Skeet Made Army Air Gunners Crack Shots
Col. Sloan, Now Shooting Association Boss, Trained Soldiers in Sport
By Lewis F. Atchison
“I may have been distantly
related to Tod Sloan, but I doubt
it,” said Col. Emerald F. (Tod*
Sloan, manager of the National
Skeet Shooting Association. “My
folks were from Ireland—I sup
pose that’s why I got the name
of Emerald—but I think they
were better hunters than horse
men.”
TTiat meant the colonel, re
tired after 25 years of active Army
duty, probably hadn't even been
on a horse, let alone being re
lated to the celebrated Jockey
who is one of turfdoms im
mortals.
“On the contrary.” corrected
Col. Sloan. “I played polo with
the late Gen. George Patton in
Hawaii. Borrowed ponies from
him, as a matter of fact. He was
a major them, independently
wealthy and had a string of nice
mounts, while I was a second
lieutenant with only one polo
pony to my name. But Patton,
who was popular with every one
on the post, liked to win, so he
loaned us ponies when ours tired
and when we won he threw a
party for us at the officers’ club.
So I know something about
horses.”
It’s a long way from polo in
Hawaii to a desk Job at the
skeet association.
“And a long story, too." put
in the Colonel, who indicated
he'd much rather skip it and
talk about the rapidly growing j
popularity of the gun game. But )
John A. Lafore, Jr., of Philadel- j
phia, a member of the associa- .
tion’s Executive Committee and ;
an ardent gunner, picked up his
ears at the mention of hunting.
He wanted to hear that story,
too.
“My grandfather, Henry Pos
ter, a professional seal hunter,
started me shooting at the age
of 12,” Sloan related. He was
rifle champion of the Territory
of Washington from 1865 to ’72,
when they used wooden targets
and plugged the holes to use the
EMERALD F. (TOD) SLOAN.

targets over and over again. I
guess he taught me well, because
1 won the national rifle cham
pionship in 1931 and was selected
for the 1932 Olympic team be
fore somebody remembered Id
won $32 in the Nationals at
Camp Perry. I’ll never forget
that. It was quite a disappoint
ment to be so close to an hohor
so few achieve, that of being •
picked for the Olympic team.’’
With that background the Col- ‘
onel probably was an old hand
at skeet, we decided. But again
he dissented. His Uncle Harry !
Gilchrist, an expert trapshooter,
introduced him to that sport in
1920, but Sloan didn’t try skeet !
until 1942, when he was in charge
of basic ground training for the
Fourth Air Force at Portland,
Oreg.
Skeet shooting, he discovered,
made young gunners realize they
had to lead a moving target to
hit it. Secondly, men going

Helps Bat in Leafs' 7-0 Win
By th« Associated Press I
SYRACUSE, N. Y„ June 15.—
"Improving with age”—that*
what Toronto baseball fans are
saying today about Oscar Judd,
38-year-old left-hander of the
Toronto Maple Leafs.
Judd, who began playing or
ganized baseball in 1934, pitched
and helped bat the Leafs to a

the Syracuse Chiefs here last
night. The game was called at
the end of seven innings be

season and also the first since
July 29, 1946. when Syracuse's
Earl Harrist hurled' a 5-0 nine
inning no-hitter against Toronto.
Judd, who was purchased from
the parent Philadelphia Phillies
on May 17, now has won five
games and lost only one for the
seventh-place Leafs.
The lanky portsider fanned
three batters and walked two.
One other Chief got on base due
to an error by Catcher George
Plumbo.
For five Innings, Judd was
hooked up in a scoreless mound
duel with Dixie Howell. In the
sixth, the Leafs shoved six runs
home, two on Ed Sanicki's 10th
homer and three when Judd
doubled.
Judd, in addition to his fine
pitching for the Leafs this year,
has proved a dangerous batter.
He has rapped out six ^lits in 19
trips, including three doubles
and one homer for a .316 aver
age. He has batted in 11 runs
and scored 4.

program needed supervised rec
reation and skeet was found to
be one of the best. Another
thing he discovered was that,
while all coaches made good in
structors, football players made
the best.
With a staff of 37 instructors,
only 3 of whom had had previous
skeet experience. Col. Sloan's or
ganization crammed some 186 000
crew members through a skeet- [
shooting program. The benefits
of that training were put down
with mathematical certainty.
Whereas Army gunners had
scored only 1 per cent of hits on
towed targets In practice before
taking skeet training, the figure
jumped to 12 per cent after such
training. One group, whose train
ing was prolonged, jumped to 32
percent.
"The Army still won't let us
release the war combat figures,
but I can tell you that one group
of our skeet shooters completely
decimated an enemy force," the
colonel said. “Now maybe you
can't credit all that success to
skeet, but we know it helped."
Col. Sloan can. and will, sit and
talk skeet by the hour, telling
how the national association is
only beginning to get on its feet
after being reorganized in 1946.
There were 262 registered shoots
last year, which means the scores
w-ere forwarded to national head- '
quarters for official computation
and that figure will be doubled
this year.
The national championships at
Los Vegas in September will draw
a record field, the colonel believes,
including such film notables as
Clark Gable. Andy Devine and
Rex Bell. The regional shoots
are attracting more contestants
and competition is getting keener.
"We've found large industrial
concerns are leaning more and
more toward skeet as recreation
for their employes,” the colonel
told us. "I am corresponding
with some 800 big concerns and
some already have put it in their
programs. They pay half the
cost and the employes pav half."
FBI agents get skeet shooting
as part of their training at the
Quantico Marine base, we nad
been told.
"Yes, but those boys mean busi
ness." the colonel said. "They use
sawed-off shotguns."
