st. Mary's county claims it did not
get q fair deal In the trap shoot at
Morgantown last Wednesday and
have filed q protest with Mr..
Foord. Of Delaware: Frank q.
Roseberry, of Baltimore, and
Harry T. EdeIl, Of Hyattsville, who
sponsored this contest, through
Capt. william NJ. Clements, Of
Leonardtown, as follows:
I'VE beg to advise that the fol-
lowing list Of names compose the

test held at Morgantown on Wed
nesday, October %, 1929. The list
follows: J.-P. McDon0ugh, K. Hay
den, F. p. Hamilton, Louis Groves,
Frank Hamilton, Phil Stubener,
and Raymond Beavis.
I'VE protest that Phil Stubener
Is a professional shot and thereby
disqualified On the amateur team
Also that Raymond Beavis Is form
erly from st. Mary's and is Q reg
istered voter Of st. Mary's county.
He made q statement to Claude
Hayden, of Leonardtown, that he
did not enter to shoot with
Charles county and that Gardner
Edelen'S name was taken from the
scoreboard and BeaviS' name put
on.
I'VE ask IN explanation Of this
and our understanding was that
each county was represented by
eight men and, according to what
Mr.. Edell and Mr.. Nicol told Cap
tain Clements Of st. Mary'S team,
the five highest men would be
picked from teams and not from
counties.
kindly let me hear from you at
