Not content with making idle boasts, Sgt. Arthur W. Millard, team coach, has sent a challenge in the form of a letter and the above picture to the National Rifleman's association. He thinks the N.R.A. may publish the letter and picture in American Rifleman and sponsor a contest among clubs of a similar type throughout the nation.
Behind her appointment as team mascot lies a story. Sgt. Millard, who lives at Hotel Eldridge met her one day in the hotel lobby and began a conversation with her. Impressed with her attractiveness and childlike intelligence, he struck up an immediate friendship with her.
"I even took her to the show several times," declared Sgt. Millard. "Well, one thing led to another, so in the first meeting last December she was appointed team mascot and presented with an honorary team membership and a bouquet of roses and mums."
