“Il is disappointing that some parents are indifferent to their children’s activities,” states the annual report of the Southland Swimming Centre in commenting on the financial position. “What could be nicer for parents and their friends than to come along to carnivals and encourage their children’s efforts in this outstanding and necessary sport and at the same time show that they are at least grateful for the time and attention bestowed on their children by the Centre, clubs and enthusiastic coaches? However, because of the generous response by professional people, business houses and others to our appeal for funds, we are pleased lo be able to state that our financial position is not unsatisfactory.”
