Rose Berns, posing on April 4, 1936 with her rifle, was labeled in the Richards records as the "crack shot of all universities." She posed with her many trophies and medals for marksmanship, including the most recent for the University of Washington varsity rifle team's highest individual score throughout the season. For the past two years she has been a member of that team. Miss Berns began shooting at the tender age of nine, following in her father's footsteps. At the time of this photograph, she was training as a nurse at Swedish Hospital. (Bremerton Sun 4/16/1936, pg. 1)
