of Ihe . Country club trap shoot
And Mr. Mackey did' some real
shooting to get it. lie stepped
up to the line for 10 practice
shots at the beginning of the
shooting yesterday and - missed
three birds, so he didn't feel very
lucky. Immediately afl-rwar In
actual lournanient - shoollnff he
knocked dow n. i: birds, 111 u row,
which as the little boy said abo'll
his grudes, "w as not; yrelly'uood,

During the two days or- the

six birds out of a possible 100
pigeons, which is hittbig u mighty
high average. -
Nule y.wcirel was runner-up for
tlie prize. Nule shot very nearly
good enough to win Iho gun but
couldn't qulle gel over Ihe high
murk set by Mr. Mackey and so
was required to take second placj.
Thu shoot was an .entirely sac
cess from ail slaudpoinls. About
2tf sportsmen participated and
some unusually good scorea were
marked up.
The tournament, was run on Ihe
hundlcup basis, thus giving the
poorer shooters as well as the
