The club has gradually gained since 
the first “leg” in 
2nd 
Day 
January when they broke 208. 
In 1 'ebruary the record was 228; March, 233; April, 
334, and in May, 237, making a total of 1,140-1,250, an 
average of ninety-one per cent. When a club can make 
an average with ten men of ninety-one per cent., for 
five shoots, it is making a real record. The mem¬ 
bers of the club may feel proud of their record, as the 
best clubs over the United States have had teams en¬ 
tered in the telegraphic match. 
I he match will no doubt give the club another boost 
as Lansdale, Pennsylvania, is only 13 targets ahead on 
the fourth “leg”; Dayton, four, Little Falls, one, so 
they have got to make a good record for Danbury not 
to pass them. 
I he conditions yesterday were ideal for good scores 
and the way the targets were blown to dust showed that 
the shooters had their eyes with them and determined 
to make up for the poor scores made at Ridgefield a 
week ago. 
W. A. Gregory, C. W. Stevens and Cyrus Cornen, 
Jr., all made twenty-five straight, with E. H. Bailey, 
D. F. Bedient and M. Scofield twenty-four; R. H. Ben¬ 
nett and W. M. Judd twenty-three; R. Downs and Dr. 
E. B. Van Saun, twenty-two, making 237-250. Taking 
the total scores for the five “legs” there were only six 
shooters who competed in all of them 
D. F. Bedient of Ridgefield was high, with 117-125; 
W. A. Gregory, 116; E. H. Bailey, 112; M. Scofield, 106; 
Sterling Fanton, 94, and Robt. V. Sears, 93. If Cyrus 
Comen and C. W. Stevens had competed in all the 
matches they would have made a close race, as Cornen 
broke 96-100 and Stevens 95 they both missing one 
“leg.” In the Du Pont trophy contest there were seven 
tied on a perfect score. Cornen, Stevens and Gregory 
broke straight from scratch; Bedient, Scofield, Fanton 
and Bailey had a straight with their handicap. On the 
total for the three “leg,” Sears, Gregory and Stevens 
are^ tied with 72 and the rest only a few targets behind. 
This feels very grateful to the Ridgefield members, as 
they have taken a great interest in these matches. They 
always come, no matter what the weather is. Cornen 
did some fine shooting on his one hundred targets he 
shot at breaking 97, which is some record. The fol¬ 
lowing are the scores in the telegraphic match and the 
Du Pont trophy contest:

First Lieutenant 
George 
Schoen, 
arranged 
commanding the 
Eighth Co., C. A. 
C., has 
a 
match 
indoor 
rifle shoot between a team from the Eighth Co. and a 
picked team from the members of the Pahquioque Gun 
Club. This is the first time in the history of either 
organization that teams representing them have met in 
a match shoot and the interest in the contest is great 
among the members of both organizations. The mem¬ 
bers of the Gun Club will be at a slight disadvantage 
as they will have to use the rifles that the military men 
use in regular indoor work, while they have been ac¬ 
customed to using a gun made for trap shooting. A 
number of the members of the Gun Club are crack 
rifle shots, however, and they are confident that they 
can make the Eighth Co. shooters do their best in 
order to capture the laurels in the coming contest. 
The members of the Gun Club will have several elimi¬ 
nation shoots before the team that is going to represent 
the club in the contest with the Eighth Co. marksmen 
is selected. In the first tryout they made a fine show¬ 
ing, ten men taking part. C. Howard Daley was high 
with 94 out of a possible 100 from the three positions, 
sitting, kneeling and prone. This is something not 
one of the club members even ever saw done before. 
Fred Hall accounted for 92; E. H. Bailey, 91; W. E. 
Day, 90; J. Osborn, 90; R. Hall, 90; R. Corgaiton, 90; 
E. Versey, 90; G. Hall, 87; and M. Scofield, 81. 
The Eighth Co. members congratulated the Gun Club 
on the splendid showing they made. Interest is keen 
among the military men for the elimination teams the 
company will have from which to select its team. The 
best shots in the company will be chosen for the sol¬ 
dier boys know of the prowess of the Gun Club men 
with arms of different sorts and would not like to 
have the Pahquioque team defeat them in the com¬ 
petitive match. 
Regular army regulations will govern the match. The 
range will be fifty feet long. The targets will be ten 
inches in width with a bullseye one inch in diameter.
