At the Zettler ,22cal. rifle tournament. New York city, 
March 11-18, both the popularity and the superior shoot¬ 
ing qualities of Peters ammunition were clearly demon 1 
strated. There were 52 entries in the 100-shot cham¬ 
pionship match, of whom 35 used Peters Semi-Smokeless 
cartridges. Mr. Harry M. Pope won third place with 
the excellent score of 2468; Mr. M. Baal, seventh place, 
2463; Mr. W. Keim, ninth, 2461, and Mr. Louis Buss, 
tenth, 2457. Mr. Louis P. Ittel tied for first place jn 
the ring target match with five perfect scores of 75. 
Mr. Louis Buss won the Zimmerman trophy match with 
a score of 77. Mr. T. H. Keller, Sr., made the greatest 
number of bullseyes, 68; also a 10-degree bull in the 
general bullseye match, winning' third place. In this 
match Mr. Gus Zimmerman was second with a 9^-degree 
bull, and he was also second in the U. M. C.-Remington 
bullseye match with a 7% degree bull. From this it will be 
quite 'apparent that Peters Semi-Smokeless ammunition 
still holds the pre-eminent place that it has occupied 
for the past fifteen years.
