Salient: An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 12, No. 1, February 23rd, 1949.

[Introduction]

I don't suppose that this year will be any different from any other year, and all things being equal, all students will be again given good advice from their lecturers during the first week of term. For those who haven't been through it before, it is mainly this—that if you wish to have a successful year you will start work straight away. There will be a few who will take this advice, still a few more who will start off with good intentions, and the majority who will look around for something more to do in their spare time.

However, for all of you we wish to point out that there are many Sports Clubs who will welcome you with open arms.

For those who are really energetic, the basketball starts in a few weeks, and the Athletic Club is already "running" on Kelburn Park. If you want to be in the swim and can stand the Wellington weather, there are the Thorndon baths, water polo and women are wanted. For those who want to keep really fit and like to take their time doing it—take a week-end jaunt into the hills with the Tramping Club. In fact there are sports for all types. Even if you are not particularly energetic you are sure to be able to find something to your taste. So in the meantime watch the Notice Board, playmates, for time and place.
