Although beaten 282-202 on

jeeeter Centralia swim team
made quite an impressive show-
ing in their first test of five
scheduled meets at RCAF Cen-
tralia Monday morning.
The local team, ,comprisedd of
swimmers from Centralia and
Exeter, held their own with the
powerful St. Marys representa-
tives most of the w:ay. The big
difference came in the. relays,
St. Marys had two teams in
each relay event. Exeter -Ceti,
tralia had a rough time making
up one team as many of the
local participants were away
for the long holiday weekend,
Points were scored on. an 5.5-4-
