Michigan Slate Tournament. 
Bay City, Mich., Sept. 3.—Largest and best shoot 
ever held in Michigan. The grounds where the shooting 
took place was ideal, fronting on Saginaw Bay and clear 
sky background. Verona Beach is a beautiful place to 
hold a shoot of this kind, and was voted by all visiting 
shooters to be the best ever. The shooters were pleased 
with the trophy, as when once won they belong to the 
winners. No strings attached. Twelve beautiful cups 
constituted the trophies. 
Squad No. 3, composed of Ridley, Day, Heikes, 
Galbraith and Volk, was the banner squad. Twice they 
broke 74 out of 75. 
Monday was a nice day, but Tuesday a high wind 
prevailed, and the targets did all kinds of stunts. The 
harder the wind blew the better the shooting—at least, 
it seemed that way by the records made in the champion¬ 
ship events. Next year 150 shooters for Michigan State 
shoot. 
The five-man team championship of Michigan was 
won by Bay City No. 2; prize, five silver cups; each 
man shot at 25 targets: 
Bay City No. 2. 112 Cadillac 104 
Bay City No. 1. 110 Saginaw 104 
Munising . 106 Owosso 102 
Caro . 104 
Wm. Ridley, of What Cheer, la., won high amateur 
average cup. G W. Fortledge, of Cadillac, won high 
Michigan amateur cup for high average on all regular 
events. H. Maxon won Bay City cup. C. A. Galbraith 
won class championship cup, and Owosso two-man team 
won two silver cups.

C. A. Galbraith won 
with 
47 at 20yds. Bust tied 
but 
lost in the shoot-off. 
The average money paid under the money-back sys¬ 
tem was a surprise to most of the shooters of Michigan, 
as this was only the second tournament ever held in 
Michigan under the Squier mcney-back system. Every¬ 
body went away satisfied and voted the money-back purse 
a dandy. The following received average money: 
Total money left in purse, $292.15, divided into 18 
moneys: Wm. Ridlev, $46.80; T. W. Fortledge, $40.93, 
A. M. Wesner. $32.15: H Maxon, $26.30; C. A. Gal¬ 
braith, $21.90; F. D Peltier, $21.90: Geo. Volk, $17.55; 
T. McAvoy, $14.60; B. S. Gaylord, $14 60: E. Carpenter, 
$11.70; H. Benson, $8.75; G.' Schell, $8.75; G. McCann, 
$8.75; M. Broughton, $5.85; R. Stevens, $2.90: C. Ver- 
milyea, $2.90; C. H. Burt. $2.90; F. Helfrecht, $2.90. 
The slogan for Michigan trapshooters is, “Now alto¬ 
gether for 1913.”

Bridgeport, Conn., Sept. 2.—Under auspices of Sea 
Side Gun Club a mighty successful tournament was 
held by the Connecticut Trapshooters League to-day. 
There were exactly 100 gunners present in active partici¬ 
pation, of whom 95 were from among' the best amateurs 
in New England. Five of the most popular for-targets- 
only shooters were among those present. 
The general score average was low, the winner, E. 
G. Southey getting 141 out of 150. Second went to C. G. 
Holmes on 140, while third was shared on 139 by C. W. 
Van Stone, R. McFetridge, W. W. Rice and E. W. 
Mumford. 
The pink-sheet targets-only educators, in two in¬ 
stances outcracked their amateur brothers. H. S. Welles 
won top honors with 144, with Ed. Banks runner-up 
with 142, trailed slightly “in arrears” by Neaf Apgar and 
E. M. Funk, each of whom chalked up 137 aerosaucers.
