A committee headed by Mrs.

of the inning. Rogers led off with
a walk and scored when Peden
smashed a homer over the left
field wall. Porter walked and took
third on Black’s bingle. However,
Shuford, Newberry, and Ballow
all grounded out to end the inning
without another tally.
Stephenson’s single, a pitcher’s
balk, a stolen base, and Scoggin’s
overthrow accounted another run
for the Sooners in the eighth can

in the ninth on Layton’s double
and an error by Scoggin.

The famous Topperweins,
world’s greatest shooting team,
will be in Aggieland this week
end for an exhibition. The show
starts at 2:30 this afternoon south
of the Cavalry stables.
Seeing the Topperweins is like
going to a circus—a rapid suc
cession of thtfills and e^ci((ing
feats, each more unbelievable than
the one before. These gun wizards
have a bag of shooting stunts and
records that are unrivaled. Both
are remarkable with rifle, pistol,
and shotgun, but each has a few
tricks that the other hesitates to
try.
With 14 world records to his
credit, Mr. Topperwein performed
a feat which was published in
Ripley’s Believe It Or Not. Shoot
ing at 72,000 wood blocks (214
inch) with three .22 rifles, he
missed but nine. Out of the first
50,000 he missed only four. This
record included several long runs,
the longest being 14,560. He shot
for ten days, eight hours a day.
Mrs. Topperwein began her
shooting career shortly after her
marriage, and today is recognized
as the greatest all-around woman
shot in the world. She handles all
types of firearms equally well.
One record she holds is breaking
1952 trap targets out of 2000 in
5 hours and 20 minutes—a record
in endurance and ability unex
celled by neither man nor woman.
The Topperweins have shot in
every state in the ilnion during
their careers, shooting side by
side with the best marksmen, and
they remain the undisputed best
