TEAM Without the benefit of the pub- licity and fanfare of the football and basketball teams, the rifle team quietly went about winning match after match. The outstan - ing achievements of the year were the winning of the Camp Perry Grand Championship at Boonville, Mo., placing third in the Fifth Arms: area, which won us another of t e coveted Hearst Trophies, and placing second in the Fifth Army inter-collegiate match. Con- gratulations, fellows, we're proud of you. ,nh .nixq ,gl . - i V fu, ,N ..f gt -,,.fr4J.l. Q High point men of the ear: D Pfeifer, C. Wittman, C. Fly. THE NRA CLUB

L g - 4 BOXING The boxing team was re- organized late this year, but the boys were in i good enough shape to participate in at least two matches. ln the first match., held at the School, our fighters were outpointed by E hs although our boys had won four of the seven bouts. In the re- turn match the tables were turned just exactly, with the Cadets wmninlg the match points while . lis led with the bouts. With the con- struction of the new gym, boxing will probably be- come more popular, so look out for our leather-slingers ln the future. . -f! 'F 5: fi .- ,--1' Q .
