The tournament is scheduled TO starr
on August II, and this is the day for
the big parade. Such a move has ol
ready been suggested, but those In
charge OF the Ogden tourney could not
see II that way and announced that the
Ogden tournament had nothing to do
with the &, A. Il, parade in Salt Lake
The professionals who Will be in at

to allow them to come TO Salt Lake
for that day. but as they are represent.

they are supposed to so and shoot on
the dates their firms decide 10 send
them Nevertheless they would all
appreciate it If the Ogden manage
ment would make the change While
no kick is liable to be registered bv
the professionals, there Will be a kick
from some Of the amateurs and the
professionals are scarcely with them
One professional said today that he
had never seen the old soldiers on ma.
rade in his life and that he had en-
ough good, red. American blood to
want TO. and that as this was an op-
portunity that would probably never
come up again. he certainly would ap-
preciate 1t if the opening date could be
set back one day. There are a mum.
Der of shooters coming from Idaho
for the Ogden tournament and 1t is
dollars TO doughnuts they Will be alb
sent on the opening day and come TO
Salt Lake anyway. They are unat-
tached and as one of the shooters said
yesterday. Our time Is our own and
while we like shooting all right we

OF coming to Salt Lake on the day of
the parade at least"
