Foster, C. E. Davies and his son H. W. Davies, used to shoot hand trap in a field near Ballard Vale, Mass., to keep their shooting eye sharp. To achieve variety in target angles, they moved to different positions and the circular "clock" evolved. The trap -- the} target throwing device -- was} placed at 12 o'clock and set to throw target over 6 o'clock. Two shots were taken at each "hour" making 24, The 25th shot (there| are 25 shells in a box) was fired} on an incoming target from the| centre of the "'dial". | | The new game caught on and/ jiew changes were made jover the next 10 years, Foster) had joined the National Sports. | man Magazine staff in Boston and his promotion of the game} }was effective. | In 1923, shortly after the size| lof the circle was reduced from| 25 yards to 20, a hen farm was| built in the field adjoining the| Ballard Vale shooting ground. | This meant that the. shooters could no Jonger fire in the direc-| tion of the henhouse. The problem was solved by| placing another trap at 6 o'clock | that threw targets over 12.| |Then, both angles could be fired: from one side of the circle. That farmer who raised chick-| ens nearby probably never knew that he influenced the for-| | mat of what is today a major) international sport. | Besides club events, state) championships, regional match-| es and the National Skeet Shoot, Lawn Bowling Fosters Win Own Prizes Saturday at the Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club was "Foster Day" as another of the popular one- day mixed treble draw events was held, with Clarence Foster and son Jack sponsoring this as donors of the day's prizes. The results of the day's play produced something unique in that Clarence Foster skipped his trio, which included "Win" Bonnetta and Ethel Cay, to top with the highest, point for two games and son supported by wife Lori Jack, next in line, to take the second. / place prizes. | Although the temperature breeze kept the players com- The 'west' greens used and were almost filled. Other prize-winners for Satur- day included Art Brown's entry, which included '"'Casey" Luke and his wife, high for one win, closely followed by Bill Pierson, | Dorothy Bentley and Jack Cole- man.

William H, Foster developed what he called "'clock shooting"', skeet is one of the shooting events at Olympic and Inter- nationa&Shooting Union compe. titions. The modern skeet field looks much like Fostser's half circle. There is a high traphouse at the left and a low house at the right. Shooting starts at Station 1, by the high house, and shots are fired at targets from each house. singly.. The five-man squad continues around the circle, taking turns, to Station 7 by the low house. Station 8 is right between the two traphouses and you have to be fast to catch that clay sail- ing almost over your head, The squad finishes their "round" of skeet by refiring at Stations 1, 2, 6 and 7 but this time -- doubles. Both targets, from high and low houses, are} thrown at once. You have to break one, then the other.

The beginner may break only 6 or 9 his first time out, but it doesn't take long to get the hang of it. Since skeet targets all are broken at about 22 yards, a shotgun with an. open bore is best. Events are fired with 410, 28, 20 and 12 gauge guns but it's best to learn with the 12 gauge. Most popular among top skeet shooters is the Model 12 skeet) gun, Your wife or youngster) might want to start with the 20) gauge like the Model 37 Begin- ner's Model because of its light- er weight and recoil.
