Short Course Records Set
(N.Z. Press Annotation) AUCKLAND. Another three New Zealand short course swimming records fell when H. A. Graham and Miss G. Sterling competed in the Auckland centre's carnival last evening. Miss Stirling covered the 100 yd backstroke in 63.8 sec, breaking the senior record by I.2sec and her own junior mark by I.4sec. Graham took o.6sec off the national 100 yd senior breastroke record, held by G. Ruzio-Saban with his time of 64.45ec.
Earlier this month Graham broke Ruzio-Saban’s 110 yd record and Miss Sterling had previously set a new mark in the junior 220 yd backstroke.
