Tournament Prospects
Tournament Prospects
As far as Tournament is concerned, Victoria should field its strongest athletic team ever. In fact there is a distinct possibility of getting out of a fourth place rut (but whether into third or fifth place we can't say).
Those who could well take N.Z.U. titles are: John Hawkes (hurdles), Ian McAusland, Dave Beauchamp (880 yards and mile), Laurie Croxon (long jump), P. Von Dadelzen (high jump), Mary Holderness (field events) and Janet Davies (hurdles and long jump). But many others in the Team must be conceded a good chance in their events—they know who they are!
The Tournament Athletics Meeting is being held at the Basin Reserve on April 16, so don't forget to turn out and cheer your team to ... perhaps even victory?
