In the under 13 comet championships, eight - year - old Neville Grenfell won the melody section with 79 points, while B. Macfarlane was third, only one point behind the secctid place competitor. Another member. Gary Henderson, was fifth with 64 points. Several others performed satisfactorily in other age groups without gaining major placings.
