MINIATURE RIFLE CLUB. (From Our Correspondent.) There was a splendid attendance at the weekly shoot of the Mataura Miniature Rifle Club held in the Horticultural Hall on Monday evening, when the first shoot in the championship and aggregate competitions was held. Particular interest centred on the fact that the first of four shoots to decide the destination of the United Trading Co.’s Cup was also scheduled and resulted in a win for the Mataura team with a score of 734 against Wyndham’s 716. In addition, the local team also won the inter-club match with 933 to 913. The self-handicap trophy, which has been competed for for the past three shoots, was also decided, the winner being H. Keen with 74—6—80, and runners up A. Russell 76—2—78, and O. Davis 70—8—78. Following are the other scores:— United Trading Co. Cup. First Round. Mataura. R. Barclay 76 W. Webb 74 A. Russell 79 E.
