Confident or Trophy in Each
Event on Path, as Sprinters

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON", Eugene,
Or., Feb. 20. (Special.) Bill Hayward,
48 years old and as active as the young
est member of his track squad, ap
peared in uniform under the running
Bhed the middle of the week and
showed, by actual demonstration, prop
er methods in the strat, stride and fin

that the "old man," as Bill calls him
self on the track, had still a good burst
of speed, he Issued a challenge to any
of the Freshman sprinters who cared
to "take him on." None did.
Kx-WaahlnsTton Hlgfc Star I'aed.
In the shorter events of the century
and 220, Hayward has Boylen, who was
a point winner in both races last year;
Clarridgc, who comes to Oregon with
an Eastern reputation, Goreczky, pres
ent State interscholastic record holder
of the 220 and 100-yard dashes; Wilson,
& star performer for Washington High
school last season; and Joe Sheehan,
who is looked to do something for the
lemon-yellow this year.
Jumping into the middle distances,
Loucks, Nelson, and Staub loom up as
the cream of that material. Loucks
will beat his present time of 49,3-5
seconds for the quarter, in the opinion
of the majority who are commenting
upon the ex-Reed College athlete and
his chances to do big things on the
path this season.
Long Bursts Well Handled.
With Huggins always a reliable run
ner in the eight-furlong show and
with the possibility that Nelson will
aid him in this race, tho mile appears
to be well taken care of and rein
forcements will be obtained when the
Spring's outcrop of "dark horses" ap
pear. Langley, rated a good plugger,
and Bostwick who looked promising,
are two of tho seasoned men who are
again in uniform and may blossom
forth as real stars.
To little "Mose" Payne goes the sole
charge of the long winded two mile
attraction. Sam Cook and "Heiny"
Heldenrich, for three seasons point win
ners in the shot and discus features,
are again on deck and bid well to re
peat their performances as dependable
point annexers.
Hardies Have Three.
The hurdles are sure of winners in
Hamstreet. Fee, and Muirhed. Ham

Washington and the Oregon Aggies In
his initial season as a lemon-yellow

D will be decided between tne Ore

February 26 and 27. With the defeat
of the University of Idaho by the Uni
versity of Oregon barfket-tossers and
the defeat of the Aggies by the quintet
from the Gem State. tb'odds favor the
State University. - ,
When rr. E. J. Stewart, of the Ore
ron Agricultural College, selected NiaJ
Williams as the 1913 baseball ttnor for
the collegians, he picked out one of
tho brainiest and best-liked ballplayers
In the Northwest. Nick managed the
Portland Northwestern League club and
then led the Ballard squad of the same
organization. He has played college
baseball, having been a battery mate
of Orvle Overall at the University of
California several years ago, and for
that reason he is in a position to know
the ins and outs of the college player
with a coach. He will start active
duties at Corvallis next week, accord
ing to Lr. Stewart.
Although track work tmong the
Northwestern colleges has been going
on for a little more than ten days, all
the coaches for the most part are
pleased with the early turnouts. Coach
Bill Hayward. at present, eeems the
best fortified with winning material
among the teams of the conference,
and he has a quartet of quarter-milers
who can step the distance off around
BO seconds right now.
"Cutting remarks to visiting teams
or to the referee not only give a wrong
Impression as to the spirit of the stu
dent body, but are not fair to the home
team when it is contesting." aaid Pro
fessor Severn, of Hillsdale College,
' Hillsdale. Mich, recently in an address
before the students. This might be
taken into consideration by the Uni
versity of Washington students, who
created such a "hub-bub" at the games
played in Seattle. Most of the teams
of the conference dread making the
trip to the campua at the Washing
ton metropolis because of the attitude
taken toward the visiting aggregation.
An example of what we call good
sportsmanship was demonstrated last
Fall at the University of Oregon-Oregon
Agricultural College football game
at Corvallis. When the noise became
too strenuous and it was hard for the
signals to be heard, all that had to be
done was to have one of the officials
raUe his hand and the respective yell
leaders immediately had the applause
eliminated, regardless whether it was
the visitors or the home squad.

SHOOT TO BE TODAY
Big Events Due in Gun Club
Before State Match.
TRAP "DON'TS" ARE GIVEN
Goal Buttons Offered for Amateurs
With Special Prizes for Women
Who Knter Matches Gilbert
Trophy 3tect Is Sfarch 7.
Big things are in store for the fol
lowers of trapshooting who are mem
bers of the Portland Gun Club, for E.
L. Matthews, manager of tho club, is
arranging several shoots prior to the
Oregon state match on . April 26 and
27. For today he has planned a mer
chandise shoot, and these avents have
caused more than two-score to Journey
out to the Jenno Station traps.
Letters have been sent out to all
the members of the club asking that
co-operation be lent in making this
the big shoot of the Winter, and from
the replies that have been received
Manager Matthews feels confident that
the largest attendance so far this year
will be on hand. A new Leggett Ideal
automatic trap has been installed and
the other traps have been raised, mak
ing It possible for better chances for
good scores.
The raising of the traps makes it
easier to find the "clays." All four of
the present traps have been altered
so that the nimrods will be able to
get used to them before the regular
tournaments are called.
The club has offered some goal but
tons for the amateur shooter wno
makes the high score at the traps each
week and the second 25 birds shot at
will go toward the Imperial Hotel dia
mond medal. It is considered to De one
of the finest trophies ever offered for
a similar event in the Northwest.
More women contestants are appear-i-o-
o tho E-rounds each week and to
day Manager Matthews has arranged
for a special prize 10 ue eic iw mo
fairest shooter. Shooting will start
promptly at 10 o'clock. Manager Mat
thews wishes it announced that he is
on the grounds all the time and is
ever ready to be of service during the
week days when the trapslipoters want
to attend.
i o-nnd score at the traps depends
to a great extent in having the "bird"
rise from the trap immediately after
the contestant calls "pull," and it is
strange that so many shooters do not
know how to give the call correctly.
Most nimrods blame the puller for the
slow bluerocks, but as a general rule
they have tnemseives iu

