FOREST AND STREAM 
[Nov. 19, 1910. 
Kamapo Gun Club. 
1’ompton Lakes, N. J. — Attached are the scores made 
at our fall tournament on Nov. 5. The scores are very 
lory, but that can be accounted for by the fact that the 
targets seemed to be extremely difficult to locate at times 
on account of the peculiar light, and the wind was blow¬ 
ing quite hard and was knocking the targets down so 
that it was almost impossible to keep from overshooting 
them, especially when it was noticed that some targets 
dipped while others, apparently the same angle, soared 
upward, leaving the shooter to let go at it and watch it 
continue the erratic flight. Every one made poor scores, 
and every one thought he had no chance to win any 
thing, and it was quite a surprise to find that even with 
the liberal handicaps given no one made better than 79 
cut of 100, which was scored by Mr. Troxler and enabled 
him to carry off the chafing dish without a tie. There 
were two scores of 78 made by Messrs. Hall and Landis, 
and as Landis and Troxler were both in the last squad 
tied with 60 out of 75, and with 79 as their aim, much 
interest was displayed by both spectators and contest¬ 
ants. Both men had a handicap of 1 on 25, and as each 
of them seemed at times to be hopelessly out of it, the 
other would fall down under the trying conditions, so 
that it was “nip-and-tuck” all the way through. 
Mr. H. H. Stevens, the genial trade representative, was 
on hand making friends for his company and shooting 
well enough to keep ahead of all the rest. He admits, 
however, that it was no easy matter, and his score, along 
with the rest, shows the effect of the wind, etc. 
The team race that had been arranged between this 
club and the Northside Rod and Gun Club was post¬ 
poned on account of the absence of members from both 
teams. The contest is to be held in a short time on the 
latter’s grounds, and it is expected that a close and 
exciting race will be had. Both sides are very confident 
and there is a lot of good-natured rivalry about it.

Larchmont, N. Y., Nov. 13.—A strong wind interfered 
with good scoring. The feature event of the afternoon 
was the leg of ICO birds in the 200-bird scratch event. 
.1. C. Ayer and K. L. Spotts tied for first place on 91 
each, and a like tie resulted between J. Henry and S. 
Scott for second place with 90 targets. This should 
make keen competition next week when the remaining 
100 targets will be shot off. 
Ayer showed good form in the 25-target handicap match 
for the Bowdoine prize with a full score of 25, being the 
only scratch man to get a place. The summaries:

Crescent Athletic Club. 
Brooklyn, L. I., Nov. 12. — There was a strong north¬ 
west wind, yet some excellent scores were recorded. 
There were nine contestants. F. B. Stephenson was the 
only scratch man present. He scored 25 straight in the 
Stake trophy contest, and was tied by A. E. Hen¬ 
drickson. The latter won in the shoot-off-—22 to 21.

strange gun and lack of practice formed a combination 
that cut his score much lower than his old-time records. 
Smith shot in a couple of events and then tried a few 
field-shooting style, just to get his hand in for the quail 
and rabbits he Is going after next week. Harig, 
one of the cracks of the old Cincinnati Gun Club, 
“came back” to-day, after an absence of nearly 
five years. Of course, his score was decidedly lower 
than any he used to- make. A very little practice 
will put him in his old form again. Dr. Leighner 
shot a 92 per cent, pace, going straight in the first 
event. A number of the members are away or planning 
to go for a little field shooting, and it is likely the traps 
will be practically deserted until the season closes. 
Weather conditions were hard to-day. A high wind 
caused the targets to make very erratic flights, and late 
in the afternoon a bank of heavy clouds in the north 
formed a background against which it was difficult to see 
the targets before they had gotten well away from the 
trap. The scores:

Gun Club. 
Cincinnati, O.—The near approach of the open season 
had its effect on the attendance, and only a few mem¬ 
bers were on hand for the weekly shoot on Nov. 12. 
Dr. Phillips came to the grounds during the afternoon, 
but was out with his dog, giving him a little training 
run for the serious field work to come in a few days. 
Tarbill, who is comparatively a new one at the traps, 
made a nice score, breaking 91, and going straight in 
the second event. Block, who finished in second place, 
has scarcely fired a gun since the St. Bernard grounds 
were given up, was out and shot in all events. He had 
the misfortune to break his gun in the first event, and a 
New York Athletic Club. 
Travers Island, N. Y., Nov. 12.—Four handicap 
events afforded good competition for the New York 
Athletic Club shooters to-day. The wins were well 
divided up among the contestants, of whom there were 
eleven. G. L. Bready scored a leg on the Haslin cup 
with 25. G. IT. Abbott scored a leg on the November 
cup after a shoot-off with P. R. Robinson and E. F. 
Crowe. The club special handicap was won by G. W. 
Kuchler with 24. A tie resulted in the contest for the 
Schauffler cup, 25 targets, handicap, between G. J. Corbett 
and J. M. Thomson, the former winning in the shoot-off.

Death of Charles G. Grubb. 
Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 12 .—Editor Forest and Stream: I 
very much regret to inform you that Mr. Charles G. 
Grubb, agent of the Peters Cartridge Company, at Pitts¬ 
burg, Pa., died Nov. 4 at 9:15 P. M., from pneumonia 
and a complication of diseases, which had kept him in 
the hospital for the last seven months. 
In Mr. Grubb’s death the trapshooting fraternity of 
western Pennsylvania loses one of their most earnest 
supporters. Mr. Grubb was secretary of the Western 
Pennsylvania Trapshooters’ League, a member of the 
Pittsburg Gun Club and the Iroquois Rifle Club. Mr. 
Grubb was also prominently identified with the Herron 
Hill Gun Club and numerous other trapshooting organ¬ 
izations of western Pennsylvania. Mr. Grubb was a 
Mason of high degree, an Elk and a Knight ^of Pythias. 
Surviving Mr. Grubb are his widow, a son twelve years 
old, his mother, Mrs. George S. Grubb, and a brother, 
Hunter Grubb, both of Wilmington, Del. 
E. Reed Shaner. 
Yale—Princeton. 
Taunton, N. J., Nov. 12.—final contest of the 
Princeton trapshooting team took place to-day on the 
University grounds with Yale. The latter was victorious 
by a total of 191 to 182. A large crowd witnessed the 
contest. White, of Princeton, broke 43, high individual 
score of the contest. A stiff wind was an unfavorable 
condition. This was Princeton’s fourth and final trap¬ 
shooting contest of the season. Of these, two, one with 
Pennsylvania and one with Dartmouth, were wins, while 
two weeks ago, in the intercollegiate championship, 
Princeton was second. The totals follow:
