Canoeing. 
The Eastern Division of the American Canoe Associa¬ 
tion held its annual dinner Saturday evening, March 28, 
1914. at the New American I-Iouse, Boston. Owing, no 
doubt, to the storm of rain and snow which prevailed 
only forty-five appeared at the festive board, but those 
who attended made up in enthusiasm for their small 
numbers. 
After due attention had been given to the menu pro¬ 
vided, Vice-Commodore Newman introduced Rear Com. 
F. W. Houston as the toastmaster of the evening, who. 
with the able assistance of Mr. Frank T. Wiswall, of 
the Lawrence Canoe Club, introduced the speakers. 
Com. J. A. Newman in responding to the division meet 
of 1914, stated that the camp would be held on May 29, 
30 and 31, and that ample notice of the location would 
be given. He was followed by F. II. Gerlach, purser of 
the division; Samuel B. Burnham, treasurer of the asso¬ 
ciation; Albert D. Berning, past vice-commodore of the 
Atlantic Division; William A. Heath (“A. C. A. Bill”) 
for the Swastika Canoe Club; Past Vice-Corn. “Jack” 
Howard, for the Medford Boat Club; Past Vice-Corn. Fred 
Brodbeck, for the Dedham Boat Club; Henry F. Whiting, 
for the Cocheco Canoe Club; and former Secretary B. L. 
Goodwin, who had kind words for Sugar Island as a re¬ 
sult of his first vacation spent there in August, 1913. 
White Plains Gun Club. 
The White Plains Gun Club held their regular weekly 
shoot on Saturday, March 28th, at their club grounds, 
located at the Gedney Farms Hotel, White Plains. 
The unfavorable weather conditions kept the attend¬ 
ance down to eleven shooters. These men, however, 
braved the storm and shot the entire program through a 
driving rainstorm. 
FI. H. Shannon, the club’s youthful shooter, made a 
clean sweep at the traps. Mr. Shannon captured a leg 
on the Schieffelin cup. Schieffel'in gun, DuPont trophy, 
Wing trophy and the Allyn trophy for doubles. He was 
also high scratch man with a total of 89 breaks. 
Only one other member secured a leg on a trophy and 
that was E. L. Haas, who obtained a leg on the prize 
for the Olympic style of shooting. His score was 19 out 
of a possible 25. 
Mrs. F. F. Rodgers was the only lady member who 
participated in the shoot on this date. Her score of 56 
out of a possible 100 was considered excellent work under 
the conditions. 
The following scores were made at this shoot:
