Swimming

The Swimming Club last season carried out its full programme of activities as in previous years. Although most of the older Club members among the men were missing, and the Club membership dropped slightly as a result, the weekly Club nights were thoroughly enjoyed by those present.

At Tournament, Marie Malcolm gained third place in the women's 100 yards breast-stroke, which was won in record time. Dudley Lane from Massey gained third place in the men's 100 yards freestyle, and the relay team— Marie Malcolm, Jo Pound, Neville Turnbull and Dudley Lane—gained third place. The team, although faced with the difficulty of training in very cold water, turned out regularly each morning at 7 a.m. Members of the team were Marie Malcolm, Betty Walton, Jo Pound, Bruce Hands, Stewart Scoones, John Gillies, Neville Turnbull, and Dudley Lane.

The Club's Championship Cups were both won by freshers, Margaret White taking the women's cup and John Shanahan the men's. The Points Cup was won by Bruce Hands.

The polo team was very successful towards the end of the swimming season, under the capable leadership of Bob Hyslop.
