The school won quite a few William Randolph Hearst Trophies.

Strange. Don't know why everyone didn't have their rifles in the picture. All other years did. I remember once when I shot a hole in the roof as I was adjusting from kneeling to prone.:)

  2. I don't remember, but "hamming" it up was common practice back then. Bottom row far right is the culprit responsible for the hole in the roof.:)

    Oh how I would love to roll back the clock to those times.
