Ensley G. C. 
The first registered tournament of the Ensley Gun 
Club, of Ensley, Ala., was pulled off under the most 
trying weather conditions of any shoot in the South 
during the season. On practice day the weather was 
very dark and threatened rain throughout the afternoon. 
A bunch of shooters, however, braved the threatening 
conditions and journeyed to the grounds and were 
hindered very little by the rain. Mrs. Garl led the field 
on practice day with the very good score of 91 out of 
100, which was remarkable work under such conditions. 
E. M. Cornwell was in second place with two targets be¬ 
hind. Other scores were: B. F. Allen 88, P. B. Plum¬ 
mer 93, O. L. Garl 83. 
On the day of the tournament there were heavy 
rains and it was extremely dark in the morning. The 
rain, however, ceased at about 11 o’clock, when the first 
squad was called to score. There was continued shoot¬ 
ing throughout the day, as it took a great deal of 
hustling to get the program finished between showers. 
The dark clouds hung low and kept the scores down 
below the average. Walter Huff managed to go out with 
260 out of his 275 shot at, closely followed by Elbert 
Holt. Among the amateurs G. M. Key led the field 
with 253, closely followed by E. M. Cornwell with 252. 
The race between the three high amateurs was most 
exciting, especially Messrs. Key and Cornwell, who shot 
consistently throughout the day, and also the good 
shooting of Garl near the end of the program, who for 
a time looked like he would overtake the leaders. Garl 
got a poor start in the early events. 
One of the surprises of the day was the dove lunch 
served by Mrs. Garl, consisting of birds, sandwiches, 
coffee and cakes. 
Y. B. Lecroy, president of the Ensley Gun Club, 
gave a good account of himself for a beginner. 
Tom Cassity several times threatened to shoot high 
by making straights. 
P. B. Plummer was shooting a different gun. His 
old one is at the factory, having a few more high 
averages put in. 
George Hillman was delighted that he held up his 
average so well. 
Charley Perry shot low, so his company could carry 
off all honors—Huff with high average and Perry with 
low. 
James Hillman did not get out until late. 
Guy Ward came too late to finish the program. He 
usually wins high in Birmingham.

Chicago, Ill., Sept. 20.—Although he weather was 
quite disagreeable, it being cold and at times a drizzling 
rain falling, a number of the shooters came out to our

second place. Goode and Northcott tied for first in the

cold and threatening rain, which probably kept some
