YALE RIFLEMEN
DEFEAT OXFORD
(eY PETER J. CARNEY

Editor National Sport Syndicate.
Small bore rifle shooting is to Eng
lishmen what baseball is to Ameri-
cans: 1t is q sport which the British
have gone into extensively. and sport
In which they thought they excelled
the shooters of all nations.
Then they picked on the United
States. The British kind o. put it over
us a couple of times in competition
for the Dewar trophy, but that was
before we really knew anything about
small bore shooting. In fact we ere
only taking to the game now. When
our shooters get as much shooting
on the small bore ranges as the 3ri-
fish we can shoot against the pick of
the world-and win.
In 1919 the first outdoor competi-
ton for small bore rifles was put on
in the national matches, winding up
with an International match with Eng
land The United States boys put it
all over the British shooters and re-
peated again in 1920. These competi-
tons doomed the small bore sport con-
siderably In this country and the col
leges got into the game. When Yale
formed a rifle team Oxford immediate
ly challenged Old Eli. Yale was new at
the game. Oxford had been at 1t for
many, many years. 1t looked as if Eng
land had a chance to win the first in
ternational collegiate match. But Yale
upheld the United States in wonderful
style The shooters of Old Eli scored
1854 out of a possible 1000, while OK
ford's eight shooters scored only 1901.
At small bore shooting America
looks tnvincible. We won the cham
pionship at this kind Of shooting in
the Olympic games, and there will be
dozens of experts in the United States
five years from now for every one we
have today. A rifle was made for
most of the members of the United
States team that shot IN the interna-
tional match in 1919, known as tie
Winchester .22 calibre bolt action
This rifle has revolutionized the small
bore shooting game In this country.
This rifle was used by the Yale team,
by most of the members of the winning
teams In 1919 and 1920, by the shooters
who won every small bore champion
ship In 1920. This would indicate that
the gun plays an important part in
the matches.
The Oxford team shot with Lee En-
field service rifles equipped with Nor
ris tubes. The position was prone, the
distance rs feet, each shooter firing
go shoots. A year or two ago the col
lege that had a rifle range was cor
sidered exceptional. now most Of the
colleges have ranges. Yale this winter
is shooting matches with Is college
teams.
We have every reason to believe that
if the National Rifle association aid
the American Small Bore league
keeps behind the small bore game. AMI
that the small bore range is kept with
in hailing distance at Camp Perry,
that small bore shooting ranges will
be in every city in the country in an
other year or two.

9 1-2 Inches.

In the second event of the interna-
tional boys hexathlon athletic contest,
Eugene Villar captured first place with
d height of feet 2 1-2 inches. This
s. a record for q 12-year-old boy
weighing not quite so pounds. Villars'
stride was easy and was pretty to
look at.
Forty jumpers started jumping at
10 o'clock this morning with the bar
at feet and 1-2 inch. About Is boys
were left at 1915 when a recess was
called for dinner. At $3.50 the jump
ing started again. When the feet
11-inch mark was reached a good many
of the jumpers had gone the limit, but
four remained to go further. Villar
clearedan Of these heights with his
first jump. the others going over most
1y on their second jump. Billy Hen
bricks cleared the 4 feet 1-2 inch mark
and fell off on the 4 feet inch mark
Three boys still remained to compete
for first honors. Tom Mcclure cleared
the 4 feet / inch bar but failed after
three unsuccessful attempts at a half
inch higher. Only two jumpers were
left. Billy Shepard was rugged In his
form but had a Jump like a frog. vii

2 inch bar easy. Shepard made three
glorious attempts to go over but failed

years.
The last three boys scored the fol-
lowing points:
Villar scored 100 with one inch to
spare. Shepard Just made 100 and

We'll Rosenau in the intermediate
class scored 100 points in the stand

What's New In Motordom.

