Marksman Amazes
Crowd; With Exhibit
An amazing display of what
.patience and practice can accom
plish was displayed by Ken
Beegle, one of the country’s ace
marksmen, during a demonstra
tion sponsored by the Matanuska
Valley Sportsmen last Friday
night.
Hundreds of Valley fans were,
•on hand to witness the strenuous
shooting exhibition put on by
Beegle and his wife, Blanche.
The couple is one of Remington
Arms company’s shooting teams.
Beegle's amazing accuracy in
hitting moving targets was prov
en when he was forced to shoot
against a head wind during the
entire demonstration. “Everyone
who shoots is curious about how
the other fellow does it and likes
to try anything new in the)
shooting line,” Beegle said.
“Many of the fellows who watch
me go home with the ‘If he can
do it, so can I’ idea and start in
practicing some of my shots.
And they can ‘do it,’ too, if only
they will not become too easily
discouraged and will keep on
practicing until they develop the
proper timing.”
Mrs. Beegle assisted her hus
band and demonstrated her abil
ity as a marksman by missing
only one of the many moving tar
gets.

NOTES

July is Picnic Month
July has been designed as Na
tional Picnic Month. There are
too many months when we must
be eating in ,so let us go over
board this summer and enjoy the
out-of-doors. There’s something
about a meal cooked and eaten
out-of-doors that whets the ap
petite and makes for good times
and warm memories.
But there are some “musts.”
Successful picnics must be fun
for the whole family—mother in
cluded. Mother will want to re
sort to some packaged prepared
foods, so the family can “take
off’ on a very short notice instead
of hours of preparation. Cook
foods at the picnic site. A good
fire is a must. Glowing coals are
best to cook over. They are hot
and give even heat. It’s conveni
ent to have a rack for holding
cooking utensils over the coals.
You can make one easily by bolt
ing three large shelf brackets to
gether at the ends to form a tri
pod. Or just use a rack from an
old stove or refrigerator and
place it over the hot coals on
rocks or on two green logs.
A combination stove and skil
let can be made from a No. 10
can; you can fry bacon, eggs,
hamburgers, steaks and pancakes
on it. Cut a door about four in
ches square on one side, at the
open end. Use tin snips and wear
heavy gloves. Next, use an oil
can opener to cut about five
triangular holes on the other
side of the can near the top to
make a draft. Build a small fire
under the can, feed it with small
sticks through the door, and cook
your meal pn top of it.
