CAPPING DAY.
SIR ROBERT STOTIT SEES'NO CAUSK FOR I'KICTION. The Chancellor of the Now Zealand University (Sir Robert Stent) considers that there aro no grounds to warrant tho talk of friction ' arising at tho forthcoming cupping ceremony of Victoria College students. The Senate lias dccidcd that Auckland degrees shall 1)0 conferred during next Thursday's ceremony in Wellington, and this' will take but a short lime. Sneaking to a Dominion' reporter last night, Sir Robert Stout said that it was not likelv that any Auckland students would bo'present at the capping ceremony in Wellington. 11c would .--imply read tho names of the successful students, a proceeding which will occupy about two minutes. He did not lliink the Wellington students were going to give any trouble over this. In any case the ceremony would be gone through. As set out in Ins reply to the Victoria College Council, he t-lill considers that if Auckland students do atleiul the capping ceremony, tho comradeship that exists among students will keep any friction out of tho proceedings.,
