The annual shoot of the Harvard and Yale Gun Clubs, held on the grounds of the Springfield Shooting Club at Springfield Saturday morning, resulted in a decisive victory for Harvard. The weather and wind were favorable; but the traps were wretched, often breaking the birds or throwing them two low. The match started off with blackbirds but as the supply ran out the shooting was finished with ordinary clays. A feature of the match was the splendid work of Gould and Sargent for Harvard; both made 25 out of a possible 30 on the two strings, and the latter made 15 consecutive hits on his second string.
HARVARD.
