Poethlyn Water Bed is regarded as hav-
ing the best chance.
Irish turfmen hope to beat Poethlyn
with Ballybogan, Clonree or Troytown. On
June 22 at Auteuil, carrying 152 pounds.
Troytown won the Grand Steeplechase de
Paris. four miles, 110 yards. 1t is pre-
dicted that he will perform well a Aintree.
Poethlyn is gelding of perfect dis
position weighing 1,025 pounds. Escott,
who trains him, says he is better than
ever before. If he goes to the post in
the Grand National he will be ridden by
Piggot. In his most recent start, at
GatWick, December 13, his jumping did
not please critics. He took his obstacles
rather slovenly and brushed some of
them with his hind legs in a manner
that terrified hackers who had wagered
long odds on him. He did not, how
ever, become unbalanced and covered
the course in satisfactory manner.
Referring to the brushing, one writer
said:-"The race was only exercise for
him and that was the reason he did not
jump faultlessly. He needs the in
spiration of a struggle. Then ne Is
brilliant" Another racing authority
ir.ains that unless Poethlyn jumps
better than he did at Catwick he will
not safely travel the Aintree course,
which has been restored to what it was
before the war and has stiffer and more
trying jumps than it had last March.

Septuagenarians and Boys Make First
Class Scores, to Say Nothing Of
Women, Against Clay Birds.
BY FRANK L. O'CONNELL.

There is one sport which romps along
from the cradle to the grave and that is a
sport which has gained popularity only in
recent years-trap shooting, the sport of
the boy, the girl. the man, the woman.
Every angle of the human race which is
interested in a pastime has taken a chance
at the traps. For many years the game
was exclusive for grown UP men who were
in their prime. 1t is different now. Boys,
septuagenarians, debutantes and dowagers
are swinging the shotgun over the traps
and cracking the clay pigeons almost as
fast as they are sprung.
This year for the first time on record
we have with us a champion woman, Il
champion boy and champion veteran
who has passed the three score and ten
mark. One of the most interesting phases
of this activity in shooting comes among
the old boys.
Away back in 1861 when the North and
South were arguing about slavery and
other things the Monitor and the Merri-
mac had quite a little set-to. Every
school boys history tells him about that
Aboard the Merrimac was j. Il. Breiten-
stein, now called captain He survived the
fight and after the civil war was over he
still kept up his interest in shooting. Ever
was started he has been either spectator
or a competitor.
When the national association decided to
spread out by having competitions for
boys and women old Captain Breitensteii
demanded that there be a shoot for vet
Grams. In golf they have q tournament
every year for old timers in which any
one who is past the fifty five year mark
is eligible for competition. The old Con-
tederate veteran went them one better,
however and he said that he could guar
antee a field Of at least five crack shots
who We're past the seventy year mark
To humor the old captains whim the
veteran championship was put on i'm the
programme at the Grand American Han
dicap at Chicago, and four of the five
guaranteed TO appear faced the traps
III. j. Mayer, a kid of seventy-four, cracked
i6 out of 80 and won the title. James Pot
ter of Chicago, who has turned eighty
dropped only one less. Or. Louis Thiel-
man, of Deer Lake, Wis, knocked over A.
Before getting down to the next one on
tn list 1t may be remarked that DR.. Thiel-
man is the father of seven sons. and he
is very proud of the fact that every one
of them knows how to shoot Five of his
seven offspring shot in the Grand Ameri-
can and made very respectable scores. DR..
Thielmap is seventy-seven and still going
strong. The old Confederate shot, who is
now locatd in Burlington. Iowa, and is
hale and hearty and ready for an argu-
ment at the age of seventy-three smacked
i3 into smithereens. The one missing OF
the guaranteed five was Andy Meaders.
of Nashville. Tenn Little Andy is only
eighty-one and still growing. Three years
ago when he was seventy-elght he showed
such keen exc and steady hand that he
won the Tennessee State championship
with n score of 80 out OF 100 at eighteen
yards, which would have been far enough

FREQUENT At TRAPS
Eighteen Contestants at Travers Island
Shoot Get Into Charmed Circle,
d. !. Bradley Leading.

Some OF the best shooting of the season
was done at the traps of the New York
AC. at Travers Island yesterday after
noon when field OF fifty-eight cracked
away at the clay pigeons, under practi-
cally ideal conditions Eighteen of the
contestants had averages from scratch of
better than 80 per cent. ID. |. Bradley
was the winner of the scratch trophy,
with a total of 95 u. w. Gluck took
home the prize for the best from handi-
cap, after a shoot-off.' +. T.. William
son was the victor for the Travers Island
Cup. All of those who had strings Of 25
won legs on the Haslam, Club and
Monthly cups. w. 5. Silkworth. j. H..
Vanderveer and c. Stein were leg winners
on the Buermeyer trophy.
There We're three special evests, scratch,
handicap and ghost contests, after the
100 target race was finished. W. 3. Ogden
led in the scra tch contest. and the handI-
cap will be. shot off next week. O. c..
Grnnell was the .ghost' leader. This
Competition is one Mn which there is a
white target in each squad. 1t is sprung
at an unknown time. and the man who
cracks it is eligible to compete with the
other squad winners.
Ten of the shooters had strings of -
straight or better which is quite an inn
provepent on past performances of the
season.

NOTES OF THE DIAMOND.

Harry n. Frazee. the Red Sox owner. re-
turned TO town yesterday after rather
stormy week in Boston following his sale
OF Babe Ruth to the Yankees. He de-
cIared that hundreds Of Boston fans had
given him their approval Of the deal.
agreeing that Ruths going would be a
good thing for the club which had become
a one-man team. incidentally. Frazee
added that he had been misquoted great
deal I'm he Boston newspapers. in which
he was made TO say that Ruth was a dis
organizer. The only impression he meant
to convey was that without the home run
king there would be far more harmony
in the club. as the rest of the players
were beginning 10 feel that their good
work was being entirely ignored. Ruth
he said. had kicked over the traces fire.

Ready to Act on
Yacht Challenge

Action on sir Thomas Lipton's challenge
for the Americas Cup through the Royal
Ulster Yacht Club will be taken at meet
ing of the New York Yacht Club on Thurs
day evening. AS yet the challenge has
not been accepted officially, certain de-
tails as to date and place requiring de-
liberate consideration. For one thing, the
New York Yacht Club prefers to change
the site of the series of races from Sandy
Hook to Newport owing to the tremen-
dous amount of shipping in New York har-
bor which might offer interference. Sew
eral weeks ago the Royal Ulster Yacht
club was said to prefer the Sandy Hook
course to any other.
There has been some difference of opin-
ion also between the challenging and de-
tending clubs as to the most advisable
time to hold the series of races. The
Royal Ulster Yacht Club has requested
an early June date. but the proposal has
not been looked upon with favor because
the yachting season in this section of the
is scarcely under way so early
Some compromise date will ndoubtedly
be named, as there is no question what
ever that the event will take place.
Yachtsmen who have had an opportunity
to note the weatherly qualities of the cup
sloop Resolute are confident she will be
a successful defender. They are sure of
the Resolu'e's speed when working to
windward with the sheets flattened in.
1t is just a question whether this turn of
speed will offse: the qualities of the
Shamrock ". in reaching and running.
