Jack Swanston: Rotary Quiz - Plate Competition v Selkirk

Vice President Sandy Bannerman was in the chair at last week's meeting of the Rotary Club in the absence of the President Scott Elliot when Jack Swanston had Brian Beattie there as his guest.  A deputation from Selkirk Rotary Club visited for a round of the Rotary Plate quiz which comprised of President Jim McPherson, Jan Henderson, John Pack and Les Rutherford.  The Hawick team was Gus Neilson, Ron Sutherland, Ron Smith and Jim Walker.  Quizmaster was Alan McCreadie and after a closely fought contest, where some of the questions would have given TV's University Challenge teams a taxing time, Hawick ran out winners by 20-12.
