Salient. The Newspaper of Victoria University College. Vol. 20, No. 3. April 12, 1956

[Introduction]

VUC played the role of perfect host to the NZU Easter Tournament, keeping for itself only the wooden spoon. Apart from sharing first place in the tennis, Victoria performed dismally, compiling a points total less than a third of those of Otago, the winning team, and Canterbury, runners-up.

Small consolation for winning the Spoon for the twelfth time in eighteen years was VUC's Drinking Horn victory. However, there are other things besides winning, and it was a successful tournament. Our congratulations to Otago, Tournament Shield winners. And to Wellington's weather, specially turned on for the occasion—Wellington isn't always windy after all.
