ISU Skeet s On the move in S.A.

ISU Skeet is on the move in S.A. However for one to say that
it is about to completely change the face of clay target
shooting in our "Festival State" would give rise to some
warranted derisive snorts of "rubbish", "bull", "a dreamer"
etc. No, unfortunately from my angle and that of many
others, it is not yet about to do so any more than it is on the,
Australian scene, but it is making headway.
As others have said before me, we need 'more open minded
approaches, by more open minded administrators prepared to
give it the Aussie "Fair Go".Promote and encourage it, rather
than knocking it down at every opportunity, or ignoring it in
the hope that it will go away. Accept the fact - it won't go
away. Certainly it should be everyone to his own game. We are
no more all ISU Skeet shooters than we are all D.T.L. shooters
or golfers, but I would like to say to the unconverted, don't
shy off trying something different or difficult, give it a go,
you may find you really like it. Sure it's not easy, but neither
is bringing up children. Did that stop you or your parents? To
those who say or think ISU Skeet is too difficult and
consequently people don't want to shoot difficult events, I say,
go along to your local Field & Game Assoc. Simulated Field
Shooting Range, I wager you wiU be proved wrong on both
counts. However to back up my opening statement written
before X allowed myself to digress, the Suuth Australian Skeet
Carnival got under way on 29th and 30th of November 1980
at the grounds of the S.A. Gun Club at Bolivar. The State Skeet
(Ordinary) Championship and team elimination was shot on
the Saturday with some "novelty" D.T.L.to fill the day.
Sunday saw the City of Adelaide 100 target ISU Skeet
Championship which incorporated the first 50 targets as the
State ISU Skeet Team Elimination for 1980.The day was fine
and warm, with not too much wind and 28 shooters partly
warmed up from the ~ a t u r d a ~skeet
' s shooting faced the first
50 targets. In the first round the change of target speed from
the previous days shooting obviously had some effect on
timing, with.only seven shooters scoring twenty or more, the
rest trailing off to some scores they may have preferred to
forget.
Young David Bowring from N.T. showed the way on 22
with Fred Guyatt and Graeme Goldsmith both carding 21.The
second 25 targets which was to determine the State ISU Skeet
Team, again saw only seven shooters scoring 20 or more with
Dennis Foster, Fred Guyatt and Bill Hetherington equalling
on 22.
The State Team thus chosen consisted of Fred Guyatt 43/50,
Graeme Goldsmith 42/50,Chris Woolford 40/5O, Ray Kimber
39/50,Bill Hetherington 39150 and John Struik 38/50(after a
shoot off with three others).
Going on from here to complete the final 50 targets of the
City of Adelaide Championship, scores improved some what
with sixteen shooters making 20 or more in the next 25
targets. These included clean rounds by both Kimber and
Guyatt, a 24 by Johnston and 23 by Goldsmith. Of the eleven
who shot 20 or more in the last 25 targets, Ben Murphy put
up 24 to lead over three others on 23.
'- The final results of the 100 target City of Adelaide
Championship: F. Guyatt 1st A grade 911100,R. Kimber 2nd
A grade 871100. G..Goldsmith 1st B grade 851100,D. Foster
2nd B grade 821100,3.Struik 1st C grade 791100,P. Winzen
2nd C grade 77/100,D. Bowering - Best Junior 851100.
With light starting to wane, and all other events over, the
presentations of the weekend were delayed until. the completion of the State Team score. One Hundred and fifty competition ISU Skeet targets in one day is no mean feat, and
congratulations must be accorded to every member of that
team for their effort and concentration in putting together the
following scores under those conditions, especially as two of
them were also involved in the running of the whole weekend.
That was the last ISU skeet for 1980,but several weeks later
on Sunday 10th January 1981,at a time when a lot of people
Page 4
are still on holidays, it was on again. To prove that the
interest was still there and that they wern't about to be beaten
by a few of those little round black b's, eighteen shooters
fronted for the first 100 target State ISU Skeet Team
Elimination for 1981.This is to be complete contrast to 1980
when only 50 targets decided the team, as emh shooter will
eliminate over any two of four 100 target events together with
one compulsory 200 target event. This system of course has
the advantage of, more competitive practice and allowing
someone back in who either couldn't make the date or couldn't
make a score on a particular day. The scores shot will also be
used to form a State Training squad, hopefully with some
opportunities to travel to other competitive venues.
Back to January 10th. 1981, the day was hot with some
variation in wind, and little variation in the £lies. Some delay
occurred in getting things under way over the two ISU Skeet
layouts at the grounds of the S.A. Gun Club at Bolivar, but by
lunchtime most of the four squads had finished their first 50
targets. In comparison to the slow start in scores at the
November Skeet Carnival, of the eighteen shooters competing
here, ten managed scores of 20 or more over the first 25
targets, the way being shown by Guyatt, Goldsmith and
Struik all carding 23.Round two saw the latter two slip a little
with 21 and 20 respectively but Guyatt held it to a fine 24,the
other closest shooters being Bernie Hansen and Ray Kimber
on 22.The next round saw a change when Graeme Goldsmith
shot the only 25 for the day, ahead of Kimber and Foster on
23. Again ten shooers scored 20 or more. Into the last 25
targets later in. the day, the first elimination for 1981
concluded with John Struik shooting well for a 24,G-uyatt on
23 and Goldsmith letting high gun slip out of his grasp by
being too casual with a pair on Station 5.From,the scoreboard
below it can be seen that some good consistent scores were
shot on this day, which must auger well for the future of ISU
Skeet in S.A. and ensure a very competitive series of
eliminations.

AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS--MAY
Bruce Southgate traversed the Tasman
with the squad of Australians to have a
crack at the New Zealand Championships
and ensure all the shooters had access to
the ELEY cartridges they had pre-ordered
before their de~arture.Full re~ortsof the
fortunes are contained elsewhere in the
journal but Bruce reports that, although only
48 Australians participated, the Aussies
gave the Kiwis the usual stiff competition
they have come to expect, with Neal Berry
winning the Double Rise and Bill lles winning the Ball Trap.
The reports on our new range of Trap shells
continue to flood in and all are very
pleasing.
There have been many approving comments on the power of the Super Trap 1350
and its apparent superiority over'its predecessor. This coupled with the new cosmetics - longer brass, uitra seal head, knurl
ring around the brass, and the modern style
pack (designed by a well-known clay target
shooter) on all the new range, has the
shooting fraternity bubbling.
Considering the Aussies didn't make up
even 10% of the shooters, this is an
excellent performance.
However, the Kiwis were as competitive as
ever and have promised revenge at our
forthcomoing Melbourne Nationals.
****
David Henthorn, ex W.A., N.S.W. representative for ELEY, heads up Ammunition
House, the selling arm for ELEY and CAC
cartridges in New Zealand, and has transferred some of our innovations here into the
"Shaky Isles" as well as introducing some
ideas of his own, one of these being ELEY
playing cards which were the cause of
many interesting comments, as our friendly
opposition found them very entertaining
during the quieter moments of the competition.
ELEY THE RECORD BREAKERS
Well-known Kiwi clay buster, Graham Geeter, recently broke the "Guinness Book of
World Records" record for the amount of
clay targets broken in "7" hour, with an
amazing score of 2,356 using the new
ELEY Special Trap 1250.
ELEY would like to again congratulate
Graham on this tremendous achievement
and would hope that this record will stand
for some considerable time.

