HARVARD SHOOTING CLUB.

The weekly meet of the club at Watertown Wednesday afternoon, was well attended in spite of the threatening weather. For some reason, however, the shooting was unusually uneven, and much below the average of last week's scores. Mr. Slocum acted as executive officer, and Mr. C. A. Brown as scorer. Mr. Edmands, '83, was present and shot with the club. The summary of matches is as follows:

Match 1, five balls. First, W. L. Allen, Slocum; second, Abbot, F. Austin, W. Austin, Palmer.

Match 2, Walnut Hill Cup, 15 balls. First, C. C. Foster, F. S. Palmer; second, F. Austin, Abbot. Messrs. Foster and Palmer tied on eleven balls, but on shooting off the tie, miss-and-out, Mr. Foster won.

Match 3, five clay pigeons. First, Palmer; second, Allen.

Match 4, five clay pigeons. First, F. Austin, Edmands, Slocum; second, Palmer.

Match 5, five balls. First, Foster; second, Slocum.

Match 7, five balls. First, Slocum; second, F. Austin, Allen, Foster.

Match 8, five balls. First, Edmands, Palmer, Slocum; second, F. Austin, Goodwin.

The shooting was very difficult because of the driving snow and dull light, which made it almost impossible to see the balls, and more especially the pigeons, when sprung from the traps.
