Philadelphia Trapshooters^ League 
By defeating Lansdale in last Saturday’s match, the 
Du Pont Club maintained its hold on the Trapshooters’ 
League lead. This victory by the Delaware club gives 
them a strong hold on the lead now, as only two more 
shoots are scheduled. Before to-day’s results, four clubs 
were tied for second, one match behind Du Pont, but 
Lansdale losing, cut the number down to two, and 
brightens the Mud Plens’ chances for the championship 
thereby. 
The Meadow Springs’ victory over Highland by 461 
to 450,^ was the surprise of the day, although the con¬ 
tests Clearview gave the Whites, and Lansdale the Du 
Ponts, were closer than expected. Glen Willow, too, 
made Camden hustle to win. 
A feature of yesterday’s shoots was that every club 
totaled over 400 breaks. Meadow Springs led with the 
high total of 461; and Glen Willow, the lowest scoring 
team, finished with .412.

Camden—Glen Willow. 
Camden, N. J., jMarch 1.—Camden team easily beat 
Glen vVillow to-day, the score being 457 to 412. Forty- 
eight shooters faced the traps, and singularly, they were 
evenly divided between the two clubs, but when it came 
to smashing targets the Jersey bunch had all the better 
of the argument, having sixteen out of twenty-four men 
with scores of 40 or better, as against eleven by the 
squad from Manayunk and Roxborough. Scores:

The I9IJ DuPont Long Run Trophy. 
The rules governing the awarding of these trophies, 
which are open to amateurs and professionals, are as 
follows: 
An amateur, to obtain the trophy, must break at 
least 100 single targets straight; a professional at least 
125 straight. No scores made in “extra” or “practice” 
events to be counted unless the extra or practice events 
are shown in the program; only scores in the program 
events in registered tournaments to count, and only 
when Du Pont powders are used by the contestants. 
Du Pont brands are: Du Pont, Ballistite, Schultze and 
Empire. The runs to count must be made during one 
shoot. In a two or three days’ tournament, a contestant 
may carry forward from the preceding day any unfin¬ 
ished run he may have; and should he succeed in increas¬ 
ing his run to lOO or better, in case of amateur, or 125 
in case of professional, such run will be counted. 
These trophies are understood to represent recog¬ 
nition for long runs on single 16yd. targets, and scores 
made in other program events, such as handicap targets 
and doubles, will not be counted as affecting the run. 
If, however, the shooter making the run enters a double- 
target event and breaks all of his double targets, they 
will be added to his score on singles. 
In order to have scores recognized, it will be neces¬ 
sary for the secretary or some other officer of the club 
holding the tournament, or one of the Du Pont repre¬ 
sentatives, to attest same. 
The long-run trophy for 1913 is made of solid gold, 
having as its design in bas relief a quail; on the re- 
\ erse will be engraved the name and address of the win¬ 
ner. Attached to the medal is a gold “hanger,” and 
engraved on it will be the score, date and place where 
run was made. For each additional run of 100. in the 
case of amateurs, and 125 for professionals, an additional 
bar will be engraved and added to the trophy. 
In order to make the contest for the Du Pont long- 
run trophies more attractive, additional awards will be 
made at the end of the 1913 trapshooting season as fol¬ 
lows : 
To the three amateurs having the greatest number of 
long runs to their credit, as shown by long-run bars, gold 
watches will be given. These watches will be suitably 
engraved and will be of Du Pont high quality. 
To the professional having the greatest number of 
long run bars to his credit, a $50 trophy, or $50 in gold 
will be given at the option of the winner. 
Buffalo Audubon Club. 
Buffalo, N. Y., March 2.—^Over 2,500 targets were 
thrown at the Audubon Club’s regular practice shoot 
yesterday afternoon and some excellent scores were 
made. Frank Wright again demonstrated his superiority 
by breaking 96 out of the 100 and 20 straight at doubles. 
John Ebberts was second high with a splendid score of 
91. In the last event at 25 targets, handicap conditions, 
Wright broke 24 and left the grounds, secure in the 
thought it would win a leg on the splendid lmhoff^& 
Cannon trophy. He did not reckon correctly, as Eb¬ 
berts came along with 24, and as Wright had left the 
grounds, he lost his right to the win. After the regular 
shoot was over, several of the members indulged in 
double-target shooting, and Blackmer’s 26 out of 15 pairs 
looked good. Scores:

Robin Hood Gun Club. 
In the regular holiday shoot of the Robin Hood G. C. 
of Staten Island, Feb. 22, nine guns faced the fog and 
rain to exterminate rocks. Hutchings reported with his 
new single-barrel stick and broke 24 out of 25, winning a 
point on the Rowley cup. For the Hutchings prize, a 
20-gauge M'inchester gun, with a handicap of 15, Scho¬ 
field and Conelley tied Rowley, who was shooting from 
scratch, with a score of 45 out of 50. If that score is 
not beaten by Decoration Day, these three guns will shoot 
off the tie. Scores:

Westwood (Ohio) Gun Club. 
Only a few members were at the grounds March 1, 
the weather not being favorable for shooting at the 
traps. A strong wind affected the flight of the targets 
and prevented any scores of the average quality. J. 
Schneider was trying out a new gun, and while he shot 
consistently in all the events, did not reach his mark. 
Dr. Blunden made his first appearance at the traps, 
improving in each event he shot. O. Kling used to be 
one of the regulars at the old St. Bernard grounds of 
the Cinucinnati Club, but has not shot at the traps for 
.several years. He is coming back into the game again 
and will soon be shooting his old time gait. 
The club has started a series of team contests be¬ 
tween the members, which will serve to keep the in¬ 
terest at fever heat, as well as give good practice for 
similar matches with other local clubs.
