Colony Swimming Championships:
THE CHINA MAIL," THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER
EUROPEAN “Y” GIRLS THEIR CHANCE TO SHINE TODAY
HAVE
"Lucky" Rose's European YMCA girls should steal the show at the Colony Championships this evening. One factor in their favour is that they don't suffer from "nerves" and today comes their chance of carrying off two Championships.
But the event of the day will be an affair that will last a little more than half a minute all told. This will be the Women's 50 Yards Free Style and will feature VRC's Cynthia Eager, the European YMCA's Vanessa Giles and Molly Williams and the Chinese YMCA's Wong Yuk-bing-and-Fung · Ying-chee,
The first question to be settled will be Shauna Anderson's right to retain her place In the record book in an individual event. She still holds that 29.6 seconds. record that keeps cluding Cynthia Eager, whose heat time was 30.4.,
