 Teams We'll Represented
 When the meeting was called to order. twentyfOuT of the twenty nine teams were present. Of the commit- tee Messrs Stallings. Hodgson. Bark doll and Drury were in attendance. and Captain Hodgson pointed out the difficulty of ending the contest in two days. He suggested a half hour session at drilling for each team, and this was pnt in the form of motion, but was amended, and the amend ment prevailed over the motion. Pre- yiously it had been stated that there would be two additional prizes added As amended. the rule for the drilling is that each team shall set up as stated in the original rules, and shall drill. When four teams have drilled, any team falling hehind the time Of the fourth best team that has thus far competed shall cease drilling at once. the air being shut on. As bet ter time ig made. the best four will govern the continHance or cessation Of drilling by any team. The fourth best time, at any and all times during the continuance Of the contest. is the mark set. and if team falls be hind that mark its work ends then and there.
 Further changes were that the drilling begins al seven each morning of the two days, to continue till 7:30 on the first day, and until completed on the second day.

This method requires q turning and a lowering of the ma chine for the drilling of tine waIer hole the drilling being in and out, or out and in, as the ease may be- Under this arrangement the teams draw for location of points for holes az we'll as Tor turn at the drill. This was deemed fair hy all Of the contest ants present after some debate on the subject. though it made the eIe- ment Of luck still further enter. This detail settled. and that there would be . fifteen degree level on the grounds to aid the judges, who shall pun on the angle and point the angle of the drill, and that a variation ot two or three degrees should not count against a team, tbe drawing for posttiOn and turns was taken up. ,s
