John Crcgan, 1.PU Deputy President, was highly critical of Mr, Metealfe's stance While he stressed that the Poly Union did not begrudge the extra expenditure. it was, he felt, most disappointing to encounter such stringent opposition to the Poly's traditionally strong sporting activities.

A mils% demonstration against the fur trade took place last s.riurday. Sixty marchers met outside the ( 'urn Exchange at 1.30 and many more joined in the osu hour long demo. The demonstrators came from Leeds and Huddersfield Animal Aid and Rights groups. According to these groups, more than 300.000 animals are killed fur fur every year. meaning that 24 species are now extinct. Some of these they claim are factory farmed animals, but over 40 million arc wild animals usually caught in primitive traps. About three-quarters of those trapped are animals such as dog, cats and ducks, and are therefore, unsuitable for the fur trade. These traps arc banned in the UK. but the Animal Rights groups say that by importing pelts caught in them, the fur trade is is condoning their use. 'The demonstrators distributed leaflets describing the often horrific methods used to kill the animals with out damaging their pelt: red hot pokers may he inserted into animals orifices, or they may be made to abort since the embryo's fur is that much softer.

This is an important occasion, and for those of you short of time and money to travel to London, you need only find your way to the Warehouse, that is. if you can see through the fog.

Not that this caused the morale to flag. For the pros- pect of six days skiing on an abundance of fresh snow ANNUAL caused much excitement and considerable merriment at the inspection of the bars that evening. After a free day on Sunday and a 'fun' relay race on Monday, the racers arrived at the course at 9.30 a.m. on Tuesday for the first race; the team special slalom.
