Wyatt Earp reflects research h&did in

getting ready to portray the famous

marshal in his popular television series.

And part of 07Brian's research has

meant learning how to handle a gun,

which he does pretty well. He recently

challenged filmland shooters to a show-

down to see who can draw the fastest

and shoot the straightest.

Colonel Charles Askins' article on

"How Good Are Shotguns For Big

Game" is a timely study of rifled slugs

in smoothbores for bear. and deer, but

the colonel is doing another kind of

hunting currently. In the Far East as

chief marksmanship instructor for the

Viet Namese army, he is also doing his

share of hunting. His letters make lively

reading.

"On this ten-day soiree that I have

just completed, I hunted by elephant

back and had quite a lovely time," he

reports. "Rode spang into the middle

lengthy yardage of 20 long steps. Well,

T& less than a couple of excited heart-

beats those damned critters were right at our hip pockets. Our old bull literally stood on his hind legs, turned and bolted. He stampeded and he must have had his eyes shut. He mowed down trees, knocked over others, plowed through brush, vines and fern for hundreds of yards and between his freighttrainlike commotion and our yelling the gaur were making their share, too."

Askins and the elephant were pretty busy and he didn't get a gaur this time.

Paris, France. America won in international flyer shooting when Bob Allen of

Des Moines, Iowa, downed 24x24 birds in a shoot-off with the former champion of

France, Count A. de Chavagnac. This nerve-wracking event was a miss-and-out

deal and all the other contestants had been eliminated on their first misses by

. the 15th bird. The Count and Bob Allen shot neck and neck until the Count

missed his 24th twisting, elusive bird, and Bob remained on the field, the winner

Rome, Italy. The 20th Championship of the World pigeon shooting contest, which

. . . was won last year in Cairo, Egypt, by Kenoshan Bill Isetts, did not see any

Americans among the top names this year. American shooters placed but failed to

win any events

Scattergunner Emmanuel Vafaidis of Egypt recouped the Nile-

land's dignity and took the World Champion cup back home with a score of 25x25.

Count Teba of Spain, whose distinction as a champion wingshot places him among

Americans placing were Col. William Ever- and Bill Isetts who killed 23 birds

Birds in Rome were wild

mountain pigeons called "Zorritosn and were terrifically fast. The championship

shoot was a 25-bird match with shooters being eliminated from further competi-

. . . tion on four misses. Over half the entry lists of 300 men and women from 11

countries was out by the 9th bird, and only about 40 shooters finished the

entire race

L. M. Gardner scored second also with a 96 and this gave the judges a

problem. So they broke the tie by scoring Creedmoor system, measuring the

distances, the shot "string,*-was used to gauge which rifleman had the closest group the short string won

Smallbore Rifle Tournament in Grand Island. But the shooting was as hot and
