OPAWA RIFLE CLUB.
This Club, which has just completed the '. first year of its existence, held its final i prize meeting of the season on May 25. . Owing, however, to adverse circumstances, ; notably the Review at New BrigWibn, the j attendance was not large. This necessi- : tated the re-arrangement of the prize list, j and the junior match was struck out, ; owing to there not being sufficient competi- ] tors whose qualification entitled them to fire in that match. The shooting was under the average of the past season, which in a great measure was accountable to the very puzzling light. Appended is the list of matches and prize takers : — ■ First Match (Handicap.) Conditions : 7 shots 200 and 500 yards, any position, one sighting shot at each range allowed. Mr Aynsley ... 51 Mr E.
