[University Yacht Club]

sailboat

The University Yacht Club held a very successful regatta at Oriental Bay last term. The winners were five gentlemen aboard a floating beer-garden, one of whom pushed, the others engaged in sabotage of other craft. The novelty prize went to two intrepid types upon a double bass, courtesy the Nutsional Orchestra. Other entries were a floating grot, a seagoing pedal car, and an ingenious contrivance of paddle wheels from the Zoology department that proved conclusively that zoologists should stick to zoology. The picture above is not of one of the entries—it shows the type of boat that the Yacht Club is hoping to raise funds for to allow non boat-owners to share in the thrills of sailing.
