The members and friends who were
present at the Healani show are still
talking of the most enjoyable evening

recent show was the right step in so

One noticeable feature of the row.

helpful in raising the standard of
sport is the friendly feeling that pre-
walls among the members of the three
clubs. They have fought their battles
on the water, and the rivalry there
could not have been improved upon,
but once the winner was declared the
loser has always showed thorough
sportsmanship by being good los

and make an effort to win back the

boat clubs had worked at all times for
the promotion of good clean sport, and
the deyotees of athletics, recognizing
this fact, are due to help in making

The first half was nip and tuck. 1t

surprise when 35 seconds before the
