FOREST AND STREAM 
[April 25, 1908. 
The Columbus Gun Club. 
The Saturday afternoon shoot, April 18, was greatly 
handicapped by the heavy wind and rain storms that 
kept coming in with regularity during the entire after¬ 
noon. It was necessary to take a dodge in between the 
E uffs to get a look at the rocks of blue. The scores made 
y those who braved the elements to have a little shoot¬ 
ing were very creditable indeed. 
The Hunter Arms Co. trophy was landed by Mr. Ben 
Bolin, who broke 116 out of the 30 singles and 17 out of 
the 10 pair, making the good total of 43 out of 50. 
Mr. Wm. Fishinger landed at the top on the secretary 
trophy, 25 targets Irom 19yds., both barrels, breaking 22 
in the storm. 
Dr. Van Fossen did two 15 straights in the Hunter 
Arms Co. trophy, and fell down in the doubles, which 
was hard luck, after getting such a nice start. The 
Doctor is beginning to find his way back to his old form. 
Roundy made two 24s, the nearest he could come to 
25 straight in the weather. He said that he just felt like 
breaking them all, which he will do in the spring tourna¬ 
ment. 
Luther Squier reports quite regularly, and broke his 
share at the Buckeye Lake tournament. At our Saturday 
afternoon shoot, \ an and Roundy got after him in the 
last 25, and talked him out of several targets. 
L. VV. Cumberland, of the U. M. C. force, shot his 
first on the grounds since the new ruling came in, and 
the boys were all glad to have Mr. Cumberland in the 
game. With a little practice we expect to see him mak¬ 
ing some high scores, because he can do it. 
Harry Smith landed a 20 straight, but did not do as 
well as usual in the trophy races. When the Marchy- 
April weather blows over, then look out. 
Frank Burris is getting into the harness in fine shape, 
and will give a good account of himself in the shoots to 
come. Frank shqt at Buckeye, a few hours, the last 
day of their tournament, and did fine for the existing con¬ 
ditions. 
Dr. Parker, of Cleveland, O., was largely in evidence 
at the Buckeye Lake tournament, and anybody that has 
even had a thought that the Doctor was not entirely up 
.to the .minute m the trapshooting game, had better get 
in line. The Doctor entertained the crowd from start to 
finish, and finally found a gun that shot some and went 
an and slaughtered them. After it was all over and there 
was nothing to do but go into John Glasses’ dining room 
and dispose of a fish dinner, it was here that the Doctor 
shone. 
Pop Heikes’ total of 378. out of 400, in the wind and rain 
was a mighty fine record for the Buckeye tournament, 
and goes to show again that the good Pop is hard to 
pass in rough weather. Luther Squier broke 372 and 
Fred LeNoir 366, both being good scores for the irregu¬ 
larity of the targets. 
The grounds of the Columbus Gun Club are in fine 
shape for the spring tournament, and it is predicted that 
some fine scores will be made at this meet. Indications 
show that a big crowd is coming, and we are in good 
shape to take care of them.

Gun 
Club. 
. Glens Falls, N. Y., April 18.—Despite the rain this 
afternoon, which kept down the attendance somewhat, 
ten gun bugs turned out to the regular shoot, and while 
the programme was shortened, owing to the disagreeable 
weather, some of the boys managed to do pretty good 
work. Wiltse had his eye on them from the start, and 
landed first place with 82 per cent, Witt, whose gun was 
giving him considerable trouble, coming next, 75 per 
cent, while Dr. Oatman and Dr. De Roode followed in 
close order. 
During the week a man has been kept busy getting 
our grounds in shape for the tournament next Saturday, 
an extra set of traps being installed, lunch room fixed 
up, etc., so that we are now prepared to take care of 
the boys in good shape, regardless of the weather. To¬ 
day’s scores follow:
