Nemours (Ladies) Trapshooting Club. 
Wilmington, Delaware, January 21, 1914. 
Judging from the number o: books she has been able 
to win during the past two months, Mrs. E. L. Riley 
seems to be the “Book Lover” of the Nemours Trap¬ 
shooting Club. She won the Book of Sport donated to 
the club by Mr. Fred E. Pond, editor of The Sports¬ 
men’s Review, and also a copy of Grav’s F-legy, one of 
the prizes in the Pepple Shoot. 
On Wednesday of last week Mrs. Riley captured the 
first book in the Book Lovers’ Contest (Handicap Event) 
and today she won the second volume entitled “Racquets, 
Tennis and Squash” by E. H. Miles. 
The high wind which sprang up early this afternoon 
was almost too much for the shooters. It was not con¬ 
tent with blowing hats awry and breaking feathers, but 
it sent the boxes of shells sailing off the posts and 
almost took the shooters themselves off their feet. These 
conditions caused the ladies to make rather poor scores 
with the exception of our really consistent shooter, Mrs 
W. A. Joslyn, who, in spite of the wind, broke 13 of 
the elusive targets, the high actual score made during 
the afternoon. 
Mrs. Joslyn seems to he a windy day shooter for on 
several occasions when the wind has upset most of the 
shooters, she has calmly stepped out on the firing lin, 
and made high score for the afternoon. It is to be 
hoped that some of the rest of us wili soon follow Mrs. 
Joslyn’s example and learn to shoot in the wind, for, 
from the weather we have had lately, especially on Wed¬ 
nesday afternoons, Wilmington seems to be following in 
the footsteps of her big sister, Chicago, and is getting 
to be a decidedly “Windy City.” BLUE BIRD.

“The Ham and Bacon Shoot.” 
Columbus Gun Club, January 17th, Saturday Afternoon. 
The “Ham and Bacon Shoot” Saturday afternoon Janu¬ 
ary 17th proved a good attraction, as the suggestion 
brought a crowd of marksmen. About the assembly 
room were fifteen hams and bacon, resembling a minature 
packing house; the odor seemed to stimulate the boys 
and they all took a whack at them. The weather was 
heavy with cloudy background and the saucers looked 
small. The afternoon event was fifty targets, consisting 
of five ten target events in which Dr. Porter of Reynolds- 
l:urg, was high amateur with 42 out of 50, Ham No. 1; 
Mr. Jessup was second with 40, Ham No. 2; Mr. 
Carpenter third with 35, Ham No. 3; Mr. Harris broke 
33, Ham No. 4; Mr. B. Thompson 33, Ham No. 5, and 
Mi. King Thompson 26, Ham No. 6. ihere were fifteen 
prizes, entrance for the afternoon $2 ncluding targets. 
Any attending having the privilege of sh-ori-ie Lnrough 
the 50 target event for targets oniy, entrance 50 cents 
including targets. In the professional class Mr. John 
R. Taylor brought out a new gun and burnt up fifty 
straight in the- “Ham Shoot.” Mr. W. R. C iamberlain 
breaking 47, a close second. Next Saturday afternoon 
there will be a challenge team shoot for the real 
red. Two team captains have been chosen who shoot 
about ar. even clip and the two teams will be drawn on 
the choose up and call plan, so that they w'd be quite 
equally divided. The race will be 50 targets, five ten 
targets events. The prize to the winning team will be a 
box of fine cigars, for which the loosers must foot the 
bill after fifty has been shot the winners will proceed 
lo blow the smoke around. “Noisy John” couldn’t miss 
any of them. If he had only shot “Roundy" for a Ham, 
he wouldn’t have to starve all week. 
Carpenter is shooting along nicelv and pick ng up th.- 
threads of the game. The lliompson boys _enjov_ them¬ 
selves and are becoming greatly interested in X Target 
Shooting. Shilling and Ward blew in late. Bert Harris 
f Gahana bent the barrel down another half .nch. Mr. 
Jessup a new beginner finished second; it can be done. 
Dr. Porter is to be congratulated on his shooting for 
having so little practice, he landed first. McMoud and 
Held, two new men wish to find the spot and wil. be out 
regular. Tack Smith borrowed a pair of smrky glasses 
to keep the brimstone balls from putting his eye out 
and the glasses reduced the targets so in size he could 
not find part of them. Mr. Smiley from Ohio State shot 
Shattucks Old Parker first rate. 
Scores, 50 Target Ham and Bacon Shoot. 
Double shooting was indulged in the latter pa t ol 
The regular Saturday afternoon shoot at the Evanston 
Gun Club, January 17th, attracted 19 shooters. The new 
club house was given the “once over” by the visitors 
and made the subject of many highly complimentary re¬ 
marks. Considering the bad weather the scores were 
good.
