John Eade International Affairs

Nominated: R. E. Booth.

Seconded: A. W. Easton, A. L. Vasan.

Born and educated in India. Settled in N.Z. in 1966 for his university education. He is a third year Science student planning to do Honours next year.

A member of the Drama Club and the newly-formed Skin Diving Club and interested in soccer, tennis and skiing when time and money permit!

John is standing because having lived overseas for most of his life he feels that he can give some sympathetic understanding to the problems facing Asian students in N.Z. He would work for a sounder attitude towards international affairs based more on facts, however unpalatable, rather than to identify ourselves ad lib with student trends overseas and he would try to present a more realistic appraisal of overseas attitudes in student and Government politics.

On the local scene: support any proposals for increased staff salaries to maintaining teaching standards and when economically realistic increase pressure for higher bursaries and Student Association extensions.
