14, b W.U. GIRLS AGAIN RIFLE CHAMPIONS Markswomen Defeat Mary- land Team-—Helen Prentiss ; . Makes Perfect Score. | George Washington University marks- | Wwomen, who hold the intecollegiate' N. R. A. rifle championship for 1929, added another laurel to their crown yesterday by defeating the University of Maryland co-eds, runners-up in the | recent intercollegiate match, 496 to 486, | in a shoulder-to-shoulder encounter ;.’;"1? on the Colonial range in Corcoran | all. | Helen Prentiss scored the only per- | fect score of the match. The five count- ing scores on each team were: George | ‘Washington—Helen Prentiss, 100; Ver- | na Parsons, 99; India Bell Corea, 99; | Marjorie Leighey, 99; Roberta Wright, | 99. Maryiand—Hazel Kreider, captain, 99; Felisa Jenkins, 98; Clemencia | Gause, ; Elizabeth Garber, 96; Mary Murray, 96 | Neither Margaret Mitchell, the re-| cently crowned individual collegiate champion and the mainstay of the Ma- ryland team, nor Helen Taylor, captain of the Colonials and a close second to Miss Mitchell for national honors, scored counting targets yesterday. ‘They were forced to fire last and the strain told on them. Miss Mitchell and Miss Taylor both recorded 595 in the national intercollegiates, but Miss Mitchell's last stage was higher, giving her the title. For the past three years G. W. co-eds have had a remarkable record on the range. Two years ago they won the national intercollegate title with a total of 2991, said to be the highest score ever made by a woman's team, if not the highest by any collegiate group of either sex. Last year they captured the cham- plonship again, and made it three straight this season. Close Rivals. Maryland and G. W. are the closest riavls for all honors in the rifle range. Each year the team and individual championships boil down to a struggle between these two, which are conceded to be the strongest women's teams in the country. Maryland held the cham- pionship s al years ago, but has been nosed out ever since by the Buff and Blue shots, who scored a 30-point mar- gin this year, collecting 74 out of a possible 3,000 to Maryland' 44. Mar- garet Mitchell of Maryland was the in- dividual high point scorer in this affair as well as in the individuals. Both teams have completed their interteam schedules now, but have yet to finish firing in_the dbt-and-circle matc! he intercollegiate range fra- ternity event, which was won last sea- son by George®Washington. No team has scored over the Colonials for two years. This season they have defeated other university teams in tele- graphic encounters, as follows: Gettys- 494 to 408; University of Penn- nia, 495 to 464: Carnegie Tech, 493; University of Washington, Penn State and Tarleton College by forfeit. Considerable credit for their excellent Photo of the George Washington University girls’ rifle team, which defeated the co-ed team from the University of Maryland yesterday afternoon by the score of 496 to 486.

SUIT SEEKS RIGHT - IN NAMMOTH CAVE Heirs of Original Owner- of Property Ask Funds as Park Plans Advance. Heirs of the former owner of the ‘a- mous Mammoth Cave in Kentucky filed ‘|suit in the District of Columbia Su- preme Court yesterday to enjoin the Mammoth Cave trust estate from per- mitting the Mammoth Cave National Park Association either taking control :1!0 l:heruve;? or d;{im;ldlgz condemna- proceedings which have been in- stituted by the association. i B ‘The suit was filed by various heirs of Dr. John Cooghan, who was a young physician of Louisville, and in" 1832 bought the cave, which is 90 miles south of that city. The, heirs reside in Cali- fornia, New York and Massachusetts, and altogether own 11/36 interest in the cave. Respondents in Case. ‘The suit is directed against Mrs. Violet Blair' Janin of this city, Mrs. Mary Jesup Sitgreaves of Chestnut Hall, Mass., and others. Mrs. Janin and Mrs, Sitgreaves are two of the trustees of the Mammoth Cave trust estate, The park association was incorporat- ed in 1925 for the purpose of soliciting the funds, if necessary, to purchase the cave and adjoining property for the es- tional Park. The heirs who brought the lin and Laws that they are not antagon- showing this season is due to the Colo- nials’ two student coaches, Betty Clark and Helen Prentiss, who have had a double responsibility, which they have carried well. It might be said that a coach of a rifie team is not an instruc- tor, but one who coaches or directs the rangers' fire on the line. Upon his or her judgment depends to a great ex- tent the accuracy of a team’s per- formance. Maryland's Record.

Action by Congress. According to the bill of complaint, Congress, in 1926, authorized the Sec- retary of Interior to accept on behalf of the United . States the tract of land which includes the cavern when 70,518 acres in the region have been acquired. Various campaigns have been conducted for funds in Kentucky under the direc- tion of the Mammoth Cave National Park Association, the complaint sets forth, and a part of the money neces- sary to ire the Mammoth Cave Na- tional Park has been obtained through solicitations made in various parts of the United States.
