The annual competition of the Hamilton Gun Club took place at Ruakura this week. J. Amundsen (Matamata) and C. A. Rofe (Marton) divided the first and second prizes, while E. Thornton (Thames) and F. Loughlin (Hamilton) were the runners-up. Rofe is seen on the left sighting, Amundsen being inset under his arm. The inset in the centre is Thornton. The illustration on the right, where Loughlin is inset, shows a competitor in the quail drive; the referee, Mr. R. T. Reid, is seen in the light suit leaning forward, while the official scorer, Mr. G. Frost, is at the board.
