Rifle match counter challenges have been received by the Women's Rifle club from similar clubs at the University of Michigan and the University of South Dakota, Lt. Col. Kenneth Rosebush, team adviser, said today. The match with the University of Michigan team, described by the American Riflem magazine as the outstanding team of that state, will be fired during the week ending March 15, 1947.
Women's Rifle Club Accepts Challenges
Because the University of South Dakota has no men's varsity rifle team, its women's rifle队 accepted K.U.'s challenge, and that match will be fired on the week ending January 11, 1947.
Throughout the firing season from January through March, opportunities will be offered for students to observe the team in competitive firing matches, Col. Rosebush added.
