POLICE TOURNAMENT

commissioned MlLlerS announced intention of having the
members OF the police department engage regularly in target prac-
tlce gives the impression of being an excellent idea.
Some years ago it was customary for the members Of the
police department to practice regularly and there was a whole
some bit of rivalry in the contests. Officers who so desire, we
understand, are at liberty to try their shooting irons now, but
there is no requirement for practice at stated intervals.
As a beginning, it has occurred to us that the police depart
ment should put on a tournament, The city might make an appfo.
priation for prizes, cups or medals for the winners, or, if that is
not practicable, then the public, we are confident, would be very
glad to donate prizes or cash to the officers demonstrating the
greatest skill.
The interest in revolver practice would be stimulated by such
an event. The tournament should be set for 90 or 90 days in
the future and every officer in the department made eligible to
participate. The prospect Of winning a valuable prize, or even
OF earning the honor of heading the list, would prove an inspira-
ton to the men, and the public would be interested in such an
event.
Friends of the officers realize that the inaccurate use of
revolvers has baked the efforts of policemen in a number of recent
efforts to cope with fugitive criminals and other offenders resist
ing arrest. This defect should be removed, as far as possible, for
two reasons: First, the policeman unskilled in the quick and
accurate use OF a revolver may place himself at the mercy of the
criminal, who is always well armed and usually shoots straight
and, second, the inability of the officer to use his revolver to the
best advantage frequently results in the escape of the criminal.
There can be no question of the courage of the men of the
department. They go readily into danger, and that fact alone, for
their own protection. should suggest the necessity of being able to
What they need is skill commensurate with their courage
and the best way to develop that is to give them plenty of prac-
tce with a tournament for the display of their craftsmanship.
