SHOOTING

The Rifle Club has had fewer members this term, an expected consequence of the reduced size of the C.C.F. In some ways this may have been an advantage, though in the long run, the narrower field of recruitment may be expected to have an adverse effect. However, so far this has not been apparent, and the general tone of the Club, and the general standard of shooting, have never been higher. Our two internal competitions, for example, were won with record scores, the "Donegal Badge" by D. J. MacKenzie and the "Green Howard" (individual championship), by N. C. P. Marsden. In all, nineteen members have represented the School in some event or another, while all, it is felt, had a pleasant and interesting term's shooting. There was, indeed, one sad event—our very last shoot of the season, at 500 yards in the Ashburton, was a disaster; although our morning shoot, at 200 yards, was quite good, and placed us among the top twenty, the final result was our lowest since the first year that we entered for this competition. However, in all other respects, this was our most successful Bisley so far, and we brought home one of the major trophies, the "Marling".

Matches and results during the term were: — "Country Life" (shot in March—results came early in term) 31 (153 entries). Our main shoot was our best ever, but the Landscape series as usual was poor. Yorkshire xx Spring Meeting:

Cadet Cup, 2nd (9 entries). Quadrangular Match v. Nottingham, Welbeck and Pocklington: Won. Match v. Athelings R.C., Ampleforth and Pocklington: IVs 2nd, VIIIs Won. County of Lancaster R.A. Meeting:
