King Of Cocos Makes An Appeal

CANBERRA ICP)-The king of Cocos island. John Clunies Ross, has appealed to the Queen to med- iate in a current dispute between himself and the Australian govern- mcni.

He wants the return of some of the powers which he says have been filched from him since nom- inal sovereignty over the island was transferred from Great Brit- ain to Australia about three years

ago.

Today this atoll is of growing im- portance to the Commonwealth as an air base between Australia and South Africa.

FLED REBELLION

But the 1.200 brown -skinned McGregors. McTavishcs, McLeods. and filcDougalls who live on it still think of Clunies Ross as their "king." as their forefathers did for 127 years. when the atoll was only an unoticed spot on the map.

The first John Clunies Ross, whose family had fled from Sept- land to Java after the failure of the Stuart Rebellion. found the atoll uninhabited in 1825. and de- cided that it was the haven he had always wanted.

But he had competition from an- other European. an Englishman named Alexander Hare. who got in first and set up his own kingdom. complete with 120 Oriental wives.

Most of the wives deserted when Ross arrived with a contingent of Scots settlers. and helped to found the present settlement. Rare left

SOCIAL ounces ,3.

A most delightful and practical program has been initiated on thel campus for the students of Junior and Senior years. It was introduc- ed by Father George MacDonald, as a cultural program. the aim bemg I0 help train people in the 500181 graces by deepening their knowledge of social customes and the procedures of social etiquette. Dr. Joseph Maclifillan and Mrs. MacMillan have benevolently of- fered to conduct lectures of sociall etiquette. There is to be one period devoted each week to instruction while the rest of the week, as one person so Iuccinctly said. will be devoted to the practice of such enlightenment.

Dr. liiacivlillan gave the first lecture last week. After stating the PUl'P0se and scope of the program, he went on to point out general manners and qualities which are a part of a true gentleman. He considered the different aspects of what he term ”a smart appear- ance". and maintained that man- ners are the common sense expres- sion of a healthy social atti- tude. To those who, at first men- tion of the term "etiquette", con- ger up imaginings of pompous im- plications. Dr. Joe clearly brought out the nature of manners which consist, he said- merely in govern- ing oneself naturally and in a way most appropriate to the oc- casion. Mrs. MacMillan conducted the lecture this week and directed her talk to the Co-eds. She stressed the aspect and principles -of fas- hion tn the life of a college girl. It is hoped that these two Interesting lecturers will continue to give instruction every week for the benefit of the students. who express their gratitude for the time and effort which has been no graciously extended.

BED AND WHITE

The usual stir of anticipation which comes about when the dis- tribution of Red and White across the campus is announced. was experienced here recently when the Winter edition of the colege magazine was realeased. It was a well-balanced issue. considering the late data at which the mater- ial was compiled. As we have seen from past experience, the Winter issue is usually of a condensed content which makes it email in comparison to the other issues. But this year the so-called "Sand- wich issue" did not take a back seat to the others as far as quan- tity and quatlity were concern-
