    A. AND M.—KANSAS AGGIES
IN RIFLE COM ETITION
On last Wednesday afternoon, in
spite of the threatening weather, a
team of twelve men engaged in a rifle
shooting competition with a team of
the Kansas State Agricultural College.
The A. and M. team shot on our local
range, and the Kansas Aggies shot on
their range, but up to the present, re
ports have not been received from the
Aggies.
The scores of the high six men on
each team counted, and are given be-
for the A. and M. team. First column
of figures for rapid fire, 200 yards;
second for slow fire, 300 yards; third
for slow fire 500 yards:

Rack and Clayton
tied
for
sixth
place on the team, but the decision was
given to Rack, as the rules give the tie
to the man making the highest aggre
gate score on the longest range.
This score was very good for the
team, considering the weather condi
tions, and beat last year’s team by 72
points, falling below the United States
Intercollegiate ecod of last year by
only 12 points.
Other men shooting, but who failed
to place, were Clayton, Allen, Washam,
Clarkson, Zedler, and Faber. Consid
erable interest has been taken in tar
get practice this year, and with the aid
of the indoor range, which will no
doubt be installed this summer, great
things are expected of the college team
next year.

THE WISDOM OF UNCLE WILLIAM
In Skaneateles there lives an old
chap known as Uncle William. Uncle
William is so famed for his wisdom
that whenever anything extraordinary
happens the townsfolk always ask:
“What does Uncle William say?”
Once a man became ill there anci
had to go West. Word came back to
Skaneateles about the end of the win
ter that he had reached the point of
death. Everybody naturally asked:
“What does Uncle William say?”
“He’ll live till June,” said Uncle
Wiliam, oracularly.
“Why do you think so?” everybody
asked.
“Well,” said Uncle William, still
more sagely, “he always has.”—New
York Times.
DALLAS MAKES GIFT TO CORPS.
Golf playing at A. & M. received
a great impetus when thru Colonel
Sterrett of the Dallas News, the Dal
las Golf Club sent about one hundred
and fifty sticks down here for the
cadets to use. Now almost every af
ternoon the links west of Kyle Field
are dotted with enthusiastic players.
The Dallas Golf Club deserves the
thanks of the whole cadet corps for
its kindness.
