FOREST AND STREAM. 
CKampionship 
of Metropolitan Clubs 
held April 3d, at Montclair, N. J., was a splendid success and included among 
its contestants nearly every expert shot in the vicinity of New York. 
U. M. C. Arrow and Nitro Club Shells 
were, of course, the popular loads. The winners invariably used them. Jack 
Martin was first amateur with 95 per cent. G. Kouwenhoven second, with 94 
per cent., and Dr. Gleason, who ran over from Boston, broke 91 per cent., and 
they all pinned their faith to steel-lined U. M. C. Shells. Billy Heer took 
professional honors with 93 per cent. In a word, the “Metropolitans” believed 
in U. M. C. and won with U. M. C.
