First The referee being In the trap house, there Is nothing that can Inter fere with his vision of the target or nothing to distract his attention from rendering a just decision.

second If any part of the target Is missing when It leaves the trap he can see it and call it a no bird, doing away with the condition which has often arisen as to whether the target was whole or not when It was thrown. Third Being vera) much closer to the target, the referee can positively tell whether It Is a piece out of the target or not. Fourth No favoritism could possibly be shown, as the referee cannot tell who Is shooting. Fifth The scorer or umpire will have to decide If targets are thrown too late or too early, miss fires or balks. Sixth The decision of the referee and umpire shall be final and cannot be overruled, by the shooter or squad target announces the results of the hott whether It Is a "kill" or a "loss." His decision Is rendered Into tho phone or speaking tube to the scorer snd squad.
