SHOOTING.

Two matches were fired on the miniature rifle range at the back of the gymnasium. Veterans of 1872 and later years met the crack shots of the present day, and although not used to Morris tube shooting, put up a good performance, and were only beaten in the aggregate by four points. The first range was equal to a 200 yards range, and the old boys finished five points ahead. However, in the disappearing target match, the present boys showed their superiority and ended with a margin of nine points. In. the latter match each hit counted three points, and four seconds was allowed for the exposure of the targets. In cases where old boys were at College before 1909 the years are given in brackets. The scores were as follows: —
