
Mr. Holyoake at present holds the post of Prime Minister in the National Government.
