LT. HUGH W. WYLIE RANGE AT CONVERSE HALL In 1875 the Ohio State University shooting facilities were at what is now the Ohio State Fair Grounds. Since that time the shooting range has been in several locations on campus. In 1966 the present range in Converse Hall was dedicated by President Novice G. Fawcett in honor of Lt. Hugh W. Wylie.

Lt. Wylie, of Circleville, Ohio, was a graduate of Ohio State and a member of the Army ROTC. He served with the 82nd Airborne Division in North Africa, Italy and Holland. On Sept. 17, 1944, Lt. Wylie was killed near Arheim, Holland in the battle that inspired the book and movie A Bridge to Far.

The Lt. Hugh W. Wylie Range is a 20-point range set for 50-foot and 10-meter shooting with respective .22 caliber ammunition and preci- sion air guns. An elevator was placed in service in 2000 to accomodate handicapped students and competitive shooters.
