In a few short months, the shotgun fans will again be
out in the field banging away at a great rate, and the shell
manufacturers will be wearing beautiful smiles as the sales
graph goes up. Even now, more and more shotguns are ap
pearing In the local gunsmith shops, getting a new blue job
or a new stock, or some adjustment that the optimistic owner
hopes will mean more hits and less misses later on. What
with doves, pigeons, quail, pheasant, ducks, and several other
fame birds, we really have a fine opportunity in Oregon for
tcatter-gunning. Oddly enough, though, the vast majority of
western gunners are sadly lacking in knowledge of shotguns
and wing shooting. We say this without any snobbishness, as
we are very likely prone to many of the same faults that
we see so glaringly revealed by others but that's the ad
vantage of being a columnist you can write an article and
no one can argue with you at least while you're writing it!
Seriously, however, most westerners are still long-barrel, full
choke gunners. A man is prone to speak proudly of his
blunderbuss that weighs eight pounds or better and sports a
thirty-Inch barrel. For some reason, he thinks the long tube
will put more force behind the shot, and give him greater
distance and killing power. Truth is, though, the difference in
reach and killing power between a 26 and 30-inch barrel is so
alight as to bo disregarded. The shorter tarrel will swing
faster, and on upland game is a much better weapon uian tne
long gun. Full choke barrels are fine for the expert gunner,
who shoots all year around, but the man who seldom shoots
except during bird season ia handicapped by such' a small pat
tern. A modified choke would give him a wider pattern, and
consequently compensate a great deal for his errors in leading
the bird. He would find that a modified gun would kill con
sistently at 40 to 49 yards, and most shots are made at these
ranges.
But, as most sporting goods salesmen will tell you, the
average hunter wants a full choke weapon. Seems that every
body is afraid that the man in the blind next to him will
bo able to shoot on yard further, and get the first shot. This
unfortunate psychology results in the kind of shooting each
year that makes this writer do a quick burn; there's nothing
more obnoxious than the character who always bangs away
t a flight of ducks 100 yards out. What we wish is that
more sporting goods men would help to educate the public to
good shooting principles. This also applies to gunsmiths. But
this is a ticklish problem; nobody sheds their prejudices
easily. Some men would dump their wives for a new red
headed model, quicker than they'd change the model of their
shooting 'aim. Still, many sportsmen are receptive and eager
for assistance In proper field equipment, and it is unfortunate
that proper advice is not always available. The successful
gunner is a happy man but beware the guy who comes in at
the end of the day with nothing but a bruised shoulder, a
skinned nose and an empty shell vest!
Those hunters that are getting their weapons repaired
or refitted at the present time are wise gunsmiths will be
loaded down with gun work later. If your gun needs some
work, get It done now, then get a few boxes of shells and go
out and shoot some crows. You'll have some fun, and will
have your shooting eye In shape for the gunning ahead.
Cardinals, Rams
Should Be in Top
Form by Sept. 7
Portland When the Chi
cago Cardinals and Los An
gelea Rams come to grips here
at Multnomh Stadium Sep
tember 7, they will be Bearing
mid-season fornr and the game
probably will furnish more
thrills than last year's spec'
taenlar 14 to 14 victory by the
Rams.
Los Angeles already opened
its season in a game with Fort
Ord Army. This week the
Rams play another service
team, the 11th Naval District
All-Stars. Then they face
three straight National Foot
ball league opponents before
coming to Portland, going up
against the Washington Red
skins, the Cleveland Browns
and the San Francisco 49ers.
Chicago opens its season
August 22 against the Balti
more Colts and then meets the
Green Bay Packers at Spokane
a week prior to the Ram con
test. So both coaches, Joe Styda
har of the Cardinals and
Hampton Pool of the Rams,
will have a chance to test their
rookies under fire and to get
their squads into top condi
tion. The Cards are countine? nn
freshman Johnny Olszewski of
laiuornia to provide the of
fensive spark they have been
lacking, while Los AnrelM la

They Slide Hard Into Yank
2nd Baseman Billy Martin
Doublet: Jeffrie, and T. FUk.
Homera: RubIcII.
By JACK CUDDY
New York (U.B 8 e e e n d
baseman Billy Martin has be
come target for hard-sliding
rival players in (e American
league.
He doesn't mind it, but his
New York Yankee mates do.
And it ruffles the dander of
Manager Casey Stengel, who
said today, "Billy's being hit
with the hardest blocks this
side of a professional football
field."
The . hard - sliding runners
feel they can plough into the
155-pound second sacker with
relative impunity because of
the public impression Martin ia
a trouble-maker.
"He's been getting it good,"
Stengel said. "All around the
league he's getting it, and there
just isn't anything he can do
but stand out there and take
it."
In Martin's relatively brief
career as the Yankees' first
string second baseman his fis
tic opponents included Jim
Piersall of the Red Sox, Clint
Courtney of the Browns, and
Johnny Bucha and Matt Batts
of the Tigers.
Outfielder Hank Bauer com
mented: "No, I've never seen
any spikes flashed at Billy,
But those runners are hitting
him harder than any other in
fielder in the league. And
they're doing it every time
they slide into the bag. Boy!
Have some of those slides been
hard!"
Billy's mates fear one of the
hard slides will deprive them
of their regular second base
man at a critical stage in the
pennant race.
Martin seems leu concerned
than his friends. He said today,
"They can slide as hard as they
like, as long as they slide clean.
When they don't slide clean,
they'll hear about it from me.
Otherwise they'll get no com
plaints." The 1053 NCAA cross coun
try championship run will be
held at Michigan State Mon
day, Nov. 23, for the Ifith con
secutive year.
