Interclub Championship. 
Larchmont, N. Y., April 6.—The club trapshooting 
season climaxed to-day with the most interesting and 
largely attended event ever held in these parts among 
clubs not shooting under guidance of Interstate Asso¬ 
ciation. Sixteen clubs, represented by fifty-three gun¬ 
ners shot for the honor of Interclub Champion. R. L. 
Spotts, whose entire season’s work has been high and 
consistent, won the title with a margin of 3 birds, his 
total being 183 out of 200, only 2 birds less than the 
score that won National Amateur Championship. Sec¬ 
ond man was J. H. Vanderveer, of Crescent A. C., with 
180, while third fell to C. H. Newcomb, of Philadelphia 
with 178. Much of the Olympic timber shot away off 
form, making less than 160. 
George Cyon was honor professional with 186, followed 
by Lester German, whose score tied Mr. Spotts’.

East Millstone, N. J., April '4. —The East Millstone 
Gun Club held one of its most successful shoots on 
March 30. In all, twenty-four shooters faced the traps 
in the different events. Three professionals were present 
to show us the way—Messrs. Stevens, Fanning and 
Apgar. Stevens was high professional with 139 out of 
150. Thomas Howard, of Peapack, was high amateur 
with 130. C. E. Welsh, of the home club, was second, 
122, closely followed by H. H. Miller, of Peapack, 120. 
The weather was ideal for shooting, and those present 
voted the shoot one of the best ever.

A New Gun Club. 
A GUN club has been organized in connection with the 
New Jersey State Rifle Association, at Sea Girt, and 
two clay target traps will be installed. The officers 
elected were General Bird W. Spencer, Passaic, N. J., 
President; Lieut-Col. W. Libbey, Princeton, N. J., 
Vice-President; Col. Chas. A. Reid, Trenton, N. J., 
Tpasurer; Capt. C. A. Sylvester, Princeton, N. J., 
Field Captain; H. G. Aspell, Passaic, N. J., Secretary. 
The club has applied for membership in the New 
Jersey State Sportsmen’s Association, and the sanction 
for an Interstate tournament has been asked for. If 
granted, tournament will be held at Sea Girt, July 17 
and 18. 
In addition to the regular Interstate program, there 
will be a match each day at 25 targets, and handicap, 
prizes for the Sea Girt championship, for which three 
valuable gold trophies will be offered. 
The club has upward of two hundred members, many 
of whom are noted trapshots^ and it should be one of 
the most active clubs in the State of New Jersey.

Y OU know mallards—wisest and wariest of all 
ducks—Solomons of the air. You can’t knock 
down mallards with a paddle nor can you get them 
with a gun that plasters its shots all over the face 
of creation. 
A mallard shot is generally a long shot, and long 
shots require a hard-shooting, close-shooting gun. 
That’s why the long-headed man who goes to a 
mallard country takes a Lefe/er. When he swings 
it on a towering pair of mallards he does not ques¬ 
tion the result. He know it— 
TWO CLEAN KILLS 
The reason a Lefever kills clean and sure and 
far is Lefever Taper Boring. 
But if you buy a Lefever for the taper boring 
alone, you will get more than your money’s worth. 
For instance, you will never be handicapped with 
looseness at the hinge joint. The exclusive Lefever 
screw compensates for a year’s wear by a trifling 
turn that you make yourself with a screwdriver. 
LEFEVER 
SHOT GUNS 
Sixteen other exclusive Lefever features and Lefe¬ 
ver simplicity and strength make the $28 gun the 
peer of any $50 gun on the market. Upwards to
