Dukes and Winslow tied for first place, each scoring 24. 
On the shoot-off Dukes made a clean score till he 
reached bis twentv-first target, and then he dropped 3 
in succession, making a score of 23 with his handicap, 
while Winslow missed every fifth target till he reachea 
the last position, making a clean score there, and break¬ 
ing 21. which with his handicap gave him an easy win. 
Events 3 and 4 were pick-up team races for two-man 
teams, and resulted in ties in both instances, Messrs. 
Colquitt and 
Coekefair winning event 
4 with a perfect 
score, while
