however. the injustice win not seem so
great. 1t is not so long ago that those
portions OF the northern section which
are now covered with residences and

asked Anything further would have
been the building of country roads. The

more and better transportation facili-

they should be so managed that those

THINKS ILLINOIS WILL
AGAIN TAKE THE TROPHY

According to a prediction made by
Capt. Clinnin, range officer at Camp
Logan. Springfield, who is captain of
the Illinois rifle team, Illinois is sure
winner of the Washburn trophy for a
third time at the shoot to be pulled
off during September. Capt. Clinnin
has carefully watched for two days
the shooting of the eight men of the
LIST regiment who are on the state
team, and if anything like the scores
that have been made are secured in
the contest he says the team will be
an easy winner.
Some marvellous shooting has been
accomplished at cross range work.
but the scores will not be made pub
lie. The eight men averaged 40 out
of a possible 200 at this work. Only
the eight men who are on the team
are doing any range work. The re-
mainder of the command puts in the
week at hard drill.
