Sir,—With the approach of tins November University examinations 1A is an appropriate time to express •'■ne hope that a little more consideration be given to candidates requirements than was the case last year. 1 refer to the collapsible tables used concerning which complaints were voiced by candidates last year in no uncertain terms. The legs of the tables were in most cases very losely bolted together and there were frequent instances where paper had to be inserted under one leg oefore they would stand evenly on the floor. The result may well be imagined. Even the slight move-.-.u necessary when writing caused taloles :o shake and rock in a rr.a.-..-.er which effectively destroyed of proper concentration. .'•o.v. 1 have attended examina‘..0r... .several centres, but never before .-.ave 1 seen called upon to work adverse conditions and I ':or.:. y : : unreasonable to continue ■ Wanganui candidates in ...a.-.-.cr. ; t . UM thls matter w j|j re-e.-.e t.-.e attention it deserves.—l "CANDIDATE."