WINCHESTER WALLY
QUALITY CONTROL
IN GOOD HANDS
On a trip through Geelong recentiy I had a chance to renew
aquaintances with the whizz kid of qtdty control at Winchester, Wally Penberthy. Wally and I have been comparing
notes on shotshells for many years but this was the first time I
.lad got the chance to have a natter to him face to face for a
long time.
I took the chance to wander through the extensivemanufacturing facility with Wally to s m what had happened since the
last time we had met.
There were many changes as the big W geared up for the
supply of ammunition and components into the 80's.
I was keen to have a look at quality control, perhaps being a
bit suspicious that the boys from Geelong may let their guard
down a bit, being the only manufacturer of ammunition in
Australia.
But, things are OK, or as Ross Baillie put it. ' k e wouldn't
dare let anything shocldy out of this factory, Wally would
crucify us".
In a tour lasting several hours I was introduced to the staff,
which I must admit had not changed a lot since the last time I
had visibd, and shown in great detail the present manufacturing facility.
It seemed just a lot bigger since the last visit.
But the purpose was quality control and it was this subject I
broach@ to the knowledge'able Wally ~enberthya s we inspected.
Standing in the inwards store I posed the question as to
where quality control starts. "It starts", he said, "right from
the very beginning".
"We set very ngici specifications to manufacturers and
suppliers and every component that comes into this factory is
checked, right from the manufacturer, through the whole of
our manufkturing stage to the completed job".
He hap a very pragmatic approach to this form of control
and when quizzed on the quality of materials supplied said
that there are occasionally problems but with an uncompromising approach, suppliers are inclined to 'lift their game."
In the dazzling array of machinery, dominated by the
incredible 'Minster' forming press, with countless millions of
rimfire and shotshell heads being formed each day I posed the
question of how on earth could one keep track of any
mistakes.
R seems there is a way, but I will let Wally tell you in his
own style, he makes it sound simple. To the bloke who pulls
the trigger it seemed very complicated.
"Let's take the brass strip", he mid, "it comes from the
supplier, rolled to our specifications of width and thiokness
together with its metallurgical properties such as grain
structure, properties of elongation m d tensile strength. Our
main concern is the hardness, grain structure and rnalleabilPage 6

ity. We test rigidly for these a s malleability is critical in the
forming process".
"Annealiig is the all important step in all the forming
operations together with washing to keep the operation
smooth and trouble free. In the various cupping and drawing
operations throughout the forming of rimfire cases and
shotshell brass heads particular attention is paid to this
process. We test after each batch is done".
"If we don't, in ageing the brass will break down and crack
around the rim, or even in the wall of the case".
That is the metallurgical side, but what about the physical
side of actual measurement and tolerances was my next
question. We were standing by a machine thumping away and
punching out a simple battery cup.
The machine operator had a set of Eauges and was rsndom
checking the cups a s they dropped into the tray. There were
no less than eight gauging operations for this small component alone. As we walked through it seemed that all machines
had the same strict control.
W a y enlarged on this, "In the brass section there is one
man in each shin who actually checks the work. The
components are in small work baskets of 10,000 pieces. He
gaGes every basket and checks closely for scratches or other
defects that would indicate a die is failing. It is he who OK's
the batch for production".
"Cheokmg at all stagea of production is the name of the
game around here, and it makes sense. With such high rates
of production the failure of a single operation can cause a big
loss in material and t i e " .
With what I saw, the good M r Penberthy was not kidding.
Into the plastic section and the same care was evident.
Plastic used in the majority of shotshells in Australia is a high
density polyethelene. Winchester is the only company that
uses this type of material, it is manufactured by the parent
wmpany Olin and they bring it in to the country in huge
shipments.
"Testing in the early stages here is important", said W a y ,
"we test for Melt M e x and Xntrinsio Viscosity, both are
important in all stages of the forming process. After testing
we Mend it and add colour before it goes to the injection
moulder to make the pre-form".
"Checking starts immediately, all measurements from the
pre-form are ahecked, we even weigh and cut some open to
check for air pockets. This way we are always sure that only
the best is gettting through to the compression forming
process".
It is at this stage that the shotshell case changes from a
piece of weak plastic moulding to a hard resilient case. It is
also the time that the very important tests take place. Wdly
again..."Sam~tesare taken from the com~ressionforminrr
machine and'tested for tensile strength b&h lon&itudinalG
and around the circumference. This is the critical test for the
reloadability of the case".
"You know", he said, "comprwsion forming is a remarkable
process. An injected, moulded case would have a tensile

strength of 6,000 psi but after the forming we can get this
strength up as high as 22,000 psi, quite a big jump".
Wads are injection moulded in low density polgthene and
these are regularly gauged before being released to the
loading room.
:Down with the heavies in the lead department the @ty
control checking continues. Incoming lead is checked for
antimony content and then samples are run through a
spectographic analysis to see that everything is as is should
be. There are a couple of types of lead, one for shot which is a
little harder than the lead for bullets.
From the shot making machine diameter and roundness are
checked and tolerances are such that diameters are kept to
within .002" of size.
Tighter still on the swaging side for buckshot and bullets.
Bullets are very strictly checked for band diameter and
cannelure siw and are kept to within .0005" of size. That's
tight!
Primers are k~a different section and the sophistication of
checking equipment makes the eyes bulge. The pure logistics
of primer testing is just a bit mind boggling.
~aking
a primer or priming a rimfire is a long and involved
process with various ageing stagas. Is also a touchy operation
that requires a lot of care. Thus the testing is exhaustive.
In a typical run of rimfire cases a drop teat is conducted
every two hours and 200 cases are tested. In practical terms it
means that m e b o d y has to, physically, fire over 1000 shells
a +y and write the result of every test down on the quality
control log.
Everything comes together in tfie loading rooms for both
rimfire and shotahells. More testing for rim thickness, rim
diameter, overall length and chamber gauging occurs as the
brass heads are put on the shotshells, they are skived and the
pgimers are inserted.
Rimfires are loaded in plates of 1025 and one cartridge is
t e h d from every plate. Powder weights are checked hourly
and there are spot checks f o r missed loads and double loads.
After orimping there is a pull test, a check for accumw and a
final cheok for waxing before packing.
On the shotshell side all the failsafe controls are built into
the loading machines. But as the loading progresses regular
samples are taken to oheck for shot and powder weights. A
close eye is kept on the machine to see that the right
components are going into the right cases. All specifications
are physically checked about 5 minutes after the run starts
and then this standard must be maintained right throughout
that production run.
Into the ballistic lab we wandered and the range of tests
here are quite bewildering. This is the nitty - gritty of the
testing and quality control. If the product performs here,
the work dune earlier has been worthwhile.
There is a set-up at the start of every manufacturing run to
dl-specifications. Twice per shift then a sample of 10
cartridges is tested f o r pressure and velocity. As a guideline
sAAMISpecificationsare used but individual brands are set to
the companyl's own specifications which are considerably
tighter than SAAMI which are plus or minus 50 fps.
"We keep our field loads to within plus or minus 30 fps and
trap loads to plus or minus 20 fps and we seem to have no
trouble becau8e of the trouble we
to in each stage ofq
manufacture", said Wally.
Rimfire testing is a lot more sophisticated. A computer
controlled pietzo instrument gives pressure and velocity
readings for each indiviual shell fired and then a batch

summary including an average, high, low and an extreme
variation figure.
"With rimfire accuracy", said Wally, "in each batah we fire
five by ten shot strings and keep the extreme spread to .a",
centre to centre. With modern manufacturing we have no
problems doing it".
Function testing is important as well. Every couple of hours
a packet of shells is taken from each loading machine and
fired deliberatekv through different brands of guns. They
have a very broad range to choose from. This is to check for
light recoil, popped primers, split cases etc. etc. In fact they
try to duplicate the sort of problems, you a s a user, might
encounter.
The record on the wall when we went through was that they
had not had a baddie for six months.
I noticed a freezer and an oven and was informed that this
also was a function test.
Standard test on the cold side is to bring the shells down to
0°F for 16 hours rand then fire them. On the warm side they
bring a batch up to 65°C for five days then inspect and fire
them.
Before the product finally gws to warehoushg the final
audit checka are made to see that the right brand is on the
shell and they are in the correot packets and cases.
I must admit that I had never really thought much about
quality control in ammunition manufacture. But having had
a very close look at it, I now realise that it has a lot to do with
manufacturing process. In fact a very large percentage of
time is spent in ensuring that what we feed to our favourite
fowling piece is the best that can be produced.
Winchester's Wally is one who takes his job very seriously
and I can quite happily report that at Geelpng quality control
is alive and well and its in very goal hands.

