Mr. M a c k a y said that politicians in
the present position of a f f a i r s tended
to become gangsters. Cunning w a s at
a premium.
Under these conditions
there w a s little opportunity to develop
a proper political education in A u s tralia.
Mr. M a c k a y also referred to the paucity of result at the P r e m i e r s ' C o n f e r ence.

Mr. M a c k a y pointed out that he w a s

T h e president of the Elvening Students' As.soclation ( M r . H . I I . W i e d e r sehn) asked those present not to f o r g e t

STUDENT AND
CHRISTIANITY
Dr. Wriffht Speaks
T h e first address of the y e a r to the
Student
Christian
Movement
was
g i v e n in the Union Hall, on T h u r s d a y ,
Mai'ch 15, by Dr. W r i g h t , of Camden
College.
Doubt and Faith
Taking
for
his i subject
"The
Student
and
Chri>stlanity,"
the
speaker
I>ointed
out
that
there
were
few
phases
of
life
into
which doubt never entered, religious
faith especially being one big conflict.
"Doubt
is
inseparable
from
faith, and the fight of faith means
fighting to keep faith. Faith has its
doubts w h i l e doubt also has Its f a i t h s . "
T h e y o u n g man w h o discovers that
he can think f o r himself is soon assailed by conjectures as to the nature
of the univer.se. Is the Supreme B e i n g
a God of L o v e ? — I s H e a m a l i g n a n t
devil, or is H e supremely Indifferent to
e v e r y t h i n g that is g o i n g on? H e will
find It hard at first to a n s w e r any of
these questions In the a f f i r m a t i v e since
he can p r o v e nothing b y scientific
methods or by g o i n g to authority.
God of Love
T h e only w a y to solve his doubts Is
f o r him to g o to the " o n e w h o knows,"
Jesus C h r i s t — t h e
one standard
of
faith. If he does this he w i l l find that
the true God is a God of L o v e .
T l i e student must reall.se that Christianity is no n a r r o w faith, it covers all
demands, and with the S p i r i t of God at
the back of all things there is no reason to be a f r a i d of our
troubles.
Science has not sounded the death
knell of religion.
T h e di.seoveries in
the H e a v e n s have enriched our conception of God. W o must feel t o - d a y
that H e is g r e a t e r than those people
believed who w e r e unable to explore the
H e a v e n s except with the naked eye.
Loyalty to Faith
In conclu.sion, Dr. W r i g l f t urged that
theory and discussion should not be
the end of religion.
A positive a t t i tude and a f o r w a r d v i e w should be
adopted and l o y a l t y to f a i t h should be

The

Mr.

urged all the freshers to pull their

f u n c l i o n s of U n i v e r s i t y life. H e stressed the importance of the f e w y e a r s

pomting out that they f o r m e d one of
the most profitable periods of his l i f e ;
especially on the field of sport, he said,

Interesting Comparisons.
P s y c h o l o g i c a l tests and experlment.s.
Dr. M a r t i n avers, show certain d i f f e r ences in the mental tendencies of mon
and w o m e n .
H e a g r e e s w i t h Dr. Burt that thereare no clear differences of general intelligence.
But. generally speaking, men are less

and
conscientious
than
women.

not better adapted f o r o f f i c e - w o r k than

( T h e man w h o laments that

evidence that w o m a n has transgressed
the bounds of her natural abilities in
such w o r k . )
Colour-Blindness.

of males are partially colour-blind and
J per cent, totally so, the percentage
of f e m a l e s Is much smaller.
By tests with the a l g o m e t e r (an instrument f o r measuring sensibility to
pain)
Dr. M a r t i n
has found
that
women register sense of pain m o r e
f-a.'iiiy than men. But he knows of no
test.s that have been made to measure
capacity to endure pain.

Sports Fee.
In your issue of the l2tb of
March there appeared on the front
page an article headed
"General
Sports Fee," which stated that the Introduction of a sports fee for all
undergraduates, exccpt evening students, is Imminent, n t e reasons urged
by the S.U.S.U. for the Justification of
this policy, if they have no other redeeming feature, at least imve the merit
of being stated with entire Ingenuousness. Let me quote from the article
itself:
"The case for the Sports Union Is
based mainly on the consistent loss
that has been experienced over the last
ten years, when, except for one year,
the Union lost £150 per annum. lit the
odd year funds were raised by a fete.
In consequence, the Union is facing
banki-uptcy." And. as an afterthought,
the writer adds: "It is thought also that
sport should be an essential part of
general 'Varsity life." It is patent to
the most superficial ob-server that tlie
Sports Union has no great care for the
welfare of the student body, but is trying to force the enactment of this proposal as a palliative for its unfinancial
condition. Might I suggest that the
present plight of the Sports Union may
conceivably be due to incapacity on tlie
parts of its administrators?
Again the writer says:
"Naturally
the Union has for some time considered
possible expedients, but It was considered hai'dly fair to raise the subscription (now £2/2/- per annum), especially in these hard times. An alternative
was the introduction of a general sports
fee (not, of course, of £2/2/-)."
I
should like to point out to tho.se who
favour this proposal that, in imposing a
general sports fee, they would be coercing men and women who, for various
reasons, have remained outside the
Union, to repair its now tottering
finances. Admittedly, to raise the fee
seems severe, "especially in these hard
times," but it is infinitely more just
than to impose a fee arbitrarily on
every student, particularly in view of
the fact that many of the students at
present outside the Union, are otitside I Does anything ever happen in the

Wonderful Hospitality
JAPS.' FINE FOOTBALL
The Australian Universities' Rugby Union team,
which toured J a p a n in the long vacation, returned home
last Thursday. A l l the members were enthusiastic over
the hospitality accorded to them, and the excellent football which their opponents produced. They were convinced that with greater height and weight the Japanese
could successfully challenge any country in the world.
J a p a n wants to pay us a visit and asks for a return visit
in 1935 or 1936.

MOSMAN HELD TO '
DRAW
Hellmrkh's Fine Knock
CONSISTENT SCORING
O n the second day of the match v. University, Mosman, the competition leaders, carried their score from
6-331 to 351 before closing. 'Varsity, faced with an impossible task, put u p a fine performance to score 240 for
nine wickets in an afternoon's play. Hellmrich was the
m a i n contributor, his 90 being m a d e in his best style,
while he received able assistance from M c M i l l a n a n d
Chapman.
