ORIENTEERING Since publication of the last magazine a regular group of orienteers has achieved a fair measure of success in National Badge events. Much of this has been due to genuine interest and a desire to improve standards, the latter being readily apparent from the number of attendances at training courses on Strensall Common. It must be stressed to newcomers that there is still room for the novice, since many events are designed with their express requirements in mind. Those who consider themselves expert are willing to help any new competitor, since it must be remembered that teaching others is a very good way to improve one's own standards, and none of us are beyond the stage where improvement is needed. Results since the last magazine: — NO VICE EVENT—ESHOLT (May '73) NOVICE COURSE 1: 2nd M. P. Haw; 5th G. C. Pattie. MAP MEMORY COURSE (FOR EXPERTS): 8th C. J. Hirst. MANCHESTER NATIONAL BADGE EVENT (May '73) GOLD standard: C. J. Hirst. SILVER standard: S. Bruce-Jones. BRONZE standard: E. Atha, G. C. Pattie, M. L. Warne. 39
