Socially, of course, the team had a great lime. Another colourful incident was the Pooh-sticking, enjoyed by many throughout the Monday night and Tuesday morning, culminating in finals at 5 a.m. N.Z.U. Blues in Pooh-sticks were awarded to the entire athletic team, together with Anita Greig and Helen Aitken. Appeals are to be lodged in writing on large denomination bank notes, before the next meeting of the council, which will be in Auckland, over Easter, 1962. A super poohsticks competition (using logs of a special size) with initiating point on the Harbour Bridge will be run.
The return home was its usual shambles, saved from utter decrepitude by the huge quantities of food supplied by Arthur Howard, Lance Crawford and Brian Dawkins.
"I must confess I do not know what it is like to bear a child."— Dawkins.
