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:—

Banks sixth. In the fourth event Sindle and Speer were 
again tied with the luck against Speer, while Ed. Smith 
was third, J. E. J. Stanton fourth, S. G. Francisco fifth

a close second with 93 per cent. Scores:

the practice shoot. Jack Fanning was the joy of the 
occasion, he showing ’em how with 43 out of 50. Hutch¬

The weather conditions on Oct. 19 could hardly have 
been worse—a cold, drizzling rain falling all day; but a 
round dozen of the real gunbugs were at the grounds for 
the weekly shoot, and some good work was done. Carr 
and Schreck shot a close race, the former getting a lead 
of one target in the first 50, and the latter having one 
target the best of it in the last half, the result being a 
tie on 91. Supt. Gambell was erratic in his shooting.
