Last week, playing in their second match of the second round of the interclub competitions, the Varsity A grade team scored their first win of the season, defeating Technical 8-1. This places Varsity bottom equal with Technical in the competition. Technical's points were scored when they beat Varsity in the first round.

The star of the match was Tony Darroch He showed a welcome retur to form, winning all four of his games A paragraph about Tony was unfortunately cut out of last week's "Salient" owing to lack of space Tony was in the Wellington representative team last year, and was ranked third in Wellington. He was Selected a candidate for the New Zealand team to the World Championships However, this year his performances have been disappointing and he has lost to players he would have beaten lust year. By showing a return to his old form last week he has made prospects much brighter lor the remaning matches of the season.

Note.—A couple of weeks ago Tony made up for any bad luck he may have had by winning second prize in Tatts, a rare and outstanding performance for a university student!
