ORGANIZING BRIDGEPORT RIFLE CLUB. 
Prominent sportsmen here are progressing 
with the organization of the Bridgeport Rifle 
Club which is likely to absorb the Park Rifle 
Club, famous as a one-time national champion, 
and the Seaside Shooting Club, a veteran organi¬ 
zation. The club plans an establishment with 
clubhouses and traps that will be second to none 
in the United States. The Union Metallic Cart¬ 
ridge Company, whose main plant is located here, 
will assist the club in securing an ideal site. 
Shooting in all kinds of weather and at all 
hours is to be possible at the range- There will 
be three butts carrying thirty-six targets in all 
at twenty-five, fifty and one hundred yards, all 
usable at the same time from one covered point. 
The targets will be lighted to permit of shooting 
after dark. 
Among those behind the project are Major 
Louis J. Herrmann, local commandant of the Con¬ 
necticut National Guard; Jerome Orcutt, William 
M. Thomas, Henry P. Camp, A. Joseph William¬ 
son, Henry Sanford, C. W.' Vanstone, C. R. Dis- 
brow, E. W. Phelps, John W. Hessian, L. W. 
Burgess, Archer Wilson, H. Flack, B. S. Lind¬ 
sey, H. Armstrong, F. R. Banks, W. K. Mollan 
and J. T. L. Hubbard.
