Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 13, No. 6. April 13, 1950

Bringing Out the Black — Mourning becomes Victoria

Bringing Out the Black

Mourning becomes Victoria

When the presses were about to roll on "Salient" issue six, came the following dismal telegram from "Salient's" despondent Special Correspondents on the rain soaked Christchurch front:

"Spoon Again Easily But Won Breaststroke Dowse Discus Lissienko Double Sculls. . . ."

Vic was about to bring back from Easter Tournament, 1950, the Wooden Spoon to its old resting place.

When our reporters have had time to drag home from the South after the defeat and pound the typewriters, the full story (a little worn and threadbare in the telling by now) will be printed in "Salient."

The post mortem will be held in issue seven next week. Meanwhile for a possible explanation, see the article "Runner Mortis" on page four of this Issue.
