The San Francisco call., 1896-02-10
Other Rifle CInhs

The attendance at the Columbia Pistol
and Rife Clubs regular shoot at Shell
Mound yesterday was unusually large,
and number of excellent scores were
made on the new Colum bia target. The
competition for centers, which brings Old
Glory up in front OF the target, was keen
on the pistol and rife ranges. A goodIy
number of flags were obtained by the
marksmen on each range. Taken as a
weole the shooting was not the best that
has been accomplished by the members OF
this club.
The midsummer distribution of merchan-
disc prizes promises to be feature. as it
practice with the rifle and pistol. These
prizes are for members only, and do not
in any way interfere with the club medals
or the ali-comers medals, which will be dis
tributed at the end of the wear, or the
cash prizes for members and aIl-comers,
which will be distributed monthly.
A. Strecker made several remarkable
three shot scores, two of the best being 9
and 10. A. Gehret shot long and hard,
and in the last score of the day made y,
which is punching the bullets pretty close
together. The record of Jacobson, second
class, pistol, may be the means of pushing
him forward into the first class, as his
score of 66 was only excelled by two OF the
first class team. The following scores
were made in the several events:
