Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 2, No. 13 July 5, 1939

Here and There

Here and There

Playing brilliant football for the Hawkes' Bay Representatives is Phil Reid, V.U.C. five-eighth of 1936. He will be a strong contender for next year's All Black side. Remember the brilliant game he played for the Bay against Wellington last year?

In the Badminton world, Eric Roussel has gained fresh honours. This time it is the N.Z. Team to tour Australia.

Another ex-Varsity man has also gone "Onward and Upward"—C. E. Malfroy whose defeat of H. Lee ranked eighth in English Tennis is particularly meritorious.

C. G. "Fat" Rae has been playing brilliant football this year behind the Senior scrum. Repetition of his sterling displays against Hutt and Petone will make him a strong contender for a place in this year's rep. side.

Malc. Mason, who fractured a rib while playing for the Social team, is up and about again. The "Socialists" will miss his powerful voice and "shrewd" tactics.

A. R. Gibson: Ballerina and star crooner of John Carrad's shows. "Gibby" has recently transferred to Palmerston North. A Weir Committee-man and organiser of its social team, he took a prominent part in the social side of University life. His re-union with Brian Turnbull in Palmerston North should prove a memorable affair.

J. P. Eastwood, N.Z.U. Rugby three-quarter and 100 and 440 yards champion has returned to Masterton to join his brother K. E. (N.Z.U. 440 Champion 1929) in his accountancy business. A fine track man and a brilliant footballer Eastwood was recently described as "Rugby Glamour Man No. 1." If Jim takes his football seriously, his chances of going to Africa must be extraordinarily good. Best of luck anyhow, Jim.

Last year's Senior B lock. "Tiny" Armour is playing good football for the Wairarapa Rep. side this season. Congratulations, Alex.
