Annual Meet of Interstate Trapshooters
Chicago Awarded the Grand American Handicap Tournament Names of Trap-Shooters Forwarded to Govt. for Instructors in Aviation Camps-No Subsidiary Meets for Next Year.

New York, Nov. s.-At the first ses- sion of the Interstate Trapshooting Association's annual meeting here to- day, the Grand American Handicap tournament was awarded to the South Shore Country club, Chicago, where this big event was held last August. After considerable discussion it was deemed advisable not to hold the Pa cific coast, western, southern or east ern subsidiary tournaments this year. Instead, a committee on development was appointed by President Kellar for the purpose of interesting members of sporting and country clubs throughout the country in trapshooting. At each of the forty-six state championship shoots handicap event will be add ed and the amateur and professional championships of each state will be de- cided.
 In compliance with a request from the government, the names of several amateur and professional trapshooters were forwarded, all of whom will serve as instructors at the traps which have been placed at several aviation schools and cantonments throughout the United States For the protection of the amateur volunteer instructors the meeting decided that some of them would impair his amateur status by accepting positions of th1s kitd under government control. It was announce ed that eighty-six traps are in oper ation at the various American camps now, and several more in France. AL ready three million clay targets have been supplied from the home and for eign traps and two million have been ordered to be sent to American and for eign camps weekly. Those sert e0 American camps here are to be used for instructive purposes while those sent to France are intended to furnish recreation for the soldiers under Gen eral Pershing's command.
 In the future any amateur shooter will have the privilege of protecting the amateur standing Of any other shooter at any of the registered tour ments. During the season just com pleted 493 registered tournaments were held in the United States curing which 6,175,S4S clay targets were thrown from the traps.
