Pearl Beach Tournament. 
VVm

being present, there will be an exclamation of “stung, 
and a resolution to be present at Pop’s next tournament, 
the traps were set on a lighter anchored in the North 
directly in front of the New Avery 
spot. The guests were seated on the 
was certainly a .gala day scene. The 
the femininity, accompanied by the 
that wreathed the faces of all present, 
ideal picture. 
I he surroundings inspired the contestants with a 
1 '^ rea king spirit. John i aylor broke the programme 
of 150 straight the last day, closely pursued by Less IT. 
Keed with two misses. Geo. Volk, the jovial amateur 
mud pie crusher from Toledo, was there with his usual 
high amateur average, and carried away the trophy just 
as though his wife had sent him up for the solid silver 
nut boat, and he had presented her with same before 
leaving home. This trophy-grabbing habit is growing 
■on Volk, to the extent that he will be one that will be 
much dreaded in the tournament world. 
I °P Heikes and his good wife are in direct charge of 
the New Avery; that gives a positive guarantee that it 
was a continuous round of pleasure from start to finish— 
boat rides, fishing parties, dances, etc. I will tell you 
about the dance. Decollete? Yes, to a reasonable ex¬ 
tent-short sleeves, with a bunch of brown arms much 
in evidence; jumper jackets, exposing an expanse of neck 
bronzed to the proper hue. Coats on the male members 
of this aggregation were passe. Say, do you think the 
atmosphere^ not permeated with good fellowship? Pete 
Rabbit Toi, the king of the St. Claire Flats violists, 
was there, soul-freiglited with dulcet strains. He was 
ably seconded by Pop Heikes on the banjo. The music 
was such that all the guests participated. It was a sure 
gala evening. 
The North Channel Gun Club shoot is a thing of the 
past, but each and every one present will be a booster 
for next year. In this respect it reminds one of Pine- 
hurst, N. C., shoot—every participant of last year became 
a booster for the 
winter resort next 
shoot to 
Tanuary.
