Second came a team composed of Mrs, Johnston (96), Dr. Johnston (97) and Hughes (96), whilst third place fell to Mrs, Siemssen (93) Master Siemssen (91), and Miss Willis Individual scores of those who completed the course were:—Powell—95; Rodger—02;—Woollam—89. Crosthwaite—87; D'Arcy Irvine—89; Hermon—99; Siemssen—91; Eggers—100; Sokoloff—100; Hille—95; Hughes—96; Johnston—97; Mrs. Johnston—96; Mrs. Siemssen—93; Miss Willis—96; Miss Cissie \Pollock—91;