February 7th and 8th were the dates for Azzurri's 1981 Two
Day Carnival. Featured over the two days was the State
Walk-up Championship and the State Deauville Doubles
Championship. 90 shooters attended and all eqjoyed a good
time wen though the Azzurri breeze, fast becoming notorious, was the only thing to mar the shoot.
Event 1 on Saturday was a 30 target Double Barrel event.
CoIlie shooter Max Cubic took "A" grade. Barry Steele (Barrow
Is) won "B" while Gsoff West (Wagin) won "C" grade.
The State Walk-up Championship was the second event.
Initially it looked like being a one horse race with Aazurri
President (and soon to be crowned W.A.C.T.A. President)
Murray Alexander shooting a good 18/20.At that stage he
was 3 targets clear of anybody else. Then arch-rival Tom
Vodden struck with 18/20. Tom went on to win the shoot off
with Murray second and Orest Ando third. Thanks to Eley for
.the terrific clock which accompanied the red championship
sash. Last went Saturday was the Remington Handicap with
a tremendous 572 BDL rifle for the top handicap man. Azzurri
shooter Mike Mascio proved he Was No. 1 with 25/25.Bevan
Vodden also shot 25/25 but went down in the shoot-off to
Mike. Bevan's face would appear a few more times at trophy
presentation time.
Sunday dawned a bit cooler and windier and it appeared a
race to beat the wind.
Tim Catling (right), has his say after he and Charlie Ellies
had won the W:A. Deauville Doubles Championship.

Event 1,Sunday, was the Wanneroo District Double Barrel
Championship. Azzurri shooters Paul Vivante and Bert
Geddes shot possibles. It looked as if Azzurri would have a
sash to break the drought. Then the possibly inevitable
happened and:well known Robin Bailey shot a possible in the
very last squad of the event. Robin went on to win from Paul
Page 10
The most enjoyed event over the whole week-end was the
Stab Deauville Doubles Championship. A large number of
shooters showed their hard work and practice by choosing
their :partners the best part of 5 minutes before the event.
Sunday's joke was that a person with a seeing-eye dog and
his partner who is hard of hearing won the Doubles. To top
that off Charlie Ellis only shot the one event for the whole
weekend. Charlie I know wears a hearing aid and I don't know
about Tim Catling, but they shot well to win the State
Championship from another well established pair of Wayne
Pillrington and Clem Bertini.
The last event of the shoot was the Winchester Cartridge
Handicap. The 17-19 mark was the best meterage for this
event with Ist, 2nd and 3rd places coming from that group.
Well known shooter Roy Roltfreter showed he badly needed
the shells (well he must have had some reason for winning) by
winning fmm 10 metres. Second was Clayton Hyder with
Aszurri Captain Armando Larini 3rd.
Overall a good shoot with country and Perth shooters
sharing trophies. The wind ruined the intended barbeoue but
it didn't deter some from indulgbg in a drop of the amber
fluid.

TO CLAY BUSTING
'
Gladstone Gun Club, in its continuing endeavour to provide
shooters with the best competition in Central Queensland, did
just that when it followed up its Sunday, January 25th
monthly shoot with a fullprogram of intense competition the
next day, Australia Day.
The program, whichconsisted of four, 50 target events, was
the brainchild of club Competition Manager, Jim Elliot and
was designed to give maximum competition to shooters
preparing themselves for the New Zealand and the Australian
Nationals and in particular to Gladstone Club's four State
Team Members, Danny Casagrande, Jim Elliot, Laurie
Tselepy and Ewan Young.
Attendance over the two days was slightly less than the club
had hoped for, mainly due to the relatively spur of the
moment decision to conduct such a program ljust 13 days
preparation), the Australia Day promotion on thesGold Coast
and the fact that Queensland, from Rockhampton north:was
flood bound.
Even so, some 67 clay busters representing Barcaldine,
Central Burnett, Dysart, Gemflelds, Mt. Isa, Rockhampton,
Sunshine Coast and Nine Mile Clubs nomhiated for one or
both days.
The significant achievements of the p r o m m were, in spite
of the interuptions on Sunday with some very heavy showers,
140 targets were shot over the two traps from 10.00 am till
4.00 pm, on Monday 200 targets were released to each
competitor between 8.45 am and 3.0P pm and over the nine
events, no fewer than 21 individuals won prizes.
Generally a most enjoyable two days of clay busting was
had hy those who participated and the program, from the
Club's point of view, was a suocess, both promotionally and
financially. In fact, in view of the reports from the various
clubs regarding some drop off in attendance, Monday's
program was an interesting excercise in order to gain some
indication of shooters acceptance of such, a concept. Costs
were kept to a minimum with total nominations for the 200
targets, $36.00 (i.e. 18 cents per clay). Obviously, such a
program with reduced nominations has to be run on a cash
division basis, (unless the club is confident of large attendances), apart from Overall. Intermediate and Front Marker
High Gun prizes, which were provided by the Club as an
incentive.
As a result of the keen competition,the cash was distributed
to no less than fourteen competitors.
Competition pressure during the four event Monday section
was right on from the first event as Bill Scarborough, in the
second squad, put a 49 on the board. However, it wasn't good
enough as Jim Elliot showed with "a possible" to take the
money.
It was Elliot again in the single barrel with 49/50 even
though he was .kept honest with 48s from club President
Lindsay Dalton and regular visitor from Central Burnett,
Arnie Williams.
(from Club Publiaity OiYiaer).
Scarborough was again loolring good in the points event as
he blasted his first 47, not even looking Like needing a second
barrel, however the 48th slipped away unmarked by his
number 7s. he managed to contain the final two for a very
creditable 147149. Danny Cassagrande gave him a fright with
146/49 to take out the "A" Grade.
A team shoot was held in conjunction with event three and
the combination of Scarborough, Corones, Hannah and Dalton were too good for the rest, dropping only thirteen targets
btween them out of the 200, to win the Million Dollar Casket
ticket, kindly donated by Jim and Jenny Elliot.
The final event of the day was the 25 Pair Double Rise,
which was won outright by Jim Elliot with 45/50. Elliot also
won the Overall High Gun with 2841300.
If there had been an encouragement award, i t surely would
have gone to regular club supporter. Noleen Herberb. Slightly
bbut Noleen, who stands about 5ft tall in her shooting shoes,
fronted up for the full 200 targets and although shooting 3
metres behind her handicap, managed a personally satisfying
l99BOO for the day and went home with the Front Marker
High Gun trophy for her effort.
The most important point to come out of the whole excercise
was, if competitors are prepared to accept lesser prizes, clubs
can, by programming "big target" events, give a lot of
shooters, a lot of shooting, at minimum cost and by applying
a one or two cents margin to cost of clays, pick up a dollar or
two for every 100 targets thrown.
While we are talking about Gladstone, the club is extremely
grateful to Bill and Jenny Nioa of Nioa Arms who have very
generously donated two Beretta under and overs as prizes for
their home clubs' annual two day Easter Carnival.
In their continuing effort to strengthen their financial
position in order to provide better shooting facilities in the
area, Gladstone Club is very much indebted to all of the
sponsors who have contributed so magnificiently over the five
years the club has been operating.
In addition to Nioa Arms this Easter, other local firms,
Ewan young Painting- painting contractors, F. C. Higginson and Company insurance loss assessors, Millard Tyre
Service - tyre wholesalers and retailers and Central Queensland Real Estate, have also lent their support, bringing the
trophy and prize value to very close to $3,000.00.
Gladstones Easter Shoot each year is part of the annual
Harbour Festival attractions - one and a half weeks of
festivities
culminating in the finish of the Brisbane to
Gladstone Yacht Race.
So, if you are not going to the Nationals in Melbourne, come
to Gladstone while the "hotshots", Elliot, Cassagrande,
Young, Tselepy etc, are away, have a ball and maybe even go
home with a Beretta. (see full page advertisement in this

