Marie T. Blanc The follow ing interview is the result o f the dou bts a n d questions which I, as a reader, h ad w an ted to present to the D aily for a long time. A I Nerenberg is a news ed ito r fo r the D aily. Richard Flint is the Daily'.v editor-in-chief. Our names appear here rather than those o f the papers itr work or write for because none o f us fell, in all fairness, that we cou ld represent the whole s ta ff o f either the M cG ill D aily o r the M cG ill T rib u n e.

BLANC: In 1981, the M cG ill S tu den ts’ S ociety condu cted a referendum to ask students whether they were willing to su pport DA IL Y autonom y. What led to it, originally? F L IN T : W ell, th a t goes b ack a long w ay. T h e b asic p rin c ip le th a t led to it is th a t g o v ern m e n t s h o u ld n ’t c o n tro l new s­ p ap e rs.

N E R E N B E R G : In 1980, it g o t d o w n to a c irc u la tio n o f a b o u t 8,000. F L IN T : J u s t h a lf o f w h at it is now .

H A N D B O O K p u t out by the Students’ Society, yo u wrote: "No restrictions prevent us fr o m digging underneath the surface to discover the real m otivations o f those whose decisions affect us all. ” Does that mean that before the achieve­ m ent o f au tonom y the S tu den ts’ Society tried to control DA IL Y content? F L IN T : O h yes. T h ere w ere co n tin u a l a tte m p ts to c o n tro l c o n te n t.

The Vice-President o f Student Services stated that charges o f posses­ sion an d /or sale o f a controlled sub­ stance could result, but that no charges have yet been laid because, "We don’t know if they’ve hidden marijuana or goldenrod.”
