SHOOTING This term the shooting, although not good, was better than we had hoped. Mr. Le Tocq spent the first few weeks of term trying to find a nucleus around which to build a team. In this he was fairly successful, but the time factor for practices handicapped matters. Three matches were arranged under "Country Life" conditions. Of the three, two were won and one was lost. The results were as follows St. Peter's v. Wellington—Won, 549-542. St. Peter's v. Worksop—Lost, 555-578. St. Peter's v. Dean Close—Won, 555-502. Team F. J. Chadwick, J. Dook, D. Hardisty, C. K. Hudson, L. D. Edinger, J. A. Hannon, R. Parker, P. C. Knowlson. :—

FENCING This term the most recent addition to the long list of School sports has continued to flourish, and great enthusiasm has been shown, particularly by beginners. We have experienced considerable difficulty in finding suitable times for fencing classes, and our thanks are due to R.S.M. Power for turning up at all hours of the day. At the end of the term a match was arranged between the School and York Repertory Company, a much older and more experienced team. We were unlucky in having two of our team unable to take part, but we managed to have the better of the argument. The team and the results are shown below. 1. P. R. Sykes (Captain of Fencing) ... Won 3 bouts, Lost 2 Won 3 bouts, Lost 2 2. C. K. Hudson Won 3 bouts, Lost 2 3. D. S. Carr ... Won 2 bouts, Lost 3 4. J. C. M. Rayson Won 2 bouts, Lost 3 .• 5. R. F. Wyman Result St. Peter's School 13 bouts. York Repertory Company 12 bouts. Following this match, C. K. Hudson and D. S. Carr were awatded their Fencing Colours. •

SCOUTING The beginning of a new school year coincided with the introduction of Senior Scouts as a separate section of the movement. This has unfortunately entailed the number of patrols in the Senior School being reduced to three owing to the lack of a Scouter to run a Senior Scout section. The Hound Patrol has therefore disappeared for the time being. 37
