Western Pennsylvania Trap Shooters’ League. 
McKeesport, Pa., July 14, 1914. 
“Uncle Ned” Painter and Norwood Johnson divided 
honors at the July tournament of the Western Pennsyl¬ 
vania Trapshooters’ League, which was held Tuesday 
on the range of the Youghiogheny Country Club, Mc¬ 
Keesport. Of the 150 clay birds they shot at in going 
through the day’s program, each broke 142, and were 
four targets ahead of their nearest competitors in the 
amateur class, although higher scores were made by 
professionals. Right behind these two came Ad. 
Hickman, J. C. Calhoun, C. W. Peterson and R. J. 
West, with 138 each, and A. H. Aber had 137, while 
Matthews broke 136. 
A large field of gunners faced the traps at the 
Youghiogheny Club, although the weather was not 
just the best for the sport, and scores consequently 
were lower than usual. The program was run off with¬ 
out a hitch and everything progressed smoothly. 
The Herron Hill Gun Club added to its lead in the 
season’s team race, for two of its members, Painter and 
Johnson, were the leading gunners, with 142 each, and 
A. H. King, the third, broke 134, giving the three a 
total of 418 birds. The McKeesport Gun Club, which 
is giving the Herron Hill Club a close race for honors, 
was five targets behind, as Calhoun and Hickman, 
with 138 each, and Aber, with 137, broke 413 between 
them. 
Under the Lewis class system, the leaders in the 
four divisions won prize money. The Class A gunners 
who got in the prize list have been named. Those 
who divided Class B spoils were Mellon, Jessop and 
Heilman, 128; Rigsby and R. B. Thompson, 127, and 
Smith and Brendlinger, 126. 
WOMAN’S PRIZE WINNER. 
“Jim Crow,” Hickey and Lawson, with 118, topped the 
Class C division. Sypher had 117, and George Thomp¬ 
son and J. C. Ashton broke 116 each, while Lauten- 
slager and Buck made 115 each. 
Mills and Shepherd, with 104 each, topped the Class 
D division. Mrs. J. C. Ashton, Al. Murphy and Braun 
broke 103 each, and O’Brien 102. Mrs. Ashton’s posi¬ 
tion in Class D was better than that of her husband in 
Class C, and her prize money was correspondingly 
larger. The scores:

Analostan Gun Club. 
Washington, D. C., July 19, 1914. 
On July nth the Analostan Club held an in¬ 
teresting shoot. Jos. H. Hunter who has been shooting 
remarkably well lately was high gun with 93 out of his 
century. Recently at the White Flyer traps he ran 
his 100 without a skip. He was awarded the silver 
spoon for high average; Phil Stubener got the A spoon 
by breaking 47 x 50. Dr. E. S. Ford carried home the 
B spoon on 34 and A. V. Parsons and Hal Remington 
tied for the C spoon on 27; Remington forfeited; Jas. 
M. Green received the D spoon, scoring 26 out of his 50. 
Lester German was a visitor and gave a remarkable 
exhibition, scoring 98 x 100. He missed one in his 
first. 15, one in his first 20, and scored his last 50 
straight. The local scribes in referring to his achieve¬ 
ment dubbed him the “greatest trapshooter in the world.”

ostan grounds was the contest for the Emmons’ chal¬ 
lenge cup. Seventeen participated in the contest. This 
is a handicap affair. The two Ford’s tied for first with 
42 x 50. E. W. Ford shot from the limit—22 yards, 
while E. S. shot from 18 yards. It required three 25’s 
to decide the tied. In the first frame each scored 16; 
out of the next 19 and in the final E. W. scored 17 to 
E. S.’s 19. Following are the scores for the afternoon:

