V The results of this Competition were not published u11til early i11 January and did not reach ns until some Weeks later. The delay was dn-e to the large entry from all parts of the Flnnpire and the long work of checking the targets. The total number of boys competing was 16,786 representing 622 eorps. Of these units Canada furnished 67 with a total of 2,142 boys. And it is gratifying to note that the highest proportion of expert shots 'came from this country. The conditions, under .whieh this Competition is shot, were changed in l924 to concentrate on mass efficiency in- stead of produeing small lC3lllS -of expert shots as in former years. The Senior Shield, award-ed to the eorps in which Senior Cadets predominate, is based on the combined seore of both Senior and Junior Cadets. to which is added a handicap allow- anee ot' .025 per ead-et in ex-.C-ess of 50. In this eonnpetition the results were as follows: l. New Zealand 649 Senior, 26 Jnniorl net average 65.337, handieap .ti2, gross average of 88.99 per eent. 2.
