GAME AND GUN CLUB PROGRESS

The Wausau Game & Gun club, re-
Gently organized in this city by local
sportsmen for the protection and prop
agatiOn of game and the promotion
of trap shooting, is making elaborate
preparations for the dedication of its
new club house and grounds just
south of the city limits, by the hold
ing of a "Dedication Tournament"
next Sunday.
Invitations have been sent out to
the members of 48 similar clubs in
different parts of the state and the
responses so far received warrant the
committee in believing that there
will be more than hundred visitors
in attendance from these clubs, as
we'll as five professional trap-shOoting
experts who will be here in the in
terests of different arms and amuni-
tion manufacturers.
The committee appointed to ar
range for this tournament consists of
MeSsrs. K. NJ. Gray, Art Kiefer, Will
liam thinner and Fred 6. WEIGH
mann.
The principal event Of the day will
be l00-bird shoot, which will begin
promptly at $3.50 in the morning, the
large number who will enter this
contest making it imperative that an
early start be had. In addition to
the other prizes, there will be awarded
beautiful silver cup to the member
of the Wausau club making the
highest score.
There will also be five special events
of twenty targets to each, and in adj
dition exhibition and competition
events by the five professionals.
Although organized only about two
months, the Wausau Game & Gun
club has proven one of of the most
popular organizations of its kind ever
formed in Wausau. 1t has an active
membership of 100 now and many
more are contemplating joining.
Splendid grounds have been secured
just south of the city limits and a
club house built thereon. This lat
ter has a wide veranda, extending
across the entire front of the club
and so arranged as to command
view of the traps.
Two of the latest automatic traps
have been installed, and also two new
steel trap houses for use of the men
| i'm charge of the traps. In the selec-
| ton of these grounds especial care
was taken in the matter of an unOb-
structed sky line, and it is the con-
sensus of opinion among those gun
men who have shot at these grounds
that the location is unexcelled any
where in the state, and this was evil
IDENTIFY borne out by the fact that one
day during the past week, Henry g..
McCrossen of this city, succeeded in
breaking fifty clays in succession, and
on the following day ran his score to
10 without miss, which is some
shooting and better than has been
done by any of the professionals who
have given exhibitions here this year.
The Wausau club is proud of hav-
ing the distinction of having as a
member the oldest trap shooter i'll
the state. Joseph Heinemann, a
veteran of the civil war and young
fellow of only 80 years, but who is
still mighty handy with a gun.

FRESHMEN
Can't Play On kenyon's
Regular Teams After
Next September

Gambler, Jan. 18-By vote of the
student assembly, Kenyon college has
determined to go back to the old sys..
tenn of using in athletics only stud
ents who have been atKenyon for one
year. This rule will be effective in
September, 1915.
The rules of the Ohio conference
provide that Freshmen are ineligible
to play on college teams. This is for
the purpose of purifying athletics.
The original ruling was made through
the endeavors of Kenyon in 1906,
when the conference was formed.
Three years ago, the attendance at
Kenyon, through a series Of misfor-
tunes, had fallen so low that 1t was
next to impossible to compete in ath-
letics with other colleges of the
state. Representatives from Kenyon
accordingly induced the conference to
allow Kenyon to play Freshmen until
her attendance should have reached
the number of pupils enrolled when
the conference was formed.
For the past three years, Kenyon
has been playing Freshmen and the
attendance now closely approaches
that of 1905. The assembly therefore
decided to take action and Kenyon
from next year on will not play Fresh
men.
