CITY SWIMMING BATHS
Takings Show Reduction
The more equable weather now being experienced in Wellington may produce an improvement in the returns from the baths under the control of the city council. For the nine months of the financial year these show a decrease from the 1937 figures of £73/4 11. A number of clear days in Novell!Her and December might have encouraged bathers but for the keen winds, which deterred till but the hardy ones. An increase over the period mentioned is shown only at the Oriental Bay pavilion, which was not open in the early part of the previous summer. I'iie takings from all lite baths Cor the nine months to December 31. with the corresponding figures for 1937, are as follows :— 1938 1937
