Shoot in Drenching Rain.

The conditions which prevailed when
the Sadler trophy match was being shot
yesterday were far from favorable. A
heavy drizzle, continued with a strong
northeast wind, caused much discontinue
to the marksmen as they lay in the wet
grass pegging away at the targets.

nerve and muscle to get in the bull s.

no assurance of staying, for time and

him since his arrival on the range For
the third time in match he missed the
target entirely on his last shot. This was
due in great measure to the fact that
he had been informed that the team
was then ten minutes over time. After
he had fired. it was discovered that he
still had five minutes in which to have
fired his last shot. This one error in time
cost the District team heavily when the
final scores were made UP for this dis
tance.
At the sOO-yard stage high honprs went

Payne both of whom scored "a out of

when the conditions are taken into con-
sideratfon.

District marksmen did not do as well at
this range as they did at the short range,
but held their own. although the non
contesting X. NJ. A. team beat them out
one point in the final skirmish.
