Two new clubs formed at VUC

Two new clubs formed at VUC

Two new clubs were affiliated to the VUC Students' Association recently—a yacht club and a weight-training training club, the latter subject to its constitution being found to be in order.

Yachting has been admitted to NZU Tournaments on a trial basis, and has a fairly strong following in other colleges. Weightlifting has been done us part of the physical training programme supervised by Mr. Landreth in the Upper Gymnasium for some time, but the new club intends to encourage weight training among students as a supplement to other sports, supply, a hot water service operated by a solid fuel range, and electric lighting.

"In addition to its geological attractions, the Onekaka district appears to possess interesting geographic, zoological and botanical aspects. It is possible that the house might be suitable for use by reading groups from Arts Departments and as a base for college tramping activities.

"Anyone who wishes to make use of the house should communicate with me."
