Fine Rugby Win
Pitted against the leading team on Saturday, 'Varsity rose splendidly to the big occasion and won a hard-fought game on a heavy ground by a single point. The 8/7 victory was a meritorious performance against the strong Petone fifteen.
Relegation to the Second Division of the Senior grade has been the unhappy fate of the Hockey Club's first eleven. But the Club as a whole fared better on Saturday, four of the seven teams winning their matches and one drawing.
In the important Dorne Cup race, the harrier team finished sixth, due largely to good running by Newall and Scrymgeour, who filled 9th and 10th places respectively.
