From Our Own Correspondent

Suva, Nov. 2.

THE Governor (Sir Harry Luke, K.C.M.G.). who is patron of the Fiji Small-Bore Rifle Association, has express ed pleasure at the performances of mem bers, who this year put up a score of 1.574, out of a possible 1,600. in the an nual shooting competition between the

various Colonies of the British Empire.

Last year, Bermuda won the Challenge Cup, with a score of 1,570, so there would appear to be good grounds for hoping that this year Fiji, with a score of 1,574, will be highly placed when the final re sults are announced.

Pastor L. Wilkinson, formerly superin tendent for the Seventh Day Adventist Mission in Fiji, has taken up a position as teacher at the S.D.A. Mission Col lege, Newcastle, N.S.W.
