We hope before our next contest to have com¬ 
pleted a wide gravel walk around our pool which 
will give us much added space from which to 
cast in practice while a contest is taking place 
and from which regular events may be cast from 
any angle the wind may happen to blow from.

Chcago, Ill., June 4 .— Editor Forest and 
Stream: Below are the scores made in our half¬ 
ounce contest to-day. Wind gusty and variable, 
clear sky and trees for a background. We had 
a good turn out of members, but only a few 
visitors to compete. The scores were, generally 
speaking, not up to the average of the club, but 
Mr. Linder showed us how. 
We believe that C. Lingenfelter’s average for 
five casts in the distance event is a record for 
Chicago, and although two breaks in his regular 
event marred his score for the first five casts, he 
came back and made five casts of 218, 236, 203, 
212 and 202 in his re-entry. Scores:
