FOREST AND STREAM 
[Feb. 12, 1910. 
The Hillside Rod and Gun Club, Flushing, N. Y., and 
the Garden City Gun Club are arranging a match to 
take place in the near future. 
ft 
Secretary Lon Fisher announces that the Columbus, 
O., Gun Club has fixed upon the following dates: March 
17, April 12, June 15, July 12-15, Aug. 18. 
ft 
There were eleven contestants at the shoot of the 
Penrose Gun Club, Philadelphia, on Feb. 5. Paul was 
the only one who made a straight score of 10. He shot 
from the 30yd. mark. 
K 
We are informed that Capt. Arthur W. du Bray, a 
traveling representative of Parker Brothers, during many 
years past, will in the near future move to the Pacific 
Coast, and will have his headquarters in or near San 
Francisco as special resident representative of his com¬ 
pany. 
ft 
The Florida Gun Club opened its season on Feb. 5 
at Palm Peach. The officers this year are: President, 
Yale Dolan, of Philadelphia; Secretary-Treasurer, T. T. 
Reese, Palm Beach; Handicap Committee, J. R. Bradley, 
W. A. H. Stafford and Edgar Murphy, all of New York. 
The club has a promise of a big season. 
* 
Mr. John S. Wright, an expert in the fishing tackle 
and gun trade, has accepted a position with Messrs. 
Schoverling, Daly & Gales, 302-304 Broadway, as sales¬ 
man, beginning Feb. 14. He was with Messrs. Von 
Lengerke & Detmold, 200 Fifth avenue, since February, 
1888, up to the latter part of last year. He has a host 
of friends among sportsmen. 
ft 
The revised target rules of the Interstate Association 
are published elsewhere in our trap columns this week. 
They contain quite a number of changes and amend¬ 
ments, to meet the great requirements and changes in 
the competition, and therefore are worthy of careful study 
by all trapshooters. The live-bird rules will be pub¬ 
lished in Forest and Stream next week. 
ft 
In the shoots of the Philadelphia Trapshooters’ League, 
held on Feb. 5, there was a tie on 416 between the 
Highland and Florists gun clubs, the first time of a tie 
in the five years of the League’s existence. The stand¬ 
ing of the clubs now is as follows: South End, 8 
points, broke 1205 targets. Haddonfield 7, 1215. High¬ 
land 5, 1261. Florists 5, 1230. Whites 3, 1234. Meadow 
Springs 3, 1117. 
K 
Mr. P. R. Robinson, Chairmap of the Shooting Com¬ 
mittee, informs us that the Crescent Athletic Club gun¬ 
ners and those of the New York Athletic Club have ac¬ 
cepted the challenge of the Larchmont Yacht Club and 
will shoot a three-cornered match with teams of ten 
men. The dates are: March 19, at Bay Ridge; April 
9, at Travers Island, and April 23, at Larchmont. The 
entrance is $2.50 a man, and a $75 trophy goes to the 
winning team. 
ft 
At the live bird shoot of the Eagle Gun Club, Manoa, 
Pa., Feb. 5, Staley, Felix and F. Paulson tied on 9 out 
of 10 and tied for first. Thomas was alone with 8. In 
the miss-and-out event, eleven contestants, Staley and 
Felix shot out all the others in the sixth round. Both 
missed in the eighth round and divided. A match be¬ 
tween Beattie, of Philadelphia, and Patterson, of Doyles- 
town, was arranged to take place on the Manoa grounds, 
on Thursday of this week. 
ft 
There were twenty-five contestants at the shoot of the 
New York Athletic Club on Feb. 5. About 5000 targets 
were thrown. Four contestants made 25 straight from 
scratch, namely, J. H. Hendrickson, F. A. Hodgman, 
E. A. Wilson and C. W. Billings. Mr. T. C. Durham 
scored a leg on the February cup. E. F. Crowe scored 
a leg on the Haslin cup. C. W. Billings was high for 
the Westley-Richards gun. Hodgman scored a leg on 
the Stoll cup. 
ft

ft 
On Jam 30, at Salt Lake City, Utah, there was a team 
match between two five-man teams, captained by Dorsey 
Burgess, President of the Hotair Club, and W. S. Vin¬ 
cent, ex-Secretary of the Salt Lake Gun Club. Each 
man shot at 50 targets. In the Vincent team was Gus 
E. Greiff, of New York. The scores were as follows: 
Burgess 43, P. Holohan 49, Guy Holohan 47, Bean 43, 
A. Hofeling 42; total 224. Vincent 50, John Boa 45, 
Greiff, 50, Schefski 45, Hollander 49; total 239. 
ft 
The Pahquioque Gun Club, of Danbury, formed ten 
years ago, organized in September, 1899, held its annual 
banquet in the Hotel Green, Feb. 3. A reception was 
held from 7:30 to 8 o’clock, during which time the 
members of the State Game and Fish Commission and 
other invited guests became acquainted. The menu was 
long and appetizing. Secretary E. FI. Bailey’s report 
showed the club to be in a flourishing condition. During 
the year the club threw 40,000 targets. The banquet was 
enlivened by many good after-dinner speeches, songs, 
stories and an orchestra. Mr. Charles H. Peix, Jr., 
acted as toastmaster. 
ft 
A ten-man team race is contemplated between Balti¬ 
more and Philadelphia. If the match is arranged the 
first contest will take place at Keystone Junction on 
March 8-9, at the Keystone Shooting League tourna¬ 
ment. Mr. Frank Eames, a leading Philadelphia trap- 
shooter, is quoted as stating that “It will be a handicap 
team race for twenty-five men and the ten highest scores 
will count in deciding the event. The scores made will 
count for the intercity race as well as the Keystone 
event, and 100 targets will be shot at. The return half 
of the match will be shot at Baltimore during the shoot 
there on March 16 and 17, and if a third is necessary it 
will be decided during the Eastern Handicap tournament 
at Edge Hill. The final details will be agreed upon by 
the captains of the respective teams, and I have no 
doubt but that we shall have a pleasant shoot with the 
challengers.”

The Targe! Gun Club. 
Decatur, Ill., Feb. 4.—Our two days’ shoot just fin¬ 
ished was not a large one, but as large as we expected 
owing to the weather and the hurry-up call we gave of 
the meeting of the Central Illinois Trap Shooters’ 
League. 
Dr. C. A. McDermand, of Bloomington, was re¬ 
elected President; A. C. Connor, of Springfield, Vice- 
President, and James Grey, of Bloomington, was re¬ 
elected Secretary and Treasurer. 
The League last year was a grand success. The same 
cities will represent the League this year—Bloomington, 
Springfield, Peoria, Farmer City, Decatur. Several other 
cities sent representatives, and the plan is to organize 
other leagues over the State and come together at the 
end of each year for a grand final shoot. Other cities 
in Illinois with gun clubs will do well to write Jas. Gray 
of Bloomington for information about the League and 
the organizing of other leagues.
