Mrs. W.M. Morrison looks to be holding an A or B grade.

D or C Grade, Drew. No checkering on the cheeks. Great picture. I could be wrong about "no checkering".

Mills;
You should have been a nicer nephew to your aunt W.M. Morrison then she might have left you her Parker.

Scott, I don't know what the requirements for the honor are. However, in 1937, she was ninth highest average Lady 16 yard shooter in the country, and the second highest volume Lady shooter among the high average women. Her average in 1937 on 16 yard targets was .9041 on 2400 16 yard targets. In 1938, her .9212 was the eighth highest 16 yard average among U.S. women. She shot target for target with her husband, W.M. Morrison, of San Diego, sometimes shooting a few more than he. She was California Lady Champion in 1938 with a great 192X200 and was California Lady Runnerup in 1939 with 187X200. All with a side by side Parker.
