SMAD. An Organ of Student Opinion. 1936. Volume 7. Number 6.

The Extrav

The Extrav.

With the pre-announcement of Cappicade 1936 in the last issue, "Smad" has been on the job to find out everything. Investigations confirm that all the controllers for the various Capping festivities have been appointed, and if students put their weight into it, Cappicade 1936, should be an even greater success than Tournament.

The Exrav. this year will comprise two revues, "Hell's Bells," and "Brave New Zealand." The first is aptly described as "a moralogue in one talk," coming from the pen of W. S. Gulban and A. Sillivert. In short it is anti-war propaganda in its most subtle form with the undertaking of a campaign for a cause dear to all womanhood. "Smad" has great pleasure in releasing the fact that His Insane Magnificence, Bunko Mustalinitlerassinini, Dictator of the Nozi State of Umbugonia will be none other than A. H. Scotney. it is with regret that we learn that no Aspirhinelanders will be an exhibit.

In "Brave New Zealand," Ron Meek has very ably satirised Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World," meantime entwining in the plot the leading figures on the New Zealand poltical stage. Boys, girls and Varsity students will be interested in the methods of creation in the year 372 A.F. (after Ford) while the mere mention of some of the characters gives sufficient promise of topical interest. The cast includes Mustapha, head of the local branch of the World Federation of Hatchery, Mickey, the Super-Savage, Mr. Didflopp, the soul of the Savages, Mr. Hash, the financial wizard, Mr. Simple, a vulgar gentleman, and, of course, Tweedledum and Tweedledee.

"Hell's Bells" is being produced by J. B. Aimers while the production of "Brave New Zealand" is in the hands of W. J. Mountjoy Jun.
