Bimantara wins shooting contest

JAKARTA (JP): Bimantara Shooting Club, whose team members
include Bambang Trihatmodjo, was the overall winner in the two-
day rapid-reaction firing contest at Jakarta Military Command.

The club collected nine medals -- consisting of five gold,
three silver and one bronze -- at the event which ended yesterday
evening, the command's spokesman DJ Nachrowi said.

Besides Bambang, who is the son of President Suharto,
Bimantara's win was also triggered by another of the talented
club's members, Herman Anggoro.

Herman was able to keep at bay contestants from the Navy,
Armed Forces and National Police.

According to Nachrowi, the competition at the Senayan shooting
range involved 17 shooting clubs.

The Jakarta Military Commander trophy grabbed by Bimantara was
handed over to the team by the command's chief of staff, Brig.
Gen. Sudi Silalahi. (bsr)
