DRIVERS AND TWISTERS. 
The South End Gun Club will hold a grand tourna¬ 
ment on their grounds, Carsonia Park, Reading, Pa., on 
Saturday, Sept. 6. Program calls for 150 targets. In¬ 
formation will be furnished by Secretary H. J. Melchior,

K 
E. H. Bailey, Secretary Pahquioque Gun Club, 
writes us under date of Aug. 23: “In making out the 
report of the Pahquioque Gun Club’s tournament, which 
was held July 26, it gave F. Clark the credit of the 
long run with 42. This should have been S. W. Put¬ 
nam, as he had a run of 61 straight, the prize being a 
box of cigars from the Ilotel Green. F. G. Clark won 
the long run for club members with 42. I have had 
several inquiries in regard to Clark getting the long 
run with 42, as there were several who made longer 
runs.’’ 1 
Under date of Aug. 25, J. H. Dreher, writes us: 
“On Aug. 12, at the Oceanic Hotel, Wrightsville Beach, 
N. C., the State Association was reorganized with 
the following officers: J. H. Dreher, Wilmington, Pres¬ 
ident; J. B. Pennington, Tarboro, Vice-President, and 
L. Clayton Grant, Wilmington, Secretary. It was de¬ 
cided to hold our 1914 shoot on the beach, where we ex¬ 
pect quite a number of shooters at that time. We ex¬ 
pect to make this shoot to the South what the Westy 
Hogans is to the North.” 
«S 
E. R. Wilbur, President, writes: “The Long Beach 
Gun Club will hold its first annual tournament, Sept. 
25, 26 and 27, at Long Beach, L. I., on the grounds 
of the Hotel Nassau, one of the finest hotels on the 
Atlantic Coast. The tournament will be under the 
personal direction of Jack Fanning, which is an assur¬ 
ance of its success. Program will consist of 150 targets 
each day, three automatic traps being used. Sept. 25, 
the Long Beach championship at 100 targets, will be 
contested, a handsome silver cup going to the winner. 
Sept. 26, the Nassau Hotel trophy. This cup is a 
beauty. Sept. 27, the Metropolitan championship, for a 
massive solid silver and copper cup, beautifully en¬ 
graved and designed. In addition, there will be twenty- 
five merchandise prizes each day, five silver cups going 
to the five high guns for the entire program. Cups 
for ladies, and the president’s silver cup for longest 
straight run during the tournament. This will be a 
shoot long to be remembered, one of the best ever held 
around New York. Programs will be out and mailed 
shortly.”
