The bad light all the afternoon probably accounted for the scores being somewhat. low, although J. 1.-King put on a good shoot, reaching the club standard at both ranges, and securing, the scratch weekly trophy with an aggregate of 92. The handicap weekly trophy was won by a promising new member, W. P. Andrews. F. W. Chinff recorded the highest individual range score, a particularly good 48 under the conditions. Dcp.-Pres. H. V.
