    FAIR WEATHER MEANS A GREAT CROWD TO SEE TECH PLAY BELLEFONTE ON ISLAND
Ducks, Hot Biscuits and
Gravy With Tom Marshall
"A friend In need is a friend In
deed." Dr. S. B. Friend of Los An
geles, Cal., is all that tho word
mend implies, so accepted by the
host of good sportsmen who sing
climatic conditions and specialize on
tho Pacific coast as an ideal resi
dence section. There is an atmos
pheric condition in "Sunset Land"
which engenders sociability and good
fellowship. Doctor Friend and wife
are the devotees of the urt of trap
shooting. On a recent visit to Ma
nilla, at a shooting tournament given
by tho Gun Club, the medal repre
• senting tho Philippine Island cham
pionship, was annexed by Mrs.
Friend in an open contest. As a re
cent contestant in the Grand Amer
ican Handicap, in Chicago, she turn
, cd in most credible scores.
October 16 was the opening day in
tho duck shooting arena in Califor
nia. As the guest of Dr. Friend
and wife, tho writer visited tho Cas
tic Lake Duek Club, a run of about
one hundred miles over tho ridge
route road from Los Angeles. Tho
lake Is located la tho Tejon Range
of mountains, in Kern county, about !
fifty miles inlupd from tho railroad,
approximately two miles long and,
one wide, deep in tho center and j
shoal near tho shores. Wild rice
and celery furnished the piece do re
-4 sistancc, while tule, liag and reeds,
form an ideal trysting place, where
duck confidences are exchanged.
Shore blinds are scattered around
tho lake, so located that tho hunter
always has tho advantage of wind
conditions. Tho hunting lodge is
spacious and convenient, cxcilent
beds which seem to fit one's form
after a day afield. A competent chef
who specializes on tho 'cooking of
ducks, with a real duck gravy and
hot biscuits, which havo made tho
southland famous;.
Wlicn we arrived, the surface of
the lake was covered with mallards,
teal, spoon-bill, sprigs, while an oc
• casional flock of canvasback were
conspicuous by their flashing silver
grav color, covering the lalto like a
white blanket, in limited sections.
Resting in the center of the pond,
they felt immune from danger, as
there had been no shooting on the
grounds prior to our arrival. Live
oak frees were around the shores, up
tho mountainside is seen the state
ly, towering pine and tir.
Ensconced in our blind, tho first
shot was tired, which put all wild
life in motion, creating general con
sternation. They jumped from the
surface of tho water a/nd commenc
ed "milling." Wo were occupying a
point blind, which gave us numerous
shots us the birds circled about. Wo
soon had suilicient number of ducks
t to mako a respectable decoy display.
We staked them out by running a
sharpened stick into the mud, impal
ing tho lower portion of the duck's
bill on the stick, which gave them
a life-like appearance as they rest
ed on the water. The decoy layout
was especially seductive, assisted by
the dulcet notes of a duck call, birds
dropped in, affording most excel-
j or> t scooting. We were soon con
vinced that our bag limit would bo
raached before tho evening flight
f&rted. Thon carao the "shot
about" order, scorng mallard ducks
of tho male persuasion only.

SATURDAY EVENING,
| tho muzzlo of a gun toward, by the
I red blood nlmrod, than a frisky mal
! lard'. When a man successfully
i matches wits with this wily ace of
| the air, he has out out some work
| for himself. Circling high in tho
j clouds turning his head from sido
to sitle, very little gets away from
! his acute vision. Anxious to light
| when conditions are propitious, he
I becomes nonsuspiclous. The cam
! ouflage blind must tic almost perfect
! and the hunter set rigid, a little turn
! of one's head to watch their flight
! will frequently start a duck climb
i ing higher, sending him to other
: dimes. Our legal limit count was
j made, two ducks more completed our
quota, they were pulled down by
Miss Diana, our shooting pnrd. As
our birds were tied pi bunches, tho
color scheme found on a male mal
lard appealed to me as being the
most perfect offered by any othor
bird awing. Our birds must have
been members of the I. W. W. or
ganization, usually interpreted as the
"I don't work's." They had been in
cessantly eating, seldom taking wing
or moving about, until they had be
come inordinately fat and h(savy.
