The Wesfy Hogans. 
Philadelphia, Pa., May 20.—An enthusiastic special 
meeting of the Westy Hogans was held in this city on 
Wednesday evening of the week of the Pennsylvania 
State shoot, and not a small amount of business per¬ 
tinent to the welfare of the organization and its 1910 
tournament in Atlantic City in September was trans¬ 
acted. There were present besides President Neaf Apgar, 
who presided, J. Mowell Hawkins, Harry Overbaugh, 
Lloyd R. Lewis, Frank Lawrence, H. H. Stevens, Sim 
Glover, James Lewis, T. PI. Keller, Jr., H. L. Brown, 
George Benjamin, Luther Squier and Secretary Bernard 
Elsesser. 
Reports from each of the Hogans present were of a 
nature to indicate that the 1910 Westy Hogan shoot will 
be about the “noisiest” thing in the trapshooting line 
in the East during the present year. The more opti¬ 
mistic Hogans predict that the entry will number 175 
shooters. It is generally conceded that there will be not 
less than 150 shooters, and at least 500 spectators there. 
The Hogans to a man voted favorably on the pro¬ 
position to adopt the Squier money-back system for the 
government of the 1910 shoot. Mr. Squier, who was at 
the meeting, was immediately appointed chairman of 
the program committee. The other members of the 
committee are H. H. Stevens, T. H. Keller, Jr., Sec¬ 
retary Elsesser and President Apgar. The committee will 
get to work at once and an attractive program is as¬ 
sured. It will be issued about Aug. 1. Other com¬ 
mittees were appointed to look after various details in 
connection with the tournament. 
An important matter was settled when the organization 
decided that the program should be so arranged that each 
squad will shoot “down the line” twice only on each day, 
once in the morning and once in the afternoon. This 
will supply the opportunity for each shooter, after he 
has “gone down” the first time, to go where he pleases 
for a couple of hours. 
It was also agreed to hold the annual meeting of the 
Hogans on the evening of practice day, Sept. 7, instead 
of on the evening of the first day, as heretofore. 
The result of the meeting was quite satisfactory, and 
the prospects for a successful tournament are brighter 
than they have ever been. The usual campaign of pub¬ 
licity will begin at once, and the slogan everywhere in 
trapdoin for the next three months will be: “Come to 
the Westy Hogan shoot at Atlantic City in September.”
