Like other schools, the Mount Pleas- ant institution had a team of ten boys firing, but only the five best scores were consldered by the National Rifle Association in determining a winner. The target was a three-eighths-inch bulls-eye at fifty feet, and each con- testant fired twenty rounds. Those responsible for Central's victory were M. H. Stow, team captain; R. Hart- shorn, T. D. Gatchel, J. W. Crockett and T. H. Rider, who scored 200 each. Other members of the team, who made 199 each, were W. Everett, J. R. Greeley, F. W. Artois, A. H. Veitch and G. A. Ninas. The team was developed and coach- ed by O. M. Shriver of the Marine Corps.

It's a fine record that Pitts- burgh has made with its pitchers, and to the hurlers choruses of praise are due, because the Pirates have not been batting any too praise are due, because the Pirates have not been batting any too freely. | Some very consevative base ball critics, with years of knowledge and experience, have said that it is iggpossible tc win & major league pennant with young pitchers assuming so large a part of the burden. They may be right. There is no major league pennant won to date for 1921, but there has been such a remarkable showing by the young pitchers of the Pittsburgh club that it is time to get it recorded before they “blow” and spoil it all. If they don’t collapse, so much the better for Pittsburgh. At the head of the Pittsburgh plich- ing clan is Cooper, very much a vet- eran, who is having a regular satin- oy Rile 115K FOR WESTOVERS Must Play Good Base Ball to Win Majority of Seven Contests Remaining on List.
