On the grapevine

Someone forgetful

Three men's wristlet watches, two women's wristlet watches and one woman's ring are currently held at Enquiries in the Stout Building as property found in the University buildings.

A solid issue

N.Z. Statement has surpassed itself!! Six photos of King Kirk in an issue only 8 pages long.

Wall common

For the 237th time (approx.) Executive has decided something should be done about that cruddy end wall of the common common room (invitations to visit Hanoi in the summer time, etc.).

Yet again in the House Committee thingamebob and the Cultural Affairs Officer are to. "consult together".

And Petone?

Executive has decided against supporting greater autonomy for New Caledonia.

Originating with the International Affairs Committee, the proposal was defeated after an impassioned speech from Owen Gager.

If the motion was carried, declaimed Owie he would move similar motions for Westland and the Ross Dependency.

Never mind who the young lady was: she's in good hands—mine!

Wearing thin

Supporting a motion from Sue Kedgely that Executive memebers wear those ill-famed nightshirts at Easter Council. Owie suddenly did a revolution ist flip.

Anything to do with Dan Bradshaw threatening to move that our estmeeded and pressed Publications Officer be directed to wear a nightshirt for the rest of the term?

Grot paper

A plea has been recorded for soft grot paper The shiny non-absorbent variety installled at present, says the complainant. fulfills no other purpose than to aid the university's economy ... a campaign needed?

Unanimity

Quote of the week; from C.J. Roberston, appearing before Exec.

Speaking of the Student Union Management Committee, of which he has been member for four years: 'Every body reaches the same point of view, after a time', said and Chris.

Only once

Dan Bradshaw has once move abstained from supporting radical position on Exec. Then again Dass could be right once in the last 2000 years.
