Appeal committees North : Messrs O’Meara and Goldwater; South: Messrs Airey, Mountfort, Austin and Smith. The secretary was authorised to ask the Government to give pound for pound for moneys locally raised for school .instruction in swimming, also to provide for bathing reserves at all the new Government townships. In the cutter race between crews from H.M.S. Eapid and the Auckland Navals, the latter won. At a large meeting at Nelson it was decided to hold the Nelson E-egatta on New Year’s Day. A strong Committee has been formed to carry out the arrangements.