Wo remained two more days, annex- I
ing, the bag limit on each day.
With our machine loaded with
ducks, we returned to the city of
saints, to scatter duck delicacies
among our less fortunate friends.
The close of an outing covered three
perfect days' sport.
Question: How were shot gauges
originally determined, say 10, 12, 16
or 20: F. 11. D.
LaFuyette, Ind.
Answer: Prior to tho discovery,
of tho micrometer and other instru- '
ments for accurate gauging, all shot I
guns were cylinder bore. A spheri- ,
cal bull of lead, which exactly fitted |
to the bore, was then weighed up,
the number of bullets required to
weigh one pound determined the
gauge of tho gun. Twelve bullets!
weighing one pound was indicative
of a twelve gauge gun.
Question': What would lie tho \
correct load on a target thrown fifty j
yards?
JACOB MILLER.
Davenport, lowa.
Answer: The accurate lead would (
depend upon too many unstated con- :
ditions for me to hazard a guess—
whether a straight* away or angle
target, if an angle, the degree; if!
straight away the height, calm or:
windy, steady or irregular flight; :
whether you follow with your gun [
the flying" object, shooting at a time
when your gun is in motion or j
whether you swing ahead of your J
target and stop your gun before fir- j
ing. Ask some professional who is
attending the tournament or some;
successful home amateur.
Question: Where could I get cor- :
rectly measured for a gun? I want:
to commence trapshooting and feel,
after reading your articles, I should
start with a gun that fits.
J. R. C.
Evansville, Tnd.
Answer: Locate a professional |
equipped with a try gun or a knowl- j
edge of guns and their construction. |
He will measure you accurately, de
termining all requisites. You. ari>
on the right plan. Get your gun to
fit. Then you will rapidly learn to
shoot.

Three Football Games Are
Scheduled Here Today
Only rain could bust up tho foot
ball sehedulo for Harrlsburg this |
afternoon and at 11 o'clock tho at-|
mosphere looked very tricky. Tho l
Bellcfonte Academy boys, husky as a |
stone fence, hove in view a little |
before that hour, and were mot by i
Athletic Manager Percy Grubb. The {
visitors appeared to be mighty con- j
fldezit, but of course, they had not j
had a squint yet at Carl Beck,
"Buddy" Lingle, Captain Ebnor and s
such like.
Grubb announced that Eugene:
(Shorty) Miller would be responsible
for the refereeing, and ho seemed to
think that this would bo the hardest
game for Tech of the season. Cole- t
man was out of the lineup, and tho
festive brass band was so crippled
by absences that it did not jazz 'quite
as lively as usual. *
Tho schedule provided a game be- j
ginning at 1.30 twixt Scrubs and
Hershey A. C., and the big game at '
3 sharp; admission 35 cents.
The Academy team had arranged
to play with Lancaster Stevens Trade
school, and Coach Rudisill gathered
his squad together at an early hour
for final practice. There was plenty
of ginger in the Academy bunch, a
lively mass meeting of students yes
terday bringing out the pep. Man
ager Loose announced the following
list of battles as arranged up-to
date:
November 9. Stevens Trade, at
home; 13, Middletown Aviators, at
home; 16, Gettysburg High School,
at home; 23, Gettysburg Academy, at
pounds. To-day Flags carried 1291
pounds and paid 8 to 1.
Flags had the time of his life to t
get to the wire a nose in front of
Jeck Scot who, in turn, just stalled
off Bulse. It was a great finish and
none knew which had'won until the
official numerals were posted. Every
horse in the race except Nepherhan,
whose fatest time for the route has
been 1.13, has run the three-quar
ters between 1.11 and 1.12 2-5.
The favorite of the contest was
Sam Hildreth's Lucillite, with Motor
Cop, who was coupled with Boniface,
second. Neither finished close up to
the money.
The Beach stable also put over
Ground Swell in second event. The
odds against this one's chances be
ing almost 13 to 1. Close finishes
ruled the day. Noses and heads sep-
