TEAM MAY Be
NATIONAL CHAMPS
.ss of Movement to Have Ten
Scores Counted VIII Give W. s.
G. Good Chance

After going through the regular
,otional championship series unde-
.ooted. making II per feet scores in
90 matches. the Washington State
College rifle team, 1915 national
champions, stands a good chance of
ho;,g awarded the high honors of all
colleges of the nation for the present
voor The chance for the champion
Yin hinges upon the decision of the
Judges of the National Rifle associa-
zion regarding the requests that the
.cores of 10 men on the team be
counted in the aggregate, rather than
tho scores of the five highest.
The Washington State team was
nosed out by the Michigan Aggies in
the straight five-man team shoot,
the score standing 1898 to 1897,
difference of but one point in a
nossible of 10, 900. However, in their
own meet both of the teams shot per-
foot scores. w. S. C. further scoring
nerfect total for the five reserve
men. Early in the shoot, when it
hecame apparent that two or three
of the teams would tally close to the
nossible mark for the entire season
several teams made application to
the Judges to have the scores of all
10 men on each team counted for
the team total. No decision had been
made on the applications, but it is
understood that the judges look up
on the proposition favorably.
In such case it is probable that
that championship will come to
Washington State for another year,
as it is not thought likely that any
team beat the w. S. G. 10-men ag-
gregate of 25,874 points in a pos
sible $4,000.
An interesting face in connection
with the matches is that both w. S.
G. and the Michigan Aggies shot II
per feet scores in 10 matches, and
that each team had two men who
shot perfect totals in every match.
The Washington State men who
made that record are Geue and
Saupe, while Pennington and Keen
performed similarly for the Mich
igan Aggies.
The fact that the Washington
State team used the regular service
rifle in all matches, while the Mich
igan shooters used the Stevens rifle,
on which the sights are much diff
ferent, is expected to count in favor
of the W. S. G. team when the de-
cision is made and the championship
awarded.
Much credit for the success of the
rifle team during 1915 and 1916
goes to Sergeant w. n. Pickett, who
coached both teams. Himself a
marksman of national reputation,
Sergeant Pickett coached the men
under him to one national cham pion-
snip and to such a position in the
following year that it will take a
mighty close decision to award the
honors.

ANALYzINe THE DEBT HABIT.

It is often wondered, in fact 1t has
been q matter OF wonder all through
the civilized ages why people go In
debt, knowing the burden, the hard
ship, the annoyance, the humiliation,
the mental anguish 1t entails. The
following analysis Of the mental hab-
its Of debt" by William H. Handy in
the Saturday Evening Post, is the
best diagnosis Of the subject we have
ever seen and 1t is reproduced for the
benefit Of the readers Of The Eagle:
II. An overestimate Of income. In
mild cases this consists in counting
the maximum. II man is working
at So q day, he multiplies rs working
days in the month by 3, without any
allowance for sickness, accident. bad
weather or unemployment. II he Is
In business, he counts the next month
on par with his best month in the
past; II in a profession, he figures the
largest possible number OF clients. In
the more exaggerated type Of debt
mind he expects unexpected good
luck to add to his regular income.
"2. An underestimate of expenses.
A tendency to count them as extraor-
binary emergencies that won't hap.

"3. Thinking that n you can afford

itors want as Injuries to be looked
after In 60 to 30 days, or when we get
around TO II.

owe our station in life than what we
owe our tradesmen. II is easy for the

~. In thinking that living In the

There is'as much difference between
