Manhasset Bay Yacht Club Traps, Where Long Island Sound Cham¬ 
pionship Was Held. 
Long Island Sound Championship. 
Port Washington, L. I., January 17, 1914. 
At Manhasset Bay Yacht Club today the largest, 
and most representative entry list, that thus far has 
shot for the now recognized and sought honor, cham¬ 
pion of Long Island Sound. The best target wreckers 
on the sound an adjacent waters were on hand, in¬ 
cluding the almost unbeatable R. L. Spotts, and such 
other experts as C. W. Billings, Dan McMahon, Dr. 
Culver, Paul von Boeckman, Ernest von Lengerke, F. 
B. Stephenson, Jim Alker, Mr. Guggenheim, Dr. Currie, 
D. E. Smith, C. M. Camp and well, most every one 
who figures well up in the tar and clay disc cracking 
average, here about. Conditions were not particularly 
favorable to high scores, and only a few were made. 
A new champion was unveiled in the person of H. H. 
Shannon of Queens Gun Club. He beat last years 
winner Paul von Boeckman by one aerosaucer getting 
the very creditable score of 90, while von Boeckman and 
Dan McMahon tied for peace with 89. R. L. Spotts and 
F. B. Stephenson filled fourth nook with 87 each. New 
York Athletic Club lifted the club event with 426 with 
Queens Gun Club second five down. About sixty shoot¬ 
ers called pull, which is a mighty fine showing and 
put the annual event among trap shooting classics. 
Jack Fanning was high forwads the only shooter 
with 88 and the only straight event of the day. The 
scores:

Manhasset Bay Yacht Club. 
Port Washington, L. I., Jan. 4.—It was E. A. Sierck’s 
day at the Manhasset Bay Yacht Club traps today. Con¬ 
sistent shooting gave him a victory in every one of the 
five events on the program, and in only two of the five 
was he forced to engage in a shoot-off to win. Con¬ 
tinual rain and a dark background made high scores out 
of the question.

Cleveland Gun Club. 
The New Year shoot of the Cleveland Gun Club, 
held Thursday, Jan. 1, at shooting park. Mayfield Road, 
stop 16-A, was a “Good Will” affair. The weather con¬ 
ditions were of the best for the game, thirty-seven shoot¬ 
ers entering, but either for lack of sand or nerve, only 
seventeen of the bunch shot out the program. The 
targets were about a fifty-yard target, the wind south¬ 
east, which is a very tricky wind on the Cleveland 
grounds, and the only man that found the spot was 
Dr. A. J. Brown, and he found it good and hard, for 
146 out of 150, as they were just to his liking, but the 
targets were hard to the larger half of the other shoot¬ 
ers, and the interest soon died out, which goes to show 
that if you want to keep up interest in the game, tar¬ 
gets must be broken. A number of new faces were 
among the shooters, and as they could not break ’em, 
they soon “took to the woods." 
The out-of-town gentlemen who came to start the 
New. Year right were Messrs. Galt, State, Reinhard and 
Williams, of Akron, Ohio; Manahan, of Norwalk, Ohio, 
and Ledgett, New T.ondon, Ohio. The “back numbers” 
who once could break targets and who came out to give 
a helping hand were S. S. Saffohl, F. Burns, R. C. 
Hopkins, C. W. Willard, J. C. Cannon, F. D. Felling 
and Silas Gould. They all wanted to “get into the 
swim,” but the water was too cold and for that reason 
they “took to the fireplace” in the clubhouse. 'Charley 
Worth was on the job, but the targets were too small 
for him, and the boys all say “Give us something easy 
and we will be on the game the next time and shoot it 
out.”
