THE STAR HANDICAPS- 1907 
PRELIMINARY (AMERICAN \ pretivinary orn 
of the SOUTHERN GRAND/\MERICAN 

-U.M.C. STEEL LINED SHELLS 
At the recent Big Denver Shoot, which is the last of U. M. C. 
killings, the score board read: Preliminary Handicap, won by Henry 
Anderson, 98 per cent.; The Western Handicap, won by T. E. 
Graham, 99 per cent.; the Amateur Average, won by J. M. Hughes, 
97 per cent.; the Professional Average, won by W. H. Heer, 97 per 
cent. 
We want to be perfectly honest and say that 20 of Mr. 
Graham’s shells were not U. M. C. However, the fact remains that 
the winning amateurs chose U. M. C., had confidence in U. M. C., 
and won with U. M. C. Not an event, handicap or average escaped. 
Take the Shells with the Steel Lining to 
the Hunting Fields.
