Thanks.

On behalf of the Executive of the Students' Association and of the Tournament Committees, it is my privilege to express our thanks to the many friends of the College who so willingly came to our assistance prior to and during Tournament.

The members of the College Council, the Teaching Staff, and well-wishers of the College assisted us very materially by providing billets, loaning us their cars, giving donations, and encouragng our teams by attending the various social functions and sporting events.

We must especially thank all those kind people who offered and provided billets. So generous was the response to our appeal that in one day, only three days before Tournament, when it was heard that Otago was sending representation, forty billets were obtained. It was not possible to avail ourselves of all these, but none the less we greatly appreciate the offers.

In the matter of transport, too, both from the boats and trains to the billets and for the motor drive on Easter Sunday, we are very grateful for the generous way car-owners came forward and permitted us to use their cars for the entertainment of our guests.

I should also like to thank very sincerely each and every member of the Victoria College Tournament Committee and those other students and helpers who assisted on the various committees so that the whole Tournament went off so smoothly and successfully.
