TO-NIGHT’S SWIMRING CHAMPIONSHIPS

A highly interesting programme has been arranged for the Otago intermediate and junior swimming championships at the Municipal Baths to-night, good entries having been received for the < different events, while the men’s 220yds championship has also drawn a fine entry. The outstanding feature of the programme is likely to be the meeting in the intermediate division of W. J. Jarvis and Reg. Geddes; but in all other classes there should be some thrilling races.
