program needed supervised rec
reation and skeet was found to
be one of the best. Another
thing he discovered was that.
while all coaches made good in
structors, football players made
the best.
With a staff of 81 instructors,
only of whom had had previous
skeet experience. Col. Sloan's Or
ganization crammed some l86, 900
crew members through skeet-
shooting program The benefits
of that training were put down
with mathematical certainty.
Whereas Army gunners had
scored only l per cent of hits on
towed targets in practice before
taking skeet training, the figure
jumped to II per cent after such
training. One group, whose train
ing was prolonged, jumped to 81
percent.
THE Army still won't let us
release the war combat figures,
but I can tell you that one group
of our skeet shooters completely
decimated an enemy force" the
colonel said. Now maybe you
can't credit all that success to
skeet. but we know it helped"
Col. Sloan can. and will, sit and
talk skeet by the hour. telling
how the national. association is
only beginning to get on its feet
after being reorganized in 1916.
There were 262 registered shoots
last year. which means the scores
were forwarded to national head
quarters for official computation
and that figure will be doubled
this year.
The national championships at
Los Vegas in September will draw
a record field. the colonel believes,
including such film notables as
Clark Gable Andy Devine and
Rex Bell. The regional shoots
are attracting more contestants
and competition is getting keener.
We've found large industrial
concerns are leaning more and
more toward skeet as recreation
for their employees" the colonel
told us. "I am corresponding
with some 300 big concerns and
some already have put it in their
programs. They pay half the
cost and the employees pay half"
FBI agents get skeet shooting
as part of their training at the
Quantico Marine base, we mad
been told.
"Yes, but those boys mean bllsi-
ness" the colonel said. "They'us
