Parker Gun Victories in 1912 
' I 'HE highest official average for the season of 1912 at both Single 
and Double Targets was made with Parker Guns. 
As on every previous occasion, the bona fide Championship of 
America was won with a Parker Gun, Mr. W. R. Crosby scoring 
198 X 200 targets at 18 yards rise. Same man, same gun, made the World’s 
Record, scoring 98 x 100 targets at 23 yards, which is a truly wonderful 
performance. 
Small bore Parker Guns are recognized as the Standard Game Guns of America 
and are gaining in popularity every season with the most progressive sportsmen.

RiversT'DE, Mass., March 8.—A lot of good things 
happened here to-day. First, a record attendance, nine¬ 
teen, turned out; second, C. P. Blinn from an elevation 
of 5'/4, made a full and a half scaler over, record for 
March cup on Sargeant traps, and thirdly, the bunch 
that showed was about as congenial as ever blew rings 
with gun powder. S. A. Ellis won take-home trophy 
with 92 from four gratis saucers. Blinn occupied lower 
berth with 91 from 11 gratuities, while T. C. Adams, 
from the ground, had to sit up all night—there were 
only two berths, and he was third comer. 
Weather was ideal, just cold enough to make wel- 
come the altitudinous 
spheroid
