Shoot at the Youghiogheny Country Club. 
McKeesport, Pa., February 16, 1914. 
In spite of bad weather conditions the Valentine 
Day trap shoot at the Youghiogheny Country Club 
proved a success, but the drifting snow and strong 
quartering wind prevented most of the shooters from 
making high scores, but Dr. Heisey seemed to have no 
trouble in locating the birds in spite of adverse condi¬ 
tions, getting 44 out of a possible 50. J. W. Wilson 
followed second with 37 and if he had rot fallen down 
in his last 15 birds, would have pushed Dr. Heisey 
hard for first place. A number of the shooters went 
up on the 1 o’clock car in time for practice, previous 
to the regular 50 bird event. Some of the scores of 
those who took part in the 25 bird practice events 
were as follows: 
First Event:—Wilson, 16; Cornelius, o; W. E. Byard. 
11. 
Second Event:—Wilson, 21; Cornelius, 10; Byard, 12; 
Wm. Pry, 4. 
Third Event:—Wilson, 18; Cornelius, 13; Byard, 12. 
Fourth Event:—Calhoun, 19; Aber, 13; Sword, ii; 
Heisey, 22. 
Fifth Event:—Wilson, 16; Cornelius, 7; Byard, 15. 
The regular 50 bird event was shot in three events, 
first, 15 birds; second, 20 birds, and third, 15 birds, and 
resulted as follows:

Riverton Gun Club. 
Riverton, N. J., February 14, 1914. 
Riverton Gun Club today clinched the championship 
of the West Jersey Trapshooters’ League by winning 
the fourth of 'the monthly matches. There is still an¬ 
other match on the schedule, but even should the up- 
Jersey marksmen lose this _ they will be awarded the 
big silver trophy emblematic of the championship, as 
they have won three of the four shoots thus far held. 
The Farragut Sportsmen’s Association, over whose 
traps, at East Camden, yesterday’s match was held takes 
second honors with West Coliingswood a poor third. 
The latter team did not send a squad to take part in 
yesterday’s shoot, and Riverton and Farragut fought it 
out. The Camden marksmen had a chance to win the 
series by taking all the remaining shots and put up a 
game but vain battle. The score was 202 to 191. 
Shooting in the teeth of a gale that blew across 
the Delaware River the five high men ir. the Riverton 
contingent averaged a trifle over 40, which is regarded as 
highly creditable under such conditions. Vaughan, of 
Riverton, missed only seven of his targets, and was 
awarded a silver spoon for being high gun. Warren, 
with 41, was high for Farragut. Many members of 
both teams who were looked on as being sure to make 
the select five fell down miserably. Summary:

Birmingham Gun Club. 
Birmingham, Ala., February 14, 1914. 
The coldest day of the season saw eleven shooters at 
the Birmingham Gun Club at their regular weekly prac¬ 
tice shoot. President James Hillman led the shoot¬ 
ing with the good score of 94 out of his 100, which was 
a remarkable piece of work in the cold and wind. C. 
J. Barr was in second place with 92 out of his 100 
and the only one to make a perfect score of 25. 
Scores were made as follows:

Meadow Spring Gun Club. 
Meadow Spring, Pa., February 14, 1914. 
Breaking 83 of his 100 flyers and carrying 3 dead 
added birds, G. D. Gideon, Jr., secretary of the Meadow 
Spring Gun Club, won the spoon offered for the 
high gun in today’s shoot over the Fifty-seventh and 
Lancaster avenue. Although the high wind and a snow 
background made shooting conditions most difficult, 
Gideon shot well in every event, not falling below 20 
in any of his 25 targets. Emerson gave him a keen 
rub for the high honors, finishing with 83, 75 being 
actual smashes. Soley, with 74, finished third. 
Gideon also won the club’s merchandise event with 
48 out of his first 50 birds, handicaps included. Scores:
