The Finances.

Mr. Summers made an explana- tory statement concerning the affairs of the old League, “ and produced a balance sheet, dated April, 1928, showing cash in hand amounting to 841.08. The sum of $24 was also due to the League from one of the competing teams in a rifle meeting held in March. 1928 making a total credit of €83.08. Against this was an out- standing account of £12 12s. in respect of miniature interport shields supplied from Home.

It was proposed by Mr. Good- man and seconded by. Mr. Swan that the Hong Kong Rifle League he revived under old conditions. This was carried unanimously.

It was proposed by Mr. Lakey and seconded by Sergeant Ritchie that a general mecting be called early in the new year for the pur- pose of electing officers and com- mitten. This WAS unanimously

agreed to, it being also decided to approach the Volunteer Defence Corps to loan a room & Headquar- tera for this purpose.

A general discussion took place concerning the financial aspect of the proposed League and sugges tions were formulated which will he submitted to the general meet- ing for, approval.

Need of New Eange.

The question of a suitable _site for a new rife range on the Kow- loon side which could be used by the League teams and by the Volun teer Defence Corps was also dis cussed. It was agreed that this matter should be referred to the incoming committee.

The hope was expressed that the proposed meeting would be well at tended by all, those interested in rifte shooting in order that Hong Kong enn once again participate in the interport shoots and that in- terest in shooting generally be re- vived in the Colony.
