The Easter Tournament, held in Wellington this year, was the culminating point in the Club's activities, activities featuring keen and strenuous training on the part of most members. Training for some began in January of the New Year—others were forced to rely on Territorial routine for their training. In March, more joined in, but a keen half dozen or so were about all who attended the training nights. Tim Tracy's gymnasium was utilized for this purpose, and we would like to take this opportunity of thanking him for this, and for the expert way in which he trimmed us into shape.
A Thursday night, and Wellington College gymnasium was not packed to capacity. Nor, indeed, were there entries for all the weights. The programme, however, was supplemented by exhibition bouts from local gymnasiums, and a satisfying evening's entertainment was provided.
The result of everything was that G. Cuming (light-heavy), A. Doak (middle), B. Jacobson (welter), D. Cohen (light), D. Muir (feather), N. Perry (bantam), represented us at the inter-College Tournament. Congratulations to B. Jacobsen (N.Z. Blue also), D. Muir, and G. Cuming, who received Blues.
