Copy has not yet been handed in from the Swimming Club. However, Salient knows that Pip Piper, who was to have been a member of the team, had to return to Wellington on Saturday owing to his wife's illness and this would have weakened our chances—particularly in the water polo.

Des Dowse swum up to predicted form and won his events—in the 100 yards breaststroke he broke the New Zealand University record.

The Team runs as follows:—
  • Miss Jill Morton, 50 and 100 Yards Freestyle.
