Obituary
Great Loss to Sport
It is with deep regret that we record the passing of the Victoria University of Wellington Sports Council and Interim Sports Committee. The council was hom at a meeting of interested persons on Tuesday, April 21, 1959, and passed on at the executive meeting held on Thursday, July 9, 1959.
Council is survived by its illustrious parents; Mother Executive and its now famous Father Select Committee.
Its offspring the Interim Sports Committee apparently developed malignant galloping consumption contracted as a result of exposure (of draft regulations) to executive.
This disease being highly contagious was quickly transmitted to its parents and signs of rigor mortis are now evident in both bodies. Parent and Child will be privately interred.
Requiescat in File.
