RIFLE TEAM OPENS FIRE The Delaware County Campus Rifle Team will open its season against the University of Delaware on October 17. The team this year will compete in two leagues: The Greater Philadelphia Inter-collegiate Rifle league and the Tri-state League (Pa., Del., Md.). During the com- petitive season which runs from October to April, the team will have 17 matches plus several tournaments. The tournaments this year will include the P.S.U. Winter Invitational, the Professor of Military Science Match at University Park in April, the National Sectional Match spon- sored by the National Rifle Association, and if funds are available, the team may go to the Lake Erie Invitational at Gannon College in Erie, Pa. Last year’s team was the first winning team in the history of this campus for rifle competition. The campus team placed 3rd in the Philadelphia League, 2nd in the P.S.U. Winter Invitational, 2nd in the P.M.S. Match, and 3rd in the National Sectionals (held in Philadelphia). The University of Penn edged the Campus gunners by an aggregate of only 51 total points for 2nd place in the Philadelphia League and in all the other matches, Ogontz Campus was the only team to defeat Delaware County Campus. The team is the competitive arm of the Campus Rifle Club and it is from the talent within the club that the coach of the team draws his members for the team. The Club does its firing on the 3rd Thurs- day of each month in the Reese Reserve Center located in Upland on East 24th Street. The team fires matches in the evening. The team is coached by SSG Joe Veltre, an ROTC instructor. Coach Veltre is enthusiastic about this year’s season and he attributes this to the fact that all but three members from last year’s team re- turned this year. These students are good shots and have one year of competition behind them. In addition, he has seen some real talent in new members trying out for the team. Coach Veltre says that once you make the team, it’s not a guarantee that you'll stay. If a member misses practice consistently, falls below a 2. academic average, or is not productive in competition, he or she may be put back in club status until these deficiencies have been corrected. If you missed tryouts and want to shoot on the team or with the Club, see Coach Veltre in Room 312K. Anyone on campus is eligible (male or female) to participate.

BALTIMORE PIKE : SUPERB DINING IN COLONIAL ATMOSPHERE — SPORTS — STATE GETS PUCKED A sport that has grown immensely in the Philadelphia area has reached our campus. A hockey club, which was organ- ized last winter, is now planning this year’s season. Due to previ- our lack of interest, it will be impossible to form a league this year. Therefore, the returning players are forming an intra- mural program. Our first practice is sched- uled for September 29 at Skate- land, which is owned by Ed Van Impe of the Flyers. Anyone in- terested in joining, please con- tact Mark Episcopo at TR 6- 0668. LIONS KICK OFF SEASON Under the leadership of "head coach Daniel Doran, the Varsity Soccer Team will begin its first year of inter-collegiate competition on September 18, when they face the booters of Delaware County Community College here at 3:00 p.m. Of the twenty-two varsity players on the roster this year, only three upper classmen re- turn from last year’s soccer club. They are John Kennedy, half- back, Ralph Costello, linesman, and Barry Rosenberg, halfback. Many of the soccer team’s members have been practicing skills and conditioning since August 12, hoping to improve over last year’s .500 club record. - APOLLO PIZZA 40 E.

VENISON FOR THANKSGIVING Fall is almost upon us and out of the changing of the leaves and the cooling of the air, emer- ges the HUNTER. Hunting in Pennsylvania is a well established sport gaining the interest and en- thusiasm of many college stu- dents over the past several years. It gives them the opportunity to experience adventure, suspense, and the old age challenge of man over beast. The student also ex- periences a taste of life they have long since forgotten — nature. It is my hope that in this and future articles I can add to your knowledge of the sport and re- ~ cruit new members to the most exciting sport in Pennsylvania. The long awaited deer sea- son is only two months away, (November 19, 1973) and now is the time to get your equip- ment ready. Practicing with your rifle prior to deer season is a must for those who plan on having venison for Thanksgiving. The best way to improve your marksmanship is to hunt the very popularwoodchuck (ground- hog) now, before the animal hibernates for the winter. Chester County, west of Route 100 is the best location for finding these varmits. They are very plentiful on the farms and they are yours for the asking, Do not under- estimate the woodchuck, how- ever; they are very observant and have keen senses. NEW INTRAMURALS STARTING Being only a small cog in the university, the Delaware County Campus is not what you call a breeding ground for col- legiate sports. Therefore, to keep everyone active, we hope to have a successful intramural program: Heading the list will be co-ed volleyball, sponsored by Mrs. Monico. The league started on Monday, September 17, and will be highlighted by the winning team opposing the members of the faculty in October. Another intramural sport forming in our school is flag football which makes its debut Monday, September 17, at 3:00 p-m. Anyone wishing to enter a team can do so by picking up a registration sheet in the lounge or stairwells throughout the school. There will be 14 players on a team, but only 8 will play at a time. No cleats or football shoes allowed, and you can’t leave your feet to block a player at any time. Players will wear flags around their waist so tagging will not be necessary. The games will be played on the soccer field, and in the case of a tie, “Sudden Death” will be used. The champions of this league will play against the faculty on October 17. They will also com- pete in a round robin tourna: ment at Capitol Campus (com- petition against winners from the otherCommonwealthCampuses). PIZZA STEAKS — HOAGIES Media, Pa.
