twice for Mr Blackburn. Coun. Miss Alston, how­


ever , agreed to accept the first vote and took the posi­ t i o n of commi t t e e vice-


chairman. i

NEAR MISS FOR MICK


ONLY a couple of points denied sharpshooter Mick


Meggison a 3,000 mile trip to Montreal to represent Britain


at the Olympics. After a week of trials, the


selectors decided Mick, for­ merly of Clitheroe, should be first reserve for the rapid fire pistol team. Mick (27) who runs a sports shop in Great Harwood, has decided not to trav e l to Montreal unless absolutely necessary, because of business commitments. He has now set his sights


firmly on the Moscow games of 1980, when the present team members will probably have retired and he will have a


great chance. TEAMS
