Lindsay (Canterbury) to Amsterdam to participate in the Olympic Games, the Auckland Swimming Centre will hold a carnival in the Tepid Baths this evening. The programme drawn up is one of the most attractive yet given, and will give the public an opportunitv of seeing the best of Auckland’s swimmers in action.
