Aggie Week activities

OAC students have a week of activities planned from Monday, September 25 to Saturday, September 30. Aggie Week opens with a pub in The Wharf on Monday night and continues Tuesday morning with a pancake breakfast. The pan- cakes can be purchased at several locations in front of Johnston Hall and near McLaughlin Library. Following the theme of Buffalo Daze, there will be a weight judging contest, where con- testants will estimate the weight of a buffalo in the pen at the beef barn. During the afternoon the annual cow milking contest will be held. The Aggie banquet is planned for Wednesday evening and bus trips to the plowing match near Sebringville will take place on Thursday. Just a drop more — wine specialists and amateur winemakers flocked to the University for the Friday evening will include a dance to the Continuing Education Department's Symposium on winemaking. In the picture Keith Matthie, Major Hoople's Boarding House as well as a Ontario Grape Growers' Marketing Board, pours wine for Dr. R. V. Chudyk, of the Horticultural pub in the Wharf.

Professor Frederick Vaughan has recently had his book, The Political Philosophy of Giambattista Vico, published. The first book published on this subject, it is expected to be reviewed in the Soviet Union, Italy, France, the United States and Great Britain. A Neapolitan writer at the beginning of the 18th century, Vico was the first writer to express the cycle theory of history, and the first European who could be said to belong to the enlightenment, says Dr. Jules Wright of the Italian section of the Department of Languages. Dr. Vaughan's book is intended to be an introduction to Vico's book La Scienze Nuova. The book's primary purpose is to suggest that Vico's ambiguous and confusing manner of writing was deliberate, and that his major message cannot be extracted from Peter Brigg feeds the old press that is the sole working equipment of the Gryphon Press.
