The mayor of this city is very fortunate in having a very helpful city council and a very efficient staff, and I want to thank them also. But I also want to thank the university students for their great help during the last two or three days [applause]. They've imparted a bit of hilarity and fun into the proceedings, which have added greatly to the enjoyment of the Dunedin public.
