State Trophy Which is Held Here
Team Will Accept.

challenge has been received by
officers Of the Marshalltown Gun Club
from the Grinnell Gun Club, in which
the latter want a chance at what is
given in the challenge as the L. c..
Smith challenge cup, but the trophy
doubtless referred to is the Hunting
and Fishing trophy. altho both are held
by the local club. The Marshalltown
Gun Club, under the conditions which
the trophy is held. reserves the right to
name the time and place. AS soon as
1t is determined that 1t is the Hunting
and Fishing trophy the Grinnell shoot
ers are after, the local club will ac-
cept, but until then the place OF meet
ing, and the time, will not be named
1t is presumed the Hunting and
Fishing trophy is the cup referred to
as 1t is five-man team trophy which
has been held by the local club for
about twelve years. 1t was originally
put UP by a New York sporting paper
for the Iowa association. Marshalltown
first won it from Des Moines and later
successfully defended it from the OF
tumwa and Waterloo teams. The race
by which 1T must be won is a peculiar
and old fashioned one. and is Of thirty
singles and ten doublesJ making fifty
targets for each man over traps. Mem
bers of the team must be members OF
the same club for at least one year
prior to the shoot. The L. C. Smith
trophy is held by G. P. Cook. who won
it at the state tournament four or five
years ago.
