“This year about seventy-five girls turned out for rifle practice. For a few weeks the rifle range was overcrowded, and then the ranks gradually thinned to about twenty. Alta Tupper, the rifle manager, challenged and accepted matches with schools all over the United States.
Major F.L. Fuller and Captain B. M. Crenshaw direct the girls. The team greatly appreciates the interest they have shown in the matches and the time they have given to their instruction.
During the season the men’s rifle team challenged the girls to a match for a dinner at the Moscow Hotel. The men’s team won, but Miss Lillian Woodworth carried off the honors for the women by shooting the highest score and winning a prize offered to the women by Major Fuller, and also one for both men and women offered by Lieutenant Hart, instructor for the men.”
