Missouri State Toarnamcnt. 
The Missouri State Game and Fish Protective Association held 
its twenty-fourth annual convention and tournament in the city 
of St. Louis this week. It has been a good week and a good meet- 
ing throughout. With an attendance running steadily above the 
half-hundred mark, and this representing largely the element of 
bona fide amateurs of the middle West, a good strong programme, 
well managed and everybody interested in the game, there has 
been "somcthin' doin' " in the full sense of the term, since the 
firing of the first practice gun, on Monday morning. 
The tournament was again held at Dupont Park, under the able 
auspices of the St. Louis Shooting Association, and the direct 
management of Air. David Elliott. 
Live birds were shot over the Fulford traps, which worked, as 
they always do, most excellently; and two magautraps put out 
bluerocks at a pace that quite satisfied the shooters in that 
direction. 
Tuesday, May 28. 
After devoting Monday to practice work, the boys began earnest 
work on Tuesday morning in the Missouri State four-man team 
contest at live birds. The pigeons were not especially fast, but 
there were enough good ones_ to make the work interesting, and 
the high score of 59 out of 60~ made by the St. Louis team, com- 
posed of Griesedieck, Smith, Denning and Field, is well worthy 
of remark. Ti'U teams participated in this contest, which occu- 
pied much of the day. An informal target programme was also 
shot, consisting of ten 15-bird events. The scores in the team 
shoot follow:

Wednesday, May 29, 
Weather conditions were the best to-day, and excellent work 
was the result at both targets and live birds. The State and 
Interstate individual championship races occupied most of the 
day on the live-bird grounds, but the target end ran along 
smoothly, with a total of sixty-nine entries in target events. The 
Republic cup contest, scheduled as the regular event for the day, 
was not begun until 5 P. M., and only four squads were shot up 
to the tenth round. The scores:

There were in all ninety-two entries in the target events to-day. 
It being Decoration Day, the regular attendance was swelled by 
many local shooters, who chose to pass the holiday at the park.

Friday, May 3t. 
Features of the programme to-day were the conclusion of the 
contest for the Republic cup and shooting off ties for State and In- 
terstate trophies. The birds averaged very good, and there were 
tio straight scores added to yesterday's list. It took until almost 
noon to close this event, w'hen the contest for the W. J, Lemp 
Brewing Company's amatexir championship trophy was imme- 
diately called. This, however, was only half finished, as work was 
interrupted to permit of shooting off ties from Tuesday. For the 
Missouri State championship solid gold medal Griesedieck and 
Little had a spirited contest up t.o the eighteenth bird, when the 
latter retired on a fast outgoer. 
There were five ties in the Interstate medal contest. De Lotig 
lost his first, Daniels his fifth, Griesedieck his tenth, and Little 
his thirteenth bird,_ leaving the field and victory to that splendid 
veteran, Capt. J. Sedam, of Denver, Colo. The Captain shot in 
splendid form, and well earned his laurels. 
The target programme was continued, with an entry of fifty, 
Baker winning the day's average with but 3 lost, while Money, 
De Long and day were each but 1 behind. The scores:

Saturday, June I. 
This was the last, though not least imponant, day of the big' 
meet of the Missouri Association for 1901. Work was begun early 
on tlie conclusion of scores for the Lemp medal. This being 
cleared up, a 10-bird open sweep was shot, with twenty entries. 
The programme was cleaned up by 2 P. M.. when the shoot-off for 
the Republic cup was called. Dave Elliott has selected a fast lot 
of bi.-ds for this event, and the lot was a very good one. Chase 
and Collins weix the first to lose, each' going out on right-quarter- 
ing drivers in the seventh round. Hubby lost a hard bird just 
over the fence in the twelfth round. Burnside and Riehl then 
continued to the eighteenth round, when the latter undershot a 
left-quartering towerer from No, 1 trap, and Burnside won by kill- 
ing his bird nicely. 
The ties in the Lemp trophy contest were then called. It proved 
an event of much interest, the race naiTowing down m the 
thirteenth round to Griesedieck and Mermod. These two deter- 
mined and very competent St. Louisians continued to the -sixty- 
sixth round, when Mermod lost ji very fast bird, leaving Griese- 
dieck the winner, It was a beautiful race, and a credit to bo^l^
