Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 17, No. 14. July 22, 1953

In June the inaugural meeting of the V.U.C. Golf Club was held and the following officers were elected:—
  • Club Captain: K. M. Phillips.
  • Deputy Club Captain: B. R. Boon.
  • Secretary-Treasurer: J. T. Kitt.
  • Committee: Officers plus T. M. Clayton and I. M. Longstaff.

The chief purpose of the club is to foster the game in the college and so enable V.U.C. to regain the prestige in inter-Varsity golf she enjoyed in pre-war days, when the cream of Wellington's golf were representing Vic. Our team acquitted itself well at Shirley last August to gain second place behind A.U.C. and it is anticipated our chances this season are even brighter.

A number of club days will be arranged this season at different Wellington courses, and if all the golfers at V.U.C. come forward and support the club there is every prospect of a successful season.

All students interested in the activities of the club should contact a member of the committee for further information.

Students at the Polytechnic Institute of Turin went on strike on December 2, 1952, in order to force about a complete re-organisation of the curricula that are by now fifty years old. They staved that they would have to work for 13 hours in a day. If they were to get through with their assigned tasks of attending lectures and seminars, re-writing their notes, and making drawings.
