Bottineta G. C. 
Bottineau, N. D., July 18.—Our first annual reg¬ 
istered tournament was held here, was highly successful 
and the visitors were generous in their praise of the 
treatment accorded them by the officers and members of 
the local club. Jim Curran, of Grand Forks, represent¬ 
ing the Remington Arms-U. M. C. Co., cashiered the 
shoot to the entire satisfaction of all, and although he 
shot through all events, every shooter got his money 
before leaving the grounds. The shoot was held under 
the Jack Rabbit system. High gun was J. F. Davis, 
who shot like a Trojan, getting 195 out of 200. H. e! 
Peck was second with 192, while E. D. Lemke filled third 
niche with 190. The for-wads-only shooters didn’t make 
a noise like scoring in this class, high being H. J. Stair 
with 188. Scores:.

Roanoke G. C. 
Roanoke, Va., July 26.—Aside from a holiday shoot, 
one of the largest crowds which has faced the local traps 
this season was present to-day, and with ideal weather 
prevailing, some splendid scores were hung up to the 
credit of the contestants. Much interest is beginning to 
be shown in the approaching State shoot, which is 
scheduled for Sept. 1 and 2, and from all indications 
one of the largest attended State shoots in the history of 
the Association will be held, as many inquiries are being 
received from numerous and distant sources. The man¬ 
agement urges upon all local contestants in the State 
shoot to come out and get into the best possible con¬ 
dition for this classic among' Virginia shooters. 
The weekly trophies offered by the club were won by 
the following members: 
Scratch Class—Dr. Watson first; Jamison, second. 
Class A—Holland first; J. W. Poindexter, second. 
Class B—Cox first; B. T. Fishburne, second. 
Class C — R. T. Fishburne first; Byrd, second.
