The University rifle teams have
been practicing daily in preparation
for the intercollegiate rifle season
which begins in December.
One team is composed of ROTC
cadets, while the other is made up
of students in AFROTC. The teams
are not connected in any way and
separate matches are held, but both
are official varsity representatives of
the University.
Eighteen students are trying out
with the team sponsored by the
AFROTC, which will have a prelimi
nary match soon with a team from
the University of Mississippi.
Shooters for the Air Force are Ben

Statesboro.
The teams practice at the range
located in the military building base
ment, the shooting positions pre
scribed by the National Rifle Associ-
atiort. Most of the matches will be
shot there and are tabbed “mail
matches” because each team shoots
on its home range and then malls
the scores to its opponent.
