Here's How The Shooters Stand
The Palmer Fountain trio of
Dan Fleming, Roy Brock and
substitute Bill Smith carried
home the first-place plaque as
victors in the Merchant’s Shoot
this week. The Fountain team
had little trouble outdistancing
their three rivals in this first
handicap shoot.
It is planned that the shoot
will become an annual affair,
with the plaque becoming the
permanent property of the
squad which first gets its name
engraved on the trophy as three
time winners.
The plaque is now being en
graved. It is not known whether
it will arrive in Palmer in time
to be presented at next week’s
club meeting on Wednesday
night.
