The various committees were appointed for carrying out the details. It is expected that this yeai's regatta will prove as interesting and successful bs those in previous years. Mr Fullerton and Kf Hendry were re-elected treasurer and secretary. The Committee are endeavoring to offer a jEEfI prize for a best-and-best senior.foul oared race, and should they/receive support and entries from the clubs in other districts they have no doubt but this will be carried out.
