eight shooters came out to try their skill at the traps.

Dave Thomas leading in both events with scores of 24. 
Seelig was second in event 1 with a score of .-3, while 
Eck took second place in event 5, he also breaking 23. 
Event No. 2, the targets were thrown 70yds., and iaggart 
topped the list with 23 breaks, while Seelig scored 21. 
The targets were thrown 75yds. in both events Nos. 
3 and 4. Thomas and Eck both broke 22 in event No. 3, 
Keller being next in line with 20. 
In event No. 4, with 75yd. targets and all shooters 
standing at 23yds. handicap, Thomas broke 17, Eck 16, 
Taggart 13, and Seelig 10. , 
Event No. 6 was at 12 pairs, in which Eck took the 
lead with 18, while Davis was a close second with 17, 
Kumpfer broke 14. * . , 
All those present were glad to welcome the return ot 
Hardy Wolf, who has been in the South for the past 
year in an effort to- regain his health. His enthusiasm 
for shooting is still as great as ever, and his first trial 
in over a year netted him a score of 22 out of 25, which 
shows that he can point his gun just as true as when 
he was one of our regulars. We deeply regret that he 
must leave again this week, and he certainly takes with 
him the “best wishes of all the members for a speedy re¬ 
covery to full health. 
Cunningham, France and Lyon came out rather late 
and shot -only one frame, as it was cloudy and dark, the 
latter especially making some good breaks of targets 
that could hardly be seen in the twilight. Scores:

trying a new automatic. Fogle, Kuch and Carson each shot 
a Remington auto. The scores are poon on account of 
too much wind. There will be no regular monthly shoot 
durin°- November because everyone will be shooting 
quail,° but in December there will be a one-day shoot, 
and once a month thereafter. Scores:
