FOREST AND STREAM 
[Sept. 30, 1911. 
Westy Hogans. 
Atlantic City, Sept. 23. —This week has been the 
•most strenuous of the year among trapshooters, and 
everybody who was anybody in the who’s w'ho among 
trapshooters was on hand here the past four days. The 
Trig event was the shoot for the E. C. cup, which carries 
with it the inanimate target championship of the world. 
The conditions called for 100 singles—50 targets expert 
rules, shot one-man-up, and 25 pairs doubles. There 
were fifteen contestants, and every one was in the run¬ 
ning to the finish. There was unfortunately a marring 
incident in the misfire of one of the cartridges in Lyon’s 
gun on the twelfth pair (see explanation in another 
column by one of the judges). 
When the championship event started with the 100 
singles being shot at first, a high wind was blowing 
directly in the faces of the fifteen shooters, eight ama¬ 
teurs and seven professionals, who entered in this classic 
■event. Wm. Ridley, of What Cheer, la., an amateur who 
won the 1911 Western Handicap, succeeded in breaking 
‘his quota—100 straight—phenomenal work, indeed, con¬ 
sidering the hard conditions prevailing. Two profes¬ 
sionals, George E. Lyon, of Durham, and Lester Ger¬ 
man, of Aberdeen, Md., the 1911 national professional 
champion, tied for second honors, each with two down in 
•their respective century of targets. 
The second stage of the event was the hardest shoot¬ 
ing, 50 targets, expert rules governing, one man up to 
shoot. In this style of shooting W. S. Colfax, Jr., of 
Pompton Plains, N. J., and German, tied on 39 each 
out of their respective 50 targets, and this portion of 
•the event was shot in a drizzling rain, which made it 
anything but pleasant. 
Tn the 25 pairs of double targets the remaining pair 
of the event, Lyon finished high with 46 targets broken 
out of his half century, and suceeded by a great uphill 
•fight in tying German for the high gun honors, the 
pair finishing their respective double century of targets 
each 179 each, with Colfax second with 172, while James 
R. Graham, of Chicago, amateur, tied John R. Taylor, 
a professional from Atlanta, Ga., each with 170 targets 
-scored. 
The shoot-off of the existing tie between Lyon and 
Herman was exciting, a battle royal from start to finish, 
with German taking the lead at the start and holding 
same to within six shots of the finish, when the “Dixie 
Land’’ professional tied German, and by good pointing 
landed the honors by the narrowest of margins, one 
target. The conditions governing the shoot-off called 
for 25 singles, 25 expert, and 10 pair. In the singles 
the men had their “eagle eye” working, and both suc¬ 
ceeded in smashing straight. The crowd of spectators, 
numbering close to 500, which was present, despite the 
rain, gave the men an ovation, and in the 25 targets 
-expert rules, German led by 2 targets, but Lyon’s long 
suit is double-target shooting, and the Durham pro¬ 
fessional not only outshot his opponent, but defeated the 
ex-baseball player by one target, and pandemonium broke 
loose. The friends of Lyon made a rush for the new 
•champion, who was forced to hold a reception for several 
minutes. German challenged the winner. 
Opening Day. 
H. 1-inn Worthington, with 98 targets broken, was 
high gun in the 100 singles. Lester German was second 
with 97. Jerome de Bee, of Utica, N. Y.; Wm. Ridley, 
of What Cheer, la.; Geo. L. Lynn and E. M. Funk 
had 96 breaks each. 
J. R. Graham, of Ingleside, Ill., who won last year’s 
Westy Hogan championship, and C. de Quillfeldt, of 
Amityville, L. I., each broke 95: Jesse S. Young, of 
•Chicago; George E. Painter, of Pittsburgh, present 
Pennsylvania State champion, and H. B. Cook, of At¬ 
lantic City, broke 94. 
In the 10 pairs of doubles, E. S. Rogers, president of 
the Cleveland Gun Club, of Cleveland, was high with 
19 breaks. Scores: 
Five events at 20 singles and one event at 10 pairs 
were shot Sept. 19, practice day:
