SPORTS SLANTS
Spectators at the weekly meeting of the Papakura Amateur Athletic Club again saw the Camp . team much to the fore. a new member .to the team, Pte_ Dow, won the 100 yds off eight yds in 10 3/5 sec. The remainder of the team are gradually moving towards the scratch mark x and really have to run to gain a y. place. Both Cpls. Nairn & Dove are well back in the ladies events but will show something when the club Championships s tart. S/Sgt. Roulston’s run in the P p o yds was the most exciting event o r the night - he came through from scratch . mark to finish second. Sgt. Sutherland is the scratch man in both shot & discus, and will also win the club Championships, probably smashing all their, local records. The local club is particularly interested in our Camp a till e tics and spares no effort to assist them. 1 .
