RICHARD I,. COLLINS, 
Secretary. 
A Trap Shooter Suggests. 
Having noted with what success the “Telegraphic 
Trapshooting Matches” were conducted last winter, I 
beg leave to make the following suggestion, believing 
that the general adoption of same will prove of real 
value to the sport of trapshooting, and, at the same 
time, provide a number of events, beneficial and inter¬ 
esting in the extreme to the individual clubs which 
participate, and incidentally supply publicity for the 
game in what is usually considered the “dull season.” 
My suggestion is: 
Divide the gun clubs of the country into four divi¬ 
sions: 
Division Number 1—To include clubs in cities with 
a population of 100,000 or more. 
Division Number 2—To include clubs in cities with 
a population of from 50,000 to 100,000. 
Division Number 3—To include clubs in cities with 
a population of from 35,000 to 50,000. 
Division Number 4—To include clubs in cities with 
a population of from 25,000 to 35,000. 
The United States 1910 Census to govern. 
SUGGESTED RULES FOR THE CONTESTS. 
1. Four contests. 
2. Each club to shoot once a month on its own 
grounds. 
3. Five high men in each club’s local events to 
comprise the team each month. 
4. Each man to shoot at 50 targets each match from 
16 yards. 
5. One practice or “warm up” event at 25 targets 
allowed, but no more. 
6. All targets to be thrown fifty yards, regulation 
height. 
7. Interstate rules to govern all points not otherwise 
covered. 
8. All bona-fide amateur members of any club elig¬ 
ible to compete. 
9. A member of two or more clubs is eligible to 
shoot only with one club. 
10. Each club to make telegraphic and mail report 
of its scores on day of match at the expense of the 
club. 
11. All scores of all clubs to be reported after each 
shoot, so that “official averages” of all contestants may 
be kept and published. 
ENTRANCE AND TROPHIES. 
1. Entrance to be made on or before October 10, 1914. 
2. Entrance $5 per club, payable to E. E. Shaner when 
entry is made. 
3. E. E. Shaner to be the trophy committee to pass 
on designs of trophies submitted, and to also be the 
committee on the purchase of the trophies. 
4. Trophies to be nurchased when all entries are 
in, and to be ready for distribution when matches are 
finished. 
5. All entrance money to be spent for trophies. 
6. One trophy for 15 entries or less in each divi¬ 
sion; and one additional trophy for each additional 
ten entries or fraction thereof. 
SUGGESTED SCHEDULE OF MATCHES. 
Every club to have the option of shooting on Saturday 
or Sunday, but every club must shoot on the days 
named by it when making entry, regardless of weather 
conditions. 
First Division—November 7 or 8, December 5 or 6, 
January 2 or 3, February 6 or 7. 
Second Division—November 14 or 15, December 12 or 
13, January 9 or 10, February 13 or 14. 
Third Division—November 21 or 22, December 19 or 
20, January 16 or 17, February 20 or 21. 
Fourth Division—November 28 or 29, December 26 or 
27, January 23 or 24, February 27 or 28. 
METHODS OF REPORTING. 
Each club to be supplied with a sufficient number 
of blank forms on which to properly report the results 
of each shoot, and these reports should be sent in 
promptly after each shoot. 
I would suggest that the handling of the detail work 
in connection with the running of these shoots be 
turned over to E. R. Galvin. 592 Du Pont Building, 
Wilmington, Del., who handled the telegraphic matches 
so successfully, and who is in a position to secure good 
publicity for scores, etc. He to compile all scores, and 
promptly send them to the various sporting papers for 
publication and to such papers in the towns where 
clubs are located, as may care to receive them. 
THE VALUE OF THIS PLAN. 
To gun club secretaries who have the best interests of 
their clubs at heart, I would call attention to the bene¬ 
fits which your club may derive from the carrying out 
of the plan above outlined. By entering and competing 
in these matches, your club will be in the trapshooting 
limelight of the whole country and you will be as¬ 
sured of regular visits from professionals and promi¬ 
nent amateurs who are ever ready to take in a shoot 
at a good live club. Should my suggestion be adopted 
I hope you will have little difficulty in getting your 
members out to shoot, as they will be helping the 
grand old game of trapshooting secure the publicity 
which it has deserved, but which has been lacking for 
so many years. 
Every man thinks his club is the best in the game. 
As a matter of fact, is your club really as good as 
clubs in other cities of the same size? Here is an 
opportunity of learning just where your club and your 
town “stand” in the trapshooting game. 
The plan to have “official averages” of all who con¬ 
test in these shoots published monthly, alone will make 
it worth the while of your club to be a participant in 
the matches, which, I predict, will develop into the 
“National League” of trapshooting.
