DISMAL CONDITIONS AT Keen Rivalry H.K.R.A. SUNDAY SHOOT At 'Varsity

Mrs. Walker Presents Prizes:

Police Officer Wins Cup

In defiance of all efforts made by the weather to damp mem- bers' enthuslasin for shooting, 185 competitors again, turned up at the Kowloon Ranges on Sunday last. Weather conditions were poor for the most part, with gusty wind and slight rain during shoot- ing at 300 yards. This accounted for a considerable amount of the time wasted at this range with the ultimate result that shooting- had to be curtailed at 600 yards where only members taking part-in- the team shoot were permitted to fire. The shooting was definitely slow all through mainly due to the large number of beginners who calculations and adjust- are taking too long to work out their ments.
