A. AND M. RIFLE TEAM MAKES
GOOD AT CAMP PERRY

money.” The Remington Cup Match
was the first match that the team
entered as a whole. When the re
sults of this match were posted A.
and M. Stood ninth from the top.
This rating outranked many teams
that were composed solely of lajors
and captains—old veten.'., Smtlemen,
and crack shots.
As was explained bjM-^h Col. Mu-
ma, executive officer, the intercolle
giate match was an entirely new
thing and consequently an experi
ment. It is probable that hereafter
the R. O. T. C. Colleges will not be
compelled to compete with such
schools as the Naval Academy who
this year had three representative
teams that had fired the regular qual
ification course daily since the 5th
of March. While it is true that the
Aggieland Riflemen brought home
no gold medals it is some consolation
to say that they, in two different
matches, placed above all R. O. T. C.
teams present.
The experience gained was alone well
worth the trip! On every range world
records were broken. Sgt. Crawly, ma
rines, scored one hundred and seventy-
seven consecutive bulls-eyes at eight
hundred yards, and it was by care
ful observation of such preformances
that impressed the beginner of the
importance of all the minor techni
calities and fine points of the shoot
ing game.
There are big hopes for establish
ing a Camp Perry right here on our
own range. Plans are being made to
allow students to fire the regular
army qualification course in rifle and
pistol. Strange as it may seem to
some, rifle shooting can be made ex
tremely interesting and it is hoped
that it will become a major activity
with every student. We have a well-
equipped range, Sgt. Hyland has a
million rounds of ammunition, there
is a box of star-guage Springfields
coming. By the end of the present
scholastic year each unit on the cam
pus should have its team picked, each
win the field day at their respective
R. O. T. C. camps and all tie for first
place at Camp Perry in the fall.
ATHLETICS IN
R. O. T. C. CAMP
We, Texas Aggies, have a terribly
bad habit of placing at the head of
athletics in summer camps as well as
in the regular college year. The sum
mer of 1921 was no exception to the
rule. In fact, it was an advance over
previous years. It will be well for
the men going to camp in the fu
ture to get set and go prepared if
they are to uphold the records of this
past summer.
The Infantry went to Fort Logan,
Colo., the Artillery to Camp Knox,
Ky., the Cavalry to Presidio, Cal.,
the Aviation to Fort Sill, Okla., while
the Signal Corps was at Camp Vail,
N. J.
Infantry Wins AH.
When the Doughboys landed in
their camp at Fort Logan, it was
found that practically fifty per cent
of the entire camp was composed of
boys from College Station. This was
the main reason that there was very
little athletic competition during the
camp. A movement was started for
a baseball schedule among the differ
ent schools, the winning team to be
