INTERPORT SWIMMING LOCAL FOOTBALL RACING SEASON

Final Trials To Be Held At

V.R.C. On Thursday

After the first three preliminary trials at the V.B.C., In the course of which both W. Lawence, and L. Roza Pereira set now records, it is becoming evident that these two swimmers will have to shoulder the burden, in "all the principal races at the forthcoming intérport aquatica at Shanghai

The selectors, however, are faced with the problem of send- Yng up a "good second stiring. The importance of selecting this part of the team can well be gauged by the fact that should anything prevent either of our two stars from shining, the fesser lights wht have to rise to the occasion and in their turn. carry the responsibility of representing Hong Kong.

as a most likely candidate. He should have little difficulty in ac

counting for H. Ozoria and E, B da Roza, who are the other candi- dates. One of the events in Thurs- day's trials will be the 100 fards Free Style with Lawrence standing

down.

Chinese Candidate

It will be recalled that at the

very first trial for the 100 yards back stroke, the record was lower- "ed by L. Roza Pereira, who won by 4 touch from Lawrence, with Lau

Po Hay of the Chinese Athletic Association a very good third. It is considered advisable to hold a re-trial for this race and if possible. to include Lau in the interport for this event, as Lawrence and Pe- reira will have their hands pretty full. If the Chinese swimmer de- serves inclusion in the team, he will have plenty of opportunity of showing it on Thursday when the 100 yards back stroke is од the card, and for which both Lawrence and Pereira are starting. It looks as if the record might be lowered further.

Dead Heat Problem

It will be recalled that in the 100 yards breast stroke, the V.R.C. representative, L. M. Marques dead heated with Suen To Shuen of the CA.A. These two. together with other aspirants, will have- a fur- ther opportunity. of demonstrating. their talent, for the committee has arranged a further trial of the 100
