DIFFERENCE SETTLED
JENKINS RUNS FOR V.U.C. From, Our Resident Reporter WELLINGTON, Today. A difference between two university colleges has caused a rule to be broken in the selection of the Victoria College athletic team for the InterVarsity athletic meeting this month. For the first time there appears in i the Victoria College team the name of j j C. H. Jenkins, New Zealand 220 yards j ! champion and past 100 yards title- 1 t holder. Yet this is the third year that j j Jenkins has been eligible, and each I j time previously he has been passed ! i by- The explanation is that Jenkins ‘ is a member of the Wellington Athletic Club, and not the University Club, and that preference has always been given to men who all the year are associated with their varsity. Other colleges have applauded the action of Victoria College in omitting Jenkins, but this year the local college believes Canterbury to be in a. similar position in regard to J. H. Murphy. When it was discovered that Alurphy had been chosen for Canterbury University College, Wellington decided to lift the ban on Jenkins.
