PHOTOGRAPHERS MEET
N.Z. CONTEST DECLINED Wet weather caused a small attendance at the meeting of the Gisborne Camera Club on Tuesday. The president, Mr, R. R. Baldrey, was in the chair. Advice was received from the Christchurch Photographic Society that it was the Gisborne club’s turn to control the inter-club competition for the Bledisloe Cup this year. After a long discussion it was decided to write to Christchurch pointing out that the local club was not yet in a position to control a. Dominion-wide competition, one of the chief troubles being the difficulty of securing judges capable of judging and criticizing such a vast undertaking. Five-minute talks on ‘‘Methods of Working” were given by Messrs Gresham and Hollamby, both speakers explaining their methods and the types of equipment used. The competition for the evening, “The Common Task,” was one of the best exhibits seen at the club and the judges found it difficult to choose between several of the entries. The marking resulted in two members being a laced first equal, and two equal in second niaee. Results were: Messrs. Gresham and Griffin, 1; Messrs. Glanville and Hollamby, 2.
