NOTHING IN PLATO."
WE*ST AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITY CLASSICS OBJECTED TO. By Telegraph.— Press Association.— Copyright. PERTH, 26th January. In the Legislative Assembly Mr. Underwood, a Labour member, in discussing the University Bill, condemned the spending of money in teaching the classics and music. They did not want Latin, and there was nothing in Plato. University men were always in the rear, and it was easier for a porcupine to go backwards through a canvas hose than for a university man to go iuto politics. BILL READ A THIRD TIME. (Received January 27, 9.25 a.m.) PERTH, This Day. The University Bill has been read a third time.
