OLDENbOOM To
OPPOSE CASEYS
~SpeedWays Hope to Even the
Score With Woodbridge
Knights

Bill Sheehan and his Speedway
forces of this city. will travel to
Woodbridge on Monday afternoon to
cross bats with the Knights of Co
lumbus nine of that place. This
is a return game, the Caseys having
COPIED the bacon in the first contest
by a 4 to 2 score. The game will be
played on the Grove street grounds.
S%outhpaw Oldenboom will be de-
pended upon by Manager Sheehan
to hold the Woodbridge batters in
check. In the last game, Sheehan
started a new man and the Wood
bridge victory was registered main
ly as a result of their ability to get
to his offerings. The Speedway fol-
lowers are confident that Oldenboom
can hold the Caseys.
Bob Risley probably will receive
the assignment for the home club
and the remainder of the team will
be lined UP in regular fashion. For
the Speedways, Meyer Larson, Gus
Nesley. Tom Burke, White Leahy,
Ed Brown, George Mitruska and Joe
Eurns will occupy seven of the eight
remaining positions.
The Speedways hold a victory over
the Harmony Club nine of Roose-
welt and the latter team recently
scored a one-sided win over the
Woodbridge Knights of Columbus.
The game is scheduled to start
promptly at $3.50 o'clock.

PLAN MONSTER
TRAP EVENT
Shoot Will be Held This Month
at South JerSey--M Many

BY GEORGE S. MCARTY

Glass shooting has been recog-
nized to the extent of being placed
in the championship division of the
clay target sport by The American
Trapshooting Association. At the
Grand american Clay Target cham
pionships which will be staged on
the Absecon Boulevard, Atlantic
City, n. j.. September IL to 16, one
full day, Thursday, September IA,
will be set aside for determining the
champion of North America in each
of five classes. The winner in each
o. these classes will receive a medal
valued at 500, emblematic of the
title and a cash prize. The contest
calls for 200 single targets. 16 yards
rise.
Although the classification of
chooters has been tried out at many
large tournaments. including the
Grand American, this year is the
first that the winner will become
known as a champion. The A. L.
A. is seeking to encourage novices
and shooters of the lower classes by
affording them an opportunity to
win a title in their classes. There
are, of course, any number of trap
shooters who find it difficult to break
80 per cent; others seldom average
better than so to IS per cent. OBJ
viously. these men cannot win a
championship where all contestants
shoot on an equality, and where
there are a considerable number of
entrants who average 95 per cent
and better.
At Atlantic City all contestants IN
the class championships of North
America will be placed in classes in
strict accord with their ability as
evidenced by their official averages
at registered targets. The A. T. A.
has adopted what is known as the
standard system and which fixes five
classes, according to average, as fol-
lows:
Glass ia per cent and over.
Glass go per cent and under "a
per cent.
Glass $50 per cent and under 80
Glass 4-S2 per cent and under Sc
per cent.
Glass Below 50 per cent.
The class char .pionships are open
only to amateurs.
In addition to the five gold medals
-one for the champion in each Of
the five classes-the A. r. A. will
add $1,000 in cash to the class cham
pionships, this money to be applied
as follows: 5000 to each of the five
classes; $25 to the eight high guns
in each class.
No man who is acquainted with a
shotgun may now say that he lacks
the skill to go to the Grand Ameri-

that the national shoot is for the

team has not been announced, bat
the Aquehongas will line up in regu-

Carroll Shows Up We'll
Johnny Carroll, popular Chrome
Pusilist, entered the ring intent on
making up for his setback at the
hands of the Elizabeth boxer in
their last meeting. The Chrome
fighter in the minds of a great many
in the auditorium, did not have a
chance of holding his own with the
Union county lad.
In the opening round Carroli
showed that he admired the aoillly
of his opponent by the careful man
ner in which he timed MS every
maneuver. There was little mixing
in this round which was given as
even.
Mcfarland used a left jab to ad-
vantage in the second and TINS en-
abled him to break up the defefse
of the home boxer. In this Session
Mcfarland got in a number OIL soou
blows, while Carroll was contiIu,
ing to play safe. In the 'hiiu
round, Carroll showed up well. lie
made his opponent miss a grea,

Starting the sixth, the noted iett
hand jab of Carroll was again In