Is given, and the following are a few
"don'ts" which if heeded will cause
fewer balks and better scores:
First Don't call la a low hesitating
voice; remember the puller Is watching
you and it you call in a sharp clear voice
you startle him and he Instinctively Jerks
the pull lever, thus giving you the blra
when you are keyed up to shoot. ..,,
Second Don't call in a loud voice which
expels tho air from your lungs, for there is
nothing which disturbs the aim worse than
this practice. ,
Third Don't call Immediately after the
man ahead of you has fired. This Is the
cause of a great many lost birds, for rune
times out of ten the trapper has failed to
place the bird or tts changing the angle, and
this will cause a "broken ' bird ne arly
every time, and you must either wait for
another bird or shoot at the piece, and the
whole target is none too large.
Another thing to remember is not to
stand In front of or near the pulling stand
and talk. This prevents the puller from
hearing the call or takes his attention away
from his work and either one is not going
to help the man at the traps In making a
good score.
The call of "Pull" may seem a small
matter in making good scores, but you will
tind that the expert trap shot Is not guilty
of these little mistakes.
II. R. Everding, president of the
Portland Gun Club, is doing all in his
power to make the state shoot one of
the biggest ever held. The dates this
year have been set at April 26 and
27, while the Northwest tourney will
be held at the Jenno Station grounds
on the Estacada carline June 6, 7,
S and 9.
The Northwest shoot brings some of
the best shooters in this neck of the
woods together and, next to the Pa
cific Coast handicap, is the banner af
fair of the Coast. Becase of the many
trapshootera who wll be out this way
to visit the fair at San Francisco, sev
eral Eastern notables are expected to
be on hand when the first day is called.

100,000 SHOTS SPED
World's Champion at Traps
Estimates Trigger Pulls.
SCORE TAB SHOWS 81,000
j. H. Held, With Record of .9644 in
Interstate Match for 1914, Is
Considered One of Best An
glers With Seattle Club.
Jj. H. Reid. world's champion trap
shot, who finished with a percentage
of .9644 in the interstate record for
1914 has fired away enough ammuni
tion' in his 18 years before the traps
to kill all the wild game in existence.
While on a visit to Portland last week
Mr Reid was asked how many times
he 'had pulled the trigger, and his es
timate was the astounding total of 100,
000. "I have kept a close tab on my scores
from registered tourneys," said the
Seattle professional, "and I think the
count is now somewhere about 81,000
shots. I guess I have burned up
enough powder to sink a few dread
naughts." Highest Run I 222.
Mr. Reid was among the winners at
the Grand American Handicap during
the seasons of 1904, 1905, 1906, 1907 and
1908. In the 1904 campaign he had
broken 99 straight birds, and on the
100th his bird crossed the bird from the
trap next to his. He says he broke his,
but the referee saw the "lost" bird
and ho was charged up with it.
His highest run was 222. made at In
dianapolis in 1905. He broke 181 in
Vancouver and then went to Seattle,
where he continued the string, break
ing enough to make the high run of
214. This feat was performed in 1913.
03-rer Cent Lowest Mark.
In all his experiences Mr. Reid has
never shot below 92 per cent for the
average at registered tourneys for one
year, and according to the records for
tho 1914 season, the Seattle man is
credited with .9644. This is the best
mark by a professional during the last
campaign.
He has been the highest professional
on the Pacific Coast for the past three
years, and his run of 214. is the highest
ever made on this slope. His average
for the three seasons is .9618, according
to the Interstate Association.
He attends every registered tourney
on the Coast in the interest of the Pe
ters Cartridge Company, and his last
visit to Portland was last Wednesday,
when he came down to see his nephew.
Joseph A. Addleman, secretary of the
Portland Gun Club.
All kinds of trophies have been won
during the seasons Mr. Reid has passed
at the traps. He has dozens of watch-
fobs, watch charms, medals, knives,
forks, spoons, and every other sort of
trophy. His first big entry this year
will be at the Portland Gun Club trap3
during the state shoot in April.
On his visits to Portland he always
makes it a point to go out and break a
few bluerocks for the boys. Sometimes
he is handicapped at 21 yards, and at
other times he stands at the 16-yard
limit. It is awfully hard for him to
miss them when he is placed at the
regulation distance from the birds.
Not only does he like the scatter gun,
but he is considered to be one of the
best fishermen the Seattle Club
possesses. He was down In Southern
Oregon recently; but the water in the
rivers was not high enough and good
fishing was impossible, it is said.
TRAP SHOOTING GETS BOOST
Sport Is Made 3Iore Popular by
Easily-Handled Hand Trap.
Another big factor in popularizing
trap shooting and giving it a variety
that is necessary to the real national
izing of any sport that has recently
been Introduced is tho hand trap. This
implement has made trap shooting
possible under absolutely any condl
tion, thus giving It vast elasticity. The
hand trap will do all that the regular
trap will do in the matter of
getting distance and angles on the
targets and is also of such
a flexible and easily-handled nature
that it can be transported without ef
fort, can be used either on shore, on
moving trains or other vehicles, or on
the water.
It does not need setting up and can
be well used by the yachtsman, the
hunter, the farmer, the explorer and
in fact, anybody who loves shooting
and wants to fire a shotgun either for
the purpose of keeping his eye keyed
up for other kinds of shooting or who
likes trap shooting for its own sake.
