Draft resistance advice from Monash (Melbourne) paper "Lot's Wife" quotes OZ magazine:
"Dhobi Rash: Do not rinse your underwear after it has been washed. The soap will induce a quite painful rash, especially "solvol". Change into clean rinsed underwear and attend examination before the rash disappears.
"Chinese Foot Rash. Wear one pair of socks for several weeks until feet become sore Remove socks and store in a safe place, preferably sealed. Shortly before examination wear these socks day and night for a few days until your feet begin to suppurate Wash feet and lake examination wearing clean socks."
Ignorance and bliss
Quote of the week: comes from a G.P! "I don't know what you've got, but it's the worst case of it I've ever seen."
Wealth
Interesting observation arising from the last demo at Parliament; some students who had demonstrated against Omega and walked back up Bolton Street were interested to see a large number of bursary-demonstrating students getting off the cable car. . . .
That's life
Odd, isn't it that on the day in the same room that students vigorously applauded an African who pleaded for aid for Biafra saying "Every cent would save a life," The student had just voted to pay the President of the Students' Association 40,000) cents a year, and to spend 1,843 cents on a telegram.
