The Easier Tournament
The Easier Tournament
On Wednesday, 5th April, the Victoria College contingent for Tournament will leave Wellington for Dunedin.
Can we repeat our successes of 1938? It was at Auckland last Easter that our representatives, by sterling endeavour in Tennis, Rowing, Basketball and Shooting, supplemented by some points for Athletics and Boxing but, unfortunately, none for Swimming, realised our highest hopes and brought the Tournament Shield back to Victoria for the first time since 1929.
Already three of the seven teams for Dunedin have been chosen. Each one compares favourably with the team that represented V.U.G. in 1938. In a later issue we will publish a review of Tournament prospects generally, based on reports and information received from the other Colleges and on our own knowledge of the calibre of the men and women representatives of V.U.C.
