Relaxed Air At North Beach

After the splendour and precision of the New Zealand championship meeting in the Centennial Pool the previous week, there was a pleasantly rustic atmosphere about the Canterbury Swimming Centre’s primary and open carnival at the North Beach centennial pool on Saturday morning. The Canterbury representatives were enjoying a wellearned rest from their labours at the national meeting; their absence presented a number of promising swimmers with an opportunity to show their form in more advantageous circumstances.
