he quality improves. too.
This statement is born out by the
statistics OF long run records kept by
the uuPont Company beginning in
1915. when that company inaugurated
It's hong run trophy proposition for
tournaments registered with the In
Ierstate Association This plan is be
ne continued this year with a few
minor changes.
For long runs in 1915 and 1916. the
DUPONT Company gave OUT TIC
watches. 1856 watch ioha and i9iI
oars Eighty of the watches were
won by amateurs and 36 by profess
siCnalS. Scyenty-seven shooters re-
ceived one watch; seven others re
ceived two; seven more got three, and
ne shooter-Art Killam, OF ST. Louis
won four watches.
During 1917 instead If awarding
the shooter second rCng run trophy
'cb for his sixteenth run. he WI be
given a pair of cuff links. Should he
make 4 sufficient number of long runs
to enttle him to a third fob, he will be
sent scarf pin instead of another
fob. A bar viii also be sent to the
shooter in addition to the cuff links
or scarf pin for attachment 10 his
irst fob. If a shooter won one or
more fobs during 1915 and 1916. he
will not be awarded another one in
1917. Cuff links will be sent him in
stead of the first fob he wins and a
scarf pin in lieu of the second, This
ruling applies to amateurs and pro
fessionals alike.
