National Rifle and Pistol championships, one of
the great but not popularity recognized sports
competitions in the country
This is the only sports event that is financed
by an annual appropriation from Congress. In
1940, the peak year, Congress appropriated more
than 100000. but this apparently is no time to
ask why John q. Public pays the freight for the
shooters. In return. the War Department and the
National Rifle Association estimate that 100000
shooters were trained in 1910 directly from the
knowledge acquired at Camp Perry, and at 81
head this Is considered cheap training
The NRA likewise estimates that through Its
junior training program approximately half

ORIGIN OF BASEBALL

While baseball as we know it, is a
sport of comparatively recent develop
ment, game in which tossed ball was
batted with a rude club, has been traced
back to the 18th century in Europe, The
present American game was probably an
outgrowth of that of town ball'', PLAYED
in New England from about 1850, in
which the runs were made around posts
set in the ground. instead Of bases,
The first code Of baseball rules was
formulated by the Knickerbock club Of
New York in 1886, the first match game
was played the following year, and the
first gate money series of games took place
at Hoboken in 1858. The development of
the game was checked by the Civil War,
