SUNDAY SPORTS.
First Infantry's Shoot for State
Decorations.
Interesting Cross-Bow Contest-Alameda Boat
Club Regatta-Rihe Scores of Swiss
and German Marksmen.

An army of marksmen assembled at Shell
Mound Park yesterday at the call of the
AdJutant-General of the State 1t was the
u&y set Tor the final State shoot of the First
regiment, and the men showed up in large
numbers
only such guardsmen were allowed to par
ucipate as had made so per cent at the pre-
hminary practice. Those making % points
VIII receive bronze decoration, those max
ing 20 points n silver decoration, and all
making As points receive a gold decoration.
Those latter will assemble at a time and
place to be hereafter designated and COM
pete for first and second champion medals.
They viii be required TO shoot Mt 900, 800,
500 and 600 yards, and the marksman max
ing the best average score will be declared
champion, and receive the champion medal,
and the next best man will receive the sec
ond champion medal.
- II Is thought singular that the conditions
under which the champions are to shoot
have not been published in order long be-
fore this time. Many believe that the con-
ditions should have been known before the
final shoot took place.
Lieutenant George II. Strong, Inspector
Of Rife Practice, had charge Of Yesterdays
proceedings and filed the position with
the regiment. Ordinance Sergeant Ii. L.
Pendleton was also at his post and the diff
ferent companies kept him busy dealing out
the necessary ammunition.
THE CALL has before referred to the first
bulkhead at Shell Mound shooting range,
and called attention TO the fact that it is too
low. Yesterdays shooting proved conelu-
siyely what was said in former issue, and
it is to be hoped by the time the next shoot
takes place that the matter will be remedied
Owing to the trajectory of the bullet a tall
man may at any time send his shot into the
bulkhead instead of the target. To offset
this fact 'ieutenant-C Colonel Burns was
compelled take position in The field out
side the shonting-bUX yesterday, but Lieu
tenant A. j. kuddock, who is Teckoned one
OF the best shots in the National Guard
was not so cautious. The consequence was
that his last shot, instead of reaching the
target. pierced the bulkhead and themarks-
man was scored miss.
So far as high scores are concerned the
regiment at yesterdays contest was out OF
luck Private W. Unger of Company 3
captured one aud Private +. o. Young of
Company q the other Nevertheless the
shooting. on the whole, was excellent as
quite large number of guardsmen made so
per cent and over. Lieutenant Colonel
Burns (retired) shot with the field and
staff. Only two men ON the nun-cOmmiS-
stoned staff competed for hOnors. Following
are the scores:
