tying with Mr. L. J. Miller, of Brook¬ 
lyn, N. Y., who scored 100 at 50 yards, 
98 at 100 yards and 49 at 200 yards. 
However, Mr. Webster won the tie by 
virtue of the fact that he had the pos¬ 
sible score at the longest distance, which 
is the rule for deciding ties in a com¬ 
petition where there is more than one 
distance. The 1922 winner was Mr. 
John W. Hession, of New York, with a 
score of 247. 
In the afternoon of July 3d the east¬ 
ern small bore team championship 
match was fired over the same course 
as the individual match. There are 
four competitors to each team, the 
team possible score being 1,000. This 
competition produced some excellent 
shooting and it was not until the last 
shot was fired that the winner was 
known. The combination of excellent 
shooting and team work enabled the 
Mahwah Rifle Club, of Mahwah, N. J., 
to score a total of 976 out of the 1,000 
points. The team to make second place 
was the Manhattan Rifle and Revolver 
Club, of New York City, Team No. 1, 
with a score of 970. The University of 
Pennsylvania team was third with 963. 
The 1922 winner was the National Cap¬ 
ital Rifle & Revolver Club, Washing¬ 
ton, D. C., with the score of 972. 
The entire day of the Fourth of July 
was reserved for the Palma small bore 
team match, and the occasion was cele¬ 
brated in the good old-fashioned style 
by the Frankford Arsenal Rifle Club 
winning the match with a record score 
of 888 out of the possible 1,000. The 
Arlington Rifle and Pistol Club was 
second with 884, and the Remington 
Rifle Club team third with 878. The 
high score last year was 882, made by 
the Manhattan Rifle and Revolver 
Assn., New York City. 
It remained with Mr. H. J. Wood, 
captain of the Remington team to re¬ 
cord a new world’s record for the Palma 
course by placing all of his forty-five 
record shots and all but one of his 
sighting shots in the bullseye, clean 
acioss the range. This gave him a 
score of 225x225, which constitutes a 
new record in the small bore rifle shoot¬ 
ing and a record which, of course, can 
never be beaten. 
The individual grand aggregate, 
which is composed of the Palma indi¬ 
vidual, the eastern small bore individu¬ 
al and the Spencer matches, was won 
by Mr. R. H. Mc-Garity, of Washington, 
D. C., with a score of 563 out of a pos¬ 
sible 575. Mr. L. Theo. Everett, of 
Mahwah, N. J., made the same score 
but was outranked. The winner of 
last year’s grand aggregate was Mr. 
John W. Hession, of New York, with a 
score of 559.

Only 
Never before has it been possible to buy a 
first-class, made-to-order rifle here in the 
United States. Hoffman guns, built under 
the direct supervision of Frank L. Hoffman, 
are the first and only real rifles ever made 
to order in America. Their beauty and dis¬ 
tinction are emphatic—they become real 
heirlooms. Those who actually know un¬ 
usual firearms will truly appreciate their in¬ 
trinsic value.
