FIRST DAY'S HEATS

Two Colony records were broken in the first day's heats of the Colony Swimming Championship at the Victoria Recreation Club yester- day and both went with effortless ease.

The free-stylers this year are the fastest ever assembled in a Colony Cham- pionship and the slowest qualifier in the 220 Yards Free Style yesterday was "thaed in 2 minutes 30 1/5 seconds.

Cheong Kin-man surprised the gallery by winning the first heat of the 220 Yards in 2 minutes 20 seconds, clipping 2.4/5 seconds off his Championship record

set last year.
