Otago Soaks- Sink it Quick!

Otago Soaks- Sink it Quick!

A practical demonstration in How To Drink Quick was given at the Drinking Horn, which was held at the Bowling Green (Pub! not old men's retreat).

Otago (the sots!) carried the day with a well-merited, but closely contested, win from Canterbury. Auckland and VUC were left well in the cactus, Victoria losing from Otago by a matter of three and one half handles in a six-man team. They tell me that OU put in a great deal of team practice, that no man in the team deigned to drink a 12oz. handle in less than 2 ¼ secs., and that the no-swallow method was adopted (woe is us!).

P.S.—Wellington publicans might take a lesson in co-operation from their Otago confreres.
