V.C. v Wellington. Lost 4—12. A feeble exhibition, shooting shocking. Ulrich (Wellington) found time to notch six goals. Beere (2) and Oram (2) scored ours.

V.C. v Thorndon. Won 3—1. Scorers D. S. Smith, Strack and Bogle. Improved combination, Thorndon shooting erratic.

V.C. v Y.M.C.A. Won 8—1. A crushing victory. College forwards ably backed up by halves, showed astounding combination. Beere (4) and Strack Bros. (2 each), who were not as "slack" as The Post alleged, arranged the goals between them.

V.C. v Vivian. Won 5—3. College weak in the circle. College shots repeatedly found Vivian's goalkeeper, but G. Strack (2), D. S. Smith (2) and Castle caught him napping.

V.C. v Wesley. Won 4—2. Scoring arrangements in hands of Beere (3) and Smith (1). Game exciting but more scramble than hockey.

V.C. v United. Drawn 2—2. A splendid exhibition in which Champions were fully extended and honors rested with College. Smith and Oram scored. Smith also shot a third goal which was disallowed. Both he and Managhan played brilliantly.

V.C. v Karori. Won by default. An easy victory.

V.C. v Wellington. Won 3—2. Smith, Beere, and Strack scored. Official report "scrappy game."
