Golf

In this important first official N.Z.U. Tournament, V.U.C. will be represented by B. R. Boon. H. R. Carver, G. W. Blathwayt and G. Craighead. This is the strongest steam we have had since 1947 when V.U.C. romped home in the Tournament held that year on the Hutt golf links.

This year's team will be led by Harry Boon, on a three handicap. He is one of the most experienced golfers competing in the Tournament. He has played in the last two N.Z.U. golf tourneys and performed with distinction in both. Last September he won the under-21 Wellington title at Heretaunga from a strong field drawn from both islands.

Graham Craighead is yet another Hutt member, with an extensive knowledge of the course. He will undoubtedly prove a reliable No. 4. when he represents V.U.C. for the first time. He has had experience in local tournaments, and played well at Heretaunga last year in the Wellington under 21 championships. Like Blathwayt he has a dour temperament ideally suited to the strain of medal play, and his presence will add solidarity to the local team.
