The Individual Championship of Metropolitan Clubs 
held April 1st, under the auspices of the Montclair Gun Club, was won by the popular amateur, 
"Kelly” (Mr. G. K. Kouwenhoven), who scored 95 °Jo and took the $100 cup from 160 other 
skilled contestants. J. H. Hendrickson broke 91%, taking third place and a $35 cup. Both

V. M. C. NITRO CLUB SHELLS 
In the hotly contested 5 men team match, the Bergen Beach Club Team tied on 435 ex 500 
with New York A. C. On the shoot-off Bergen Beach easily won out. Four of the winning 
team used U. M. C. Arrow or Nitro Club steel lined shells. 
The above comprise all the main honors. Each man shot U. M. C. shells from choice, 
without prejudice or policy. They are the shells that won eight out of ten Interstate Handicaps 
in 1907 and all of the important events so far in 1908.
