The Victoria Swimming Club meets every Thursday evening, from 7 to 8 p.m., at Thorndon Baths, Races are run off and points awarded count towards two cups, one being for championship races and the other for handicap races.
On Tuesday, March 22, the club is holding its Annual Inter-Faculty, commencing at 7 p.m. Results of these races will help decide the winners of the cups, and will give the committee an opportunity to spot likely talent for the Easter Tournament team to be sent to Auckland on April 7. The team consists of twelve people, six of each sex, and in addition some extra men for water polo. Men in this team can now qualify for a VUC Blue.
All this applies to people who can swim more or less, but even if your limit is one length dog-paddle, come along and you will be coached to the best of the club-members ability.
For a quiet swim, fifty per cent cheaper than at regulation baths, well it is There for the taking—3d—with pleasant company thrown in.
