Junior Rifle Program
Starts Sixth School
The fifth Basic Small Arms
Training School, sponsored by the
Twin City Junior Rifle Club of Col
lege Station and Bryan started this
■week for 20 boys and girls of this
ancl surrounding communities.
These schools are conducted with
the purpose of carrying out the
aims of the National Rifle Asso
ciation Junior Program which are
to teach safety, marksmanship,
sportsmanship and democratic prin
ciples. Graduates of these schools
fill the ranks of the club when
vacancies infrequently occur.
Instruction in the schools consists
of 18 hours of training in the
fields of the NRA program -vyith
sufficient practical work and com
petition to maintain interest. All
rifles, ammunition, targets, texts
and other materials and supplies
are furnished by the school, mak
ing it unnecessary for the pupil
to invest money in guns or equip
ment.
The following boys and girls, all
between the ages of nine and 19,
are registered in the fifth school:

Local Girl Scouts
Plan Cookie Sale
The annual National Girl Scout
cookie sale begins in College Sta
tion April 7 and lasts until Apx-il
14 this year, according to Mrs. C.
E. Griesser, general chairman for
the sale.
“Through the cookie sale we
hope that every girl will earn
enough money to attend an estab
lished scout camp this summer,”
Mrs. Griesser said. “The scouting
program is supported by Commun
ity Chest and United Fund dona
tions, but each girl must earn her
own money for camp.”
Cookies will be sold from door
to door in both College Station and
Bryan during the drive. Booths
in each town will also be open for
the entire week.
Girls receive the entire purchase
price of each box of cookies, since
the cookies are donated. Profits
from booths will be divided equal
ly between all the girls going to
camp.

A-Field Victory
A thix-d-inning scox-xng deluge
gave A-FA’s softballex-s an 11-9
edge over A-AAA in an upperclass
man tussel. Bob Cook and Dick
Howax’d wex*e leading sluggers for
A-FA, each accounting for two
scores.
Howard cracked open the game
in the thix-d with a neatly-placed
home run, allowing first sacker
Eax*! Geddes, left-fielder Tommy
Smith, and third baseman Bob
Cook to complete their round axxd
erase an early A-AAA lead.
The A-FA battexy featured the
consistent hurling of Jack Edwards
and aggressive backstopping by
Leon Withex-s. Edwaxds and With-
ex-s each added one scoi’e in the
thix-d inning.
Raymond Van Eaton, rapid-fix'e
pitcher for the twice-beaten AAA
team slipped under his earlier
showings, allowing the bases to fill
prior to Howax'd’s thix-d-inning
blast. Howevex-, the AAA battery,
completed by catcher De Wayne
Williams, was very efficient. Sec
ond baseman Gene Hattox was the
biggest asset for A-AAA with
thx-ee nxixs to his cx'edit.
C-FA blanked A-QMC 16 to 0
in the day’s most one-sided tilt
while unbeaten D-FA withstood a
fourth-inning rally by B-AAA,