PRESIDENTS REPORT TO THE 1981
ANNUAL MEETING
We have now entered what has been called the "Challenge of the Eighties". The iirst year has certainly been an
interesting one starting with the Perth Nationals. We had a
large American contingent, some of whom showed us we still
have a thing or two to learn, particularly in shooting double
rise targets. We had the drama in the Double Barrel Event.
but all in all I believe a very successful National.
We received the resignatibn of our President, Mr Ern
Hawkins, who has always been a popular figure around the
traps and the reaction of shooters voicing their concern
substantiates this. Some members are of the opinion that
Ern's resignation was caused by the new A.C.T.A. Constitution. This is not correct.
A lot of thanks must go to our Vice President, Mr Laurie
Connors, who took over the reins of Acting President until the
September Executive Meeting.
I was successful in my nomination to become President of
our Association - a position I am indeed proud to accept. I
realise it will not be an easy task to maintain the high
standard set by my predecessor, whose leadership has
assisted us to gain the National recognition we now enjoy.
However, with the help of the Executive Committee and the
support of you, the members, I believe we can still continue
to grow from strength to strength.
One of the biggest problems confronting us today is
. inflation, the effects of which are felt at all levels of our sport.
from the smallest Club through to the National Office.
The only way costs can be kept down is by the members
volunteering their services. Too many of us are prepared to
sit back and watch the 'too few' do the work.
No firm decision has yet been made regarding a suitable
site for our national shooting ground. At the present time we
have two sites-which look promising. One at Coffs Harbotir
and the other at Port Macquarie. We will keep you fully
informed on any new developments in this area.
Our National Coach, Mr Newton Thomas. and our Olympic
Team must be conaratulated for the wav thev acce~tedour
decision to support-the Government boycott of the '~lympic
Games in Moscow. The disappointment of missing such a
prestigeous event as the Olympics. must have been
tremendous. This unselfish attitude and show of true
sportsmanship makes me proud of our sportsmen.
Those of you who have visited our National Office will
agree a change was long overdue. Hence our move to new
premises away from the city and allowing us more room and
better parking, which you will agree gives us a happier and
brighter outlook and should present a better image for our
sport.
Your Executive Committee must be congratulated in the
way they accept the work load placed upon them and the
time and effort these dedicated people give in carrying out
these duties can only make the "Challenge of the Eighties"
- the success of the Eighties.
President Ron Porter strongly supported junior cornperition.

ANNUAL REPORT 1980
-
Last year's report concluded with the catch phrase
"THE CHALLENGE OF THE EIGHTIES."
1980 has certainly been a challenge with economic
pressures creating noticeable obstacles in all areas of sports
administration.
Particular difficulties occurred in terms of liquidity, and
spiralling operating costs have led to a situation where only a
very modest surplus has resulted from the year's operations.
However, your Executive Committee has shown great
courage and has continued to manage the Association's
affairs so as all the planned projects have been completed.
Afler manv vears of "backina and fillina." the Association
finally cornpiefed constitutiona~reformw i c h recognises the
existence of State Associations. which are now owratina
'
" as
Sub Committees of the ~ationalAssociation.
At the same time, the management of the Association was
streamlined, which included the creation of a number of
specialist sub-committees. By the end of 1980, recognisable
benefits had occurred from these sub-committees.
Effective communications continue to be of vital importance and there-is still room for better utilisation of the pages
of Clay Target Shooting News, especially for the purpose of
debating policies and other major topics.
It has become traditional for the Association's annual
report to address itself to certain specific areas of activity,
and this year will be no different.
1. lnternational Competition
The Association managed to squeeze seven international
competitions into its shooting calendar.
Included in the list were:
(a) Mackintosh lnternational Teams' Match -this is a postal
competition and was again won by Australia, with a score of
7353. This was the seventh consecutive win for Australia.
(b) International Trap Match, conducted during the Australian
Trap and Skeet Championships. This match drew teams
from U.S.A., New fealand and Australia, and was won by
Australia with a score of 241-250.
The Executive Committee wishes to express its gratitude
to Air New Zealand and the Australian Government, whose
support made the project possible.
(c) lnternational Skeet Match. This match is a regular
feature of trans Tasman competition and is conducted aspart
of the National Championships oroaram. (Because of confusion between the A.C:T.A. and ihe hew zealand Clay Target
Association, agreement has now been reached that the skeet
match will be known as the Glenn Trophy Skeet Match, and
will be conducted in Australia in even numbered years. It will
be staged in New Zealand in odd-numbered years). Australia
won the event with a score of 117-125.
(d) Glenn Cup for D.T.L. teams from New Zealand and
Australia. Australia selected a team including Tim Catling
(WA), Rex Northcott (NSW), Don Beelitz (SA), Richard Dean
(Qld), Tony Bradshaw (Vic), and John Murphy (Tas).
The match was held at Christchurch and resulted in a tied
score between New Zealand and Australia. As Australia was
defending the Cup, it retained possession. (As a result of the
agreement reached with the Kiwis, and referred to earlier, the
Glenn Cup for D.T.L. teams will be contested in Australia in
the years in which the corresponding skeet match is staged
in New Zealand).
This team was sponsored by Air New Zealand, which has
proved to be one of the Association's strongest supporters.
(e) South Pacific Regional Championships. This series was
held in Christchurch and catered for rifle and pistol events, as
well as Olympic Trench and ISU Skeet.
Australia entered a full squad, which included: Manager
Newton Thomas; Trap - Greg Long, John Maxwell, Terry
Rumbel amd Jim Ellis; Skeet - Graeme Boyd, Ian Hale, John
Summers and Alex Crikis.
The team performed extremely well. The Trap Teams
match resulted in an Australian Gold Medal (score 561-600)
and Ellis won the individual Gold with a score of 191.
In Skeet, Australia won the teams' Gold, scoring 551-600.
John Woolley (New Zealand) won the individual Gold,
leading Silver Medallist Alex Crikis of Australia home by four
points.
(f) "Home Countries International". This is a match for
three-man D.T.L. teams, and was created at Australia's
request, to accommodate a team which toured England
during July. The Australian team consisted of Kevin Loy
(Captain), Ken Stevens and Ken Lowry. (Doug Smith was
originally selected, but was forced to withdraw because of
business commitments).
Five countries entered the tournament, England, Wales,
Scotland, Ireland and Australia. The match was won by
Scotland - Australia finished in fourth place.
(g) Thailand lnternational. In line with the Association's policy
of trying to find international competition arenas that are
conveniently located in terms of cost, a squad was entered in
the First Thailand lnternaiional Clay Pigeon Championship.
Mr Robert Buchan managed the squad which included
Greg Long (Vic), John Maxwell (NSW), and Ray Collinson
(Qld), all of whom shot Olympic Trench, and Graeme Boyd
(NSW), who shot skeet and trap.
Boyd shot I 9 0 in the skeet, and was a member of the Gold
Medal winning team.
fn the trap teams' event, Australia finished equal second,
but lost the medal chance by losing on a countback.
However, John Maxwell brought home the Bronze Medal in
the individual section.
There have been two features of the Association's
"international year". The first was the Moscow Olvm~ic
Games controversy, where your Association established a
policy of supporting the Australian Government in its decision
to oppose Australian participation. The subsequent rift
caused within the Australian Shooting Association bv another
affiliated group deciding to compete will take some time to
heal.
Special mention must be made of the severe personal
sacrifice made in the interest of clay target shooting by those
shooting athletes who were selected to represent Australia in
the 1980 Olympics.
The terrible waste of the competitor's time and money in
training for this event is not fully appreciated by most, and it is
certain that no-one can understand the personal effects that
withdrawal from the official team created. Newton Thomas,
Terry Rumbel, Jim Ellis and Ian Hale are the heroes of our
sport due to their unselfish decision.
The second feature, and one of a much more pleasant
nature, was the overseas performances of skeet shooter
Alex Crikis. Crikis competed in the Pesta Sukan match in
Singapore in August to record his third successive win in that
contest.
He then attended the"Thailand match, and won that
outright, to make him a real hero in the South East Asian
area.

