It Pays to Shoot Winchester, 
the Cartridges of Known Repu¬ 
tation and Proved Superiority. 
the representatives chose Circleville. The applicatioris 
of several cities were presented. L. J. Squier, Cincinnati; 
T. R. Taylor, • Columbus, and E. M. Stout championed 
Circleville, T. A. Marshall, R. O. Heikes and T. G, 
Itarstow were appointed tellers. The election of officers 
followed. After nominations for President had been 
made, J. R. Taylor moved that the same officers be re¬ 
elected, as the shoot was to be given here again. The 
motion was carried without discussion. President, W. I. 
Spangler, Tarlton; Vice-President, E. M. Stout, Circle¬ 
ville; J. S. Ritt, Secretary-Treasurer, Circleville; Execu¬ 
tive Committee: Dr. F. M. Edwards, Columbus; J. H. 
Smith, Columbus; \Vm. Shatfuck, Coal Grove; E. S. 
Rogers, Cleveland; H. D. Smart, Gallon. 
On motion made by J. R. Taylor, covering a sug¬ 
gestion by Thos. A. Marshall, was passed, and the 
following resolution drawn up, and the secretary in¬ 
structed to write to the Association: 
“Whereas, the Ohio ' State Sportsmen’s Association, 
members of the American Game Protective and Propaga¬ 
tion Association, in annual convention assembled, do 
most heartily endorse the work and methods of our 
parent organiration in their fight for the protection and 
propagation of game. 
“W. I. Spangler, Pres. 
“J. S. Ritt, Sec’y. 
L. J. Squier suggested that an effort should be made 
to get more of the gun clubs into the league. He stated 
that there were at least one hundred and fifty active clubs 
in the State, and of that number only twenty belong to 
the league. J. M. Markham moved that the secretary be 
instructed to write to every gun club in the State, not 
now a member of the Association, urging the advantages 
of coming into the league. The motion was carried. 
J. R. Taylor thought that the traveling representatives 
should help in this matter, and promised to do so. 
Voted, on motion of J. M. Markham, that the money 
received from club dues should be used for the purchase 
of trophies, and as added money to the 1914 tournament. 
This motion was amended to read that trophies should 
be bought with the money, and was carried. It was 
suggested that the officers should consult with J. R. 
Taylor and L. J. Squier as to the selection of trophies. 
Adjourned. 
SECOND DAY—JUNE 5. 
Thursday was clear and cool, more wind than yes¬ 
terday, but not enough to seriously interfere with the 
flight. At 9:45 the special was begun with forty-two 
entries. Of these, seven went straight; thirteen broke 
24, and only three fell below 20. Three of the events 
were finished at noon, and a halt called for dinner. 
The regular program events were finished about 3:20. 
The match for the amateur five-man team championsnip 
of the State was started over No. 3 trap at 2:45, while 
the tenth event was being shot over trap No. 1. At 
3:30 everything was over but the shouting, and some of 
the shooters had good reason to be well satisfied with 
their showing. The amateurs were shooting in the same 
class with the pros, to-day, F. C. Koch tying for high 
gun on 148 with Heer and German; C. D. Coburn tied 
for se.cond place with J. W. Garrett; Homer Hirth shot 
right up with C. F. Moore and R. W. Clancy, sharing 
third place honors on 144; A. B. Shobe was in fourth 
place with R. O. Heikes and T. A. Marshall on 143; 
fifth high amateurs were Webster, W. G. Alkire, U. E. 
Campbell and F. M. Edwards with 140 each. Heer and 
German had another strenuous time to-day, which ended 
in a tie. At the end of the first three events each had 
dropped one target; in the fourth event, German let 
another get away, giving Heer one lead. Their positions 
did not change until the last event, when Heer lost 
another bird, and German went straight. Hirth broke 
his first 94 birds straight; J. S. Day got a run of 67; 
C. D. Coburn broke 117 straight; F. C. Koch made a 
run of 64, and another of 68 in the regular events; J. W. 
Garrett broke the last 88 of the regular events. W. G. 
Alk're broke 54 straight; L. S. German broke the last 91 
of the regular events, and went straight in the last 
special, making an unfinished run of 116; R. O. Heikes 
a'so 'eft the grounds with an unfinished run of 94 in the 
regular and special events. On Tuesday R. W. Clancy 
broke 64 straight. 
The five-man team match for the Shooting and Fish¬ 
ing trophy had only four entries and was won by the 
Davton team with a margin of 5 targets over the Colum¬ 
bus team, 118 to 113; Circleville team No. 1 was one 
ta'get behind Columbus. Several new shooters were at 
the grounds to-day, and the places of those who le't 
on the night before were more than filled. "There were 
nftv-nine shooters who took part in one or more of the 
e\ents to-cay. Among the visitors at the grounds dur¬ 
ing the day was George Haswell, a few years ago one 
of the most active trapshooters in the State, a hustler m 
the local gun club affairs, and secretary of the Oh’o 
Field 'liual Association. Among the new shooters to 
arrive to-day v ere 11. E. and J. H. Smith, of Columtnis. 
The former cracked out a straight for his team, but the 
latter could not quite keep up that pace, or the result 
would have been different. 
The Okobiji Tribe was strongly represented at the 
tournament, and pushed the Indian tournament at all 
times. Among the noted Chiefs were Round Head, 
Bloody Ground, Woodpecker, Buckeye, White Scalp, 
Make ’Em Fly, Long Talk, Bald Eagle, Hoochee 
Coochee, High Point and Crowfoot. The tournament 
committee of the tribe promises those who visit Cedar 
Point, July 8 to 10, when the big war dance and doings 
are to be pulled off, the time of their lives, and in¬ 
vites every sportsman tO' attend and bring the squaws 
and pappooses. Scores:
