Tees' Virtues

The points raised by Helen and Debra were extremely important, and carried very serious implications. Unfortunately, the next speaker (incommon with all the spekers in favour of Tees) made no attempt to refute them. Instead, Gerard Winter said it was sick that a person who is elected President can be kicked out by a small [unclear: grn] of people who have clubbed together for this reason. "If we are going to let the communist elements of this university rule our existence, we will walk arm in arm with them to the grave". According to Gerard, Tees has been one the most sucessful, unbiased Presidents we have had for many a year. "He may not be concerned about Kampuchea, but he is concerned about you and me".

Apparently, Salient has been all year in an attempt to [unclear: under-i] obstruct both democracy and [unclear: lent]. This sounded very good [unclear: rom] the man who had tried very [unclear: et] Heather Worth to run for Presing that he didn't think Andrew [unclear: nan] for the job. If Heather would position to Tees, Carr-Greg told her back her all the way. That is the story he told the SGM, [unclear: eh] did manage however to cough things that Tees had done this year [unclear: J] organise capping week, he helped Revue to the Arts Festival, and [unclear: t] Tech facilities open to varsity
