Shooting
At 1.30 on Monday, various odd bods and the shooting teams turned up at the brewery to participate in the shooting and all that goes with it. At the end of the first round. VUC were third, the team having been consistent in obtaining a score of 95 each. In the second round the VUC supporters became excited on hearing that Wobbin Hardwicke-Smith had shot 98. VUC kept this up and came second to Canterbury,
A good time was had by all, what with the "fog, grog and fireworks. Hardwieke-Smith, Henderson and Thomson were picked for the North versus South shooting match which was held the following Wednesday. This was won by the South. Congratulations to Vance Henderson who was awarded a Blue for shooting. We have it on good authority that he has not yet obtained his apprenticeship ticket.
