for the day by breaking 15 straight in the first event, 
he then broke 46 x 50 in event No. i, tying for first 
place with Thomas, and then he turned'in the high 
score in the handicap event, breaking 42 x 50 frojp 
18yds. Dave Thomas was a close second, as he was 
only one target behind Moore in the practice and handi¬ 
cap event. The cold wind not only made the targets 
take erratic flights, but it also “nipped” the fingers 
which helped lower the scores of quite a number.

the flying of live birds.
