Championships; June 21, Fourth Day. 
This was the day allotted to the championship con¬ 
tests; The tail end of the Grand American Handicap 
was carried over and delayed the start. It also was a 
day of crowning glories in the way of presentations of 
trophies. This pleasing task fell to Mr. Shaner to per¬ 
form in behalf of the Interstate Association. The victor 
of the handicap being determined, there was the usual 
rush, acclamations and bearing of him aloft in any 
pose first at hand, all to do him honor and rejoice with 
him over such a grand victory. 
Mr. Shaner’s presentation speech in relation to the 
trophies was as follows: 
“Ladies and Gentlemen: At the instance of Mr. J. A. 
Haskell, President of the Interstate Association, I have 
been accorded the very pleasant privilege of presenting 
the trophies to the winners of the events at the Grand 
American Handicap Tournament of 1907. I think it is 
not out of place at this time to say that it is eminently 
fitting that the greatest event in the history of trap¬ 
shooting should be held in Chicago, the city that balks 
at no enterprise possible to human energy; the city that 
has established the leading grain and meat markets of 
the world and which has never taken the dust from any 
competitor in the race. Having been connected with 
the Interstate Association since its inception, in the day 
of small beginnings, until it has crowned its career by 
establishing itself as the leading tlapshooting organiza¬ 
tion of the world, more than doubling the entries of the 
Grand Prix at Monte Carlo, I feel that there is not 
the shadow of boasting in dwelling on its triumph. And 
I am happy to know that this astounding event is largely ■ 
attributed to' the efforts of the Chicago Gun Club and 
its liberality in furnishing grounds uneclipsed in the 
world, if equaled. This is not a revelation, as it was 
known that such would be the case when it was de¬ 
cided to hold the Grand American Handicap here. 
“Trapshooting is a clean sport, ranking first in this 
respect, without prejudice to any other, not a taint of 
suspicion smirching its garments. Its utility is un¬ 
questioned among those who have given thought to the 
matter, all agreeing that it develops manhood and that 
the regulations of the Interstate Association fix the 
standard therefor, having an eye single to the elevation 
of the sport, the personnel of the participants and gen¬ 
erous rivalry. \\ hat the Olympic games did for Greece 
and the Turner societies did for Germany the Inter¬ 
state Association is accomplishing for the United States. 
On its behalf I thank you all for your cordial assistance 
and have no fears that in future as in the past your 
cheering presence and hearty co-operation will be with 
us. 
The Interstate Association was organized in 1902, and 
at that time trap-shooting was a sporadic pastime in¬ 
dulged In here and there throughout the Union and at¬ 
tracting the attention of less than one in ten thousand. 
It is now recognized as the leading diversion of the 
country from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, 
and from Aroostook to San Francisco, and all through 
the missionary work and propaganda of the Interstate 
Association. \\ hile the organization has been ac¬ 
complishing this result it has never lost sight of the 
assistance rendered by the sportsmen’s journals whose 
labors have been unstinted and ungrudging.” 
Turning to the winners, he then addressed them as 
follows: 
“Gentlemen: To win these splendid trophies presented 
by the Interstate Association, in competition with so 
many contestants, some of whose fame encircles the 
planet, is a consummation devoutly to be wished, though 
no pecuniary compensation was in view. It is an event 
which you transmit to posterity and the certification 
thereof will be an heirloom of which your descendants 
to the remofest of recorded time will be proud. It 
signifies that you possess the qualities that, insure suc¬ 
cess and your descendants will proudly boast of their 
ancestor. It is a testimonial to solid achievement, nerve,
