Retrospect

With this number, the twenty-first issue of "Salient," we ring down the curtain on commentaries and criticism on sport at V.U.C. for the year. It has been an interesting year, but one fact is plain: despite the gratifying results at Tournament, the general standard of sport here is no higher than it has been in immediate past years. It is, perhaps, possibly lower, for a study of the performances and achievements of the lower grade teams of the four largest clubs—Cricket, Tennis, Rugby and Hockey—reveals the undeniable fact that results were very poor. Even if, in these clubs and in the other sports clubs at V.U.C. there was lustre in the performances of one or two teams and some splendid individual effort, it is the general standard that is important, and next year we must try to raise it.