Du Pont Trap Shooting Club. 
Wilmington, July 18, 1914. 
Today was a big day for R. P. Willis, Pennsgrove, 
N. J. trapshooter. He competed in the regular events 
at the DuPont Trapshooting Club, and in addition to 
making a very remarkable score he walked off with a 
couple of cups. It was in the first match, the Frank 
L. Connable cup contest that he turned in his sensa¬ 
tional card of 24 out of 25 from 20 yards. He led all 
other starters in this event, and has me honor of hav¬ 
ing his name engraved on the trophy. In addition 
to Willis, the following have also won the prize: J. 
B. Richardson, H. T. Reed 2, S. A. Reis, Walter Tom¬ 
linson, J. W. Mathews, Eugene duPont, W. M. Foord 
J. J. Magaheran, F. J. B. McHugh and T. W. Mathewson. 
Under the conditions covering the award of the cup, 
when it has been shot for on 12 different occasions, the 
winners meet in a match for final permanent possession 
and the above will soon be brought together for this 
purpose. The match will be at 50 targets per man, 
shot on a distance handicap basis, and is sure to bring 
out some good shooting. Other scores in the Con¬ 
nable cup event were:

John Anderson was the runner up in this event, 
with a score of 23 out of 25 from 18 yards. This looks 
like a return to form on the part of John who has not 
been shooting his best of late. 
The much talked of special shoot for Class D and E 
shooters came off as per schedule, and while the at¬ 
tendance was not up to expectations, practically every 
one who competed won a prize. 
In this event W. J. R. Hill, who does not come out 
often enough to give the handicap committee a good 
line on his ability, made the high score, and walked 
off with the sterling silver spoon, which was the high 
gun prize. Mr. Hill’s score was 22 out of 25, and was 
a nice piece of shooting. Other scores were: 
W. J. R. Hill, 22 out of 25, won sterling silver spoon. 
C. Buckmaster, 20 out of 25, won solid gold quail scarf 
pin. 
A. M. Lindsay, 19 out of 25, won Hercules watch fob. 
Frank Thatcher, 18 out of 25, won box of 25 shells. 
Frank Turner, 16 out of 25, won box of 25 shells. 
C. E. Rittenhouse, 15 out of 25, won leather pocket- 
book. 
R. F. Springer, 14 out of 25, won genuine French briar 
pipe. 
William Jensen, 14 out of 25.* 
‘Disqualified for smoking cigarettes. 
The turn out in Class E showed several newcomers in 
attendance. W. Downs, E. Sidwell and Ben de Nio 
never having faced the traps before. All did well, how¬ 
ever, and will, no doubt, be heard from frequently in 
the future. The escores in Class E were: 
W. R. Townley, 17 out of 25, won sterling silver spoon. 
J. Baxter, 15 out of 25, won duPont watch fob. 
F. E. Lenning, n out of 25, won box of 25 shells. 
W. Downs, 6 out of 25, won sterling silver spoon. 
Ben De Nio, 1 out of 25, won leather pocketbook. 
In addition to the above events, the contest for per¬ 
manent ownership of the Eugene duPont Class E Chal¬ 
lenge cup was held. The ten previous winners were 
eligible to contest for this prize, a handsome sterling 
silver loving cup, and all but one, L. T. McCloskey 
showed up. The contest was distance handicap basis, 
and W. C. Corey, being figured as the strongest con¬ 
tender was placed at 19 yards by the handicappers. All 
of the remaining shooters were at 18 yards with the ex¬ 
ception of Sam Reed, who shot from 16 yards, and 
Frank Thatcher, who stood at 17 yards. At the end of 
the first 25 targets, W. C. Corey was leading by two tar¬ 
gets, and the wise one thought he had the cup cinched. 
They did not figure on Dudley S. Wood, however, who 
was but two behind Corey, as was E. E. Handy. Wood 
turned in a card of 22 out of 25 the second round, 
and this gave him a total of 41 out of 50, while Corey 
made but 16 out of 25, for a total of 37 out of 50. The 
cup went to Wood who has been very fortunate of late 
in cleaning up club prizes. The handicap committee 
have decided to place him in Class A in the future.

The next match shot off was the challenge contest 
between Stanley Tuchton, holder of the Eugene duPont 
Class B Challenge Cup, and R. P. Willis, of Penns¬ 
grove, N. J., challenger. Tuchton has been holding ten¬ 
aciously to the Class B cup of late, defeating all con¬ 
tenders. He was keyed up to a high pitch yesterday, 
and expected to add another scalp to his belt, but he
