Student Union Ixecutive in upholding the necessary protocol which yoes' along with such visits. Student Union President, :eorge McGibbon, appeared satisfied for his opening tatenents to the general assembly, he felt quite at one at the , A number of things might account for that, I ,uppose. Specifically I would suggest'IWO which ppeared obviously related: (1) Mr. McGibbon' is now etting used to his position as president,-and 2) his highly favourable remarks concerning Dr. eincke's credentials, abilities and character were idhered to by a very limited crowd. A group comprised lainly of. the same partisan supporters who continue :0 care to all smdent assemblies. Yet, one would do as well to leave that neither 1ere nor there. Let me first make a few caments on )r. Meincke's address and then buzz off, oh. h 3,.

I do wish we could get over these own- We have to be a reSPOHSj-ble resource aid for the rigid formalities scneone feels we must adhere to in these meetings, however. really, when you are ‘dealing with an assembly of 35 to 40 people, why the hell do we need to address the others present through a microphone? It is my contention that things would becaie a hell of a lot freer in these- assemblies of ours if all the formal was cut a to a minim' um. .. g 3:: 1 . I realize that order must be held! easy does it on that argument O.K. Hopefully we're adaptable enough to speak out respectfulcf the others present.
