Wilmington, Del., Jan. 10th. 1914. 
Here is a complete list of the clubs entered in the 
Telegraphic Trapshooting Matches, and the scores made 
by those clubs which have competed in the matches to 
date. The strong Paleface aggregation of Boston is lead¬ 
ing but some of the largest clubs entered encountered 
very inclement weather on the day of their first shoot, 
which accounts for the lower scores of some of them.

The weather was unusually severe when the Cincinnati 
Gun Club shot in this match, and as a consequence but 
nine men showed up the day of the shoot. Under favor¬ 
able conditions the Cincinnati. Club will hold its own 
with any trapshooting organization in the country. Watch 
them from now on.

The Du Pont Trapshooting Club shot its match in 
a titty mile gale of wind, and with a torrent of rain 
coming down all the afternoon. Seldom at a club shoot 
has there been assembled such a bunch of noted and 
expert shooters as was at the Du Pont Club on January 
3rd. C. Newcomb, J. C. Griffith, A. B. Richardson, Wm. 
Foord, J. H. Minnick, J. B. McHugh, H. Powers, F. 
Plum, and several others were on hand, and out of 
50 targets shot at, the highest score made was 39, which 
is a fair indication of the conditions under which the 
match was shot. 
The race between Roberson and Hammond was close 
and exciting, and was not decided until the last target 
had been thrown. 
A turkey shoot on the side was an attraction. The 
funds will be used in a worthy cause. 
H. L. Worthington (Linn) of Baltimore was on hand, 
and was demonstrating the new Winchester 12 Ga. Gun, 
and it’s a cinch that every one of the 70 shooters present 
now know all about it. If any one was missed or over¬ 
looked it wasn’t Linn’s fault. 
Dr. Watson said he doesn’t come out oftener because 
he has no chance to win any of the prizes, and yet he 
romped off with the Class E Spoon. 
W. A. Joslyn broke 55 straight. 
The team shoot between the Reds, captained by W. J. 
Higbfield, and the Blues, captained by Harry P. Carlon, 
is the all important topic, and both sides seem confident 
of winning. Both captains claim they have not as yet 
sprung any of “their main line stuff!” and when they get 
started there will be something doing. 
Pete Guest is gradually improving, and was out yester¬ 
day again, but did not shoot up to his usual form. Pete 
still has to use one “stick.” 
Billy Edmanson’s score shows the effect of his long 
lay olay off. Billy don’t miss many when he is in form. 
The Woods were out in force—R. S., D. S., and W. G., 
all shooting. 
Dol Richardson has entered for the Pinehurst Mid¬ 
winter Handicap. 
Highland is next in the Philadelphia Trapshooters 
Race, and the Dupont boys are going to work hard for a 
viejory. 
Andy Summers of the Remington Force was a caller 
at the Dupont Gun Club during the week, and promises 
to drop in for a Saturday shoot sometime soon. 
Bryden Gun Club. 
Catassauqua, Pa., January 10, 1914. 
The local shoot held on the renowned grounds of 
the Bryden Gun Club, Catassauqua, Pa., on New 
Year’s Day was a most spirited event. John L. Englert, 
the well known amateur and member of the club was 
high amateur with 76 out of his quota which was 
remarkable in the fierce gale. 
Geo. W. Steele was second with 6 q, W. Hepner 
was 3rd with 51 out of 75. Geo. W. Steele was 
high gun with 17 in the double event of 12 pairs. Geo. 
Silfies was second with 12. “Slim” tried hard to 
hit them, but half of them got away. 
There was a special event of two teams of 6 men 
each, at 25 targets per man. “Cooper Team”—G. 
Cooper, G. Silfies, II. Porter, R. Peacock, J. Satelle 
and T. Howells. “Hepner Team”—W. Hepner, G. E. 
Brown, G. W. Steele. E. Jones, J. Haines and Francis 
Bush. The Cooper Team won with 121 breaks to 119 
from the Hepner Team. 
There was a special event at 50 targets between 
G. E. Brown, president of the Bryden Club and 
County Commissioner Hugh Porter of Hokendauqua, 
Pa., for a purse of $15. Mr. Brown won by 5 targets 
from his opponent breaking 38 while Porter broke 33. 
The annual registered shoot of the Bryden Gun 
Club will be held on Wednesday, July 1, 1914, when 
Mr. and Mrs. Ad. Topperwein of Texas will be in 
attendance. 10 Lady trap-shooters of Nemours Gun 
Club of Wilmington. Del. have also promised to be 
in attendance. President G. E. Brown spares no time 
and labor to make this the most interesting event ever 
held by the Brydens. 
“LUDDY.” 
Reading, Pa. A. K. Ludwig. 
Jersey City Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., January 10, 1914. 
This was another cold and blustry day and the 
targets did all kinds of stunts before they were either 
hit or missed at the regular Saturday shoot of the 
Jersey City Gun Club and as a result the number of 
shooters were small that toed the mark. Dave Engle 
and Dixon had it out for high honors today, Dave 
finally putting Dixon down and out for the count and 
finishing with an average of 67 per cent, and Dixon 
66 per cent. These scores no doubt look pretty small 
and of course they are just as small as they look but 
if you Mr. Reader should know of any shooter that 
thinks he can beat them on a day like we had to-day 
please send him along some day as we are all willing 
to be shown as Missouri is our home port every 
Saturday. Everett won the leg on the Du Pont Trophy.

Notes. 
Geo. Piercy is still having troubles of his own with 
his new gun. 
Dr. Ittner has it all doped out about how the 
days are lengthening and in another week or so he will 
be able to get all the shooting he wants. Doc. only 
had time to shoot 300 today. 
Engle was very much disgusted with his shooting 
until he saw he was high and then he found he 
wasn’t so bad after all. 
After shooting his last 75 targets Kearney thought 
it was about dinner time and left saying he was 
going to look up a lamp factory next week. 
Kurzel did some pretty good work with his 20 gauge. 
Several special matches on for next Saturday; come 
out and see the fun.

Marine and Field Club. 
Bath Beach, January 10, 1914. 
With a whistling wind, handicapping alike the good, 
medium and not so good shooters Dr. Sauer, from scratch 
broke 42 for a leg on Monthly Cup. and 84 for a win on 
President’s Cup. With a handicap of ten, P. R. Towne 
smashed 89 for the Take Home trophy. There was ver-/ 
interesting shooting from scratch between Dr. Sauer, E. 
II. Lott, J. F. James, only a bird progressively separating 
them most of the time. 
Reaching the 
Far Ones 
How many times you miss the far fliers be¬ 
cause you haven't quite the necessary shooting 
power. 
The advantage is yours if you can count on 
your gun at 50 and 60 yards.
