1958

A file containing a single letter concerning the holding of the European Swimming Championships in Budapest. The letter discusses how the championships were "excellently organised"; and the positive reception afforded to the British swimmers by the Hungarian public, which contrasted sharply with the reception afforded to the Soviet competitors. The letter also covers the difficulties faced by the British team in crossing the Hungarian border.
