Other Club activities have been of a routine nature. The work shop's equipment continues to increase, thanks to the generosity of interested parents and friends. A closed film show was held and some work done on the School's motor-mowers. Finally the Club must record its appreciation of the help and support rendered by the half dozen or so sixth formers, enthusiasti cally led by M. Louw and J. Viljoen, who leave us at the end of this year. We wish them well and hope that they take with them a responsible attitude to motoring and, in particular, the important aspect ofRoad Safety. R.W. SHOOTING Since the interschool competitions in the second term, little shooting has been done. In past years shooting practice has been available to the whole cadet detachment but with our increased numbers and only six firing points, this is now impossible. It is hoped that cadets will undergo a short training course on the use ofrifles and a selected group will be trained for the Natal Command Bisley in the second term. Undoubtedly the most consistent shot of the year has been P. R. L. Allen,supported by P. Keegan, G. Scott, C.Labuschagne, W.Rake, A. Crewe, C. Ashby,and J. Groom. Competition is a very important agent in training, and interhouse, interschool, and individual trophy contests would be an effective way of increasing proficiency and enthusiasm. P.J.R. THE BAND The Band put on a short display offigure marching at the inspec tion ceremony this year.Colonelvan den Hooven commentedfavour ably. Rivalry at the band competition was keen and Kearsney put up an excellent show. Our position offifth out ofseven bands was mis leading for only a few points separated the first few places. We gained the highest number of points for the slow march and lost only one point for turnout. Efforts are being made to establish a Junior Band during 1966. This will enable boys to gain experience before finding themselves in the competition'band. M.S. 86
