I Harrisburg Rifle Club Won the Championship On Saturday the Harrisburg Rifle Club won the third and deciding match of the series of three matches for the rifle club team championship of the neighborhood. The five-man team of the Harrisburg Club scored 216 points to Keystone's 211, at 300 yards, and 22 9 to Keystone's 230, at 500 yards, winning by the scant mar gin of four points, 445-441, out of a possible score of 500 points per team. , The first of the series of three matches was won by the , Keystone Club with a total of fiften pointa> ihe second and third by Harrisburg, with eleven and four points. This makes the total score of each team for the season exactly equal—l3o3- 1303, out of a possible 1,500. In the deciding match of the se ries each man of each team scored ninety per cent, or better at 500 yards. It Is extremely doubtful if there are half a dozen cities in the whole United States that can turn out a ten-man team which, during the excitement of championship competition, can finish with every man averaging ninety per cent, or better. The members of the winning club wish to express their appreciation of tnc courtesy, the spirit of fair pity and clean sportsmanship dis played toward them at all competi tions through ten years of shooting by the members of the P.

It is necessary that funny material In abundance be supplied as a framework on which to drupe a performance. According to the theatrical division of the Commis sion, Kngiish soldiers who had put on several very amusing "stunts" aban doned their attempts to entertain their comrades when the fount of Jcr.es went, dry, and unless a harvest is quickly gathered a shortage of "mirth-provokers" will result in the training camps here. It is planned to reprint the Jokes in what will be called "Uncle Sam's Joke Bulletin," and distribute these at intervals to the dramatic direc tors. All humorous contributions should be sent to Austin Strong, Li brarian Manuscript Division, War De partment Commission on Training Camp Activities, 1520 Broadway, New York Mr. Strong is the author of "The Drums of Oude," one of the first two Rlays given to the government gra tuitously for the use of dramatic di rectors in soldier productions.
