Capt. C. B. Prutzman, of the Reading Roller Mill

The 20-bird handicap to be held at Spring Valley, 
under the auspices of the Spring Valley Shooting As¬ 
sociation on Feb. 8, promises to be a record-breaker. 
Handicaps are from 27 to 30yds. Entries from Harris¬ 
burg, Lebanon, Pottstown, Royersford and Philadelph'a 
are assured. Birds will not be rated higher than 40 cents 
a pair. Traps and field are level, all fenced in, and are 
the mosf beautiful in the State for live bird shooting. 
A cordial invitation is extended to all lovers of this 
sport to participate. Programs may be had by address¬ 
ing E. H. Adams, 1805 Perkiomen avenue, Reading, Pa. 
Revival of trapshooting at Baltusrol Golf Club over 
in Jersey is al good sign. It proves that even so exact¬ 
ing a sportsman as a golfer cannot get along with only 
one recreation, and like all those who want one better than 
they have, they turned to the trap, the acrosaucer and the 
shot putter. Here’s hoping they’ll lose no more targets 
than they have lost golf balls, with the co-operation of 
well trained caddies, with ever ready heels. 
A newly incorporated gun club, known as .\sbury 
Park Gun Club, has met with phenomenal success. 
Organized only three weeks ago, it already has enrolled 
113 members. They meet every Tuesday and Saturday 
afternoon on the beach, and hold shooting matches, and 
have two traps continually in use. The officers are: 
President, Arthur A. Seger; Vice-President, T. Herman 
Beringer, Jr.; Secretary, Elvin C. Burtis; Treasurer, 
James Hardy. 
Down Maine way, in the neighborhood of Portland, 
there is a saying, “If you go to it, go to it right,” said 
saying being particularly in vogue at the None Such 
Gun Club, located on Crooked River. This expressive 
title covers a club a year old, and just chock full of good 
shooters, all of whom take an interest in teaching the 
young to shoot. One by one the original bunch of a 
dozen boys is being reduced as they slip from Kinder¬ 
garten to upper register shooters.

Bowdoin College Gun Club. 
Brunswick, Me., Jan. 21.—In the D. K. E. House 
at Bowdoin College, fourteen enthusiastic scatter gun 
men met and had a chinfest as to the feasability ot 
organizing a gun club to hold weekly trap shoots, and 
later probably get into the Intercollegiate Trapshoot- 
ers’ League. Suffice it to say, the club was organized 
and for the present will use shooting grounds of Bruns¬ 
wick Gun Club. Officers were elected as follows: Presi¬ 
dent, George L. Skolfield, ’13. of Brunswick; Vice-Pres¬ 
ident, Kenneth A. Loring, ’14, of Reading, Mass.; Sec¬ 
retary-Treasurer, Theodore E. Emery, ’13, of Randolph.