Executive Committee
A number of new faces appeared on the Executive
Committee during the year; these resulted from retirements
and the effects of the acceptance of the new Artictes of
Association.
Those members who were forced to retire because of the
reduction in size of the Committee were: from Victoria Kevin
Dobson and John Bull; from Queensland Noel Massey and
Bev Grice; from New South Wales - Keith Sim and Hany
Somers.
Other retirements were those of Spencer Angel (Queensland), Don Taylor (Tasmania) and Len Toyne (Tasmania).
On behalf of registered shooters throughout Australia, I
wish to express sincere appreciation for the contribution that
these people had so unselfishly made to the development of
the sport.
The new faces are: Len Bird (New South Wales), Paul
Cains (Tasmania), Ray Mason (Tasmania) and the first
members to represent Northern Territory, Kevin Bowring and
Bill Homer.
There was a change of President mid year, when, after a
term of three years, Em Hawkins retired. Ron Porter of
Brisbane was elected to fill the position.
Ron has proved to be a very active 'and effective chief
executive, and has already projected a fresh approach to
sport leadership.
Don Taylor of Tasmania, was awarded a Life Membership
of the Association for his service to the Executive Committee.
4. Government Grants
1980 was the second year of a three and a half year period
during which the Australian Government is assisting in the
funding of a full time Director of Coaching. The grant has
been increased from $20,000 per year to $22,000 per year.
Other grants received from the Australian Government
included:
(a) Administrative grant of $3000.
(b) An amount of $2000 which assisted the Association to
stage the International Trap Match in Perth.
(c) Assistance amounting to $5000 for special coaching
projects.
(d) An amount of $6,900 to help defray the expenses incurred
in fielding trap and skeet teams overseas.
The Association's management is deeply appreciative of
this assistance, and extends a vote of thanks to Minister for
Home Affairs and Environment, the Hon. R. J. Ellicott and his
enthusiastic band of Sport and Recreation Division officers,
based in Canberra.
During the year, the Association became deeply involved
in a "feud" over the need for funding assistance to improve
the Belmont Shooting Complex at Brisbane in preparation for
the 1982 Commonwealth Games.
Towards the end of the year, the position improved when
the Federal Government announced a facilities upgrade
program, part of which involves Belmont.
Additionally, State Associations are rapidly learning to
"play the political game", with a resulting increase in the level
of funding assistance coming from State Government
sources.
5. National Coachlna Council
The year commenced dramatically for the Coaching
Council when its Chairman. Newton Thomas was awarded
l the 1980 Australia Day
an Order of Australia ~ e d a in
Honours List.
During the year, the Council's first major coaching aid
came into being when an integrated set of coloured slides
together with a taped commentary was completed. The
theme for this aid is trap shooting, and the Council is
proceeding with a similar aid to feature skeet shooting.
Two resignations were received from Councillors during
the year

National Competition
The first "Nationals" in the Eighties was held at Perth Gitn
Club in March. The attendance was the biggest ever in
Western Australia, and included a large contingent of
shooters from U.S.A. together with the traditional strong entry
from New Zealand. Wales was also represented.
The Western Australian Clay Target Association is to be
commended for the standard of the match. The Executive
Committee also wishes to record its appreciation for the
strong support given by trophy donors.
Later in the year, the Cunderdin Gun Club was the venue
for the National Olympic Trench and ISU Skeet Championships. This club did a truly remarkable job of preparing
for and,staging the match and it is unfortunate that a strike
affecting airline schedules had the effect of reducing the
entries received from the Eastern States.
1980 National Champions are:
Olympic Trench John Harris, W.A.
International Skeet Ian Hale, Vic.
Standard Skeet George Biggs, Vic.
Double Barrel - Russell Mark, Vic.
Single Barrel Gerry Messenger, N.Z.
AustraliaINew tealand Trap - Darryl Weise, W.A.

Membrship
It is pleasing to report that despite the cost uressures that
continue to affect -all sports' growth, the' Association's
membership for 1980 was marainallv UR on 1979.
The introduction of pro-rata reiistraiion fees proved to be
successful and almost 500 new registrations were written in
the new category.
One of the most interesting aspects of the 1980 rnembership figures is the increase in family membership-that is
"second family members" and juniors. It is to be hoped that
this trend continues, as a membership mix that has a strong
family base is certain to be more sustaining.
The number of clubs affiliated during 1980 was 276. New
clubs to be welcomed to the "A.C.T.A. family" during the year

Coaching Director; and his place has been filled by "Barney"
Rooke of Wagga; Bob Morgan resigned as Tasmanian
Director, and has not yet been replaced.
Tragedy struck late in the year, when Newton Thomas had
to retire because of ill health. He required open heart surgery,
and a heart valve was replaced.
Few people will ever understand how vital Newton's
contribution to the development of clay-busting was, especially in relation.to the creation and implementation of the
novice training scheme.
Supported by his Council colleagues, and with the assistance of Mrs Val Beitzel of the Confederation of Australian
Sport Coaches Assembly, Newton prepared the blueprint of
what is known as the level one coaching accreditation
scheme.
The scheme was approved by the official Australian
Coaching Council, which makes clay target shooting one of
only 26 sports to have achieved this distinction.
A generous pat on the back must go to all those zone and
club coaches, who either have passed or. are undergoing
comprehensive training to achieve a pass in the accreditation
program.
The real challenge confronting the Association as it enters
1981 is to find a person capable of filling the role of National
Coaching Director.
Administration
Administratively, 1980 has been a year of transition, in the
sense that the Association has successfully changed its
computer operations which were bureau based, to use of "in
house" equipment.
The system involves the use of a "numbers cruncher"
owned by Control Data Australia, to which the Association
connects, when necessary, by Telecom line. A hard copy
terminal is located in the National Office, and can be used for
transmitting data AND receiving reports.
Another success story relates lo the. development of a
trading operation. Towards the end of 1980 mail order
operations picked up considerably and made a useful
contribution to the year's trading result.
New products are constantly under review, and big news
will break at the 1981 Nationals.

