Water Polo Win for Nelson
Nelson had a convincing 17-0 win over Marlborough in a water polo match, a highlight of the swimming carnival held at the Municipal Pool during the holidays. The Nelson team, which had competed in the New Zealand secondary schools' water polo championships late last year, were too slick a combination for the less experienced Marlborough team. Above-S. Persico poised for a shot at the Marlborough goal.
