high scores, being very dark, and the final shoot- 
ofif was held rather late and caused a falling off 
in percentage. The first ioo targets resulted in 
the following tie:

shot at, with Mrs. Garl a close second with 21.

SHOOTING IN THE WIND. 
H. P. Smith High Gun in Audubon Club Meet. 
Buffalo, N. Y., Dec. 9, 1914. 
There was a good attendance at the regular 
shoot of the Buffalo Audubon Club, considering 
the unfavorable weather for trapshooting. The 
shooters were obliged to face a strong east wind, 
which caused a very erratic target and poor 
scores. The cloudy skies caused very early dark¬ 
ness and the shooters were greatly handicapped 
while shooting event No. 5. 
H. P. Smith was high with 96 per cent. 
The last shoot of the 1914 season will be held 
on Saturday, December 19, and will be a turkey 
shoot, program to be mailed soon. Scores:

begun among the rifle clubs of the country for 
the championship of the United States and a tro¬ 
phy presented by the War Department. 
The following thirty-six rifle clubs represent¬ 
ing twenty-one states will strive for shooting 
honors: 
ature shooting is growing in popularity very 
rapidly in this country. 
England has fostered this style of shooting 
until she has 200,000 members of shooting clubs 
when the war broke out, and their value to the 
country was thoroughly demonstrated. 
The United States will be compelled to do 
most of its training of civilians in rifle shoot-

having a half-inch bull and rings one-quarter of 
an inch apart. 
The c 4 ubs are divided into- three classes simi¬ 
lar to the national inter-state matches and the 
members of the winning team in each class will 
receive medals from the War Department. 
The matches are held under the auspices of the

weekly matches are telegraphed to Washington, 
where they are tabulated and given out. 
The present holder of the Championship Tro¬ 
phy is the Warren, Pa., Rifle Club. It is expected 
that all previous records will be broken as mini- 
ing on gallery ranges until Congress manes some 
provisions for the building of outdoor ranges. 
CINCINNATI REVOLVER CLUB. 
The first of the season’s club team matches 
was shot on December 9, the Reds mustering 
nine out of their thirteen members, and the 
Blues having only four men at the firing points. 
The Reds had to use four penalty scores, and 
the Blues, none, which gave the victory to the 
Reds, although the average of the actual con¬ 
testants was the same, a little over 183. A H. 
Kenan, of the Reds, headed the crowd with a 
score of 216, this total was made up of 19 shots 
in the black, nine of them being centers, and 
six shots in the 7 and 6 rings. He started off 
with a 46, got 47 on his third target, and fell 
below 42 on only one target. Second high score 
was made by G. E. Pugh, of the Blues, who 
put 18 shots in the black, seven of them in 
the center, and the others in the 7 and 6 rings, 
with one in the 5 ring for a total of 211. A. 
A. Yungblut, a Red member, was third; he found 
the black nineteen times in his 25 shots, but 
failed to get but five centers, his total being 205. 
F. Cist, another Red man, came next with 197; 
after a bad start he found himself on his third 
target, getting three centers, an eight and a 
seven, total 45, and on his fifth target a nice 
group of three tens, a nine and an eight, total 
47. The struggle for the high five-shot score 
resulted in a tie on 47 between A. Kenan, Cist 
and Pugh. The button went to Kenan as he had 
a 46 to back his 47, while Cist’s next high tar¬ 
get was 45, and Pugh’s 44- 
Following are the conditions governing the 
club team matches for this season: Each mem¬ 
ber of a team is supposed to be present and shoot 
on his respective team. Should, for any reason, 
a member of a team be absent, his average minus 
10 shall be used in lieu of his being present and 
shooting. New members on joining the club 
shall be added to a team, and, to even up the
