Party News from the October 1965 issue of the Socialist Standard
A successful discussion between members of the Swansea Young Socialists and the Swansea Branch was held on September 6th.

The audience participation was keen and eager and the Branch are hoping for further discussions with other organisations during the forthcoming autumn season.
1965? . . . Swansea? . . . in all probability the local Swansea branch of the Labour Party Young Socialists would have been a Militant Tendency branch.

Anyway, wouldn't they have still be known as the Revolutionary Socialist League back in '65?
