field, Mass, and of Port-
land, Maine

The regular monthly shoot for the
gold, silver and bronze medals took
place yesterday on the Bishop street
range. A. b. Douglas and Ii. ~;
Thaxter ran q close race for the gold
medal but at the finish Thaxter had
score of 259 and Douglas 26O, just one
point ahead, won the trophy.
The contest was unusually INTEREST
ing, as both Douglas and ThaXter had
won the gold and silver medals twice
previous to this.
This being the third consecutive con-
test by the holders of these two tro-
phies, had each one won the medal he
was holding the trophies would nave
become the property of the winners.
A. B. Douglas was high man with
score of 260, winning the gold medal
as his own property.
The silver medal became the prop
erty of Thaxter.
Will A. Wright, using and-made
22-caliber revolver scored 254, winning
the bronze trophy. Tht conditions
were 80 shots per man at 30 yards on
the standard American target.
Next Saturday the club will hold
telegraph match at 20 yards indoors
with the Smith & Wesson Pistol and
Revolver club of Springfield, Mass. A
telegraph match will also be held with
the Miles Standish club of Portland,
Me-, at so yards outdoors next Sunday.

Moore of Redondo made six of the

Moore used his head when he found the

THROOP BOYS TO

ANNUAL TRACK EVENTS TO BE
CONTESTED SATURDAY
Broad Jump and Pole Vault Conceded

Many Seconds and
Thirds

Although financial considerations will
prevent medals being given, Throop
Polytechnic institute and Pasadena
high school students have decided to go
ahead with their annual track and field
meet to be held at Tournament park,
Pasadena, next Saturday afternoon.
Although surprises are always pos
sible, present indications favor the sem
timent among the sporting public of the
Crown city that it's high school has the
shade the best athletic material this
year. The team, however, is lament
ably deficient in second and third place
men, and If it is beaten 1t will lose be-
cause of this deficiency Barring. re-
versals of form, however, the high
school boys should capture several OF
the first place events.
High school athletes will put in some
hard work this week rounding into
shape for the various events under the
watchful eye of Coach Wilson and
Capt. Rich. Rich will go into the
quarter mile and hurdles. In the latter
event Siefert will in all probability be
his teammate. Anderson is relied on to
make a good showing In the sprints. In
the 8S0-yard run and mile Robertson
and Lynch are the star performers.
Phillips is a good man in the middle
distance and one of the pillars in the
relay team.
Card will be in the weights, assisted
by Allan in the shot put. Both these
athletes will probably be entered in the
broad jump, although neither of them
is performer of first class in this
event Eliot Gibbs is ineligible, and the
high school does not stand in the posi-
tion of old, when the broad jump was
considered it's event for several years.
Halsey Thompson, the elongated ath-
lete of the Y. M. c. A. track squad, is
the strongest man out of the weights,
and no doubt will capture this event.
In the meet on the Bovard field recently
he captured first place in the hammer
throw, and can hardly miss doing the
same Saturday. Pyle is out of the
meet on account of ineligibiity.
Hardly is the only entry in the pole
vault, which will no doubt go to
Throop. Tyler, Parker and Chaffee will
take care of the high jump and should
give Throop hard run for honors. The
broad jump and pole vault are the
events that Throop expects to win.
Capt. Ed Risdon in the sprints will
Throops mainstay in the weights are
Davis and Ross, but they can hardly do
more than place. Sidney Ellis, Brandt,
Harris, Kraft, Pool and Camp are other
strong men.
Throop supporters are claiming that
Risdon will win first both in the 'dashes
and hurdles and place in the high,
broad and pole. This is beyond the
strength of the college team.
A large crowd of rooters are expected
to be on hand at the start of the first
event, and from the number of tickets
already sold 1t is expected that there
will be at least 1900 spectators. The
first event will be started promptly at
2:30 o'clock.

If this is so it is probably to save his

with his knowledge of the racing game
