SMAD. An Organ of Student Opinion. 1937. Volume 8. Number 14.

[introduction]

Howling southerly or not, Saturday, the 21st August, will see a team of six men from each of the four Colleges running the 1937 University Cross-country Championship over a 6¼ mile course at Lyall Bay. The present holder of this championship is Auckland, but Victoria is expecting this year to better her two previous seconds, to run into first place, and bring the Dixon Trophy back to is birthplace.

With only one more game to be played, the Senior Rugby team's narrow loss against Poneke was rather unfortunate, but even if the team does not manage to win there is always the consolation that the excellent experience gained this year, playing against tougher teams, will prove invaluable next season. The two Junior teams had big wins over their opponents, and the Senior B's were successful in defeating Eastbourne.

The lower grade hockey teams show that there is no lack of spirit amongst our juniors, and it is a pity that they have no one able to coach them regularly in their competitive games.
