Frank Glass In Great Form. 



The first match of the series of three between Frank Class, of 

 Pine Brook, N. J., and Fred. Lumbreyer, of the Larchmont li a<-bt 

 Club, drew a fair-sized audience to "Old South Paw's" Marion 

 trap grounds on Jan. 28. and it is safe to say that while some were 

 disappointed others were completely astonished at the outcome 

 of the* match. A year ago, when Class was down to steady practice, 

 nearly everybody with an eye to form in pigeon shooting was 

 willing to grant that he outclassed Lumbreyer. From the spring 

 of 1891, bowever, until a couple of months ago, Class was practi- 

 cally out of the ranks, and did no smooth-bore work beyond an 

 occasional day's shooting in the field. As a consequence he was 

 supposed to be compn.ritively "rusty," while Lumbreyer, on the 

 other hand, has been doing considerable sweepstake shooting din - 

 ing the above period, and was supposed to be. in good shooting 

 form. The outcome of the match showed that the conditions we>e 

 reversed, and that Class possessed the happy faculty of quickly 

 catching a winning gait, while Lumbreyer as suddenly lost bis. 

 From the very outset the yachtsman was outshot. Class's form 

 being first class both in the use of his first and second tarreK 



FRANK CLASS. 



Lumbrever had the luck of the birds from start to finish, and his 

 misses, as a rule, were of comparitively easy birds. The day was 

 cold and raw, with a st.iffish breeze blowing across the line of 

 traps from the left. The birds a« a whole can be classed as a fair 

 lot, although they should have flown very much better with the 

 wind than they did. The match opened at 2 o'clock. Neat Apgar, 

 of Plainfield, being chosen as referee; E. Jones, of Newark, trap 

 puller; Jacob Pentz and C. H. Townsend, scorers. 



Class went to the score first and quickly piled two charges of 

 shot into a fairly good lef t quarterer. Lumbreyer followed with 

 the grassing of a circling right-incomer. Class lost his second 

 bird, a fast left-quartering driver. His sixth was a hot right- 

 quartering driver, killed with a good second barrel. His eighth 

 was an ugly right-quarterer. very fast, but his first stopppd its 

 career in splendid shape. His tenth was an awfully vicious cir- 

 cler that was grassed with a quick double of which Brewer would 

 have been proud. His fifteenth, a very fast circler to the right, 

 caught two full loads of shot but concluded to fall dead outside 

 the fence. His nineteenth was a very fast right-quartering driver, 

 stopped in brilliant style with a quick first. Lumbreyer's eighth, 

 a wicked right-quarterer, called for a brilliant second that called 

 forth a round of applause. His sixteenth, which he lost, was 

 another "hummer," circling to the right and carrying a double 

 load toward the town of Marion. His twenty-fifth was also a hot 

 one. and although hard hit did not stop until it received a fusilade 

 from the "bushwhackers" outside the fence. Score on the first 

 round 23 each. 



On the second round Class lost his third bird, an ugly zig-zag- 

 ger that was hard hit but carried the loads over the fence and 

 fell under the guns of the out-rangers. Lumbreyer kept up 

 the goid work by losing his third bird, a rather cumbersome 

 flyer. His fourth was a fast right-quartering driver that called 

 for a beautiful second at long range. His second was a circling 

 driv r that scaled the fence, as did his eleventh, a circling driver, 

 very fast, and his fifteenth a left-quartering driver. His six- 

 teenth was an ugly left-incomer and was grassed with a fine sec- 

 ond. Class's seventeenth was a very nasty circler to the left and 

 Prank was obliged to put in a long second, which did the act in 

 line style. IPs twentieth joined the pots of the out-rangers. On 

 the twenty-!! rst. he caught a tartar of a right-quartering driver 

 and grassed it with his second at full 80yds. Score on the first 

 half, Oliss 46, Lumbreyer 44. 



On the. third round Lumbreyer's fifth, a left-quartering driver, 

 went over the hills and far away, as did his ninth and sixteenth. 

 Class lost his eleventh and twentieth, the latter falling tiead- out 



of bounds. His seventh was a very fast left-quartering driver 

 that cariied two loads almost to the fence. His eighteenth was 

 another of the same kind and direction, and called for a good 

 second at long range. Lumbreyer put in a tine first on his four- 

 teenth, a fast left-quartering driver, and had to tiBe a long second 

 on his twentieth and twenty-fourth, both very fast right- quarter- 

 ing drivers. On the end of the third round Class had killed 69 to 

 Lumbreyer's 66, and everybody conceded the defeat of the yacht 

 club's representative, who was steadily losing form. 



On the last quarter of the race Lumbreyer bad but two nr three 

 birds that could be called at all hard, while Class had a number 

 of "screamers." Lumbreyer lost his second, a right-quartering 

 driver, and his eleventh, a. right incomer, which fell dead out oi 

 bounds. His thirteenth was a fast, right incomer, killed in good 

 style with his second. His eighteenth was a fast rigbt-quarteruiss 

 driver, killed with a good first, and his twentieth, same direction 

 of flight, called for a fine second. Class's seventh was a hot right- 

 quartering driver, killed with a good second at 50yds,; ninth ami 

 tenth, same direction, were both grassed by gord seconds. His 

 twelfth was an awfully fast bird, same direction as above, which 

 carried a double load almost to the fence. His fourteenth was a 

 fust righi-quarleier; twenty-first a bad circling driver, killed by 

 a clever first, and his twenty-fourth, a. right-quartering driver, 

 very fast. He knocked down his twenty-five straight, the match 

 ending with the fine score of 94 kills for Class and £9 for Lum- 

 breyer,
