Biting Breeze
Fails to Worry
Trap Shooters
A. L. Burns Carries Off
High Gun Honors-Ogden
Makes Perfect Score

A field of twenty-one clay bird en-
thusiasts braved the biting breeze that
swept the New Rochelle Yacht Club
traps yesterday, and while the scoring
was pretty even all around the high
gun honors Of the session went TO A.
L. Burns, who retired with two brack-
cts to his name. lie proved TO be the
king-pin gunner from scratch IN the
scratch and handicap department by
breaking a grand total Of 81 out Of
possible 100, first rate bit of shooting
when the swirls of wind that tore
around the traps was taken into ac-
count.
The second victory tailed for Burns
was in the ten-bird special scratch.
Several tied with Burns on the first
trial, but on the shoot-of he had his
shooting eye in the proper focus, and
he hung up a perfect score, which
earned the prize.
Only Perfect Score
The high handicap honors were capt
ured by W. B. Ogden with the perfect
score Of 100, that was aided by total
handicap of y clays. He happened to
be the only shooter Of the day to hang
up perfect score in this event.
The take-home trophy. a one-dsy
event, was won By ]. j. Ham, r., who
broke a perfect twenty-five, but was
helped by a handicap of four rocks.
Being the last shooting day Of the
month, the fate Of the November cup
was decided, the lucky contender being
F. ". Wilson. He had three legs on
the cup. and although he failed to
score on top yesterday the previous
victories turned the trick.
In the accumulation cup, which goes
on for a period Of about three months,
all who returned full scores Of twenty
five were credited with legs. These
were z. Rogers, W. B. Ogden and II.

Vic Voteretsas
Far Too Speedy
For His Rivals
Runner Now in Army Wins
Fast Time Honors Over
Harlem Course
By a. c. Cavagnaro

form than he did yesterday when he
captured the fast time honors in the

the Catholic Club, of West Harlem.
Starting from scratch behind the field
Of forty-ive runners, the Greek runner

Of the 105th Infantry at the Spartan
burg ~. c. training camp. He is on
a furlough Of one week, having earned

Boston on Saturday, finishing seventh,
despite a fall in which be sustained

A Popular Victory
The victory of Voteretsss was as
popular as that of Harry Brown, Of the
Harbrook Athletic Club, who was first
over the finish line. Brown took up
the sport only five weeks ago. His
handicap mas been cut from 400 10
las, but he showed that this recogni-
ton of his ability could not stop his

New York run and Klaw & Erlanger,
the great theatrical magnates, have
booked 1t into all their theaters, the
first showing in this territory is to be
at the Pinney for three days beginning

The wondrous beautiful love story
OF gallant John Brandon, the vigilante
leader and delightful, daring Marian
Stilwell Is a feature of the film.
One sees the discovery of gold at
Suffers mill; the mad excitement
which followed the receipt OF the news
in the remote New England village;
the endless wagon trains of the Argo-
nauts crossing the plains; their des-
perate battles with Indians and out
laws; the orgy Of gold-mad wicked
ness in primitive San Francisco; the
grim but heroic work of the mysteri-
Gus vigilantes in putting to death the
ringleaders of the desperadoes, and
the final triumph of civilization
crowned with riches and happiness for
the hardy Argonauts.
