The men are using a pis- |tol range at Stock Island through jthe cooperation of the Key West Gun Club. Yesterday, they went through a jrapid fire course which included the so-called “fast draw.” Officer Harry Lee Baker led the field as ‘usual. Next in line came Officers R. L. James and Mario Santana.
