Jackson Park Gun Club. 
Paterson, N. J., Jan. 2. —The annual New Year’s 
shoot of the Jackson Park Gun Club took place on Jan. 
1, as usual. Starting about 1:30 P. M., we kept things 
moving along at a pretty lively pace until darkness put 
an end to what proved to be a very enjoyable afternoon 
for both shooters and spectators, who turned out better 
than usual on a New Year’s Day. Most everybody 
seems to have other attractions on for that day in par¬ 
ticular. 
The day opened up very pleasantly, the sun beaming 
its beautiful rays down on Paterson for the first time 
in four days, and it made the bo^s feel as though they 
would spend a few hours out at the traps. They were 
well repaid by the recreation and pleasure. It was that 
kind of weather we look for in the spring instead of 
mid-winter. Most of the shooters discarded their shoot¬ 
ing jackets and sweaters, and the visitors, who were 
many, were content to sit outside on the seats which 
run along the front of the club house, there to view 
the shooting, while those on the inside had all the 
windows up and were apparently content with their 
surroundings. 
Aaron Doty, who is at present located at Scarsdale, 
N. Y., at general contracting, was with us again to-day, 
enthusiastic as ever, but a little out of practice. John 
Doty is shooting in great form. Hopper is finding him¬ 
self again, and, in fact, the regulars are all coming 
around again in their shooting, which proves a good 
drawing card for the club. 
There were nine events on the programme, and every¬ 
thing ran off smoothly and withouf a hitch. This was 
owing to the good work of William Dutcher, who acts 
as referee, cashier and scorer. The following were the 
scores for the day:

Lebanon Valley Shooting Association. 
Avon, Pa., Jan. 1.—The members of the Lebanon 
Valley Shooting Association celebrated the incoming of 
1907 with a matinee this afternoon. Perfect weather made 
the gathering a pleasant affair. Not a hitch occurred 
to mar the afternoon’s sport. As a special feature, a 
match was arranged beforehand between A. C. Kreuger 
and Capt. Nat Ressler, of Lebanon. The man from 
Columbia proved the better smasher, and defeated 
Ressler without much trouble. 
The shoot was managed entirely by Nat Ressler, and 
his duties had some bearing on his score. Neverthe¬ 
less, the boys all had a fine 'time, as they usually have, at 
shoots under the above management. Scores as follows:

Nat. Ressler, Mgr. 
Keystone Gun Club. 
Lebanon, Pa., Jan. 3. —The members of the Keystone 
Gun Club held a club matinee this afternoon on their 
grounds, to compete for three trophies, which will be 
shot for in club competitions weekly at live birds and 
targets. 
Event No. 1, 10 live birds, for the beautiful Schmidt 
cup, was won by Ressler, who killed straight. 
Event 2, for the Keystone Gun Club gold medal, was 
tied for by Trafford and Hansell on 22 targets. Trafford 
won in the shoot-off by the margin of one target. 
Event 3, 50 targets, Ressler trophy—a silver shaving 
set, was won by Ressler; but Trafford and Buck were 
very close, only 2 targets difference between the three 
shooters. 
The shooting of Trafford and Buck under the adverse 
weather conditions was commendable. A very heavy fog 
and haze made the saucers very hard to see. Ex-State 
champion at live birds, W. Bollman, was a competitor 
and did very well, considering no practice for a long 
time. Scores as follows:
