CRELLIN RIFLE TEAM IS
WINNER AT CUMBERLAND
Victory Recalls Feats of clay
makes" of Half Century Ago
Return Match April 20
% CALIBRE RIFLES USED

Forty years ago nationwide atten-
tion was given the record breaking
performances of a great rifle team
from Garrett County, better known as
1.-THE Haymakers," who were in a
class by themselves in this section of
the country. ~ 49,
Old-timers who recall the feats &C.
complished by that great team of
sharpshooters on the range should no
doubt be interested to- learn that Gar
rett county has another crack aggre-
cation of rifle shots in the Youghio-
gheny Rifle Club, of. Crellin, Md,
which made its debut. in Cumberland
on Thursday night and carried off
highest honors in four-team match
with Fort Cumberland Post, Ameri-
can Legion, Company G, National
Guard, both of Cumberland, and Key
ser, West Va, shot on the State Ar
mory range in Cumberland.
Inherited From Ancestors
The result of this match should be
of interest since it is presumed that
the keen Workmanship of the Crellin
artists can be traced back to their an
cestors who had an enyiable reputa-
ton in bygone days. The "Haymak-
ers" team was composed of natives
from Oakland, Crellin and nearby
Garrett county towns and they won
numerous trophies in state, regional
and national rifle meets almost half
century ago.
The four-team match resulted in a
victory for Crellin over American Lee
gion with Company G, third, and Key
ser, fourth. The match was shot with
20 calibre rifles from fifty feet, each
man taking three shots from the
prone, sitting and standing positions.
The results were as follows:

At Crellin April 20
Three of the teams, namely: Amer
lean Legion, Company G and Crellin
will stage a return match on the
Youghiogheny Rifle Club range in
Crellin on Monday, April 20.
The Cumberland Legion teams
scores in that match will count in the
Maryland State match for the Par
ker cup, a three-year trophy, being
offered to the outstanding Legion rifle
team in the State by Major Parker,
who has charge of American Legion
rifle activities. Seven local men will
compete but only the scores of six
will be counted in the official total.

tor. However, when more carefully
studied, is more than that. 1t becomes
almost human, so that one could al
most sense the soul of the character
performing.
The story of the first marionette
runs far back into history. Archeol-
ogists have unearthed small stages
made of ivory and inlaid with precious
stones that are thought to be private
marionette stages of the little Egyp-
tian princesses which they tried to
take with them into the unknown
world.
The Egyptian priests also used a
form of marionette to amaze their
people. The priests of India con-
nected their puppets with their gods.
Puppets of gold were fashioned in the
image of their god, trained birds with
split tongues were placed in the mouth
of the puppet to furnish speech for
them.
In China today the traveller is likely
to come upon children standing be-
fore the booth of an itinerant puppet
Snowman who travels about the coun-
try, stopping wherever he can.
In ancient Greece the puppets per-
formed for the children in the public
square, in the theatre and the adults
presented religious plays where the
gods came to life in these little actors
and were thus kept alive by the myths
of the ancient people.
Rome improved her puppet by her
best authors writing plays. Roman
emperors invited these players with
their puppets dressed in costly cloth
and bedecked with jewels into their
palaces and built expensive theatres
just for this art alone.
With the decline of Rome, went
the marionette, to return with the
early Christians who used the art of
telling the story of Christ and the
characters of the Bible. This art
was banished, because it ceased to be
religious but merely entertaining by
the Council of Trent in 1850.
In France, Spain and in Italy we
find traces of renown won by these ar
fists.
Puppets are not new in America.
Long before the white man came, the
marionettes had a sacred duty to per-
form in the ceremonials of the North
American Indian life. However, dur
ing the building of this new empire
the marionette found no time to amuse
the busy white settler. During Pres
ident Lincoln's sojourn at the White
House they had a marionette theatre
for his son Ted. At present there are
many marionette producers in this
country.
You will enjoy the first puppet
show to be given in the Maryland The
atre on Thursday afternoon and ev-
ening, April 80.
