The forces of Weir hurled themselves at the combined might of Helen Lowry in battle at basketball and rugby. Weir emerged victorious in three out of four basketball games, but the rampaging forwards of the Lowry fifteen held us to a 21-all draw in the rugby, despite some willing rucking from Weir: at one stage all fifteen Weirmen were involved with one hapless girl in the ruck. Well, they called it a ruck.

Supper extras provided at the House Dance by three talented Maoris with a natural bent for close harmony. Wallace Wihongi, Nui McIntosh and Api Maynard' earned loud applause for their tasteful, smooth presentation of popular folk-songs.
