FOR KATHIE

Wellington Waters Attract (From "N.Z. Truth's" Dunedin Rep.) Just when the Otago' Swimming Centre was about to enjoy the stimulus of an Olympic swimmer m its midst, Kathleen Miller has decided to pack up her water-duds and make for Wellington. ~■ • ; DETTER swimming facilities is what I '-' takes Miss Miller to the capital, Dunedin not being over-endowed with such accommodation. However, the' O.S.C.'s annual report reflects a very optimistic 'outlook, and .not without foundation. The holding: of the New Zealand championships at Dunedin last January was the chief contribution to last season's success, and the centre is better off at present than ever before— both m finance and property. New public bathing accommodations at the St. Clair and St. Kilda beaches should go a long way towards popularizing the briny, and but for ' the Miller mermaid's departure, things look rosy. Viewing 1 The Country THE N.Z. A.A.A. has some weird excuses put before it at times when considering cases for reinstatement, but first prize must go to the chap recently who explained that he was to be transferred to Wellington and running with the harriers is a good way of viewing the country. The observation bus people need look for small profit from him.
