By JOHN II. BURNHAM

If anyone is inclined to believe that
trapshooting is a merely mechanical
affair and that clay pigeons are much
easier to hit than birds of the feath-
cred variety, let him beware of the
hand trap. True Its name may be
commonplace but-as a deceiver of eye,
arm and aim. 1t is even more puzzlipg
than its larger brother-the automatic.
One of the methods we have designed
for using the hand trap Is to initiate
as closely as possible snapshooting
conditions in cover. The shooter
stands on some elevation 20 or 20
yards away from a fringe of trees. with
his gun below his elbow and the man
with the trap, standing behind him,
gives him the usual run of birds, with
some for variety thrown into the trees.
The targets glance readily from the
boughs of evergreen or hardwood trees.
providing they do not hit a good-sized
limb fairly. Very frequently the
shooter will break a target which has
glanced at a considerable angle from
some limb and practice of this kind
teaches the gunner to make instant al
lowance for the change of direction of
a bird weaving its way among the
trees.

Students Jubilant

Tuscaloosa, May 15.-fSpecial THE out
come of the Auburn and Mississippi A.
and M. series was watched with interest
by the University of Alabama students
and citizens of Tuscaloosa since a few
baseball stories had been published stat
ing that on the outcome of this series
depended the s. I. A. A. championship.
Since Alabama defeated decisively A. and
M. last week and now A. and NJ. defeats
Auburn there remains no possible con-
tention in the way of Alabama claiming
S. l. A. A. championship with winning
of 10 out of q games played, these games
covering series with nearly every Arge
college in the south The students and
alumni of both Alabama and Auburn
feel gratified over Alabama's bringing
the southern championship to the state,
the students are tonight jubilant and are
celebrating the achievement of the Ala
bama team.

Wrinkle the
n field shooting

In this way a shooter through the
medium of clay pigeons Is given prac-
tice which he could get in no other
way except with live birds Under
present day conditions most men have
not the facilities to obtain enough ac-
tual shooting to keep their eye in trim
and surely the above mentioned meth
cd of practice should appeal to the en-
thusiast
Hitting or missing in this kind of
shooting is largely a question of judy
ment of time. 1t is the common error
10 shoot too quickly and hand trap
practice stead dies this kind of shooter
because 1t teaches him that an appre-
ciaoie length of time Is necessary to
make certain of hitting the object at
which he shoots 1t enables him to
discover that he has just a little more
time at his disposal than he has pre-
viously been apt to allow. Inciden-
tally, the nervous shooter is taught to
be more careful.
On the other hand, the slow shooter
who never before could swing quickly
enough to cover lodging bird is
taught to trust more to instinct and
to exercise quicker Judgment. I have
seen some great improvement in field
shooting as a result of a moderate
amount of hand trap practice.

BY HARD HITTING

The Barons scored again in the fourth.
when Hemingway singled, took second on
Clsrks tap for one bag. stole third base
and raced across the plate when Harris
missed Hardings throw to catch Clark
off first. The Barons' final score came in
the eighth With two down Wallace sim
gled and scored, while Graft and Fiber
field were debating as to who should re-
cover the ball which Johnson drove
through the third base for his second
safety of the game.
The three runs registered by the Look
outs came in three separate innings. Har-
ris counted the first in the fourth inning,
when he was given a walk and sent to
third on Mccormick double. He scored
when Lusk lifted a sacrifice fly to Nc
Bride.
Chattanooga second score came in the
seventh and again resulted from walk
This time Kitchens was the recipient,
and he counted a moment afterWard on
Daey's wallop to center.

in the ninth and annexed another run
After two were down Daley brought the
departing throng back to their seats with
a triple to left. Elberfeld drove vicious
grounder to second which Clark bobhed
and Daley counted. Johnson steadied
however, and Jack Johnson ended the
fiasco by grounding to second.

Aagee, first up, waited with due patience
and was awarded with a free trip to first
on four bad ones. Hemingway delivered
with short single to center. sending
Maggie to the keystone. Clark dumped
sacrifice down the third base line and
both runners advanced. With second and
third occupied, Sloan slammed one to left,
while the Baron runners cantered home.
Mcbride and Carroll were easy outs.
The finish Mr.. Clark had visioned in 1.-THE

Jack Wallace selected fast one to his
liking and placed 1t against the left field

settle voices of the fandom shouted in
complacent approval. Arthur Johnson then
