...LIGHT WEIGHT SPARRING.Duker, M. I. T.; Paine, H. A. A.; Wright, H. A. A.; Taggard, B. Y. M. C. U. In the first two bouts Taggard and Duker defeated Paine and Wright respectively.

About fifteen members of the Shooting Club faced the traps yesterday afternoon, to compete in the new series of matches. Better weather conditions could hardly have been asked. The air was bracing, without being too cold; there was not wind enough to interfere with the shooting, and the clear light gave uninterrupted view of the swiftly flying birds. As was to be expected, the scores showed the effect of the forced in action during the mid-years, and failed to reach the usual high average. The next meeting of the club, March 4, will probably bring out a large number...
