FOREST AND STREAM 
Cincinnati Gun Club. 
The weather was perfect on June 14, and some good 
scores were put up at the weekly shoot of the club. 
The attendance was good, although a few of the old 
timers who had been specially invited to be present 
failed to show up. Fifteen shooters were present and 
took part in all the events. High honors for the day 
were a tie between W. R. Randall, of Mason, and L. 
H. Gambell, each breaking 95. J. Schatzman, one of 
the old timers who has recently come back into the 
game, was second with 94, shooting a very consistent 
pace from start to finish. C. W. Ford, was in good 
form and after a hot race with R. Davies edged the 
latter out of third place by only one target, 93 to 92. 
Rybolt struck a snag in the third event which lost him 
his chances for the top place, but he finished in the 
90 per cent, class. The main event of the shoot was 
a team match, the losing team to pay for the targets 
and refreshments. The match was shot in five 20-tar¬ 
get events and to make it more interesting there was 
an optional sweep of $1.00 on each event, divided 50- 
30-20 per cent., class shooting. There was also an 
optional of $2.00 on the 100 targets.. to be shot for in 
classes, and divided the same way in each class. The 
90 per cent, shooters to make up Class A, and all 
others to be in Class B. The teams consisted of 
seven men each, and the race was one of the most 
exciting and interesting which has been held on the 
grounds this season. Randall’s team had the best of 
the first round by 4 targets; in the second round Gam- 
bell’s bunch cut down this lead and the score was tied 
on 257 for each team. In the third round Randall 
went to the front with six targets to the good. The 
fourth round Gambell’s team got busy, two of the mem¬ 
bers went straight, and the team finished one target 
to the good. The last, and deciding round ended in 
favor of Randall’s team, their total being one target 
better than Gambell’s, and the score was tied on 624. 
The result was rather a surprise to the Randall crowd, 
as they thought it was all off, and a number had packed 
up ready to leave the grounds, but they quickly, limb¬ 
ered up again, and got busy on the firing line in the 
shoot-off at 25 targets per man. When the returns 
were in it was found that the result was still in doubt, 
as each team had scored 159. Approaching dusk pre¬ 
vented another shoot-off. and the match was declared a 
draw. In the shoot-off Rybolt, on Gambell’s team, 
was the only one to score 25 straight, although there 
were several 24’s. C. O. LeCompte, the well known 
professional of Asheville, N. C., was present. Several 
of the members will atend the big tournament of the 
of the members will attend the big tournament of the 
Indians, which is to be held at Cedar Point next week, 
June 22 to 25. This is one of the most important 
shoots of the year, as well as one of the most en¬ 
joyable, and a large attendance is assured.

N. C. R. Gun Club. 
The nice Saturday afternoons are still coming our way, 
and this one was fully enjoyed by the shooters present. 
We were glad to have Mr. Carleton, who is a N. C. R. 
agent located in Teras, shooting with us, and his scores 
show that he has taken part in this sport before, ana 
can hold bis own splendidly on the “Firing Line.” 
It has been quite a time since our “Pop” Heikes has 
been at home to shoot with us. He received a very cor¬ 
dial welcome, and our only regret is that his recent ill¬ 
ness left him so weak that he is not yet able to make 
the splendid scores that he formerly did. Horace Heikes 
made his usual good showing, and only fell down to 92 
because he shot the last 25 from the “21 yard” line. 
The work of arranging the traps on our shooting 
grounds, as they will be for the 15th Grand American 
Handicap, is started, and will be rushed to completion 
as rapidly as possible. Shooters from all parts of the 
country are cordially invited to . attend our. Saturday 
afternoon “Practice Shoots,” and increase their chances 
for winning some of the many honors which , will be 
awarded at the coming Tournament, by practicing over 
the traps under G. A. H. conditions. We are particu¬ 
larly fortunate for location, as a number of the largest 
steam railroad lines have many trains in and out of our 
city daily. There are also several of the largest trac¬ 
tion lines running into our city, and, as our grounds are 
located directly on the Ohio Electric Line, being only 
seven minutes’ ride from the center, of the . City and 
Union Depot, with a regular stop for both interurban 
and city cars, there are ample reasons for the shooters 
to take advantage of the opportunity. Fare is only five 
cents each way.

Nemours (Ladies) Trapshooting Club. 
Wilmington, Delaware, June 18, 1914. 
None of the ladies were quite up to the mark yester¬ 
day for some reason or other. The excitement of try¬ 
ing to qualify for the Catasauqua trip on July 1st was 
probably responsible for the low scores. 
Miss Lannan was high in the handicap event for the 
Major Ramsay Trophy with Dr. Florence Seward as 
the runner-up. For a beginner the doctor is shooting 
remarkably well and will soon be at the head of the 
class if she keeps on as she has been doing for the 
last three weeks. For second high handicap score yes¬ 
terday Dr. Seward was awarded the fifth prize in 'the 
“Consolation Contest,” a year’s subscription to the 
Sportsmen’s Review.

Obituary. 
The writer is more than prostrated as well as the 
bereaved family and brother shooters to announce the 
death of our renowned, logical, ever ready brother 
trap-shooter Charles F. Kramlich of Allentown, Pa., 
who was laid to rest on Wednesday, June 17, 1914. A 
year or so ago Mr. Kramlich lost his right eye by 
bursting the blood vessels in the eye, thus effecting 
the nerves leading to the cerebellum. 
Mr. Kramlich was a member of the firm of M. C. 
Ebesce Hardware Co., and for a number of years 
served as captain and _ principal advisor of the Lehigh 
Valley Shooting Association. His trap-shooting records 
are some of the classiest of the state. We have lost 
a good-hearted co-worker.

Pierson trout stream.
