DICKINSON MEN skIRMIsH
LIKE SHARKS VS. Los ANGELES

The Los Angeles daily papers made
much of the fact that the crack Pacific
coast gun club was defeated on July 4th
by the Dickinson Gun Club. The
Times of July nth said:
The individual scores of the Dickin-
son Rife Club against the Los Angeles
Rifle and Revolver Club on July 4th
have been received. Dickinson won by
81 points and the scores show that the
Dakota club won the match by consis-
tent shooting. its high man having 1874,
and its low one 113, while high man
for Los Angeles had 1873 and the low
man 11O.
The Dakota aggregation write that
their team has gone to the Devil 8
Lake State militia rifle encampment-
giving away the fact that they ..are all
national guardsmen-and that they
would like to shoot a match with Los
Angeles about July 27th over 500 and
1. 900 yards on their return.
The local club will probably beat
the northerners at this game unless a
bad day is landed at the 1, 900 yard
stage.
Unless the state ry-outs, to which
