. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. 10 THE BREEDER AND SPORTSMAN [Saturday, August 17, 1912. progressed, and after a poor start finished with an average of 19 2-5, 97 out of 125. Dr. A. M. Barker of San Jose was high gun of the day, but he has already qualified for the five finals on September 29. His average with four squads was 23H, a record which is seldom beaten. Dick Reed and W. J. Hig- gins of San Francisco finished third and fifth re- spectively, George H. Anderson being fourth. Reed averaged 22%, Anderson 20 and Higgins 19 2-5. An- derson did his first trap shooting in nine years two weeks ago. These averages are based on 25-bird events. Dr. Barker is using a shotgun he captured in a tournament ten years ago, so it is stated, and is still making high scores with it despite a dent in one of the barrels. Several new faces were seen at the traps and were welcomed by the shooters, who are working hard to revive the game in San Jose. The boosters of trap shooting are receiving lyoal support from the San Francisco gunners, and there is every pros- pect that there will be a big membership by the time of the finals for the Selby, Peters, Du Pont and other trophies which will be finally shot for by the winners of the shoots held every two weeks at the traps at Alum Rock avenue and Jackson. The scores follow: Dr. A. M. Barker, 22, 23, 25, 23. Total, 93; possi- ble, 100; average, 23H- Dick Reed, S. F., 21, 22, 21, 23, Total, 90; possible, 100; average, 22%. Geo. H. Anderson, 20, 21, 19.
