Championship Trapshoot
For Atlantic Squadron
More Than One Thousand Officers and Men Will Participate
in Tournament at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, on March
49,. 25, with Sanction Of Navy Department.

Trspshootins has become such a part
of the United States navy since the ad-
vent of the hand trap, which permits the
shooting of targets on ship board, that
teams from the ships comprising the At
lantic Squadron will engage in the first
annual trapshoOting championship of the
United States navy, Atlantic Fleet, at
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. on March %.
The shoot is registered under the
auspices of the Interstate Association for
the Encoura cement of Trapshooting, and
will be managed by the officers OF the
Red Cross Gun Club of the L. s. S.
Solace.
The Red Cross Club Of the Solace is
the pioneer gun club of the navy. The
Solace on its trip from New York to San
Francisco to the Panama-Pacific EXPOSE
ton through the Panama Canal carried
several dozen hand traps so that the off,
GERS and men could enjoy the exhilirating
sport of trapshooting at sea. Since then
thousands of private yachts, ocean grey
hounds and the most common ships that
travel the briny deep never leave port
without plenty Of hand traps. Trap
shooting isn't confined to the land Hb-
Der" by any means. 1t is only-a matter
The Washington herald. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1906-1939, 1916-03-19

OF time when trapshooting will be one
of the main amusements Of ocean travel,
This shoot. however, will not be held
on the water, for there will be too many
contestants II is expected that more
than a thousand officers and men will
participate in the championship, for eV-
cry one connected with the Atlantic
Squadron is eligible.
Since the formation of the Red Cross
Gun CLUB on the U. S. S. SolaCe. gun
clubs have been formed on the L. s. S.
Wyoming. U. S. S. Texas, U. S. S. Cum
berland, u. S. S. Chepenne and U. s. S.
Vermont. Trapshooting, as a sport has
made greater progress in the United
States navy than among the clubs on
land, possibly, because nearly every one
in the navy understands the handling OF
firearms. 1t is the desire OF every one to
shoot accurately, too, and in trapshooting
it is not a difficult matter to find out just
how steady one is, for the hand and the
eye must work in unison.
This is the most important tournament,
in a trapshooting way. that has ever
been scheduled, because 1t has great pos
sibilities, both for the sport and the
navy

who is a candidate for the heavyweight
boxing championship title, and will at
tempt to take it away from Jess Willard
in New York on March %, is a trap
shooter. There is nothing remarkable in
Moran being a trapshooter, for there are
several hundred thousand trapshooters in
America, but just because he is Moran.
1t is worth mentioning at this particular
time. One week from now it might be
too late-and again it might not.

New York, March lS.-Why 90 South
in the winter for your golf? This
question has been answered by the es-
adjustment of at least ten new indoor
golf courses in the hotels and depart
ment stores of this city. Among the
stars on the indoor courses is Gilbert
Nichols, who is to be seen daily driv-
ing the little white ball around a net
ted course in one OF the department
stores. Nichols hold several cham
pionships and played a remarkably
good game in the last national open
championship. Indoor golf. he says,
furnishes fully as much pleasure as the
outdoor game and keeps a player from
going stale in the winter. Most of the
indoor links will remain open until
May.

Treat Onion As Delicacy. Like the Cream Puff
Nature Intends It Should Be Eaten Sparipgly

"HE onion is a small but powerful
object which springs from the
- bosom of Mother Earth in a per
fumed state, after which it IS eaten in
a greedy and voluptuous manner by
people who do not expect to go out into
society for two weeks. When . talka-
live male guest VINO has just eaten a
plate of red onions ambles into a Sc
lect social gathering and begins to
,iisperse rapid-fire conversation on the
evening air, he creates almost as pro-
found a sensation as the man in a full
dress suit who has everything in place
except his shirt studs
The onion Is recommended by all
firstclass doctors as a spring tonic
