Rowing interrupted
PA Dunedin The case against Lake Waihola as a national championship venue for rowing has been strengthened by the disruptions which the wind has caused to this year’s New Zealand championships. Awkward wind conditions have led to substantial time being lost on each of the first four days and has renewed a call for all national events to be held at Karapiro. Rowing was postponed at 9.30 a.m. yesterday and it was hoped to make a start later to complete the repechage heats and also run a few semi-finals. Results:— Premier coxless four (1. 2. 3. 4
to final).— Repechage one: Avon (S. Donaldson, L. O'Connell, G. Keys. M. Meates). 1; North Shore, 2; Union, Wanganui, 3. Time 6: 45.34. Senior coxed four (winner to semi-finals).— Repechage 1: Tauranga No. 1,1; Waihopai, 2. Time: 7:07.09. Repechage 2: Avon No. 1,1: Auckland University No. 1,2. Time: 7:03.06. Repechage 3: Tauranga No. 2,1; Tauranga No. 3,2; Auckland University No. 2,' 3. Time: 7:02.25. Repechage 4: North Shore. 1; Te Awamutu, 2. Time 7:18.38. Repechage 5: Wairau, 1; Porirua, 2. Time: 7:38.56. Repechage 6: North End, 1; Blenheim, 2; Otago No. 1, 3. Time: 6:59.59.
