The program for the new series
of National Defense courses being
offered in Houston by the A. & M.

L. McNew, institutional represent
ative for A. & M. The first series

This new series will consist of
some twelve courses, including sub
jects in mechanics, structural de
signing, materials, drafting, and

qualify as a National Marksman
with the military rifle; and among
the many records she holds she
has the distinction of shooting at
2,000 regulation trap targets and
hitting 1952 of them. This is a
world’s record for both score and
number of targets shot in one day
by either man or woman with a
shotgun.
Mr. and Mrs. Topperwein are
friends of long standing with
Lieut. Col. Boles, infantry. Lieut.
Col. Boles says that Mr. Topper
wein can shoot at a target with
his automatic rifle and then turn
and hit the ejected shell before it
strikes the ground, and this is just
one of the unbelievable feats that
Mr. Topperwein can perform with
his rifle.
This great shooting team is giv
ing this exhibition Saturday eve
ning beginning at 2:30, the public
is invited.
