More on the 'Stur-Guzer'

Weary Of murders, the tragedy of war.
and much childish, destructive political
sniping which fills most of the press
today. I turned to the editorial
page Of The Evening Star few days
ago. and my interest was directed to
the word Shenandoah" AS ! am q ma
tive of the beautiful Shenandoah Val
ley Of Virginia, I hungrily started out to
read what this "Star-Gazer." Bess M.
Egan. had to say. It was magnificent!
AS small child. would lie on my
back during the long, sweet summer
evenings and gaze up into the great.
starry sky which seemed like q giant
cup turned upside down over all of us.
With one sweep Of the eye, I could
see the horizon at every point Of the
compass.
Those were horse-and- buggy days.
and often as we youngsters drove
through the cold, clear. crisp winter
evenings to and from the various church
and social affairs (and we often thought
our speed was breath-taking), it would
seem as if those acres and acres of
bright stars were flowing right through
the top of the buggy or phaeton, and
stretching out behind in long, blinking
streamers.
The beauty and majesty of the firma-
ment always thrilled the little country
girl, and gazing up into their winking.
blinking, glorious beauty, she sometimes
shouted back to them the words Of the
10th Psalm which begins: "The heavens
declare the glory of God: the armament
showeth His handiwork!"
I, too, know about the fireflies, the
smell of fresh-plowed earth and the
bewitching smell of apples when the
cellar door was opened-or the apple
butter boiling in the huge brass kettle
in the back yard. and the pungent flavor
of sticky sorghum as it flowed out from
the cane press while the old mule,
hitched to the long, wooden tongue,
walked slowly around in circles.
How would love to have an oppor-
tunity to sit on something like Miss
Egan's Mount Wilson," and lose myself
again in wonder as gazed up into the
great night sky, and listen and listen,
and try to hear the voice of God, say
ing to me something like he said to
Job:
Where vast thou when I laid the
foundations of the earth? :. When the
morning stars sang together. and all the
sons Of God shouted for joy? Canst
thou bind the sweet influence of PIE
iades, or loose the bands of Orion?
Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his
season? or canst thou guide Arcturus
with his sons?"
Please write again, won't you, Mrs.
Egan?

Civil Defense Makes Prooress

The Governments sensible warning against
mass-evacuation Of critical target areas during
an atomic bomb attack is an example of the
sort OF authoritative advice which local civil
defense authorities have been clamorng for but
with too little success. The evacuation problem
Is only one OF many questions which have been
touched on only sketchily by Federal officials
but which need to be answered promptly. The
paucity Of information was to be expected "A
long as civil defense was o stepchild of the
National Security Resources Board. Now that
the President has given civil defense an inde-
pendent status, with former Governor Caldwell
OF Florida as administrator, the situation should
improve.
James J. Wadsworth, acting director of civil
defense under NSRB, has cleared up some mis-
conceptions regarding emergency evacuation of
cities that arose from publication of one of the
Jew Federal guide books so far released It was
easy to infer from the pamphlet, United States
Civil Defense" that one of the main tasks of local
authorities was to aid in the removal of every
body from industrial centers under attack or
threatened with attack. But complete evacua-
tlon OF such communities would paralyze pro-
duction more effectively than direct hit, besides
ereatlng hopeless traffic jams on highways that
should be kept open for emergency crews and
troops. Mr.. Wadsworth announced q national
-mass-stampede policy, under which cities

hight back"-by restoring order, resuming pro-
duction and generally keeping essential services
running.
IL Is evident that Mr. Wadsworth has been
doing what he can to supply civil defense au-
thorities throughout the country with needed
information, but he has been handicapped by
the 1nadequacy of the civil defense setup under

The Family Hobby Is Shooting 6

THEIR mutual interest in
l. rifles brought Mr.. and
Mrs. Freeman e. Morgan, jr.,
together.
Mrs. Morgan learned to
shoot from her father in
Calumet, Mich, when she was
about 18. Long a gun-fan-
cier, he never thought to
teach her the sport until he
encountered a talented girl in
one of the tournaments he
entered. He soon discovered
that his daughter could do
even better. Several years
later, she met her husband
to-be at a Chicago YMCA
where, as range master, he
conducted occasional ladies'
nights.
Now Mrs. Morgan, whose
name Is Ruth, Is recognized
as one of the country's lead
ing rifle shots. She has set
II national women's records,
of which 10 still stand, and
with her current tournament
pace-she averages one a

for more titles.
Mr.. Morgan, who works for

gun is likely to be more ac-
curate, too. Actually, he says,
the maximum accuracy Of a
target rifle Is about one inch
at 100 yards; in other words,
granting that a shooters aim
is perfect, successive bullets
aimed at the same point may
make holes as much as an
inch apart. Targets take
this fact into account. Only
in cases of tie scores is the
center of the 10-ring, marked
x, given any significance.
Speaking OF the 10-ring, Mrs.
Morgan pulled off a string of
SO consecutive los to wind up
the final match of a tour
nament in Norfolk last year!
There are about 200 COM
petitive shooters in the Wash
ington area, Mr.. Morgan says,
including about 10 married
couples and possibly three
families. He regards shoot
ing as an unusually demo-
cratic sport, one in which
generals and privates, ty-
coons. clerks and mechanics
enjoy friendly rivalries on an
equal footing. And both he
and Mrs. Morgan are proud
of the safety record Of their
sport; there has never been
a fatal accident In a match
sanctioned by the National
Rifle Association.
