JAPANESE SWIMMERS
TOUR OF DOMINION NEXT YEAR PROSPECTS CONSIDERED BRIGHT. (Per United Press Association] CHRISTCHURCH, January 10. It is possible that a team of swimmers from Japan will make a tour of New Zealand next summer. The council of the New Zealand Amateur Swimming Association has received advice from Mr S. J. Gudsoll, a New Zealand business man, who has been conducting negotiations on its behalf in the course of a visit to the East, that Japan cannot send a team this season owing to the imminence of the Olympic Games. Japan has already declined an invitation from America, but the Japanese officials have promised Mr Gudsell to send a team in the summer of 19S0-37. Mr Gudsell stated that he has an entirely new project to put before the council on Japan’s behalf when he returns. He describes the prospect of international visits as “ extremely bright.”
