MOSSBURN
RIFLE SHOOTING The Mossburn Defence Rifle Club held its weekly shoot on the range, 10 shots being fired at each of the 300 and 500 yards ranges. Some creditable scores were made when it was considered that the conditions were anything but good, there being a changeable wind blowing and a varying light. T. Healy topped the list at 300 yards with 46, being followed by J. Healy with 45. At 600 yards P. Mcßride made top-score with 46, being followed by T. Reid with 45, and he counted out J. H. Blatch. P. Mcßride made the top aggregate score for the day with 90, counting out J. Healy, with the same score.