The 1921 automobile shows an an
nouncements brought forth good
field of starters in the race for auto
supremacy. In addition to the good
old familiar names which have cir
eled the realms of auto either in the
past there are some new ones which
promise to ascend the high attitudes of
favor.
The year 1921 sees such new cars as
the Friend, PARENT, Ace Chrysler,
TIeine Vo1ox, Sheridan, Grey Light,
Premocar, Duesenberg, Kenworthy and
Northway.
The PARENT is new principled car
of the air cooled typ. The Ace was
distributed on the Pacific coast in
1920 but is broadening its field from
It's manufacturing center of Ypsilanti,
Mich. The ChrysIer Motor company,
of Elizabeth, N. J.. is out with the
Chrysler. The Heine-Volox is a San
Francisco product of high qualifica-
tions, as is testified that it sells for
the humble sum of $4,000. The Sher-
idan made by Sheridan Motors at
Muncie. Ind. is getting into its stride.
The Gray Light car is made out in
Longmont, Colorado and sells at low
figure that bespeaks the cycle-car of
past days.
The Premocar, manufactured at
Birmingham, Ala, has both the Magic
Six and special Duesenberg. The new
Uuesenberg pleasure car with eight lin
arrow and the four wheel brakes was
a flash at the shows. The Kenworthy
comes from Mishawal1a, Ind, the town
just around the bend from South Bend,
while the Northway, made at Natick,
Mass. blossomed forth with a model
at the New York show.
Like Tennyson's Brook" the time
tried makes an models, however, seem
to be going on and on forever. Still
this installation of new life is an asset
to the industry which should mean
better cars all around and new effort
and competition are the things which
instiE quality in both old and new.

EhetNssR AND DIRT TRACE
RACE DRIVER.

Dear Larry What temperature
should be registered by car while at
a rate of 20 miles per hour?-D. f.
Answer: Most systems should reg
lister about IL to Is degrees.
Dear Stone:-Do you think the 1921
auto race season will be as great as
in the past? Are road races popular?
e. H. B.
Answer: Present indications point
to big season on the race courses.
There will undoubtedly be as many
speedway events as usual and many
more professional dirt track meets
than heretofore. The state and dis
trict! fairs are including dirt track
racing as a component part of their
programs. Road racing of national i'm
portance is not at the peek 1t used to
be. There must be some source of
revenue for promotion of auto races
and this is most difficult with the US
ual road race, where the course is
large and the interest not as apt to
be keen as where the competing races
pass the stands frequently.
Dear Larry:-Do you think the cleo
trict has future either as pleasure
or commercially. H. N.
Answer: The electric. while con-
fined to certain limit, is unitarian
even above the gas car in some re-
spects, but mostly adapted to the larg-
er city and not the country use. Tour
ing trips, ever increasing In popular
tty, call for the gas car. Electric
trucks are used in some of the larger
cities by big firms with good success.

King Toto. If you please.
Sounds like this king reigns after mid

night gowns are in bed.
IT'S so.
Toto cares not for veal. He prefers
chickens"
Naughty but deliciously nice-that
sums up Toto a comedy Of Partisan
life, as presented last night at the Murat
before an audience exclusively of Shriners
and their friends after New York and
Chicago have laughed at the affairs of
Toto.
Toto" is a classic in impish fun,
wee bit rapid, If you so desire it, but
spicy morsel-a bubble, sparkle on the
horizon of the world Of entertainment. 1t
will be relished by those who are old
enough to smile with their intellect
Toto" will please those who like now
and then dash of near deviltry on their
menu OF entertainment. Toto" is tan
taiizing sauce for the goose. (No per-
sonal reference, | assure you)
IL you sleep in fannels, my dear the
clever play will not appeal to or amuse
you, but II one has a wee bit of racing
blood In one-well, 'Toto" will be
harmless but a completely diverting ex-
| cursion into the land of charming enter
talnment. I would hardly recommend
this show to youngsters land there are
certain entertainments masquerading I'M
| der the false color of being propaganda
| that youngsters have atteended. but
those who are old enough to distinguish
between fun and lewdness. between cheap
ness and vulgarity-then Toto" will be
hailed as a gem in comedy as long as
Leo Ditrichstein and his matchless com
pany continues in this vehicle of merry
chuckles
In the clever hands of Mr. Dftrichstein
this comedy is so tempered with the
touch of suaye and ingratiating manners
that 1t becomes harmless. ! would fear
to think what this play would be with
out the polished art of Mr.. Ditrichstein
and his excellent cast You can trust
Mr., Ditrichstein as his infection and his
manners are always polished and clever.
Mr.. Ditrichstein has made himself IA
nous in the role Of a great lover" and
in this comedy he is great" as well as
a lover. True Toto prefers chicken to
veal and he tells you so. But it is in
the telling Of this merry yarn OF Pa
rlsian life which has made this comedy
one Of the greatest if not the greatest
success that this distinguished actor has
had in his career.
The play opens with Toto entertaining
girls from the ballet and a few others
His daughter, Louise de Tillois, is there
