Honours also went to Victoria in the debating and in the drinking horn contest. This year the drinking contest was held at the Western Park in Tinakori Road. The local victory was largely the result of the splendid form of Ken Beard, who equalled the universities' drinking record. For the first time in 15 years Victoria won the Joynt Scroll inter-university debating contest. The team consisted of Ted Thomas, who was adjudged first speaker, and John Whitta, this year's victor in the Plunket Medal Oratory Contest Both speakers were chosen to represent the New Zealand Universities against the touring Australian team. J. Doogue, Warwick Dent and Hector McNeill also added to our successes by having a splendid win over the touring Australians.
