ARDM0RE GUN CLUB
WILL SEND MEN TO
STATE MEET TULSA

The Ardmore Gun club expects TO
send quite a large delegation To the
state meet at Tulsa, May Il. Is and 19,
and Secretary Don Cochran is busy
lining up the various shooters for that
event.
1t has been suggested that the local
club in order to stimulate more inter-
est in trap shooting organize squads
from the kiwanis, Rotary and Lions
clubs ana send them TO compete with
like clubs Of Tulsa on the occasion Of
the state tournament
The Ardmore delegation are going to
Tulsa with the ayowed determination
Of bringing the next annual tournament
TO this city. and for that reason the
I live wires from the Chamber of Com
merce and other civic bodies will lend
their Influence to the movement.
The tournament brings together an
nually large number of the most ia
nous marksmen in the country. and
attracts lot of visitors wherever held.
Ardmore has been in the trap shooting
game for some time and is looked upon
favorably by other gun clubs through
out the state rs the place for holding
the state tournament in 1922.
Ardmore has a little trap shooting
history Of which present day shooters
know nothing The facts came TO light
recently while perusing some old rec
ords Of the pioneer organization that
held a tournament at the fair grounds
here in 1905, in which squad OF five
men faced the trap at the 16-yard line
and all five left with a clean score of
% targets each, a feat quite unusual
in these more modern days OF improved
arms and ammunition.
The five men composing this squad
were W. O. Duston, j. b. Spragins,
w. 2. Poland, Ed Roberts and a man
by the name Of Boston. The first four
mentioned were residents Of Ardmore
while Mr.. Boston was from Texas.
The present day Ardmore Gun club
is going to make an effort to organ
ize a squad that will equal the mark
set by the old-timers but they evident
ly have mapped out quite a large sized
contract
Mr.. Spragins and Mr.. Poland are
still residents Of this city, Ed Roberts
lives in Oklahoma City Mr.. Duston
died a few years ago at Mena, Ark, and
the whereabouts of Mr.. Boston is un.
known.
