Parker Shield Harriers
The new rules brought into force for the first time this year provided a grandstand finish for the Parker Shield harrier races at Wakapuaka. The best 18 placings over all sections counted for points. Only five points separated the winners, Nelson, and Trafalgar.
Mr George Wastney hands the shield to Nelson Club representative, Bob Wilson.
There were lots of hungry and thirsty runners after the race.
Recounting experiences are Christine Westrupp, Madeline Anderson and Robyn Westrupp.
Working out the points are human computers George Wastney, Ralph Griffith, Harold Nelson, Alan Hunter and Jim Trigger.
