each day, and finished in good season, enabling the 
shooters to reach their hotels in time for an early sup¬ 
per, and giving them the entire evening for social 
pleasures, an opportunity which they fully appreciated. 
Even on Thursday, with over three hundred shooters, the 
last squad finished before 6 o’clock. The section system 
of running a big shoot demonstrated its usefulness here, 
as it has done before. The squads finished on all five 
traps at practically the same time in one day, there being 
only ten minutes between the first and last sections, the 
second and third finishing at the same moment, the first 
one minute earlier, and the fourth a minute later. During 
the week over 150,000 targets were trapped without delay. 
Practice Day. 
Monday, June 19, was practice day, and the early fore¬ 
noon found quite a gathering of shooters at the ground 
for the purpose of getting a little chance at the traps 
that were to be used. The program consisted of four 20- 
target events and one at 10 pairs in the morning, and re¬ 
peated in the afternoon. Entrance $2 in each event, 
divided Rose system, 8, 5, 3, 2. The sweepstakes were 
optional. There were 110 shooters entered in the morn¬ 
ing event, and in the afternoon event, entries for which 
closed soon after 1 o’clock, there were 162 shooters. This 
is the largest practice day attendance that has ever 
been at a G. A. H. The weather was perfect, and manv 
good scores were put up. The professionals were in good 
trim in the morning, and were having all the best ot the 
amateurs, Lester German and H. H. Stevens scoring 
98 out of 100. J. M. Hawkins was second with 97, and 
C. G. Spencer and J. S. Day came next with 96. The 
high amateur was J. R. Graham with a score of 95; Joe 
Barto was a close runner-up with 94, and J. S. Young 
was only one target behind with 93. 
The afternoon brought out quite a number of new 
shooters, and the scores were a trifle better. German 
was high man in this event with 99; Lyon and J. R. 
Taylor came next with 97. Then came Spencer with 95. 
For the entire day at 200 targets, Lester German was 
high with 197; Spencer 191; Stevens and Taylor in third 
place on 189. The amateurs shot well up with the pro¬ 
fessionals in the morning, but fell off a little in the 
afternoon event. In the morning J. R. Graham was high 
man with 95; Joe Barto followed close with 94, and then 
Guy Dering with 93. In the afternon event, T. J. 
Graham was again high with the same score, 95, making 
him high amateur for the day with a total of 190; F. G. 
Fuller and F. W. McNeir came second in the afternoon 
with 93, and Mark Arie and A. K. Warren were third 
on 93 each. J. S. Young was second high amateur for 
the day with 188; H. Dixon next with 184; and Fuller 
and J. K. Nolder next with 182 each. The third event 
in each 100 was at 10 pairs, and had the effect of keep¬ 
ing the score below the average. The shooting started 
at 9:45 in the morning, and was continued without in¬ 
terruption until late in the afternoon. Everything worked 
to a charm. 
Squad 19 in event 4, made the day’s squad record, and, 
as it proved, the record for the tournament, by breaking 
100 straight. The members of the squad were W. A. 
Wiedebusch, F. G. Bills, Ed. O’Brien, H. Clark and 
II. H. Stevens. In the fourth event each member of the 
squad scored 20 straight.
