STATE COLLEGE GUN CLUB. 
State College, Pennsylvania, April 24, 1914. 
State College Gun Club held their regular weekly 
shoot today. Although very few of the members were 
present to participate in the match, yet it was made of 
more than ordinary interest, from the fact that both 
“Foster” and “Robinson” each had an unbroken run 
from last week and were aspiring for “long run.” 
Foster led with a string of twenty-nine without a miss.

The Grand Birmingham Handicap Shooting Tourna¬ 
ment starts on the 20th of April and lasts for three 
days with a most attractive program, a good lot of 
added money and two trophies. The great event of this 
shoot is the Grand Birmingham Handicap consisting of 
100 targets distance handicap for a purse of $50 guar¬ 
anteed and a handsome Sterling trophy. The Preliminary 
Handicap shot on the second day of the shoot for a 
guaranteed purse of $50 and the double target Cham¬ 
pionship of the South shot on the first day, winner to 
receive a Gold trophy emblem of Double Championship 
of South.

country will compete.

Cincinnati Gun Club. 
The club’s Easter shoot on April 12, attracted thirteen 
shooters, and some thirty or forty spectators. The pro¬ 
gram included a couple of practice events at 25 targets 
each, and five events at 20 targets each, and wound up 
with a two man team match at 25 singles and one at 
twelve pairs of doubles. The weather conditions were 
perfect, barring a slight breeze which affected the flight 
of the targets at times. H. S. Connelly was high man 
in the 20-target events, shooting a very even gait and 
finishing with 93 out of 100. This is exceptionally good 
work as he has been unable to do much practicing for 
several months. “Kid” Randall of Mason, was not in 
good form, and fell below his usual place. He .is one of 
the old stand-bys of the club, and is generally well up 
in the 90 per cent, class. Schreckstarted off well, but had 
hard luck in the last two events and spoiled his chance 
for a good score. Ford dropped in his third event, but 
came back and went out with a straight, one of the only 
three straights made during the afternoon. C. F. Moore, 
of Pittsburg, a well-known professional, was second high 
man in the 100, scoring 92. In the team race at singles, 
Gambell and Schmidt got the best of Davies and Schreck 
by 5 targets, but the latter team won the match at 
doubles by one target. A big pile of “home made” 
Easter eggs, and other refreshments, were served in the 
“rathskeller,” and shooters and visitors showed their 
appreciation by frequent trips down the steps.

95 out of 1OO from 21 yards—the high 
score at Oklahoma City made with a 
"WINCH£S T[R 
Repeating Shotgun and Loaded Shells 
I HIS was the score that outshone all others and set shooters a-talking at the South¬ 
western Handicap Tournament, held at Oklahoma City, April 14-16th. It also 
won the Preliminary Handicap for R. A. King, of Delta, Colo., the man who 
made it. Such a score by an amateur from such a long mark in such a big 
tournament, shows great skill and nerve and the possibilities of the most reliable gun 
and shells. Winchester shotguns and shells are that kind. Their superiority was fur¬ 
ther demonstrated by the High Professional score of 94 x 100 from 22 yards made 
with them in the Preliminary Handicap by C. G. Spencer. Because of their quality, 
which makes such high class shooting possible, Winchester guns and ammunition are 
rightly considered the '“Leaders of the World.” 
There can be but one best—WINCHES TER IS THAT ONE