8. State Associations
One of the highlights of the State Association scene in
1980 was the conference attended by most of the State
Association Prebidents and Secretaries.
As a FIRST, the exercise must be considered a resounding
success, and it is to be hoped that the 1981 edition will be
bigger and better.
By the end of 1980, $9870 had been returned to State
Associations in the form of per capita grants. This forms a
useful base on which States should build their annual budget,
. and it is encouraging to see the extent to which States are
preparing development plans.
The Queensland Clay Target Association is setting the
pace and already is in receipt of State Government grants
which enables it to provide payments to the Secretary and
the State Coaching Director.
Legislation
Throughout 1980, the '%rearmscontrols" lobby seems to
have quietened somewhat. However, its place has been filled
with a vengeance by the "stop recreational noise" dogooders' efforts.
In Victoria, the position has worsened to the point where
one of our sister organisations, the Victorian Field and Game
Association finds itself having to defend its right to operate
shooting grounds in a case that is listed ior hearing in the
Supreme Court of Victoria.
Every effort must be made to protect the shooting sports
from these unreasonable attacks.
9.
10. Promotion
The Executive-Committee policy of encouraging its senior
office bearers to travel extensively to promote Association
policies has been continued.
Due to the changes that took place with the ACTA
Presidency during 1980, Vice President Laurie Connors has
been forced to accept a great part of the burden and
appeared in every state except Queensland and Tasmania.
Since coming to office, as President, Ron Porter has
worked hard to continue the policy.
However, due to the withdrawal of Ansett assistance,
which hopefully is only temporary, the aspect of promotional
travel will be ctosely monitored during 1981.
Around mid-year, the Association acted as convenor and
organiser for a Discussion Workshop conducted by the
Australian Shooting Association.
The project was an overwhelming success, and attracted
an attendance in excess of 100 delegates, representing
EVERY facet of the shooting sports in Australia.
A re-structured and revitalised Australian Shooting Association is the likely long term outcome of the workshop.
11. Nationel HeedquarPsrs
At the end of 1980, the Association's Administrative Unit
moved from 37 Swanston Street, Melbourne, where it had
been located for 16 years, to a new site at 8 Main Street,
Blackburn.
Management is pursuing the possibility of purchasing the
property, with a view to developing the site as a commercial
income producing proposition.
Meanwhile, progress with selection of a suitable location
for the establishment of a National Shooting Ground has
been slow, mainly due to continually changing circumstf ances.
What has become known as the "Val Paral" project in the
Australian Capital Territory is still alive and well, and the
Association has had discussions with Shire Councils at
Dubbo, Wagga and Coffs Harbour. More recently, an
approach has been received from the Port Macquarie Shire
Council.
Investigations are continuing, particularly in the Southern
Australian area.

A special mention must be made of the continuing support
the Association receives from Air New Zealand and Jetset
Tours.
It is of inferkt to note that towards the end of the year,
domestic airlines and the Federal De~artmentof Trans~ort
combined to effectively stop the various types of assistance
available to national sporting bodies, with the consequence
that the substantial assistance that clay target shooting had
enjoyed from Ansett Airlines of Australia has disappeared.
Negotiations directed at re-instating the benefits are continuing.
14. Conclusions
As we conclude the first year of the eighties decade, it
appears that we are in very serious danger of making winning
more important than participating.
Major tournaments are great for the sport, specialty those
that are heavily sponsored, BUT there must be a balance.
Fun shooting is what the majority of clay busters are looking
for and club managements and State Associations (and the
National Executive Committee) must recognise this need.
1981 wilt see continuing changes, one of the major ones
being the re-establishmentof the Australian Shooting ASSOciation as a major force in the sports management area.
Another major development in 1981 will be the conduct of
the largest shooting tournament in Australia's history. This
will be the Australian Trap and Skeet Championships, to be
held at Melbourne Gun Club, Lilydale, Victoria.
Maybe, we wlll even see a firm decision on the subject of
the National Headquarters.

Executive Director.

AUSTRALIAN SHOOTING
(St&
Readers will possibly'recall having seen a report on a
project called the A.S.A. Discussion Workshop. The report
appeared in the August and September issues of CTSN last
year.
The workshop. attracted an attendance exceeding 100
people and included representatives of virtually every area of
the sports shooting scene. A unanimous decision to arise from
the project was that the Australian Shooting Association
should look at its structure, with a view to making drastic
changes aimed at maklng it more truly representative of the
total group of sporting firearms users in Australia.
The first tangible result of the conference occurred when
the Federal Government showed its interest in the reformation of the ASA, by offering a two-and-a-half year grant
of $50 000 to fund the appointment of a full-time administrator.
The internal haemorrhage which was caused by the 1980
which, by the way.
Olympic Games boycott controversy
protwbly caused more damage to the administrative structure.
of the shooting sports than any other - had the effect of
severely delaying any action aimed at defining the "new
image" of the ASA.
More recently, and again with Federal Government support
(this time, a cheque for $5000) the Management Committee of
the ASA has commissioned a professional consultant in the
person of Mr Tony Power of Melbourne, to investigate the
needs of the sport in relation to the role to be filled by a
re-structured Australian S h o o t i i Association.
Mr Power is well advanced with his assessment. and he is
expected to have a detailed report completed by the end of
Aadl.
Writer)
This report will be made available to all interwted parties,
and will lead to a decision-making conference to be held in
Canberra on June 27, 1981.
At that time, it is hoped that existing and potential affiliates
of the Australian Shooting Association will reaioh consensus
on what i s the best ultimate role for the ASA - best for
shooting in Australia as a whole!
The Chairman of the ASA, Peter Papps recently said:
"The sport of shooting in Australia is currently at a
crossroads. For too many years the various elements in the
sport have wanted to protect their own autonomy, sometimes
to the.point where consequences have unreasonably affected
other shooting bodies".
"The sport can no lohger accept this sort of luxury if it is to
improve its public image. A show of total unity is necessary,
and it is my opinion that the "new" A M will r e p s e n t such
togetherness."
Meanwhile, various trade groups are showing a growing
interest in being involved in the overall pmmoti~nof the
shootjng sports, and consultant Tony Power has been requested to ,consider making provision for an "Industry
Division" in the re-vamped ASA.
A startpoint would be effective State bodies representing firearms dealers and other commercial activities directly
connected with sporting arms and ammunities.
Such a move would complement the growing number of
State "umbrella': organisations being formed by the shooting
groups.

