Modern Gymnastics Championships
Contestants from several parts of the North Island and from Nelson competed in the New Zealand championships in modern gymnastics in the Y. M. C. A. stadium during Queen's Birthday weekend. All the grace of the ballet and the poise and balance of the gymnast were exhibited by the contenders for top honours, and judges were given no easy task.
Linda Wright (Hawera) gave us this dramatic shot during the junior titles.
