Wilmington shooters are having con-

tain W. A. Simonton, the local trap
shot who starred in the big handicap
event at the Westy Hogan shoot at
Atlantic City. The captain and Frank
Billmyer Of Cumberland, Nd, both
shooting from 40 yards broke 90 out

event. A shoot-off was necessary in
which both men broke i6 out OF 20.
Another shoot-off took place In which
Captain Simonton broke 80 out OF 20
and his opponent 70 out Of 20.
The donor OF the trophy FOR first
place in this event was Captain Simon
ton and before going out to shoot for
the tie he advised Mr. Billmyer that
regardless Of the outcome he would
not accept his own prize, but
would take the second prize. Al
