Score a Triumph at Famed Long Beach Club. 
The tournament of the Long Beach, N. Y., Gun Club, Sept. 25 - 27 , attracted a big field of amateur trap 
shooters, including many of the best known clay bird smashers in the country. Mr. Barton Lewis stayed 
over in the East after the Westy Hogan shoot to attend this event, and lived up to his reputation gained 
at the 1913 Grand American, where he won the Amateur Championship of the U. S. with a score of 
195 ex 200, from 18 yds. At Long Beach, under extraordinarily difficult conditions, Mr. Lewis won:—

Hudson G C. 
Jersey City, N. J., Oct. 5. —The fine weather this 
morning' brought out a good attendance at the traps of 
the Hudson Gun Club, twenty shooters taking part in 
the day’s program. High gun honors went to J. E. 
Smith, who snuffed out 90 per cent, of his targets. 
Ben Beyersdoft was the runner-up with 87 per cent, to 
his credit, with D. D. Engle, who has not had a try at 
the bluerocks for several months, was third with 85 per 
cent. 
The day was an ideal one for target shooting, and it 
looked like old times to see so many of our old regu¬ 
lars get in the game again after the long summer season, 
and shows that the Hudson's traps will be as popular 
as ever the coming winter. 
The next shooting date is Oct. 19. Everybody is 
welcome to shoot over our traps, so bundle up your 
gun and take a run out and see us. The Turnpike car 
from the Pennsylvania Ferry to the west side of the 
Hackensack River bridge will get you to the right place 
to shoot bluerocks, with a good “bunch” of shooters.
