This season the athletic club has had strong representation at all meetings held in the Wellington centre. Some of our boys showing definite promise in local competition are:—

R. Irwin, L. Leikis and J. Clapham in the sprints; D. Beauchamp and M. Stephens in the half-mile; L. Croxson, B. Cooper and D. Trow in the middle distances. In the jumps and field events F. F. Duncan and C. A. Beyer are shaping well.

Barry Cooper is returning some good times in the 220 and 440 hurdles and may well get a place in the N.Z.U. team to visit Australia next year.

In the women's section J. Buck-land has been giving some very good performances.

Ian McCausland, a young junior who recently joined the club, made a fine effort in the, junior provincial mile, coming second in 4min. 27sec.
