 A self-taught wizard with a Winchester. Parsons has been shooting since the age of seven, and in his exhibition performs spectacular shots with an arsenal of ten rifles, shotguns, pistols and revolyers.
 Where many shooters hold their breath when getting off a shot, Parsons accompanies even his most difficult feats with a steady bar rage of humorous comment. The difficult accomplishment of talking while shooting was mastered Dy Parsons after three years of daily

However, no compensa- ton is allowed to the members when they are actually engaged in investigations, meetings, inquiries and hearings for the Commission.

practice
 Shooting under the joint sponsor ship of Winchester-West and dealers of Wrangell, Parsons uses a shotgun to scramble" in two seconds, three eggs thrown high into the air He also throws a wood block into the air, and while it is kept dancing, splinters it with four shots from a .22 rifle. One of his most difficult shots is to fire a .22 rifle, tossing the tiny empty cart ridges into the air and using them as targets for his unerring bullets
 Parsons will supply information on all types of shooting at the end of his exhibition, and will assist anyone with a shooting problem, or answer any questions relating to the sport Safety in the handling of firearms is as important to him as his spectacular shooting, and his whole program stresses firearm safety as well as being entertain ing.
