Victoria's chances in the golf are not excellent, although the team is fairly strong. The Balmacewan course at Dunedin, on which the golf is to be played, requires a fair amount of local knowledge, and the home Otago team must, therefore, be given an excellent show of winning.

The Victoria team consists of Rodney Barltrop, who won the individual competition last year and is an NZU Blue; Duncan Simpson, who, after a year's lapse, returns to the team and hopefully will show the form which led to his being named a reserve for the NZU team in 1964; John Billington and Kevin Miles, both of whom have had Duncan Cup experience.

Barltrop must go out favourite to repeat nis last year's success. Not since the days when Peter Rankin was sweeping all before him has a golfer so dominated the university contingent. The other members of tne team are all capable of very fine rounds on their day, but it would be in the nature of a minor upset if Victoria won the teams event.
