Westy Hogans to Meet in New York, March 8. 
The annual winter meeting of the Westy Hogans will 
be held in the Grand Central Palace, New York City, 
on Sunday afternoon, March 8, at 2 o’clock. As usual 
this will be the most important meeting of the year of 
this famous organization of Eastern trapshooters, for it 
is at this gathering that plans are laid for the annual 
tournament, in September. A large attendance of mem¬ 
bers is anticipated, as many of them are now in attend¬ 
ance at the indoor trapshooting tournaments in progress- 
in New York. A draft of the program for this year’s 
shoot at Atlantic City, N. J., September 15 to 19, will 
he submitted by the tournament committee and it prob¬ 
ably will be adopted. An extensive campaign of pub¬ 
licity will also be inaugurated at the New York meet¬ 
ing, for the Hogans intend to make their 1914 shoot the 
greatest in the history of the organization.
