RIFLE CLUB Under the supervision of Mr. Black, faculty sponsor, and Paul Singer, president, the Rifle Club promoted a program with two main objectives: better and safer rnarksmanship, and interest in hunt- ing in the great outdoors. The rifle range in the basement of Jones Hall gives Rifle Club members an opportunity to sharpen their shooting eyes as well as to practice safe rifle procedures. Following the sports season in the fall, hunting enthusiasts can be seen combing the surrounding hills in search of deer and game birds. MJ. Blaek and-Mr. Chivers and other members of the faculty escorted these hunting groups on their forays.
