LOS ANGELES RIFLEMEN DEFEAT ENGLISH 
TEAM, 950-917. 
English Woman Does Remarkable Shooting. 
By the score of 950 to 917 the riflemen of the 
Los Angeles Rifle and Revolver Club defeated 
the Rifle Clubs Federation of England over the 
200, 500 and 600-yard ranges yesterday. What is 
the greatest part of the victory to the local men 
is the fact that the match was shot precisely un¬ 
der English conditions as chosen by the English¬ 
men, ranges, targets, number of shots and posi¬ 
tions being the regular game of the English and 
unfamiliar to the local sharks. 
In August the local men defeated the English 
under American conditions at 200, 300 and 500 
yards by a margin of 98 points. The English 
conditions were used Sunday to give the British 
riflemen a chance to retrieve the series that 
started against them, but there was no stopping 
the Los Angeles sharks by new conditions and 
new targets. 
The bullseyes were reduced to the English 
standard, five inches at 200 instead of eight, with 
the “four” ring but twelve inches across instead 
of twenty-six, the “three” ring but twenty-one 
inches across instead of the huge American ring 
nearly four feet across. At 500 the bull was cut 
to sixteen inches and at 600 to eighteen inches, 
the ring being cut proportionately. 
For Los Angeles G. L. Wotkyns was high man 
with 99. High “man” for England was a lady, 
Mrs. Lennard, with 95 out of the possible 105. 
The English woman made this with the heavy 
British service rifle, the Lee-Enfield, as now used 
by the British troops on the Continent. The Los 
Angeles team averaged per man as high as the 
high shooter for England and seven of the local 
team beat the high score for the English aggre- 
gation. The total 
scores were as

DU PONT TRAPSHOOTING CLUB. 
He Put in His Thumb and Pulled Out a Plum. 
An even forty shooters lined up at the traps 
at the Du Pont Trapshooting Club yesterday to 
compete for one dozen of “Dol” Richardson’s 
R. & R. plum puddings of the kind that have 
made Dover and Delaware famous for years. 
The cool air and the strong wind which played 
havoc with the flight of the targets militated 
against good scores, although Harry P. Carlon, 
Walter Tomlinson and Laurence D. Willis, the 
professionals, each scored 23 in one of their 
events. This was very good shooting, indeed, 
and the dearth of scores of this nature is the best 
evidence of the hard conditions under which the 
shooting was done. 
There was also a big chicken shoot at Clay- 
mont, and Bill Robelen was staging another one 
of his successes in this line, and many of the 
localities journeyed to the suburbs to bring home 
a fowl. The plum puddings, however, were hailed 
with glee by all present at the Du Pont Club and 
Mr. Richardson and the club management were 
accorded a vote of thanks for thus endeavoring 
to make inroads into the high cost of living. 
Every man who won a pudding went away well 
pleased with his prize, and those who were not so 
fortunate left wishing that they had broken just 
a few more targets. 
In Class A, a keen race developed between Bill 
Wood and Billy Foord, who both scored 22 out 
of 25, in the puddin’ event. However, Harry 
Carlon, a late arrival, jumped into the limelight 
by getting 23 out of 25, which placed him in first 
position, and gave him a cinch on No. 1 pudding. 
Foord and Wood were due to spin the wheel for 
pudding No. 2, but the former stepped in and 
won the miss and out event prize, and as no 
shooter was eligible to win two puddings, Wood 
took No. 2 in Class A. 
In Class B, Walter Tomlinson, W. C. Corey 
and E. M. Ross tied for high honors with score 
of 20 out of 25. In a shoot off between the three, 
Tomlinson scored 23, Corey 20 and Ross 19, giv¬ 
ing the first two the pudding prizes. 
In Class C, E. E. Handy with 21 and Dave 
Lindsay with 20, won first and second pudding 
prizes respectively. 
In Class D, E. I. LeBeaume with 19 won first 
prize, and Bill Francis, W. C. Popp' and E. C. 
Ferriday tied for second on 16. In the spin of 
the wheel Francis proved the lucky man and went 
home with the pudding. In Class E, Percy Gar¬ 
rett and Park Postles were the only contestants, 
and both broke 10 out of 25, and were accorded 
puddings. 
The scores for the puddings were:
