.22 CALIBER AUTOMATIC RIFLE 
To keep the eye and trigger finger in harmony and the holding 
muscles firm during the off season, there is nothing better than 
practice with a .22 caliber. A.nd there is lots of fun to be had, 
too, with one of these rifles, especially if it is a Winchester 
Automatic. This wonderful little rifle is in a class by itself when 
it comes to pleasure and sport. The use of it develops accuracy 
of aim when shooting rapidly, an accomplishment essential to 
success in hunting big game. If you will get your dealer to show 
you one of these rifles, you will surely have a hankering for one.

Larchmont Y. C. 
Larchmont, N. Y.—The all-day shoot and annual club 
championship of the Larchmont Yacht Club took place 
on April 30, at their beautiful grounds, at Larchmont- 
on-the-Sound. It was indeed a busy day for the club 
shooters and the visitors from other clubs. 
The morning program consisted of an event at 50 
targets, shot in sections of 25 targets each, for three 
prizes, the first prize being a 14-k. gold watch; the 
second prize a sterling silver cup, and the third prize 
a cut-glass dish. 
With two 24s, Frank B. Stephenson, of the Crescent 
Athletic Club, topped the list and took the watch. Fred. 
A. Hodgman, of the New York Athletic Club, was sec¬ 
ond with 47, getting the only straight of the round. 
There were five 46s for third prize, and it was agreed 
to shoot that tie off in the third event. George Piercy 
took the trophy on a 24, Spotts,_ as usual, getting a 23. 
The afternoon program consisted of four 25-target 
events, with a prize for the high gun in each; entrance 
the price of the targets. George Piercy, Fred Von 
Deeston, Fred Hodgman and Gus Lembeck each scored 
24, and by putting in another 24, Piercy took the prize, 
Lembeck and Hodgman each making 23s in the follow¬ 
ing event. J. H. Hoyt made a straight in the next event 
and won a watch. 
Hodgman and Schauffler, of the New York Athletic 
Club, went straight in the third event, and Schauffler 
repeated in the last event—and had it all alone. He 
took the last two prizes, a solid gold pin with gems, and 
a sterling silver and Venetian glass vase. Each of the 
first prizes were valued at $25. 
In the last 100, though Piercy was shooting in very 
good form, the straight which Hodgman got in the next 
to the last round put him in just one target to the good 
at the end, he having scored 48 out of his last 50 tar¬ 
gets to 46 for Piercy. The high honors in the 100 and 
the high honors for the day were decided in the last 50 
targets. Hodgman won both, his grand total being 142 
to 140 for Piercy. With an almost unbroken string of 
23s, R. L. Spotts amassed a total of 139 and won third 
place in the program. Frank Stephenson stood fourth 
with 138. 
Each string of 25 was figured as a sweepstakes event. 
There was an optional sweep on the last 100, and this 
had the boys striving to their utmost, as the pots were 
very nice and the straights paid pretty well, and the 
optional, which was apportioned to the high guns 
amounted to almost $100 all told. 
The club championship was decided in the last 100 
targets of the program. As already stated above, Spotts 
never faltered, but it remained for Tommy Lenane to 
be the one to hunt him home the closest. At the end 
the totals were 93 to 91 in favor of Spotts, with W. J. 
Elias and Stuart Scott next with 90. Elias broke 45 
out of each 50, while Scott got 46 out of the first and 44 
out of the last 50. 
There was one shooter from Willimantic, Conn., Harry 
L. Edgarton, and four shooters from Bridgeport. 
During the afternoon the Commodore, Mr. Richards, 
sailed into the bay in his flagship, which was duly 
saluted with the club pennant, and thus he followed the 
example set by Commodore Marshall last year when the 
latter came from Providence in his flagship to attend 
the annual dinner. 
The several trophies which have been in competition 
during the season were shot for for the last time, and 
Dr. W. B. Short was long on the Baudoine prize and 
the April cup events, and annexed them as his own; 
while J. G. Batterson took the Collins trophy and the 
accumulation cup went to R. L. Spotts, this being the 
second time this season he has won an accumulation 
prize. 
The day was rounded out with the annual dinner and 
an illustrated lecture by Dugmore, the African camera 
artist. The scores tell the story in figures:

Montclair, N. J., April 30.—Five events, two for 
practice and three for trophies, were run off to-day. 
In event 3, sharp left-quarterers with special handicaps, 
Winslow won out with the low score of 21. 
J. C. Atwater was the winner of the fifth leg for the 
April cup (scores of event 4 and 5 combined) with a
