FOREST AND STREAM 
Nov. i, 1913. 
Rotindy Chamberlain ran the office and broke a 95 
score in the Jack Rabbit, which was some stunt. John 
Taylor broke a 9G in the Jack Rabbit. John was not 
feeling well Thursday. Mr. Call, professional, broke 92 
in the Jack Rabbit, and we are always glad to have him 
here. He is a good mixer. 
B. D. McCormick was on for the doing, and had his 
share of the excitement. 
George Kistler has broken the record at Celina with 
a 34-pound catfish. We hope George will get another 
one and bring him down. 
John Wallers was over from Circleville, O., regard¬ 
less of the pumpkin show. Messrs. Crawford and Burrer, 
from Sunbury, were a factor to be figured, but had a 
little bad luck at the finish. Hildinger, from London, 
sent this parting shot: “I.et me known when you have 
another one.’’ Johnny Keifer, of Columbus, had more 
fun than anybody if he didn’t break them all. Charley 
Ward, of Ashville, was the only one from that section, 
and Ashville was well represented. Charlie likes to 
shoot 
Wm. Webster, of Columbus, O., broke 92 in the 
Jack Rabbit shoot, but William said not to publish it, 
as he didn’t want anybody to know that he killed “rab¬ 
bits.” Walter Camp, of Columbus, shot two events, and 
got well starved, when he was called away. Sorry he 
could not stay for the finish. 
A holiday shoot will probably be one of the next 
attractions at the New Columbus Gun Club, at which 
time a very attractive program will be sent out with 
the announcements that will bring a crowd of the 
nimrods to the Capitol City. Fred Shattuck. 
Chicago Gan Club. 
Chicago, Oct. IS.—The following scores were made 
at our regular weekly club shoot on Saturday, Oct. 18. 
A glance at the scores will show that quite a number of 
the shooters were pointing just about right, and put up 
excellent totals. 
Northcott made a total of 94 out of 100 in the two 
16yd. events, Silver running him a close race for the 
honor, as he scored a total of 93. Fred Bills smashed 
99, while Kirkwood broke 15 straight in practice and 
then 95 out of his century. MacLachlan made a splendid 
score from 20yds. in the handicap, breaking 47 out of 50.

The fourth event 
was the distance

The prize for high total went to Mrs. Henry McKay, 
of the Fox Club. 
There were trophies offered on each of the two- 
strings of 25. one for high net, and the other for high 
total, including handicap. These were won bv Mrs. 
Moulton, Fox Gun Club; Mrs. O. B. Clark, Miss M. 
Crossland, and Miss B. V. Carson, of the Nemours Club. 
The last-named club offered a handsome gold quail pin 
to the lady of the Fox Club making high actual score. 
The prize for the best score made by a lady who 
had never before shot in a match went to Miss M. R. 
Woodman, of Wilmington. 
At the close of the shoot the Fox Gun Club enter¬ 
tained the ladies of the Nemours Club at a dinner party 
at the Hotel Hanover. After the dinner there was a 
theater party at the Broad Street Theater.

tion of a woman’s gun club in Philadelphia, and ulti¬ 
mately toi an eastern league, including Philadelphia, Wil¬ 
mington and Baltimore. Blue Bird. 
Cincinnati G. C. 
Youghiogheny Country Club. 
Octorfr 18 marked the wind-up of a series of eight 
shoots being held this season at the Youghiogheny 
Country Club. This does not by any means signify that 
the shooting is over for the season, for there will be open 
trap shoots at the club every other Saturday afternoon, 
as long as the weather permits. On Thanksgiving Day, 
Nov. 27, an open shoot is being arranged for. 
As has been previously announced, J. F. Calhoun 
carried off the prize in the doubles. Dr. Aber, with a 
score of 92 out of a possible 100 in the shoot-off won 
the trophy for Class A. IT. A. Young with 81 won the 
trophy for Class B, and B. C. Parke with 70 won the 
trophy in Class C. Dr. Hodgson tied Parke in this 
class, he also getting 70; but in the miss-and-out shoot 
off Parke won, Dr. Hodgson unfortunately missing his 
first bird and bringing the event to a rapid conclusion. 
The club handicap shoot was won by J. W. Napier, 
and he was presented with the club trophy for the 
season. This season series proved a success in every 
way, and the following list of shooters will show how 
well the series was patronized:

