Philadelphia Trapshooters’ League. 
Edge Hitt, Pa., Oct. 12. —The pre-season meet of the 
Philadelphia Trapshooters’ League was held here to-day. 
Aside from the money on each event, there were two 
prizes offered in each class that were distinctly worth 
winning, and this made the competition in the different 
classes unusually keen. The class system was arranged 
so as to give everybody a chance, and the winner and 
runner-up in each class who carried off the cut-glass 
prizes were: Class A, George S. McCarty with 94, and 
“Butch” Landis, 93; Class B. E. Fred. Slear, 95, and 
Frank Bender, of Lansdale, 89; Class C, H. P. Carlon, 
85, and Harvey Wiley 93; Class D. Frank Meehan, Jr.. 
77, and MacAIonan and Jar-ell tied for the runner-up 
price, each with 72. 
Singularly, a Class B shooter was the big gun on the 
full program. Fred Slear, the Camden crack, beat out 
McCarty for the honor by just one target, due to two 
straights, a 19 and two 18s. The program called for five 
20-bird events, all at 16yds., and as all four traps were 
in good working order, the tournament was cleaned up in 
record time. The attendance comprised representatives 
front all the local clubs, and there were several out-of- 
town shooters who participated. The scores:

The Du Pont Gun Club. 
The Du Pont Gun Club last Saturday had a ‘“Home 
Week” shoot. It was in keeping with the week’s cele¬ 
bration. Although many of the club’s members attended 
the opening shoot of the Philadelphia Trapshooters' 
League on the grounds of the Highland Gun Club, Edge 
Hill, Pa., a number of shooters were before the local 
traps. 
A 50-target event was the feature of the day, the prize 
being a handsome silver cup. J. H. Minnick and W. 
Edmanson tied at 49—a remarkable score. On the shoot- 
off at 25 targets, Minnick won by a score of 23 to 20.
