Shooting.

The weather kept a number of boys away from shooting practice on Saturday, but those who did turn up made up in the quality of their shooting what they lacked in numbers. The palm was fairly taken by E. Eames, who cuuld hardly go wrong. This is the second '* possible " he has made this year. Some of the boys remained long enough to fire on all three targets, the Departmental, Hazard, and Disappearing (snapshooting) target. Following are the ' scores (possible on each target is 35 ; total IGS) :— Dept. Haz. Dis. Total. E. Eames, 28 35 30 93 O. Bradly, 26 ?-l 30 87 WMegaon, 23 32 25 80 H, Bates, 21 32 20 73 L.
