Baker Carries off Palm
At NeV Rochelle TRAPS
Makes Unbroken Run of
so, Within Two Birds
Of Club Record
By !. S. Mitchell

The New Rochelle Yacht Club clay
bird shooters who ventured to their
shooting box on Harrison Island yes
terday had perilous time of it. They
sailed about halfway by boat and then
were forced to creep out on the ice
and scramble over pools of water and
gaping cracks and dodge around minia-
ture icebergs for the remainder of the
journey. Some there were who baked
at the risky trip, but those who were
more courageous enjoyed q first rate
session at the traps.
For the high scratch gun, always the
most attractive feature of a hundred
bird race, F. A. Baker signalized his
first visit to Harrison Island with a
clever performance by topping the
squad with an actual tally Of 95 out Of
the possible 100. This exhibition of
keen trap work was further enhanced
by the fact that Baker made an un-
broken run OF 60, which is within two
birds Of the club record made by Burns
two years ago.
Baker shot ''straight" for the Feb
ruary and Accumulation cups, and this
with the last ten breaks in the Take
Homo Trophy ran his string up to the
Sixty. III was MS pest display so tar
this season, as he has been shooting in
differently at the Travers Island traps.
-Four tied for the high handicap gun
prize. They were G. p. Granbery, +. r.
Stoddar9, j. J. Herold and f. II. Jones'
In order to decide the ownership Of
the trophy a shoot-off was necessary,
and race of twenty-five birds was or
dered. This was won by Granbery
after close tussle. 1t was Granbcry's
hour of fame at the traps in real earn
est. as he scored for the February Cup
and the Take Home Trophy.
Six hung up full scores for the
February prize. They were Eldridgc,
Granbery, Baker, Z. r. Stoddard, Fuller
ton and Herold. AS it was the final
shoot Of the month for this prize it
was won by Cranberry with Ave legs.
For the Take Home Trophy, which is
a. one-day prize, Granbery was the
victor after two shoot offs.
Granbery and f. r. Stoddard were
the leg winners in the Accumulation
Cup. In the preliminary Of ten birds
tldrdge was winner after two shoot
otis, and c. Ledstrom captured the pre-
liminary of fifteen birds with perfect
score.

shoot of the month. The day was not
particularly good, and as result only
one straight score of rs targets was re-
