Summary

On the afternoon of Saturday 2 April 1921 the South Australian Ladies' Rowing Association held a test race to decide who should represent the state in the ladies interstate four-oar event to be rowed at Launceston, Tasmania, on 25 April 1921. A crew selected from metropolitan ladies' clubs was challenged by a crew consisting of M. Guerin(bow), Olga Graske(2), Eva Bulling(3), Roma Legg(stroke) and J. Murphy(cox) from the Port Pirie club. The Port Pirie crew pictured won the race and the right to represent South Australia in Launceston where they beat crews from Tasmania and Queensland to win the competition.
