Hot Springs, Ark., April 19.—The twenty-third an¬ 
nual tournament of the .Arkansas State Sportsmen’s .As¬ 
sociation was held under the auspices of the Hot 
Springs Gun Club on April 17, 18 and 19. The attend¬ 
ance was not as large as expected on account of flood 
conditions, which seriously interfered with many of the 
State shooters reaching here. There were twenty-six 
amateurs and twelve professionals present, and the 
shoot passed off nicely. There were about 25,000 tar¬ 
gets trapped in the three days. 
At the annual meeting of the State Sportsmen’s -As¬ 
sociation, Geo. \V. Clements of Little Rock, was elected 
President; T)r. Dibbel, of Little Rock, A’ice-President, 
and Paul R. I.itzke, Secretary 
and 
Treasurer. Tt was 
also decided to hold the 1914 
tournament in 
Li 
ttle 
Rock. 
Individual State Chami)ionship 
was 
won 
by 
J- 
F. 
Bolton, of Eureka Springs.

BucF.ai.o, N. Y., -April 19. — A gale from the north- 
'/est caused many misses to-day, the little clay discs 
being most elusive. Broderick was high for the day 
with 81 out of the regular program of 100. 
Audubon Club members are making extensive prepar¬ 
ations for the entertainment of the visiting sportsmen at 
the New "York State Sportsmen’s Association’s annual 
State shoot, June 9 to 11, the first day being practice 
day. Probably up to date, nearly $2,500 worth of prizes 
and cash have been donated for the occasion, and we are 
counting on the best gathering of any State shoot for 
years past. The merchandise and added money will be 
divided according to the Lewis system, and we hope 
this will insure an equitable division. Scores for to¬ 
day’s shoot:

-A LARGE and enthusiastic crowd of shooters was 
present on Saturday afternoon, April 26, at the week-end 
shoot of the club. The sport of the afternoon, however, 
was somew'hat marred by a hard rain that swept the 
grounds for a short while, after which ideal shooting 
weather was had. Interest in the club shoots is rapidly 
increasing and the competition among the members of 
the several classes is keen. 
The weekly trophies offered by the club were won 
by the following members: Scratch class—No. 1. tie. 
Jamison and E. AA^. Poindexter; No. 2, H. C. Elliott. 
Class A: No. 1, Holland; No. 2, Boyd Class B; No. 
1. Dyer; No. 2, MacFerrin. Class C: No. 1, F. Jones; 
No. 2, Cooksey. Stevens trophy, Dyer. 
The scores 
made 
by the 
respective shooters 
are as 
follows:
