The spell that grounds were given as a result of postponement of games last Saturday week resulted in their being in excellent trim last week. VUC teams did moderately well, winning four games and losing two.
- 1A v Huia—won 3-2.
- 1B v. Wellington—lost 1-4.
- 2A v. Tech. O.B.—won 4-2.
- 2B v. Tr. Coll.—won 7-4.
- 3A v. Indians—won 3-2:
- 3B v. Huia—lost 2-3.
There were times when the 1A forwards felt the absence of Win Smiler in their game against Huia. John Phillips is gradually getting to know the men about him and with Win back in the ranks, a good game against Karori is expected this week. Ken Kiddle has been playing some fine defence shots lately, while Gil Johnstone is eliminating his habit of hanging on too long to the ball. Brian Bary made some fine saves when Huia started pelleting our goal.
