Winners of this Season's Races.

The last few mouths have been very active for this Club, and, although our membership is still small, we feel that we can at last claim a real Swimming Club for Victoria College.

Commencing on the last day of November, the Club has conducted weekly handicap races, points being awarded for first, second, and third places and for starting.

Starting with small fields each week has seen a progressive increase in the number of starters until, latterly, good fields have started in each race.

A start has also been made on Water Polo, and a team entered in the local competitions with encouraging results.

With the interest that is being taken in this phase of the sport it is apparent that next season we will be in a position to field two or more teams.

On the evening of December 15th, 1932, the Club conducted its first Inter-Club Carnival at Thorndon Paths, good entries being received from the local clubs. For a first attempt, we fee that the function was a distinct success from all but the financial point of view.

The Club has been represented at every Inter-club Carnival, members thereby gaining valuable experience by competing against members of other clubs. In Centre Championship events we have been represented in the Women's Dive by Miss Peggy Price, who annexed the title, and in the 220 yards Breaststroke by I. Archibald, who gained fourth place. Miss Peggy price was also chosen to represent the Centre at the New Zealand Championships, and gained second place in the Women's Dive.

One of the most enjoyable outings was a visit to the Ridditord Baths as the guests of the Hutt Valley Swimming Club, where we participated in free-style, breaststroke and relay races, diving and a game of water polo, to say nothing of a very good supper provided by the female supporters of that Club.

Tournament trials are being held in the immediate future, and indications point to a much stronger team than has been sent from this College in the past, although we are not yet up to the standard of the other Colleges in the men's free-style events.

Owing to the lamentable absence of Tepid Baths in this city, some difficulty is being experienced in conducting College Championships this year, but the Club intends to hold these events, and supporters and members are urged to watch the notice-board for particulars.
