ROWING CLUB

Inscriptions & markings

We are all delighted at having invited
Brighton Grammar to use our Club's gear.
So take heed, all-comers. you may yet see the Sommers
As Head-of-the-River next year !

In common with many, we're short of a penny
Our small nexus perplexes, we fear.
But the Vic. State election has eased our dejections.
And with more funds or new pair may appear.

To increase the votes, all those our boats
Canvassed Toorak - 'twas really a dash.
A fifty pound cheque, the reward r our trek,
Is now name our books "Petty Cash."

At Vienna's Olde Inn, the Annual Club Din.
On May two was a splendid assembly.
Such fine fare and good fellows, their voices like bellows,
You'd have thought it a final at Wembley.
