CARNEY Editor National Sports Syndicate In the neighborhood of two hundred golf, country and yacht clubs have adopted trapshooting as an added sporting diversion during the past year and now the automobile clubs are tak ing to the sport alluring. By the adop tion of trapshooting we mean that these clubs have installed trapshooting equipment and engage in club compe tition. There are seasons of the year when yachtsmen, motorists, golfers and the frequenters of country clubs generally have nothing to do and the clubs be come more or less inactive, so one by one the officers have come to the con clusion that it is best to give the mem bers additional sport to keep them in terested and to continue to visit the club. And one by one they have adopt ed trapshooting as the means of keep ing the members enthusiastic. There is nothing like trapshooting for good fellowship. It is a sport that Is wholesome, always in season; a sport that knows no class distinction. It is followed by men and women, ir spectlve of their station in life. One of the lirst automobile clubs to take up trapshooting was the Park Automobile Club of Kansas City, Mo., and this dub now has a membership of 2,000 interested in trapshooting and has a shooting lodge. Last summer the Speedway Park Association of Chicago, 111., installed two traps inside the pad dock of the racetrack and these traps are enjoyed by thousands of members who now frequent the track and racing course even when there is no racing. The Philadelphia (Pa.) Automobile Speedway, which is in course of con struction, has made plans for the con struction of four modern traps and all equipment.

Fields, of the Central High school five was tho big gun for that team, playing ono of tha strongest defensive and floor guinea even hern this season. Ho broke up many passes for tho Btoolton lads and during tho first half throw a long goal which evened up tho eoore. DoyholT Is Heal Ktar Captain Dnyhoff, of tho Steelton quin tet, was the real star of tho game. Tho Stoelton captain was all over tho floor breaking up passes and whenever tho opportunity offerod was scoring points for his team. He acored 82 points of tho 40 acored by the Bteolton team. Hia work from the foul line was bril liant, throwing 20 out of 27. Captain Hilton, of tho Central High Ave, was unablo to locate the basket nnd only acored 2G out of 48 called on tho down river team. Dayhoff acored the first point of tho uontllct on a foul toss and u llttlo later Hilton evened the acoro in the same manner. Control then scored six points before Hteelton was üble to locate tho basket.

To make matters worse a number of co-eds from tSeel ton joined in the display. As a witness of the game with Steel ton, and also the Central-Tech game, I can only say, Steelton may have good athletes, but they certainly lack 1 the support of persons who know how to conduct themselves in public. Tech adherents last week proved that the best games are always en joyed when there is no ungentleman ly hissing, etc. It isn't my intention to start a fuss. Central students yelled an unkind re | mark at the Steelton crowds first. , But that should have ben nn incentive j to the Steelton adherents to show | their true colors and not spoil the i whole game for everyone. Instead of yelling back at Central, it certainly would have been much better to give a cheer with "Central-Central-Cen tral" on the end of it. That would have ended the whole thing. It did last week. Frequently cheer leaders on both Tech and Cen tral sides called for school yells for the opposing side. The result —Cen- tral lost, but when the game was over, everyone felt that the best team won, and there was no unfriendliness be cause of unsportsmanlike conduct because there wasn't any. If the referee was unfair, the prop er persons to raise serious objections are the captain of the team, and •>< faculty managers of- athletics. The gnme was played under intercolle giate rules. This gives a referee the power to call a foul on the team each time Its supporters hiss. TOWN OBSERVER.
