PAGE THE PINEHURST OUTLOOK HEW AND APPROVED LINES Fourth Annual Midwinter Handicap Promises to be "Biggest and Best" Couutr's leading- Expert Will Con test for Over $1000.00 in Added Money and Xropliles ill PLANNED on new and the most approved lines, the fourth annual Mid winter Handicap trap shooting tournament promises to be the "big gest and best" in the history of these con tests which are fast building a reputation for Pinehurst which ranks with its international golf ing fame. In addition the management expresses its appreciation of the interest shown by a liberal increase in "added money" which makes the sum over $1000.00 when the trophies oflered in connection are considered; a "classic" American shoot in every meaning of the words. "Send me the program," is the request coming from all quarters and from men who figure in national meet ings of importance winners every where the country's best. The special innovation is the adoption of the "Squier money back" plan which is in such universal favor among high -class amateurs. The regular sweep stakes will include ten regular twenty target events on the first and second days, and five regular twenty-target events on the mornings of the third and fourth days. Moneys in all these events will be divided according to the Rose system, 8-5-3-2-1. There will be an ad ditional optional sweepstake with a $2.00 entrance in every twenty and twenty-five target event in the program. The purses of these optional sweeps will be divided on the percentage system, class shooting, 40-30-20-10, if over twen ty entries; otherwise 50-30-20. There will also be an optional sweep of $2.50 entrance on each the first and second one hundred of the first and second days program ; and in the first one hun dred of the third and fourth days program; division of moneys by high guns. The Preliminary will be one hundred targets, unknown angles, with the handicaps ranging from sixteen to twenty-three yards ; high guns. The added money will be $150.00 the num ber of moneys into which the purse will be divided to be determined by the num ber of entries. The entrance fee of $10.00 includes targets. The Handicap is arranged on the same plan as the Pre liminary, the entrance fee, $20.00. The trophies include splendid sterling cups to the winners of both the Handicap and the Preliminary, a high average gold medal to the leader in the regular sixteen yard events, (600 targets), silver medals for second and third, and a gold medal for the leader in the entire pro gram of eight hundred targets. The professionals will shoot for a trophy to be awarded for the high average in the sixteen-yard events, contesting other wise, only for the price of targets, and being handicapped on the same basis as the amateurs. The Pinehurst Gun Club will posi tively add $300.00 (and if there are fifty entries $400.00, and for every ten entries above fifty an additional $50) to be di vided pro rata among the amateurs who shoot in all regular events (the two handicaps not included) scheduled for the four days of the tournament, and fail to win the amount of their entrance money in these events. In no case, however, will more than the total amount of this entrance money (less price of targets) be paid a contestant. An extra entrance fee of $1.00 per day will be charged each amateur who shoots in one or more events any day. This $1.00 per day plus the "added money", will be divided pro rata among the amateurs. For example, if seventy five contestants shoot each day in one or more regular events, the "added money" would at least be $500.00 and with the $1.00 per day which is charged each contestant, there would be a grand total of ' $800.00 "for four days, which would be divided pro rata among the amateurs who would shoot in all the regular events scheduled for the four days, and fail to win the amount of their entrance money in these events. It must be remembered, however, that no contestant will be paid more than the total amount of his entrance money, less price of targets. It is confidently believed that this purse will amount to a sum sufficient to cover the losses of those who shoot in all regular events based on an entrance fee of $64.00 for the four days, less the price of targets ($12.00), Thus a contestant can compete in all regular events of the tournament, and should he prove to be out of form and not shoot up to expec tations, his four days sport will cost him the price of targets only. A con testant should certainly be willing to pay for the targets he shoots at when his average falls below that point which biings financial reward for good per formance.

You can materially increase your chances of doing so if you use Win chester "Brush" Shells for bird shooting. They are load ed so that, without the loss of velocity or penetration, they make a great big even pattern at the distances most birds are shot. Another desirable feature of Winchester 'Brush" Shells is that, when used in a full choke gun, they make a cylinder bore pattern. This means that you can use your favorite trap or duck gun for field shoot ing without danger of blowing your Dirds to pieces, t or a first barrel load in any gun they cannot be surpassed.
