GERALDINE RIFLES.
The return match between the Temuka and Geraldine Rifles took place on Saturday at the Ga’-aldin* range, and resulted in a victory for the visiting team. The afternoon was rather cloudy, with slight showers whilst they were firing at the 200yds range, and part of the 300yds. Afterwards the sun came out very strong, which made the shooting at the 500yds range very difficult. The following are the scores ;
