Salient. Official Newspaper of the Victoria University Students' Association. Vol 44 No. 15. July 13 1981

[Introduction]

Bank of New Zealand symbol

Those answers to the meaning of the logo components have been coming in in dribs and drabs, but as of yet no one has come up with a correct answer. To heighten interest and make it slightly easier we've increased the prize to two free ball tickets and twelve billets of your choice; and here's the clue. It's all in dark blue but the stars are gold. Figured it out yet? Get your answers into Studass soon, first correct envelope opened wins and the judges decision will be final. (Note: this competition is not open to relatives of any tournament controllers; and especially not to Steve Tew's flatmates).

We've had feedback from some of the other campuses, and it looks as if we should have about 930 competitors at tournament. Of these, about 500 will need billets (less the 12 going to the competition winner).

This is where you help! If you or your flat can take a couple of billets, we want to know you. If you're a member of one of the competing clubs, see your club's tournament controller and add your name to their list. If you're just an unattached student who's going to be in Wellington during tournament (August 23 to 27) and can take a billet (or two or three or four...) - call into Studass and add your name to the list on the counter. Unfortunately, no hostel accommodation is available during tournament so student help will be appreciated.

We've made some progress in the organisation area and have engaged the help of:
  • Social Controller A. Underwood.
  • Ball Organisers A. Llwelyn, M. Carr-Gregg.
  • Transport Co-ordinator and Billetting Co-ordinator are as yet unfilled; please volunteer someone.
  • Degenerate Events Organiser A. Seerup.

However we still need people to help in some areas so don't hesitate to leave your name at Studass.

For those who intend competing for Victoria, contact your club's tournament controller. Eligibility forms will be distributed in the next two weeks and must be returned by 1 August. Competition is fierce for some Vic teams, so all looks well to us winning tournament this year.

Our-publicity posters are currently at the printers and should be up and around campuses by the middle of this week. Demand for flat walls, etc should be high - so be in quick for your copy. Our sponsors won't mind, in fact they'll enjoy the publicity.
