Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 18, No. 11. August 12, 1954

This year C.U.C has a fencing team which should, we think, come out very near the top at [unclear: Tonament] Team members are:

J. R. Matheson: [unclear: Chriatchrch] Swords Club foils champion 1952. Twice placed in provincial championships. C.U.C. Blue and Canterbury representative. Selected for final trials for the British Empire Games team and placed fifth in the foil.
N. M. West: Holder of both N.Z.U. and C.U.C Blues for fencing. Has represented both N.Z.U. and Canterbury Provincial foil champion 1952 C. U.C champion for a number of years Also selected for the final trials for the British Empire Games team.
D. Baughan: Captain of the Boys High School Fencing Club in 1953 and their club champion. Has done very well in provincials and against O.U. this year. Dave, a newcomer to N.Z.U. fencing, should do particularly well at Tournament.
C. M. Musgrave: Another new comer to N.Z.U fencing. Chris is a very strong fourth for the men's team. He is a particularly neat and orthodox fencer who will be hard to beat.
Dorothy Walker: Dorothy is a difficult left-hander who seems to demoralise her opponents The team has strong hopes for her at Tournament and she should acquit herself well
Penny Sage: Penny is a very neat and stylish fencer who should also do very well in the women's events.
