RIFLE ASSOCIATION THE first annual championship meeting of the Royal Air Force Rifle Association, recently established and affiliated to the Army Rifle Association, concluded on July 6 at Pirbright, after two days' shooting. The Cranwell cadets made a marked impression by their excellent marksmanship, and an all-round efficiency was the feature of the competitors generally. It is to be hoped that the results obtained may lead to the establishment of open ranges not only at the R.A.F. College, but at every Air Force station. Air Vice-Marshal J. F. A. Higgins, C.B., D.S.O., who presented the prizes, said the Chief of the Air Force had asked him to emphasise the importance of rifle shooting. The following were the leading scores in the Grand (R.A.F. Championship) Aggregate :— 1. F.-Lieut. J. L. K. Pearce 242 2. F.-Sergt. Rippon .. 231 3. Corp. Choppin .. 229 4. Air-Com. F^din 228 2265.
