Media Gun Club. 
Media, Pa., March 7.—The all-day shoot and team 
race between the home club, Westchester and Avondale, 
from point of numbers wras a grand success. -Had the 
traps behaved half decent, it would have been one of 
the most successful shoots ever conducted in this part 
of the country. Both traps kicked up—a mauga and 
black bird—and with all hands working with both mouths 
and hands could only keep one of them going at a 
James McKelvey, the genial boniface of Hockessin, 
deserved great credit for the manner in which he 
juggled the squads from one trap to the other. Mr. 
Lewis, the Du Pont representative, took up his favorite 
pastime of running the office and found it necessary to 
cut the programme from 200 to 120, and at that did not 
get the teams all shot out until 6 P. M. 
The team race was a very pretty one, only eleven 
targets separating the three teams. Mr. Lewis won high 
average for the day, 99 out of 120, Mr. Roser, second, 
with 98, which are very good, when not one squad shot 
through an event without being held up with a broken 
or deranged trap at least twice.

Again Shooters in “Show Me" Land 
Show Up the Winning Qualities of 
WINCHESTER 
Factory Loaded Shells 
Repeating their recent victories, Winchester Factory Loaded 
Shells again invade the land of the " Show-Mes” and capture the 
leading honors of the Mid-Winter Tournament, held in Kansas 
City, Missouri, February 18-21, winning the 
WESTERN HANDICAP AT LIVE BIRDS 
through Dan Bray, who made the highest score 
in this event of 34 x 35, shooting Winchester 
Factory Loaded Shells. 
High General Average of 415 x 450 was made 
by Fred Gilbert (tie), C. G. Spencer being sec¬ 
ond with 413, both shooting Winchester Factory 
Loaded Shells and the latter a Winchester Re¬ 
peating Shotgun also. 
Special Gun Event was won by Frank Fuller with a score of 
35 straight, shooting Winchester Factory Loaded Shells. 
The popularity of Winchester Factory Loaded Shells and 
Winchester Repeating Shotguns in this land of f ' show-me-first- 
before-I-buy ” was convincingly proven by the fact that over 
52% of the contestants at this tournament used Winchester Shells 
and 26% used Winchester Guns, and the results speak for them¬ 
selves. It is early yet and there is plenty of time to get into the 
frame by using Winchester Shells and Guns—the famous red 
W brand—