AROUND THE TRAPS
(from Laurie Connors)
Because of my involvement with the administration of clay
target shooting, as well as having a desire to spend time in
assisting with the development of my own club, little time has
been available for me to write this column.
After the 1980 Queen's Birthday weekend shoot at Mildura
Gun Club, the members set out to re-position the skeet and
trap layouts.
It was necessary to do this to provide the four skeet layout$
required by the Victorian State Association to conduct the
1980 Slceet CarnivaJ at the club in October 1980.Also the club
administrators have a desire to run a four day skeet carnival
in June 1981 over the Queen's =rthday weekend.
The club now has four skeet and four D.T.L. grounds all
superimposed. D.T.L. trap houses are of brick and concrete
with new concrete walhways marked to metric. Skeet houses
are also constructed of brick. Allowance has been made to
extend to six D.T.L.and six skeet layouts, should they be
required in the future.
Even while the alterations were in progress, the club still
found time to run a Charity shoot in aid of Karen Dellar,
Mildura entrant for the Miss Australia Quest. Karen was
raising funds for the Spastic Society of =ctoria. The club was
pleased it was able to assist and handed over a cheque for the
sum of $1377.00 raised at the shoot.
DARWIN GUN CLUB. One of the great things about cl@y
target shooting, is the fact one can travel anywhere, and still
be likely to run into someone they know. Darwin Gun Club
major shoot in August 1980 for me was no exception. Geoff
Mark and Ted Lowery from Victoria, Peter Telford S.A. Alec
Jamieson, N.S.W. to name a few I met who made the trip to
attend the Darwin Shoot. It is not all shooting, and providing
you have the stamina, you are in for a good time. The social
atmosphere created by members of the club for visitors
attending the tournament is most appreciative, and I can
recommend a visit to Darwin Gun Club a must to the
travelling shooter. As well as clay targets, other types of field
shooting is organized for those interested. (Photos provided of
clay target and field shooting).
2nd November, 1980
For a number of years I have had a desire to attend what is
lcnown as the Cherry Tree Shoot, held annually in W.A.,and
conducted by the ICatanning Clay Target Club. I included the
event on my shooting calendzw for 1980,and after having
competed along with one l~undredand seventy-five other
shooters, 1can recommend this event to anyone interested in
this type of shooting. It is a simulated field range with traps
set around the edge of a creek. The heavy timber growth on
the banks create an ideal setting for the event. It is organized
and run by the Katanning Clay Target Club in W.A. and is
open to all registered and unregistered A.C.T.A. shooters.
Unregistered competitors mue: be a 'member of the W.A.
Association to compete. I believe this to b6 one of the first ever
simulated ranges erected in Australia. There are many of
them now in all States, and it 1s apparent by the attendance at
these shoots, they are very popular. Cherry Tree provided
twenty-one trophies for placings in the event, with major
placings gain~ngthe support of Eley Ammunition and
Winchester Australia. Provision is made for Open, Intermediate, Veterans, Ladies and Junior Championships. The outright winner for 1980 was Gary Featherstone (Katanning
Clay Target Club) and second Colin Ninkley and third Tim
Catling also from Katanning Clay Target Club. Tim is not
only a shooter with a good reputation with a shot gun,he is
also a noteable golfer in his home town. I noticed amongst the
titles list at the Katanning Golf Club, where a social was held
prior to the Cherry Tree shoot, Tim is listed as winning the
Club Golf Championship in 1958,59, 60,70,71 and 79.Not a
bad record.
CUNDERDIN GUN CLUB W.A. The 1980 National Trench
and Skeet titles were conducted at this club in November.

AROUND THE TRAPS (Cont'd)
The Cunderdin Gun Club, approximateiy 160 kilometres
from Perth, hosted the titles and can be congratulated on its
effort. The equipment installed for shooting I.S.U.disciplines
is first class and the most modern of its type in Australia.
Depreciation is something the club will not have to pay
attention to, as most of the trap protective buildings are built
of concrete, including the safety fences between the skeet
layouts. Something like seventy thousand dollars has been
spent in purchasing and installing the automatic hopper feed
equipment, for the benefit of shooters in the Cunderdin area,
as well as W.A. in general.
The President of the Club. John Harris is enthusiastic. and
is backed by a number of keen Olympic trench and1.S.U. skeet
shooters in W.A., to see that these disciplines, along with the
rest of clay target shooting, progress for the benefit of all
concerned. After witnessing the amount of work and effort
that went into organizing and running this event, it was a
little disappointing not to see greater support from other
States at thisvenue. I believe they deserved it. A special effort
and sometimes sacrifice, will need to be made by shooters who
want to see these disciplines develop. Cunderdin, was one
such area shooters could have taken advantage to further
develop I.S.U. shooting in Australia.
The President of the Cunderdin Gun Club, John Harris,
proved what dedication and hard work can do by winning the
National Olympic Trench Championship, shooting 191-200.
Ian Hale and John Summers Victoria, were no doubt strong
contenders for the I.S.U.Skeet title. Ian finished up taking it
out with a match score of 1941200.Great to see the coaching
given to interested I.S.U.Skeet enthusiasts, by Ian and John
after the completion of the tournament. Also Jim Ellis from
A.C.T. and one of Australia's top shots giving a few tips on
Olympic Trench.
NOW TRUE:
The lion ate a bull. He felt so good he roared and roared.
The hunter heard him roar and killed the lion.
The moral of the story is, When you're full of bull, keep your
mouth shut.. ..

SECRETARY
Staff Writer
John McElvogue is the hardworking secretary of the
Victorian Clay Target Association, who has done so much of
tkie preparations for the 1981 Australian Trap and Skeet
Championship.
On Saturday, April 1 1, John and his wife Bev received the
tragic news that their youngest son Stephen had been killed
in a car crash.
Stephen was a trap-boy at Melbourne Gun Club for many
years, and more recently had become a very promising young
trap-shooter. He gained a place in the 1980,Victorian,Junior
Trap Team, which won the Interstate Junior Teams' Match.
To John and Bev, and their family, clay busters all over
Australia extend their deep sympathy.

BRISBANE GUN CLUB
HOSTS MEDIA MATCH
The third m u a l "Challenge of the Channels" tournament
hostM by the Brisbane Gun Club turned out to be a real
boomer.
It attracted over 120 entries from the four television
channels in the Brisbane area.
The Brisbane Gun Club has worked very hard to develop a
close relationship with the various media groups in the city,
and has been effectively assisted by a group of keen sponsors.
This group includes Seppelts Wines. Dunhill Australia
(cigarette &stributors), Adler Business Machines and "Stefan's," one of Brisbane's leading hairdressers.
A number of staff members of Channel 9 have joined
Brisbane Gun Club, so it is logical that Channel 9 should
become the most active in terms of support for the challenge.
Garry Gibson and John Di Mauro did most of the ground
work for the match, which was officially opened by the arrival
of the Channel Nine Network heliwpter.
Staff Writer
8 MFSMuriel Porter (wife of the Association's late National
President, Ron Porter) presents the "G.R. & M. PORTER
PERPETUAL TROPHY" to the winning media team from
Channel Nine.
The highlight was the presentation of the overall trophy,
known as the G.R. and M.Porter Perpetual Trophy. This had
been donated by Muriel and the late Ron Porter, and was
presented to the winning team from Channel Nine by Mrs
Porter, who showed great poise and charm, taking into
acwunt the tragic recent loss of her husband Ron.
At the conclusion of the presentations, Les James promised
an event bigger tournament in 1982. How many other states
0
will have followed this example by then?
STOP PRESS
The Channel Nine helicopter forms an interesting backdrop
for the committee of the Brisbane Gun Club.
The helicopter "delivered" the official party, which included
top executives of the sponsoring companies.
Over $2000.valuein trophies was offered to entrants in the
Challenge, arid entry was restricted to non-registered wmpetitors.
The atmosphere all day was one of complete relaxation as
each channel established its campaign headquarters behind
the trap field allwated to it.
Leading Brisbane Gun Club identities provided constant
coaching advice, and some very creditable scores were recorded.
Club President, Les James spoke with the GTSN correspondent and said. "Today is probably the most important in the
history of this club. We are entertaining people of great
influence in the media area, and if this doesn't have the effect
of boosting the coverage of clay busting by television stations
I'll be very surprised."
He went on, ''Today's success, where every television
ohannel in the city area is represented by a large contingent,
is sufwient to suggest that the next step is to go National. Let
eaoh State Association accept the challenge of getting something similar going in their state, and we will endeavor to find
a sponsor for a National competition!"
At the end of the day. the clubhouse was jammed tight with
supporters anxious to cheer their champions. Channel Nine
personality Mike Gibson was Master of Ceremonies and
developed the presentation into a most entertaining session.

