Larchmont Y. C. 
Larchmont, N. Y., Dec. 14.—Weather for trapshoot¬ 
ing was ideal here to-day, with the result that many 
shooters toed the score and tacked up good cards. Dan 
McMahon, who has been coming all year, is here, right 
along with Ralph Spotts, Higginson, et ah, from exalted 
places. A. B. Alley, who though on a long handicap, 
shot well enough to pull down 100 -bird handicap, and a 
trophy event. Ralph Spotts took high gun with 140 out 
of 150 and cabbaged the 15-target scratch event. Mc¬ 
Mahon slipped the cover over the remaining two trophy 
events, visitors and take-home, each on a full. On 
monthly cup, J. Henry returned a full score from a 
handicap of 3. A. Whiting and four others tied for 
second place with 24. J. Batterson was the winner of 
the 10-bird scratch with a full score, and B. M. Hig¬ 
ginson won the leg for the accumulation cup with a 
full. Second take-home trophy shot for, in which nine 
men took part, was won by T. Lenane, Jr.

Westwood Gun Club. 
Westwood, O., Dec. 14.- —The recently organized 
gun club held its weekly shoot to-day, with an attendance 
of ten members. The targets were hard ones, as a strong 
cross-wind caused them to take very erratic flights. With 
one or two exceptions the members are all new at the 
game, but they are all enthusiastic lovers of the sport, 
and before spring will be putting up scores that will 
compare favorably with those made on other local 
grounds. The range is on Montana avenue, a short 
walk east from the car line. Regular weekly shoots will 
be held on Saturday afternoons during the winter, 
weather permitting. J. Schneider was high man in the 
first 50 targets, breaking 62 per cent.; Val. Schroder and 
A. Kuball came next with 25 and 24 respectively. P. 
Ruehlman made his second appearance on the firing 
line to-day, and need not feel discouraged at his inability 
to hit ’em all, for the wind was making them some hard, 
and experts would have missed a lot. La Boiteaux used 
to be a familiar figure at the Cincinnati grounds, but has 
not shot at the traps for several years, and his rather 
poor showing comes from lack of practice. J. Conner 
is another old-timer, but it is over a decade since he 
shot over the traps; a little more practice and he will 
catch on to the trick again.
