There is no rule which compels a
manager to spend his winters in the

CRACKS NINETY SEVEN
FROM EIGHTEEN YARDS

Topping the greatest list of stars
that ever assembled at any one tour
nament, "Bily" Foord of Whining
ton, on Saturday afternoon won the
1S-yard mark championship at the
closing Of the Westy Hogan classic
at Atlantic City. Foord cracked 81
out OF 100, against adverse wind con-
ditions. the latter generally bothering
all gunners, and making the showing
of the victor stand out the more pro-
minently.
Voolfolk Henderson, national
champion, and numerous other title
holders were all set in the back
ground by this remarkable shot. The
Southern star was the only one to
get a perfect start on the first 20
targets, but faltered in later events,
while the winner shot in consistent
form and came out with a straight
shot to forge over AL Hell, Of Allen
town, Pa, who took second place,
by two birds. G. l.. Lyon, of Dur

than some of the sterner sex in her
batch of targets. She broke AZ. Mrs.
Harry Harrison, Of Rochester, n. Y,
was second high gun IN this com
petition. She went through two
events with a clean slate, but fall
tered on the fourth just enough to
put her out of the running.
H. f. Buckwalter, of Royersford,
Pa. won the Durham Handicap. He
tied with Vincent Oliver. of Phila-
delphia, with 80 breaks out of a
possible century of bluerocks, the
former shooting from the 21-yard
| line, and the latter from Is yards.
Buckwalter went the Philadelphia
/ one better in the shoOt-off, 19 to rs
| out of 20 targets, and captured the
accumulative purse of 5000 and tro-
ply. J. f. Couts, of San Diego, Cal.
and Harry Eyre, Philadelphia, each
broke 80 in this handicap, the former
going third by the better score in the
extra set.
