N. C. R. Gun Club. 
Dayton, Ohio, October 10, 1914. 
A regular gale blew down through our valley this after¬ 
noon sending targets in all unexpected directions, and 
making conditions very trying. 
Messrs. Switzer, Funk, Stanley and Sheridan are “new 
beginners” in the sport. They enj'oyed the shooting 
(in spite of the wind) and we are sure they will soon 
learn to make high scores, even the “wonderful shooter” 
Henderson was only a “beginner” at first.

15,000 Boy Marksmen. 
Over fifteen thousand college and school boy marks¬ 
men is the record for the school year ending June 30th, 
1914. Through the combined efforts of the National Rifle 
Association of America and the National Board for the 
Promotion of Rifle Practice, rapid strides are being 
made looking to the introduction of rifle shooting as 
one of the recognized sports in the schools and colleges 
throughout the country and the movement has been still 
further stimulated by a recent Act of Congress authoriz¬ 
ing the free issue of rifles and ammunition to such clubs 
and to cadet corps. 
This work was begun several years ago by the Na¬ 
tional Rifle Association backed by the War Depart¬ 
ment with a result that at the present time there are 42 
colleges and universities and 88 private and public pre¬ 
paratory schools having rifle clubs. National champion¬ 
ships are now being carried on in both classes of in¬ 
stitutions. Among the colleges there are competitions 
both indoor and outdoor representing the intercollegiate 
championship and among the schools, the Government 
has presented trophies representing the public high 
school shooting championship and the military school 
championship of the country. The indoor competitions 
for both colleges and schools are now being organized 
for the indoor season. These matches are shot on in¬ 
door ranges with 22-caliber rifles. 
As an evidence of the fact that the athletic authorities 
of a great many colleges and universities, as well as 
schools, are recognizing marksmanship as a part of 
their athletic curriculum, many of them are giving the 
college or school letter to those students who make 
the rifle teams. 
A feature of this work which is worthy of mention is 
the fact that there have been no serious accidents of any 
kind on rifle ranges since the work was introduced, a 
claim that could hardly hold good in connection with 
other prominent school sports such as football and 
baseball. To overcome the erroneous impression in the 
minds of members of school boards that rifle shooting 
is dangerous, the War Department has offered to sev¬ 
eral cities sub-target gun machines for installation in 
their high schools. This is an apparatus which teaches 
rifle shooting without the use of powder and ball and 
is a mechanical contrivance which assimilates 1 actual 
rifle firing and which has been used with great success 
on our warships and in Army barracks. 
There is one of these machines in every high school 
in Greater New York where there are over 7,000 school 
boys between the ages of ten and eighteen who qualify 
annually as Junior marksmen under the schoolboy course 
approved by the War Department.
