[Sept. 17, 1910. 
Westy Hogan Tournament. 
The fourth annual tournament of the Westy Hogans 
was held, as in previous years, on Young’s Pier, Atlantic 
City, N. J. The dates were Sept. 8, 9 and 10. This was 
a tournament in which the attendance was up to expec¬ 
tations, inasmuch as there were over two hundred shoot¬ 
ers who participated in the different events. In addi« 
tion to the large attendance, the management was skill¬ 
ful, and the shoot was run off smoothly and pleasantly. 
It could not well be otherwise with the abundance of 
expert talent in the Westy Hogan membership, and with 
the purpose of that organization to leave no details to 
chance. In the program, the organization states in the 
introductory that “the tournament will be conducted 
solely under the personal management of the Westy 
Hogans. Every member has been assigned to some par¬ 
ticular duty, and no opportunity will be lost to make the 
visit of every contestant and spectator pleasant and 
agreeable.” As to the purposes of the tournament, the 
Westy Hogans state: ‘‘The aim of the ‘Westys’ is to 
make their annual tournament one that trapshooters like 
to come to. Their efforts have always been in that direc¬ 
tion, and the increased success of each succeeding tour¬ 
nament has shown conclusively that such efforts on 
their part have not been unnoticed or disapproved by the 
trapshooters of this country.” 
The program as devised by the Westy Hogans, is 
material evidence of their good faith in this matter. A 
contestant could shoot for targets only, or he could shoot 
in the optional sweeps, which were variously arranged 
so that he could shoot for little or much acording to his 
fancy. There were numerous valuable trophies to tempt 
the longings of any shooter for possession. Then the 
interests of the weaker shooter were in a way safeguarded 
by the Squier money-back system, to which purse the 
“Westys” added $100 in cash. This purse was raised by 
adding one cent to it for each target thrown in the three 
days* and an extra entrance fee of $1 per day exacted 
from each contestant. He, who could not find some¬ 
thing in this program to please his taste, would be dif¬ 
ficult to please indeed. 
In the regular program the Rose system governed the 
division of the moneys, 5, 3, 2 and 1, in tlie 15 target 
events; 8, 5, 3 and 2 in the 20 target events. In the 
optional sweeps, $1 entrance in each event, class shoot¬ 
ing, 40, 30, 20 and 10, prevailed. In the optional sweeps 
on the day’s program, 175 targets, and on the last 100 
targets each day, and on the entire program of 500 tar¬ 
gets, high guns prevailed. 
The trophies were numerous and valuable. They were 
won by contestants as follows: 
Jay R. Graham, Long Lake, Ill., the Young’s Hotel 
trophy, a handsome solid silver loving cup for general 
high average; score 489 out of 500.

Atkinson, Slicher. 
Jay Graham won the Shaner trophy, a handsome dia¬ 
mond watch fob, to the high gun in last five events on 
first day; score 100 straight. 
Charles Mink won the Westy Hogan special trophy, a 
handsome diamond scarf pin for high gun in the last 
five events on the second day; score 99 out of 100. 
Good weather favored the shoot throughout, although 
the wind was high on the third day and was moderately 
high on the morning of the second day. 
Many of the shooters brought their families along to 
enjoy the delights of the Sea Shore. Five sets of traps 
were used, and under the management of Charles North, 
they worked to perfection. After shooting down the line 
of traps the shooters were at liberty to amuse themselves 
as they saw fit during the interval till they were called 
again to shoot. This interval gave them time to devote 
to their friends and families in enjoying the sights. 
Luther Squier was in charge of the cashier’s office, 
which was a guarantee that it was run with accuracy 
and dispatch. He was assisted by the experts, Bernard 
Elsesser, of York. Pa., and T. S. Chalfant, of Atglen, 
Pa. Lloyd R. Lewis, of Atglen, made himself generally 
useful. 
Wednesday was practice day, with the extraordinary 
number of 133 participants. Five 20-target events, $1.40 
entrance, were provided. The Rose system, 8, 5, 3 and 2, 
governed the moneys. L. S. German was high with 97 
out of 100. H. Schlicher and F. M. Edwards were next 
in order with 96. T. Graham, the western expert, scored 
95. 
Sept. 8, First Day. 
The program consisted of ten events, five at 15 
targets, $1.30 entrance, and five at 20 targets, $1.50 
entrance, with an optional sweep of $1. An extra en-' 
trance of $1 for the Squier money-back system. There 
also was an optional sweep of $3 on the total of 175 
targets for the day, and also an optional sweep of $2 on 
the last 100 targets of the day’s program. Optional 
sweeps and double-target events were separate from the 
regular program, and the Squier money-back purse did 
not apply to them. 
The last 100 targets of the day’s program constituted the 
Shaner trophy for the beautiful gold trophy donated by 
Elmer E. Shaner. It was won by J. Graham with 100 
straight. 
The weather was pleasant and favorable for good scores. 
The amateur averages for the day were ' as follows: 
Graham, 172; F. S. Wright, E. Aurora, N. Y., 171; 
Newcomb, of Philadelphia, and Painter, of Pittsburg. 
170.
