Hui Marae
As most activities arranged by the Club received very poor support from its members, the Committee decided to a certain extent to alter the policy of the Club.
Assistance has been given to the Haeremai Club in running their dances and in procuring costumes for the Capping procession, etc. The Committee intends that the activities of the Club should continue along these lines instead of organising separate functions.
A strong effort is being made by the Club to improve the Common Room, and the Committee would be grateful for the co-operation of all members in this work, as it is most discouraging to find that all flowers, etc., are stolen as soon as they are put in the room.
In the last issue of "Smad" some contributor who apparently (and justly) was ashamed to sign it, wrote a letter criticising the Club. There is only one sentence in it that is worth even noticing. They suggest that the Committee should get in touch with other similar Clubs.
This has long ago been-done, but it was found that no other College has a Club with purely social aims. In the other centres the Women's Clubs carry out Social Service and Dramatic activities, etc., as at various Colleges separate Clubs for these purposes do not exist.
