The sport continues to be one of the most popular in the school. There is keen competition among the students for berths on the varsity teams, espe- cially the Hearst and Camp Perry. Among the matches completed at this time were: the Hearst Trophy match, results of which have not as yet been publishedg the Camp Perry Match at Boonville, Mo., in iwhich the team emerged fourth in the high school di- vision, and 24th in the entire competition. The NRA club fired a prone match, ten men shooting, the five highest scores being taken for record. The club won third place in the na- tion, scoring 1881 out of a possible 2000. The club sharpshooters go to Ellis, Ks., on April 1 to fire in the Midwest NRA match. Other local matches and some postal matches will round out the year's activities.
