BIC TRAPSHOOT | ON CARDS SOON
Birmingham Gun Club Scene Of Big Gun
 ming Event

Birmingham's first registered trap shoot of the season will be held Sat urday July 12 at the Birmingham Gun club, it is announced. Firing will be- gin at 9 o'clock in the morning. With more than $500 added, and large num- Der of class trophies, it is expected that one of the largest crowds of the season will be on hand when the shoot begins.
 Eight events are scheduled at 9 yards, at an entrance fee of $2.65 and with $25 cash prize added. The POO targets registered, however, is the big event. These will be shot at the 16- yard distance and carry cash rewa rds amounting to $500.
 The money in each case, it is an- nounced, will be divided five ways, 30 per cent, 20 per cent, 20 per cent, 20 per cent and 10 per cent. In case of ties for class prizes, they will be shot off at 25 targets. The shooters will be classified by committee con- sisting of the shooters present, thus avoiding any sQuabbling or hard feel ings.
 There will be a beautiful trophy to the high gun on the POO targets in each class, A, B, c, and D. These awards are on display at B. NJ. Cheno- weth & Co.'s, and are worth any ones competition.
 Fifteen dollars in gold to the high gun, and $10 in gold to second high gun will be given in both the first and second 100 in each class.
 Immediately preceding the State Shoot as it does, this trapshoot not only offers a fine chance at really valuable prizes and honors, but it gives
