PROMISING PERFORMERS
The V.R.C. night fete to-morrow promises to be full of interest and the heats for some of the events were swum off last night..

Mr. W. L. Butt, who, incidentally was a swimming team mate of Dutch Smith, has taken the V.R.C. boys in hand and although the standard had heen high in the past, it is likely that things will be even better next year. Mr Butt is confident, that he will make first class swimmers of some of the more backward опез

The members of the VR Ware under Mr. Butt's care, are cer- fainly being well looked after and bry detail of their training from day to day is carefully entered up.
