Palace Roof Tournament 
This will be a Unique Tournament Fourteen Stories from the Ground 
The Best Shooters in America will Attend 
Buffalo Audubon Club. 
Buffalo, N. Y., January 17, 1914. 
High scores were again out of the question on ac¬ 
count of weather conditions. A high northwest wind 
which turned very cold toward evening blew across 
the traps. The Audubons expect to have extensive 
and comfortable permanent quarters in the near future. 
A large tract of land has been bought and a new 
club house will be built. We are greatly interested 
in the Telegraphic Match and hope to give the win¬ 
ner a run for the trophy. Blackmer again demon¬ 
strated he is some shooter by breaking 91x100 and 
finishing the Marlin 
Gun 
Event 
with 
24x25 which 
puts 
him in the lead for 
the 
gun to 
date.
