LADIES WANTED AS CUB
MISTRESSES, -..
The finals of the Socute', Annual Swimming Races took place at the V.R.C. bath on Saturday.
The seats around the bath were packed with 'scouts, cubs and scout masters and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon's sport, which pro- vided thrills of the best
O Sloan, of the Taikoo Scottish won the Senior 50 yards and 100 yards races apd clearly established himself the tastest swimmer of the troops. The senior diving was won by a Chinese sea scout and young. Alex Sheldon of the Peak Cub Pack won the applause of the spectators by his clever diving.
The inter-troop team rate was eventually won by the Sea-Scouta after a thrilling struggle.
The Fancy Race...
The fancy race which con- cluded the programme for the after- noon was not without hamour, The competitors were required to swim the length of the bath and without outside help they had to light a candle (with their wet hands () and swim back with the candle alight, Grunberg, of St. Andrew's troop was first away with his candle alight. Reaching half-distance of the bath he glanced at his candle, and with a somewhit worried look turned back and swam to rolight it. It was not until he actually got out of the bath that he found his candle had been alight all the time.' 'In spite of this handicap he back to the winning post and won! An Appeal for Cubbers and Mistresses.
WLIN
Prior to distributing the prizes, the Rey, G., T. Waldegrave, the Scout Commissioner, said that he was sure they were all sorry that the Hon. D. R. H. Kotewall, the President of the Scouts' Associa- tion could not be present. Dr. Kotewall had on previous occasion given away the prizes and was therefore greatly missed.
The speaker also said that he had written an appeal in the farth- coming number of the Silver Wolf for more cubbers. He also wanted more ladies as mistresses us they knew more about the young cubs than grey haired and bearded old men! (Laughter.) It was more convenient for ladies to take up the post as they could attend the meet- ings which generally took place at 3 p.m.
V.E.O."Thanked.
The Commissioner commented on the fine entry from the cubbers and, remarked that it was very encour aging for the movement. The speaker thanked the Secretary and Committee of the V.R.C. for the bath, and all who had assisted in making the afternoon's sport the success that it had achieved,
