Fort Pitt Won Second Match in Pennsylvania State Rifle League The second match of the Penn sylvania League was shot during the last two weeks In June, Fort Pitt easily winning this match. Each club increased their teams' scores by an average of about 10 points over those of the first match.

P. H. Dlllman was the star of the shoot by scoring 145, having a pos sible at 200 yards rapid fire and a total of 95 on the slow fire. Dr. Waugaman of Fort Pitt also scored a possible at 200. Dillman led for Fort Pitt with 145, Unger for Har rlsburg with 137, Essick for Read ing with 136, and Espenshade for P. R. R.-Keystone with 135.
