Clubs of All Kinds Adopt
Trapshooting As Sport;
Brings Good Fellowship
BY PETER P. 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.

Basketball Fans
Dear Kir: Spectators at the Cen
tral-Steelton high school basketball
game last night were constantly an
-1 noyed by the persistent hissing at the
referee, and unsportsmanlike howls
and whines from a number of Steel
ton supporters. 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.
