Attractive Programme For Saturday

(By "Salmon")

The swimming gala to be held at the Victoria Recreation Clau on Saturday should prove to be a good attraction to followers of

local aquatica.

It will be the first real tryout of the season for the "cracks of the premier swimming club in the Colony."

The programme is sufficiently varied to cater for all tastes. There will be free style swimming races for the "A" and "B" Classes in the Club, while the "C" Class contenders will race over a variety of strokes, (breast, back and free style). There will be a team race. a water polo match, diving exhibi- tion, and a ladies race.
