From now on until May the Shooting Club will hold regular shoots twice a week in preparation for the final intercollegiate match early in May. The intercollegiate cup has been won once by Yale, Princeton and Pennsylvania and twice by Harvard: it becomes the property of the team winning it three times.
This year in addition to the usual spring handicap for a high grade shot gun, and the interclass match, there is a system of rewarding good scores by "qualification pins" in somewhat the same manner as the marksman badges in the militia. A "second class" pin is given for three scores of 20 out of 25 or "first class" for two scores of 15 straight and an "expert" pin for 25 straight. These pins are made in the shape of clay birds and are marked with the initials of the club.
Team matches with the local clubs have been arranged provisionally as follows:
March 17. Brockton Gun Club at Brockton.
March 22. Brockton Gun Club on Soldiers Field.
March 24. Riverside at Riverside.
March 31. Dedham Gun Club at Dedham.
April 7. Boston Athletic Association at Wellington.
May 5. Intercollegiate match at New Haven.
As there is a lack of new material all men who are interested are urged to be at the next shoot or to send their names to 38 Claverly.
