 know that they can get a long-wearing, satisfaction giving, real suit that com pines utility with style, and
 is the best for both purposes that can be produced (of par ticular value to men around machinery). Stylish enough to wear instead of the suit

Slippern disposed of all of his stock and machinery and is going to Southern Cali fornia prepared to remain there, providing the Outside agrees with him.
 The woodworking ma chimes were sold to Charles Bergman and most of the stock was sold TO All 'erson Bros. & Nerland. The build ing was not sold, MT, Slip perm having retained 1iS real property holdings for use i'll case he does not like the Outside.
 MT. Slippern came North in 1900 and has been locat- ed in practically all the worthwhile camps, includ- ing Fairbanks, Ruby, ldita- rod, Brooks and lastly Me- mana. He located here when the town was first establish ed and has been a moving spirit in business and frater- nal circles, and a veteran member of the Nenana school board.
 The oldtimer will go to Los Angeles, where the other members of the Slip :pern family have resided for some time past. He leaves Nenana with the best wishes of the entire community.

PSHOOT|NG AS
A COLLEGE SPORT
Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Will
liams, Pennsylvania and Dart
mouth Have Associations.
BY Peter p. Carney.

The Intercollegiate Trapshooting League
has been revived with Yale, Harvard,
Williams, Dartmouth, Pennsylvania and
Princeton as members. Cornell is q pos
siblc entrsnt. The intercollegiate Trap
shooting League existed for number of
years, but with America going into the
war; the league, like many other things
passed away.
Right now, however, there is more
interest in trapshooting in the colleges
than ever before and it wasn't at all
difficult to form new organization which
will be conducted along better lines than
the old league and it will be strengthened
from year to year. Under the constitution
and bylaws of the new organization,
Yale will be given the presidency this
year; Princeton the ice-presidency; Dart
mouth the secretaryship and Harvard the
treasurer. There will also. be graduate
secretary, who really will pilot the league
This graduate secretary will be a member
of the advisory board, and it will be his
chief duty to see that the league progresses.
There will be club matches, events for
beginners, freshmen, inter-class matches,
home and home shoots with other colleges
in the league, winding up with the inter
collegiate trapshooting championship on
or about May % This championship
event will more than likely be staged un-
der the auspices of the Yale Gun Club over
the traps of the New Haven Gun Club.
The colleges that do not have officers
this year, will be remembered next year,
when Pennsylvania and Williams will have
officers and two of the other colleges will
help to run the league from the outside.
The same is true of Cornell if the Ithacans
come in Columbia wanted to ioinethe
organization, buS cannot find convenient
place in which TO shoot.
Trapshooting in the colleges was first
taken up at Dartmouth and Princeton and
Harvard followed the same year-about
1910 Pennsylvania, Penn State, Cornell,
Yale, Columbia and Williams came along,
Columbia won the intercollegiate cham
pionship once and Yale won it nine times
in succession. Princeton and Yale have
veteran teams. Princeton is further adj
vanced than any of the other colleges in
shooting, there being six traps IN operation
at the Princeton University Gun Club.
1t is the plan of the league to spread
over the entire country, to get colleges all
over to Join, and to shoot telegraphic
matches with teams of distant points and
team matches with those who are nearby.
Trapshooting will not become as popu-
lar as baseball or football among col
legians but it makes mighty fine college
sport
