concentrations which might

no mood to take up the transfer,
which is strongly opposed by

1t would be up to the Leeis-
lature to decide on the assign
ment OF racing days.

ture, said:
THE commission acted fairly
and justly and l will continue
to fight any move aimed at con-
centrating 80 days of racing at

We've been studying with great
interest an article by Col.
Charles Askins recently pub
lished in the Skeet Shooting
Review, news bulletin of the
National Skeet Shooting Asso-
citation. 1t has to do with shot
gun triggers and their effect on
the split-second craftsmanship
required in skeet. He points out
that few if any of our modern
shotguns have clean-breaking
triggers, such as you'll find in all
good rifles nowadays. Not only
do they fail to break cleanly,
but the pull required will fire.
quently require more than 5
pounds of pressure. and the
creeping, soapy trigger action
will ofttimes completely ruin
what should have been a proper
lead and result in a lost bird.
Col. Askins also explains what
the shooter can expect if he
doesn't pull the trigger cor
rectly. So many shooters run
their trigger finger through the
guard so far that pressure is
not only applied against the
right side of the receiver but
to the right side of the trigger
itself. pushing the gun of the
lead without the shooter even
realizing that this is one cause
OF his missing targets. Gives one
something to really think about
and correct. II it only adds one
bird a round to the score it will
frequently make the difference
between a win, or loss.
And speaking of skeet shoot
