S. S. White Gun Club. 
Honors were pretty well divided at the monthly shoot 
of the S. S. White Gun Club, over the Keystone traps, 
Nov. 17, at Holmesburg Junction, considering the qual¬ 
ity of the guns that took part in the event. An outsider, 
George S. McCarty, captured a spoon for the high net 
score of the day with 96, a club member, Charles H. 
Newcomb, falling just two targets shy of landing the 
dinner. But Newcomb was rewarded by being high 
score for the Class A challenge cup, Hand being the 
winner in Class B; W. E. Robinson in Class C, and 
William B. Abbott in Class D. The last-named also got 
nearer to the front for the Frank M. Fames trophy, and 
W. T. Smith strengthened his hold on the Monitor cup. 
The full program was at 100 targets, divided into strings 
of 25, with the club handicap, added to the score in 
each string, although the total was figured by Secretary 
Robinson on the net score. 
Following the club shoot there was something of a 
novelty in a special event at 15 targets that provoked 
considerable amusement as well as tested the capabilities 
of the shooters. The high guns shot in conjunction with 
the lower ones, being paired off, the high gun with the 
low one, and so on down the list, their scores at 50 
targets being used as a basis of computation.

The match was for a silver spoon offered by H. Cook. 
It was won by W. H. Mathews and McKean with a 
total of 30, each making a straight. The individual stars, 
aside from the winning team, who broke all their targets, 
were McCarty, Keene, Robinson, Freeman and Wescott. 
There was also a match for a diamond stickpin be¬ 
tween Sidebotham and Abbott, but the two shooters tied 
with 18, and it being too dark for the shoot-off, Side¬ 
botham withdrew and the prize went to Abbott. The

Waterloo Gun Club. 
Waterloo, la., Nov. 16. —Thirty-six shooters took 
part in the tournament held here yesterday, and had not 
darkness put an end to. the sport, fully two-thirds of the 
participants would have shot the entire program. 
The weather was unfavorable, a freezing north wind, 
which blew directly into the shooters’ faces, carrying the 
targets skyward at a rate that made good scores difficult. 
Among the out-of-town shooters were N. Muncey, of 
Iowa City; G. II. Goering, Walcott; W. S. Hoon, Jewell 
Junction; Chas. Hummel, La Porte; C. Bothwell, Iowa 
City; Dad Cleveland, Bob Risher and F. M. Hamblin, 
Manchester; Ira Cutler, Cedar Rapids; F. Callaway, 
Grundy Center, James Ford, Gale Dayton, Cedar Falls’ 
E. S. Pyburn, Vinton; C. F. Rowlett, Reinbeck.

This shooting, which has never been 
equalled, was all done in Registered 
Tournaments at Regulation targets 
during the Season of 1910, and the proof 
of the figures can be found in the records 
of the Interstate Association. E. F. 
Forsgard, of Waco, Texas, is the man 
who did it, and Winchester Repeating 
Shotgun and Winchester “Leader” and 
“Repeater” shells was the combination that he did it with. 
Such shooting as this and the recent winning tor the tenth 
time of the Official Season’s Average by Winchester goods 
shows that the Winchester Repeating Shotgun is still supreme 
and that Winchester Shells made with Patent Corrugated 
heads, a modern and ingenious American idea, are far superior 
to shells made according to foreign methods once used in 
the construction of Winchester Shells but discarded years ago.

Clearview Gun Club. 
Bonsell captured high gun honors in the monthly 
shoot of the Clearview Gun Club at Darby yesterday 
afternoon. He was in the Class B, and led with 45 
targets out of a possible 50. However, he was given a 
warm reception by Allen, who ran up a total of 44. In 
Class A, Fisher had it all to himself with 44. In Class 
C, Fisk led with 44, his nearest rival being Dalton, who 
made two less. All the events were run without a hitch, 
and the performances were exceptionally good. 
Penrose Gun Club. 
The weekly live-bird event of the Penrose Gun Club, 
held at Manoa yesterday, was won by Knowles, who had 
a straight score of ten kills, while Budd, Bowker, Clegg 
and Brewer were tied with 9 for second honors. Jackson 
and Killian were on even terms with 8. Jones had 7 
and Walton 6, which proved to be the lowest score. The 
performance of Knowles was excellent, his remarkable 
shooting eliciting considerable praise. 
In the miss-and-out event Jackson was high man, kill¬ 
ing 5 birds, while Clegg was second with 4 kills.
