LIFE-SAVING WORK
TAKAPUNA CLUB RECORD OF PROGRESS Details of the work done by the Takapuna Surfi and Life-saving Club since its foundation in March were given when the first annual meeting of the club was held last evening. Mr. J. W. Williamson, Mayor of Takapuna, presided. The report submitted to the meeting stated that eight members of the club had qualified for the Royal Life-saving Society’s proficiency certificate, three for the bronze medallion, and two for honorary instructor’s certificates. Money raised through dances had enabled the club to import an up-to-date surf reel from Australia, but the landed cost of this had now been refunded by way of grant from the borour council. The balance sheet showed a credit of £ 30. The following officers were elected: President, the Mayor of Takapuna; secretary and treasurer, Mr. R. M. Moor; honorary physician, Dr. Ram-sey-Smith; auditor, Mr. E. G. Tucker; club captain, Mr. M. V. Kronfeld; team captains, Messrs. A. W. Collins and R. M. Moor; committee, Messrs. A. Collins, A. Gunn, V. Douglas, N. Browa, T. Greenhalgh, R. Dunn, G. Lawrene# and E. Mclnman. The season will be opened on Labour Day.
