Capping Week
Sir.—May E. Furey may be a trifle disconcerted about the activities of students during Capping Week. But she is one of the few exceptions to the general public who look forward to Capping Week, just as much as the students themselves.—Yours, etc., A.F. May 10, 1961.
Sir.—May E. Furey is jumping to conclusions when she compares the liberties of students during Capping Week with those of her “so-called teddy boys.” Students do recognise an obligation to keep their activities within the limits of the law, which may be slightly relaxed for the occasion (as it is at Christmas and other festival occasions). Her “teddy boys.” I believe, have a completely opposite aim—to keep as far outside the law as possible. Leaders
of the Students’ Association issue warnings and take a very serious yiew of breaches of the allowed conduct. 1 enjoyed being thrown out of bed in the traditional spirit of Capping Week and I fee) sure that your correspondent would have, also—Yours, etc.. EX-STUDENT.
