Tl. 164-M to obey the rules, though it was a new game for us; that we expected the other teams to do likewise. The official im mediately cautioned the Germans and they were more careful thereafter. REFEREE REFUSED GERMAN'S REQUEST One of the Germans was minus his left eye. In shooting at the last 10 targets, this seriously handicapped him. He couldn't locate a left angle bird so quickly as those of us who were blessed with two good eyes. Consequently, he asked. the referee if he could not stand at No. 2 position, instead of No. 3 where others were stationed. This, you see, would enable him to find the left-quarter birds quicker. We made no protest, and I don't think we would have done so, as we were leading by what we considered a safe margin. However, the referee wouldn't listen to such a suggestion. "It's no fault of the other contest ants that you have only one eye," said the official. 1 Stand where they stand, or don 't shoot. " It might be well to mention right here that the American confidence re mained steadfast in the face of the ap parently general belief that we couldn't win at a game virtually new to us. When we were crossing on the steam ship, we had a trap installed on board and practiced daily. The captain of the ship watched us. Then he informed me, rather confidentially, that the Germans would win. He told me that we would be compelled to . shoot their style, and when I said we didn 't mind that, be cause we had practiced it, he said we didn't "know their ability." That cap tain was fooled, as many others. A SUSTAINED CONTEST Allen Wlna Snoot After Two Triple Tie The weekly handicap shoot at the Gun Club Traps developed into a stirring battle between J. D. Allen of Charlotte, W. T. Bell from Kenosha, Wisconsin and the veteran B. V. Covert of Lock port. With their handicaps all three of these marksmen ran over the hundred mark, and a triple tie was recorded Covert totaling 103, and Allen and Bell 102 each. These were of course held to be all perfect scores, and an extra frame of twenty-five birds thrown to decide the affair. People began to wake up and take an intelligent interest when this resulted in another string of perfect tal lies, the handicaps again running all three guns to the twenty-five mark. Being apparent that in their exhibited form all three might very well spend the day at sixteen yards and still be even, the third string was shot from twenty yards. This added handicap did the work. The Tar-heel gun won by the minute fraction of one-quarter of a bird or rather one-quarter of a point. He had a handicap of 3Y2, which added to the 20 breaks to his credit left a total of 23. Covert pushed him to the limit, with a net of 2321 breaks and an allowance 21. Bell was third in this last round with a score of 20. The best actual shooting of the day was done by Covert, who smashed 93 of the original 100, and 24 of the second frame. GUESTS OF TOAI KBLLf Representative) Team of CJolf Ex. pert Try Out the Southern Pine Course Invited by Tom Kelley, transported in Limousine luxury by Donald Parson and Tom McGraw, and wined and dined by H. C. Fownes, a scouting party of the famous Tin Whistles made expedi tion to Southern Pines one day last week, to explore and take a fall out of the Weymouth links below the Highland Pines the picturesque and pine studded course layed out by Potts. Marshaled by Walter Milliken, . and led to the at tack by that old strategist C. L. Becker, they brought a full line of heavy bunker ordnance to bear, and advanced in close formation for a record. The adventure was a great success, but the record is still intact. Discount ing handicaps, the best round reported was an 86, handled by both Chick Fownes and L. D. Pierce. With club handicaps the honors of the day were carried off jointly by Milliken and C. B. Fownes, whose net return of 78 led the field. For future reference, interesting to those that may hereafter plan descent upon the rolling fairways of Southern Pines, we append the scores of the well-knowh champions. C. B.

It was organized with Major J. S. Brown as its first president, Leonard Tufts, secretary and treasurer and Jay V. Hall, vice'-president. The charter members were C. W. Billings, the well known sportsman and trap shot, Frank Butler, Tom McGraw of Pittsburg, Harry G. Waring, Julian T. Bishop, the big game hunter, and A. E. Atherton of Chicago. The future of the field trials in the Sandhills was assured. Encouraged by the very successful run made by the local dogs this year, comprehensive plans were made for the second annual Trials, and $100 guaranteed for both the Open Stake and the Shooting Dog Stake next year. A Committee was named to es tablish a full course for the runs, and to provide for the maintenance and care of birds over a large territory.
