DENSE SMOKE
HANDICAPS SWIMMERS The smoke from the Ruakura swamp fires was so very thick in Mdtrinsville last evening that it became very inconvenient during the swimming sports held in the Morrinsville Baths, which are lit by electricity. The smoke was so dense that the swimmers could not see the course. Several competitors struck the end of the baths before they were.aware of its proximity. One lost a tooth, while others received bruises. —,—— V 7
