LIFE-SAVING

Lyall Bay Club Activities An active year for the Lyall Bay Surf and Life-Saving Club unfortunately resulted In a financial loss. The report submitted at the annual meeting recently attributed the deficiency to the bad weather for the Christmas gala and to the cost of sending a team to the New Zealand championships at Greymouth. The Income last year was £5O and the expenditure was £7O. Several rescues are recorded to the credit of the club. The membership Is 84, and a pleasing gain in junior members is repotted. Club teams were successful in winning the William Henry Memorial, Provincial Beltman’s Championship, Sanderson Cup, Otakl Shield, and Kennedy Cup, and also the Silver Reel, which was later Lost. The club team also won the swimmers’ memorial for the ninth successive year. The 1930-31 season will open on Saturday, November 1. The officers for the coming season are: —Patron, Mr. L. P.
