The claim Of Captain william c. Webb
Of the Salt Lake high school cadet bat
talon that his rifle team did better work
at night was sustained by this weeks
targets In the national inter-city high
school contest. The five boys to qualify
out OF the ten-man team all shot their
scores after .. m. Friday. Some OF the
boys did not appear at that time and
when they performed yesterday fore
noon their score was too low to count.
This weeks contest was against the
Tucson. Ariz. high school and the local
team beat It's former tournament record
by eleven points. Captain Webb was SO
well pleased with the increase that he
may Insist on all official scores being
made at night The individual and club

quit the turf, owing to i'll health, and
so far this winter his racing partner,
Frank G.. Hogan, has shown little in

even few days visit at the JuareZ

but they owned and raced a number Of
shifty performers, and their string al
ways had strong following, as they
raced their horses always to win. Both
were turfmep of wide popularity when
active in the game, and that they are
missed from the ranks OF extensive
horse owners is a statement which can
be made without question. They were
enthusiastic for racing az long as they
