P.vc 1 rounds- wereallowed oil cadi practice, tho maximum number of paints being 80. Unfortunately ,the entries for thecoliipetit-oii were'not very large, and 0n1y.19 boj's actually took, part. This was largely due to the factthat the cadets attending secondary schools have not J'et quite settled down after the holidays.' Wellington ' Collegewas the only : Wellington'districtscconda'ry school represented, the dctacluneiit from that institution being under the command of'"Major AVi.liams,'M.C. The boys who went out from Wellington competed at a disadvantage compared with:' tho remainder of the. contestants' from other parts of the Dominion, who are shooting, right through .the meeting, in'nsnnieh'as they suffered iroiii want. of practice, aiid had to use short rifles, which ivere'issutd to them when they'ftrrived on the range, and with .which. they ,wero' but little acquainted. The ."result was. that, with'one exception''(CorpL'.W. r.

Tl,e ; thinks unit no great hardship would be done if tri3 Defence Department removed the buildings wliich cover Hie greater part of tho "old lOOOyds. firing point on this range, 'reserving tor the use of' the association those structures which have been built on the right flank of tlie'rn'rige. 1 These buildings could be used 1 by the association as oilices,' in which 1 to 1 houyr-tno association's'records, ctc.,':iJid could thus lie regarded as the headquarters of tho U.R.A.

At ■present it is impossible to "tip" tiie. winner of the-coveted licit, for to-days long-range competitions will undoubtedly upSet ..a-.go'.Kl many ■ calculations.
