PROTEST AT RIVAL
Capping Book Sales (N Z Press Association) AUCKLAND, April 16. An Auckland City Council decision tonight to allow Massey University students to sell their capping book in Auckland on Thursday, drew criticism from the Auckland University Students' Association Capping Controller (Mr R. S. Rudman). Mr Rudman said the students considered it a gross injustice that the city traffic committee, which made the decision, should allow Aucklanders to be cajoled into financing capping celebrations 300 miles away in Palmerston North, to the detriment of the local capping week. The Auckland student charity collections of $7OOO made up one-third of the income of the Community Chest in 1967, he said. All the activities of Capping Week were financed from the sale of the Capping Magazine.
