Miss Pru Chapman who deserves a paragraph to herself in any report of recent swimming activities is a Fresher and will be swimming for V.U.W. at Tournament, but in the Centre Champs she swam for Wellington Club. Having entered every woman's event held on the three nights of finals. Pru won a little and broke a Centre record in each.

Although she is a medley specialist, her records in every event were within striking distance of N.Z. records.

Her 440 yds medley time of 5 min. 32.9 was only 0.9 of a sec. from the qualifying time for the Mexico Olympics. At Tournament (being held at Massey) there will be time trials for Pru. and the Club, and, no doubt, swimmers and students in general, hope to see her qualify for Mexico there.
