CLOSING SHOOT

The closing shoot of the first con-
test of the season will take place at
Sweeney's Range, Saturday after
noon. Considerable interest is be-
ginning to be evident in the group
plan of five men each, yet, a number
wish to have the two team competi-
ton for our future contests. This
matter will be voted on at the busi-
ness meeting of the club to be held
at the range at 3 o'clock Saturday
afternoon. Other matters to be con-
sidered are as follows: Annual cleo
ton of officers; it has been proposed
and strongly favored that cup tro-
ply be awarded the winning team in
the present contest, and that a
bronze pendant properly inscribed,
be presented to the member having
the highest total score, shot at regu-
lar contests, at the end of the season
not later than Dec. L, 1918.
Membership fees are now due and
the Treasurer will be glad to supply
applicants with the usual receipt.
The highest score at Wednesday, s
shoot was made by Prof Forte, who
in three shots made total of 26 out
of possible 80. Wright Danforth
in round of five shots got 81 out of
possible so.
Some of the members who are
better eaters than shooters think
that it would be we'll to elect Cap
tains, have them choose sides out of
the entire membership, shoot 200
yards, off hand, and the loosing side
pay for the suppers. This important
matter and others will be decided at
the business meeting at the range
Saturday afternoon and full attend
ance is requested.

NEEDS ANOTHER HITTER.
Manager Griffith Says He Would Have Won Pennant If Another GandiI Was Available.

There isn't the slightest doubt in
 my mind that we would have won the pennant last season if I had had an- other hitter of the Gandil type in my lineup, remarked Manager Griffith recently. T can recall any number of defeats we suffered by the closest kind of margin simply because we lacked batting strength after passing the moddle of our batting order, the whole our pitching was excellent last season, and the tWirlers would have done even better had the team behind them hit a bit, better. Give me another hitter and l am willing to take my chances with any of the other strong teams in the circuit Connie Mack has a wonderful ball team, of that there is no doubt but give the Ma t1onaIs one more strong batter and we will be fighting it out with the cham pfons from start to finish"
 w hat are the chances of obtain ing such player?" was asked.
 Under existing conditions it is al- most impossible to buy finished ball player who has had major league sex- perience. I am willing to pay any thing within reason for the right man, but l realize that such players are not available. My scouts searched the minor leagues from one end of the country to the other last summer, yet falled to stumble across a single out fielder who would have helped us.
 T may be able to land a suitable player before next spring, but there is nothing certain about it. I am in touch With several propositions which may pan out. There are one or two hard h1tterS in the National league whom l might obtain. but while the clubs who have these players are willing to let them gO for a consideration il is questionable whether it is possible to get them out of the league because of
