A-a.:H"W~kl-fl(NJrrrCS:-THIS IS POR YOU! Colt Buntline Revolver with ZF 41 scope on custom mount • Memphis, Tenn. The term blizzard, which now means a severe weather disturbance, once meant a volley of shooting. Davy Crockett, the famed frontiersman, penned this in his diary: "I saw two more birds, very large fellows. I took a blizzard at one of them and up he tumbled." * * * • In a Marksman vs. Missile contest conducted in the .Pentagon Concourse, the sharpshooters won. An exhibit prepared by the USAF Marksmanship Center at Lackland AFB, Texas, :attracted far greater interest than an adjacent missile exhibit. One reason may have been that the marksmanship display offered the personal touch: four topflight marksmen (Lt. Richard J. Gorey, M/Sgt. John L. Johnson, T/Sgt. John L. Keyser, and A/lc Paul H. Stapper) were present and eager to answer all kinds of questions. * * * • Salt Lake City, Nev. A young man tried to buy ammunition to go rabbit hunting; was refused. Check of city ordinances uncovered a relic law prohibiting the sale of guns or ammunition within city limits to anyone without a permit. The City Commission asked for a study of the situation and suggestions for revision of the ordinance. Police Chief W. C. Shousen branded the present law as "completely unworkable." * * * • Corpus Christi, Tex. A policeman here showed that a pistol can come in handy in more ways than one. Missing every time he fired at a fugitive, the officer in disgust . threw the gun at him-and knocked him out cold. * * * • Elk City, Okla. Raymond McVeigh probaolyhas the fattest billfold around and about. Proud of his marksmanship and hunting successes, McVeigh keeps in his wallet his hunting licenses for the last 31 years. * * * • Butte, Mont. A faded newspaper clipping from this area tells a dramatic story about the late Clark Griffith, the owner of the Washington Senators baseball team. It seems that on a November day in 1912 Griffith, doing a little hunting, was charged by a wounded buck. "Griffith had brought the buck down with a shot," the story relates, "and as he attempted to approach it, the wounded and infuriated beast regained its feet and started madly toward him." Having no time for anything else, Griffith, a crackerjack pitcher in his day, "stooped to the ground and picked up a stone about the size of a baseball. He threw one of his old-time fast ones, hit his quarry right between the eyes, and the buck dropped in its tracks."
