Champ Not Impressed By Pistol Prowess of Old-Time Gun-TOterS

CAMP PERRY, Ohio., R - Harry Reeves, Detroit policeman who won his sixth national pistol championship here yesterday, isn't overly impressed by the prowess of the gun-toting bad men of the old west.
 "They all used the heavy, long barrelled six-shooter - the clum- siest gun in the world to get out of a holster in a hurry" Reeves explained while he waited on the ready" line at the national matches here.
 "Given an even break, the present-day expert could out draw and out-shoot all the old western marshals and bad men.
 q can pull two 45-caliber auto- matics from their holsters and put 16 shots into man-sized dummy at Is feet in around three seconds. And a lot of other fel- lows can do it, too. I can pull one gun and hit the dummy three times in one second, including the draw"
 Reeves said most of the frontier gunfights were close : up affairs and "the one who did the killing generally had his gun out and was firing before his opponent realized it.
 Reeves 2,507 out of a possible 2,700 yesterday enabled him to retain the championship he won last year. He previously had won the pistol title in 1940-41-46-48.