Nemours (Ladies) G. C. 
WiLMtNC.TOM, Del., Oct. 23.—The shoot Wednesday 
afternoon was a very interesting one. Miss Hammond 
and Miss Carson tied in the regular event, each break¬ 
ing 17 of the 25 targets. In the shoot-off between Miss 
Carson and Miss Lannan, held over from last week. Miss 
Carson was high for the Major Ramsay trophy. In the 
Ramsay event for this week, Mrs. McKaig and Miss 
Hammond with their handicaps, each made a perfect 
score. In the shoot-oiff which followed, however, Mrs. 
McKaig won, and will he the wearer of the gold medal 
until the next regular shoot; she was also advanced from 
the Class C to Class B. Scores with handicaps were as 
follows:

Ten members of the Nemours (ladies) Gun Club, of 
Wilmington, Del., visited Philadelphia last Saturday, 
Oct. 18, and carried off honors at the first “Ladies’ Day” 
of the Fox Gun Club at Cedar Park Lane and Ogontz 
avenue. 
The ladies left Wilmington shortly after 11 o’clock 
and were met at Wayne Junction by a delegation of the 
Fox Gun Club, who had a large bus at the station to take 
them to the shooting grounds. These grounds are beau¬ 
tifully situated, and the little club house that has been 
but recently built, is most attractive. 
The shooting began about 2:30, and was watched with 
much interest by a large crowd of people, who followed 
the shooters from trap to trap. 
The ladies displayed unusual form, and the more 
experienced of them demonstrated that trapshooting is as 
much a woman’s game as a man’s, and that women are 
fully competent to compete with the men at the traps. 
The contest for the highest actual score was reduced 
to a tie between Mrs. Elizabeth Moulton, of the Fox 
Club, and Miss Harriet D. Hammond, president of the 
Nemours Club. The two tied with 35 on the program of 
50 targets, and again in the shoot-off at 25 targets. In 
the miss-and-out shoot, which followed, however, Miss 
Hammond won, and was presented with the main trophy 
for high actual score, a beautifully engraved silver bon¬ 
bon spoon. She also' captured the special prize offered 
to the lady from the Nemours Club, making high actual 
score—a cut-glass olive dish, given by Mrs. Moulton. 
The first contest for the President’s trophy was shot 
on Oct. 26, there being fourteen shooters entered. High 
score in actual breaks was made by Ertel, who broke 
84 from the 18yd. mark. Davies, from 20, and Ford 
from 19yds., gave him a close race, each scoring 83, and 
the latter tying with Ertel on a perfect score, including 
the added target handicap. L. J. Squier, of Pittsburg, 
standing at 17yds., made the high score of the match, S8, 
but as he is a professional, he is not eligible to wn. 
The weather was ideal, but approaching dusk made the 
light poor for the last round of the contest, and it was 
hard to see the targets. The conditions of the trophy are 
ICO targets per man, shot in five 20-target strings, distance 
handicap 16 to 23vds., and added targets; 75 per cent, 
shooters at lGvds. and receive 20 added targets; 76 per 
cent, at 17yds., 19 targets; 77 per cent, at 18yds., 18 
targets; 78 per cent, at 19yds., 17 targets; 79 and 80 per 
cent, at 20vds., 15 targets; 81 and 82 per cent, at 21yds., 
13 targets; 83 and 84 per cent, at 22yds., 11 targets; 85 
and 86 at 23yds., 9 targets; the added targets to bring the 
total up to 95. Any shooter breaking less than the num¬ 
ber allowed for his distance, goes forward one yard in 
the next contest; if he breaks more, he must go back 
one yard. There will be fifteen shoots for the trophy; 
contestants must take part in at least nine shoots in order 
to qualify; the contestant making high average in all 
the events in which he takes part wins the trophy. 
Dibowski did nice work, considering that this was his 
first handicap shoo>t, and he drew lSyds. George Greene, 
a prominent local trapshooter twenty-five years ago, in 
the days of A1 Bandel; “Wick” (Limberg), another noted 
shot, and Fred Peiper, his old-time companion in the 
field, shot a match against Arthur Gambell and Dibowski 
at 50 targets per man, but could not hold their own with 
the new recruits, and were defeated by a score of 82 to 
64. The next shoot for the trophy will be held on 
Nov. 2. The club will be represented at the tournament 
of the Northern Kentucky Gun Club. Scores:
