among the marksmen of the city, and suburbs than any 
other contest this season. 
Both clubs made an urgent plea for every one of their 
members to turn out at the traps, and although the 
Whites had eighteen less rnen than the Meadow Springs, 
they managed to get ten higher men on their team than 
did the West Philadelphians. Consistent marksmanship 
really carried the Whites in a winner. Christman, with 
48 Itreaks, was the high man of the day, and while he 
was a Meadow Springs man, the rest of his team mates 
could not touch that figure. The Whites had two men 
to smash 47—Newcomb and Griffith; and two to get 46. 
Three shattered 44, two got 43, and the tenth gunner 42, 
Although there was little wind, the cold and the snow 
glare was a big handicap to the target getters. Scores:

Feb. 3.—The weekly club shoot of the Cleveland Gun 
Club Co., held this afternoon, at shooting park, was 
another of their real winter contests, to which only those 
who love the game come out. While the day was not 
ideal for trapshooting, some good scores were made 
nevertheless. President E. S. Rogers returned home 
after spending a month in the sunny South, and was 
on the job just the same as ever, and put up a good 
score of 87 out of 100, just as good as 97 out of lOO in 
the summer. Oh, what a club it would be if we bad 
twenty fine shooters like the president. Brother Flick 
was looked for, as he has been away for a month, but 
he didn’t show up. But he will be on deck the next 
shoot, and then John will try to win the brick house 
and lot that is to be put up for high gun for 1912. Capt. 
Geo. Freeman says he will win it, and maybe he will, as 
George is a great shot at ducks. Dr. Brown is keeping 
up his good work for the winter, and Stevens and 
Weeden are both in it and doing well for new ones, 
and both are making points each Saturday. Mrs. 
Stevens say.that if Mr. Stevens brings any more spoons 
home she will call in the neighbors to take care of them.

Larchmont Y. C. 
Larchmont, N. Y., Feb. 4.—A gale, full of icicles, 
couldn’t keep thirteen ardent gun specialists indoors 
here to-day, nor did it prevent Spotts and McCahill 
from shooting in good form. Each got away with three 
events, but Ralph Spotts captured high gun for the 
day with 100 out of 125, while McCahill made one less. 
B. M. Higginson, of N. Y. A. C., beat McCahill by one 
bird, 24 out of 25, for vice-commodore’s cup, but not 
being a club member, McCahill won the leg. Higgin¬ 
son also' did excellent work in the accumulation cup 
race, getting 45 out of 50, and tying M. V. Lenane. The 
take-home trophy was taken in by D. F. McMahon, while 
10- and 15-target scratch events went to H. K. Waters 
with a straight, and J. H. Henry with 14 out of 15.
