Rifle Club 2 LOUIS HOWLAND T HE 1938-39 Rifle Club began its season of club meetings and interschool competitive meets in October. The members elected John Aumen, president and Lou Howland, vice president. The club held practice meetings on Monday evenings and entered the second of the series of the Junior Bi-weekly Team matches sponsored by the National Rifle Association. We also had competitive meets with Quincy, North Quincy, Nor- wood, Brockton and Thayer Academy. The outlook for next season’s team is bright as only two members, Bob Hall and Lou Howland, will be lost through graduation. John Aumen, Paul and Ken Brown, Jimmy Connolly, Warren Erickson, Ken Goebel, Art Petterson, MacLaugh- lin, O’Neil, Dunn, and Buckley can be counted on to turn in good scores when they are needed. The freshmen on the squad, as would be expected, turned in rather poor scores at first, but gradually with experience and the advice given by Mr. Jordan and the older members of the team, they improved until they are now capable of holding their own against anyone else in the club. 03 }
