B. S. A. Shoot. 
The Baltimore Shooting Association held its tenth 
annual New Year’s shoot at the club grounds, Tuesday 
afternoon, Jan. 1. Nineteen shooters participated in the 
race for a beautiful silver loving cup, given by Capt. 
James R. Malone. The entrance was $5, at 20 white 
fliers, birds extra, three moneys, 50, 30 and 20 per cent. 
Hood Waters and Clarence Malone tied for the cup 
with 20 straight. Hawkins, Thomas and Keller broke 19 
each, Shaub 18. 
It was an ideal afternoon, blue skies, balmy air, and a 
lazy, gentle little breeze, too mild to encourage the 
birds to fly swiftly. Many of them lacked spirit, and 
seemed to realize there would be no 1907 for them. The 
scores:

A series of three matches between the_ Baltimore 
Shooting Association and the Keystone Shooting League, 
of Philadelphia, has been called off by the Philadelphia 
team, owing to their objection to. Hawkins and Ger¬ 
man, Waters, Storr or any professionals shooting on 
the Baltimore team. Rather late for them to “squeal,” 
when they have always shot against these same Baltimore 
men. We have but few live-bird shots, while Phila¬ 
delphia and New Jersey claim many, and with four of 
our men barred, it would be practically out of the ques¬ 
tion to get a team. A Social Tramp.
