Ossining Gun Club. 
Over fifty shooters turned out to shoot at the Labor 
Day tournament of the Ossining Gun Club. 
It was glorious weather for a shoot. A stiff breeze 
blew across _ the traps, making the targets lift and 
duck like live things. No phenomenal scores were 
made; in fact no shooter was able to put up a score 
that looked good after his name. 
Of the forty-four who shot through the prize event 
of one hundred targets there were visitors from Red 
Hook. Chester, Binghamton, New York Citv. White 
Plains, Greenwich, Stamford, Ridgefield, Danbury, 
Peekskill and Chappaqua. 
The Ossining Gun Club grounds are capacious, yet 
the twenty odd automobiles parked along from No. 
2 trap to the ^gateway filled things up pretty well. 
Dr. G. H. Martin, of New York City, was the star per¬ 
former of the day with 91 out of 100, which won him 
first choice in Class A prizes, also the handsome cup 
for high score on the winning White Plains team. H. 
B. Tutbill, of Chester. N. Y., was the only other shooter 
to get 90 per cent. This gave him second prize in Class 
A, also the Dupont pin for high eligible score of a 
shooter using a Dupont powder. The Westchester 
County Championship Cup was won by Edward Ward, 
the last of the Ward brothers, famous for years in live 
bird shoots held in the southern districts of New York 
State. It was a very popular win and considering the 
fact that Air. Ward was the oldest man to compete for 
the championship, he is to be congratulated. 
C. C. Gerow, of the Hercules Powder Co., was the 
only trade, representative to favor the club with attend¬ 
ance, coming from Wilmington. Del., for that purpose. 
Mr. Gerow was formerly a member of the Ossining Gun 
Club and his old friends were sure glad to see him 
again. 
The office was in charge of Treasurer A. Bedell, who 
was. glad to have some of 'the burden lifted by the 
efficient help of T. H. Moran and Mr. Gerow. The 
running of the shoot and outside work was handled by 
Cant. C. G. Blandford. 
A word must be said for the bright young men who 
assisted at scoring and in the traps. Ralph Sheely, 
Kenneth Austin, and Harry Alezger at trap No. x; 
Clarence Vroom, Harold Royle, Charles Cormier, and 
Albert Kamp. Jr., at 'trap No. 2, all rendered most effi¬ 
cient service. 
The members of the club who assisted in refereeing 
and squad hustling were: G. B. Hubbell, Dr. R. J. 
Wren, Harold Washburne, and W. C. Holden. 
Twenty-six prizes were distributed in three classes. 
The only local men to win prizes were Amos Bedell, 
Harold Washburne, and Col. Francis Larkin, who, 
though an qld live bird shot, is new at the clay bird 
game. 
In the special handicap, after the prize event F. 
Bedient, of Ridgefield, Conn., got first money; H. Raup- 
tanger, of the same place, second, after a tie with five 
others; and J. H. Talcott, of Stamford, third. Dr. 
C. C. Sweet and Samuel • Webber, Sr., of the local 
club, made their initial attempt at clays in this event, 
Dr. Sweet negotiating 14 out of 25, which was excellent. 
But three teams shot in the county championship, the 
results of which follow:

Miss Laura Boles was the only lady shooting through 
the program and she was awarded a special prize of 
perfumes and toilet waters donated by Blandford 
Laboratory Products Company. 
In the tryout for team place of local members, the 
scores made would indicate a much better result than 
materialized. The five high men were Hyland. 25

burne, 21.

Los Angeles Rifle and Revolver Club. 
By the margin of 98 points the Los Angeles Rifle 
and Revolver Club defeated the Rifle Clubs Federa¬ 
tion of England in a cable long-range rifle shoot. The 
conditions called for teams of ten men to fire one 
sighter and ten shots for record at 200, 300 and 500 
yards, the 200 shot standing, the 300 sitting and the 500 
prone. The match was under purely American con¬ 
ditions, the English doing practically no shooting in 
other than the prone position and being handicapped 
by the greater familiarity of the California riflemen in 
the offhand and sitting positions. 
Without doubt the English team would have shot 
better had their country not been involved in a huge 
war. The local men feel that their English friends 
are good sportsmen to fire at all under the circum¬ 
stances. 
The English organization is a federation of English 
clubs that fires on the outdoor ranges. Nearly 3.000 
men are in the various clubs in the federation. The 
English team fired at the historic range of Runny- 
mede. near Windsor castle; the locals fired on the 
Glendale range. 
The showing of the local men was poor. Most of 
the clubmen stayed away, feeling that the English 
would not fire with the war now going on, and the few 
who appeared seemed listless. Not one good total was 
put up, although a few fair scores were struck on the 
various ranges. The Los Angeles men won because of 
their greater skill at the ranges used, not because of 
any fine shooting. 
The English cable also stated that they would fire 
the second match as per schedule in October, and this 
means hustle for the locals if they desire to avoid a 
licking. Here the English conditions, even to English 
targets, are used. The ranges are 200, 500, 600, 900 and 
1,000 yards, all prone, with one sighter and ten record 
shots, the ten high men to be the team. 
Here the English have the edge on the locals, being 
more skilled at the longer ranges and being better hold¬ 
ers prone. Judging by the scores of the local team 
Sunday, some of the members cannot hold into a barrel¬ 
head at 100 yards, from the prone position, and hard 
practice is necessary to win from the English team in 
the return match. 
This is the first series of international matches ever 
fired by a western r-ifle club, and with one exception 
the first ever fired by any American club. The Amer¬ 
ican team uses the U. S. new Springfield, the English 
team the British Lee Enfield, now being used by the 
British troops in France. 
Following are the scores of the local marksmen:
