were the three high men in to-day’s shoot of the Meadow 
Springs Gun Club. Wiley won the SMon offered for the 
best target breaker in Class A, and Kenner managed to 
break more bluerocks than any other Class B man.

Murdock came within one target of tying Wiley for the 
Class A spoon. Wiley totaled 24, breaking 21 of his 
25, and having a dead bird added handicap of 3 tacked 
to his total. Murdock shattered 21 also, but his handicap 
was only 2, which enabled Wiley to win the dipper.

score of 20 was the best made in that class, Emrey fin¬ 
ished sedond with a score of 19.
