Hedley Rifle Club Match Sees Pickard Take Top Trophies
The Hedley Rifle Association held a Christians Day match with good early conditions and a brisk wind at 400 yards. T. D. Pickard scored 66 to win the club trophies, defeating F. M. Gillespie who was last match winner, and a tie for the medal at 42 between Pickard and Rolls was decided in Pickard’s favor. An additional handicap for the Chechakho Cup caused adjustments as the executive committee recalculated averages to determine bonuses, with Rolls leading averages at 46 and various shooters receiving bonus points before further competition could alter standings.
