Crescent A. C. 
Bay Ridge, N. Y., Nov. 5.—An all-day shoot in¬ 
augurated formally the trapshooting season here to-day. 
Twenty aerosaucerists voted for the sport, depositing 
with more or less regularity their ballots of chilled 8’s 
into the receptive saucers. The 100-target handicap 
Holiday cup went to T. S. Lawson, whose free 16 gave 
him 92. He took home also the Election Day Trophy; 
with 28 unpulled clays he scored 100 gross. George 
Brower made good on Committee cup with 48 from a 
start of "6 free birds. The new trap house and ground 
improvements were much appreciated by the shooters.

Northern Kentucky Guin Club. 
The series of monthly money-back tournaments is 
ended for this year. These shoots have been well at¬ 
tended. At the last one fifteen shooters took part, 
among the out-of-town shooters being Lee Omohundro, 
New Orleans, and J. French, Texas, both trade repre¬ 
sentatives', R. Gaskell, Morrow, O.; W. Webster, Co¬ 
lumbus; Ike Brandenberg, Dayton, and L. J. Squier, 
Pittsburgh, Pa. 
High score of the day was made by J. S. Day, who 
dropped 7 out of 150. S. W. Dameron and R. Gaskell 
tied for high amateur score on 139. At the half-way 
post, 75 targets, C. W. Ford was high amateur with 73, 
tying with J. S. Day, but the pace was a little too hot 
and he finished second on 138. J. French was back here 
after an absence of several years, and received a warm 
welcome. He used to be a regular at the weekly shoots 
of the Cincinnati Gun Club on the old grounds, and 
was one of the most popular trade representatives in 
this section. The scores:

The weekly shoot on Nov. 3 was poorly attended, 
only four men taking part. Irwin shot a good gait, 
breaking 91. He is “coming back” evidently, as he 
made high amateur score at Hamilton last week. The 
club will give a turkey shoot on the Tuesday before 
Thanksgiving, Nov. 26. The program will probably be 
five 20-target events, or it may be decided to make the 
events shorter , and have more of them. Turkeys, ducks 
and chickens will be' given in each event; ties to be 
"shot off in following event, and in the last event, miss-

Greenwich Field Club. 
Greenwich, Conn., Nov. 5. —A five-man team from 
Noroton Gun Club came over to-day and was properly 
Turkeyed by the Greenwich Field Club Bulgars. The 
score was 405 to 339. A. Elliott Ranney was big gun 
for the day with 92 out of his 100 Turks. Charley 
Martin, of the Bulgar bunch, and Fred Gallagher, of 
the Shotups, tied for second high with 87. Third plug 
was pulled by A. L. Ferguson with 82. Some of the 
scores by members of each team were somewhat sad, 
probably through lack of practice. The scores:

Veitmeyer in second place with 90. In the first compe¬ 
tition for the Stevens Arms Co. fob and button, Ed¬ 
monson broke the most targets, but number added under 
terms of the competition gave Wilson temporary posses¬ 
sion. The scores follow:
