TrGp-ShOOting is Making
Great Progress in the Country

Figures from various powder and
gun manufacturing concerns, issued
at the end OF the year. show con-
clusively. that more money is invested
annually in the fast growing sport OF
making dust out OF "clay pigeons
than in any sport. with the exception
OF golf Trapshooting clubs do not
spend lavishly on green's or club
houses, and miss that expense
The growth OF the sport is shown
by the fact that forty-eight States
last year held championship shoots,
Conservative estimates are that 50,-
600 names were added to the enroll
ment in gun clubs throughout the
country.
The champions for the year. by
States, are:

Church League last night eliminates t
fiom the league. This IS particularly
reg1ettable, as the Hanover interests or
gained the league

last week. The league rules specifically
set forth that any team failing to PLAY
two consecutively scheduled games elm
mates itself from the league. Last night
was Hanover's second failure.
The team got Off to good start and
il was anticipated that, as they were
the head interests in forming the league.
they would complete the schedule.
The league viii meet shortly to con-
slider applications for a successor to
Hanover. Unless another team is adj
mitted the schedule for the remainder
of the season viii be split.

Y know. we're a funny bunch
You've got to admit it. We think
