Practice in Handling the Pistol
is Being- Demonstrated by
Captain Nix.
A late addition to the curiiculum
cf the university is a course in thu
handling of the pistol, which is now
being given in the military depart
ment. The instructor is Capt- n Rob
ert W. Nix, U. S. army, who is an ex
pert rifleman. When the actual fir
ing begins, it may be necessary to
name replacements for the instruc
tional staff, in case any of the be
ginners make mistakes.
The course is a limited one and :s
given in two sections. The maximum
number who may enroll in the course
is fifty. , The work is open at first
to the commissioned cadet officers
and warrant officers, but in case the
maximum is not reached, it will be
thrown open to the sophomores of
the military department. The work
is not regularly provided for in the
schedule and no credit is given for it,
bpt the interest has been very great
and the work is progressing vapidly
because of this fact.
The instruction is given in periods
of one hour a week. The first four
weeks are to be spent in, mastering
the nomeclature of the Colt .45. and
after the holidays target practice la
the gallery will commence, according
to Captain Nix. Tbis work will con
tinue until spring, when work on the
range outside will commence. ?Tatcbes
will be held between the companies
and with other organizations if pos
sible. This course should prove a very val
uable and popular one during the
crime wave that is sweeping tho coun
try this winter.
