that the original exchange of PEP

several hundred shares of the

mother, Mrs. Hadley Hobson, and
ms sister Norell. Hia shooting
record is all tha more remark
able in view of the fact that he
has only been using the bow. and
arrow tnree years. Already hia
trophy collection shows his skill.
John. really la a modest youth,
but here are some things a re
porter's Questioning naasea on ;
He comes honestly by his abil
ity on the target, for both his
iatner ana mother, Mr. and Mrs.
Harry D. Hobson of Lyons hare
held various championships In
the past. Incidentally, his father
haa considerable reputation for
the making of bows and arrows.
John hopes to attend the na
tional archery tournament in St.
Louia, Mo., August 7 to 11, and
there to add further laurels. His
father may go with him. He en
tered the nationals last year, and
won two or three championships.
"I do quite a bit of prac
ticing in the summer time, but
none in the winter. I use the
bow and arrow to hunt with
sometimes in the winter, for I
enjoy hunting in this manner,"
John said.
. Hia sport enthusiasm includes
also tennis, fishing which he
lovea to do, and swimming. In
fact, when he finishes high school
and pribably college, he hopes to
go into the sporting goods busi
