Life-saving Contest

The Nelson College for Girls' team won the life saving rosebowl when the annual contest organised by the Nelson branch of the Royal Life Saving Society was held last month. Three teams competed and such was the high standard displayed that only six points separated the three teams and only 1 1/2 points separated the teams in the resuscitation section. The other two teams were from Waimea College.
