RIFLE SHOOTING
CITY AND SUBURBS CLUB
The City and' 1 Suburbs Rifle Club conducted its second shoot of the third trophy series at Penrose on Saturday at 800 and 900 yards. The weather conditions were good, except that sudden variations in wind force caught many of the competitors by surprises, and spoiled what would otherwise have been good scores. The scores of R. C. Russell (91) and J. A. Spry (90) were the only outstanding ones of the day, but it is pleasing to note that many of the B grade members registered very creditable scores under what were really tricky conditions. .The following is the score list, the first three men in each grade taking trophy points: A GRADE