Newton Thomas as coach.
The match has been provided as an alternative tournament
for Australia's shooting athletes who withdrew from the
Moscow Olympics.
With funds provided by: the Federal Government, the squad
spent ten days at the world famous Fort Benning headquarters of the U.S. Army School of Marksmanship.
During training sessionsat the military base, Ellis, Rumbel
and Hale have been performing very consistently, and are
certain to draw attention in the Mexico match.
Two other Australian internationals left Australia on
March 25 to travel direct to Mexico City to also compete in the
'Benito' tournament.
Alex Crikis and Peter Blackmore, both of Melbourne, are
anxious to gain further international experience, with a view

SQUAD
The International Sub Committee met in Melbourne late in
March and decided on a plan which will lead to the establishment of a National Training. Squad.
The squad manager/coach has been named
he is Peter
Quire, South Australian Director of Coachinr. who attended
an advanced coaching course at Fort ~ e n n i n g ,in
~ 1979.
~~,
It appears likely that he will call on other coaching
personnel to assist with specialist skills, which will ensure
that squad members get the best possible advice.
Details of the procedure to be used in determining the
members of the initial squad have been circulated to State
Associations, which have the task of making the initial
assessments. The squad is to be named at the end of JULY.
At the same meeting, it was agreed to stage an integrated
training camp, to be co-hosted by the State Associations in
South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria.
The project will be held at Griffith Clay Target Club, located
in the Riverina district of New South Wales, and invitations
will be extended to selected members of state training squads.
In addition, invitations have been sent to all other State
Associations. asking them to nominate potential national
training squad members if travel arrangements can be made.
The camp will span July 24 to July 26 and an effort is being
made to line up a panel of top lecturers.
The Association is encouraged by the enthusiastic attitude
being shown by the committee of the Griffith Clay Target Club
in assisting with planning for the project.

During March, one of Remington's senior international
marketing executives. Bill Boettner made his annual pilgrimage to Australia to visit the Australian agents for Remington
Arms and Ammunition, Boustead Australia.
He was in Australia for only a few days, bu! managed a
number of calls in New South Wales and Victoria during that
time.
Mr Boettner commented that U.S. market conditions had
been difficult in recent times, although Remington seemed to
be holding a satisfactory market share.
However, severe legislative controls in Canada had caused a
savage market downturn, and this has had a significant effect
on U.S. manufacturers.
During his brief visit, Mr Boettner was accompanied by
Boustead's Marketing Manager, Ross Levinsohn.
* * *
*
Another recent visitor from the States was Wmeheste!rs
Product Development Manager, Larry Larsen.
The prime purpose of Mr Larsen's visit was to assist with a
special product release which local Winchester personnel had
arranged for a select group of magazine writers.
On April 3, senior Winchester marketing executives Bruce
Burns, Ken Lowry and Rod Laidlaw met a group of Australian writers at Melbourne's Tullamarine Airport. (Brian Mark
joined the party a little later].
The group included Heinz Raz (Australian Shooters' Journal), Pat Browne (Clay Target Shooting News and Australian
Shooters' Journal), Colin Shadbolt (Australian Outdoors).
Nick Harvey (Sporting Shooter), John Robinson (Australian
Shooters' Journal and Sporting Shooter) and Ross Williams
(Australian Shooters' Journal).
The party was then taken to Picola near the Murray River.
where Field and Game Association enthusiast. George Cunningham has established a hunting lodge, called "Bellinda
Lodge."
Mr Larsen gave shotgun writers a full run down on the
output of the Japanese facility of Olin. and pointed out that
Winchester will~NOTbe vacating the firearms field when the
New Haven (USA) factory is closed late in 1981.
He predicted that there will be a conscious attempt to
promote 20 gauge shotguns later this year. as the local plant
at Geelong brings its 20G and .410G plant on stream.
Generally, the promotion was considered to be a great
success, although there were a few very "tired" journos seen
passing through Melbourne on their way home after the
seminar.

NEW DEVICE FOR
SHOTGUN HUNTERS
Tied of letting that duck or pheasant get away! An Alberta
inventor, Mr Carl Rueb. has come up with a shotgun sight
that will help hunters shoot better.
Qne of the most common problems in shooting is not
getting one's cheek down on the gun stock and as a result
shooting high. The key to the Rueb Sight is its placement mid
way between the front of the barrel and the shell chamber. In
this position you must get your cheek down on the stock to
line up the sight with the f r a t bead. The result is greater
accuracy and more game.
Mr Rueb has designed sights to fit single barrel shotguns
with either a vent rib or plain barrel. Made of shock proof
plastic, the sight is easy to mount by simply slipping over the
barrel end and tightening.

Dear Noel,
Please find enclosed notes regarding Guyra Gun Club
(NSW). We would appreciate some space in the May edition of
"Shooters News."
The "Shooters News" is a most welcome publication in clay
target shooting circles in this part of the state.
On the subject of advertising content in the "Shooters
News" and as my profession is advertising. I must say the
more the better!
Many readers would not be aware of the ast.ronomica1 cost
of writing. setting. printing and distributing such a publication.
The standard of advertising and reproduction in C.T.S.N. is
very good. The advertising agencies and Waterwheel Press
Pty. Ltd. must be credited for the end product.
This high standard cannot be maintained without revenue.
so keep the ads coming and more full colour ones.
Yours sincerely.

Dear Noel.
On behalf of the Tamworth Gun Club. X wish to extend an
invitation to all shooters to attend the 1981 NSW State Trap
Carnival. which our club is hosting on September 4. 5 and 6.
We feel that it will be a great success due to the fact that we
will have a six trap layout. We will be able to put on a bigger
programmed number of targets which is a real necessity
, when you are expecting people to travel long distances.
The club has set a target ,of 300 nominations for the
carnival. Even though the first day is not a public holiday we
base our estimate conservatively, mainly because this is the
first year the events do not clash with equally popular Gum
tree championships held at Boggabri.
Tamworth is known Austxalia wide as Country Music
Capital, but this year it is about to take on a new title - Clay
Target Capital 1981. What a statement to tender.
Well you put Tamworth on your agenda and we'll make it a
shoot you will remember.
Col Burt,
Publicity Officer.

Dear Mr Southey.
Thankyou very much for your Iund letter written on my
appointment as a Judge of the Federal Court.
One of the most interesting facets of my Ministerial life was
as Minister responsible for sport. It gave me a great deal of

MANGOPLAH GUN CLUB (NSW)
Advice has been received that Gordon Allen, Secretary of
Mangoplah Gun Club, suffered a serious spinal injury in
March 1980,which has left him a paraplegic.
Following many months in hospital in Wagga, and two
separate visits each extending for a month, at the Royal
Northshore Hospital in Sydney, Gordon is now back home
and is continuing his interest in the development of clay
target shooting.
He has written that Mangoplah Gun Club is currently in
recess, but the Committee under the leadership of President J.
Cox, is still meeting regularly, with a view to re-establishing
the club's activities at the earliest possible time.
Gordon's contribution to shooting has been quite extensive,
as he held dual responsibilitiesfor many years - these were
as Secretary of Wagga Gun Club and the same position at
Mangoplah.

GUYRA GUN CLUB
aorNa GREAT<
-
(from Jamie Poole, Club Captain]
Guyra Gun Club is going through an expansion period and
with great success.
The club was formed in 1963 with very few hard-working
members and started operating with one Snipe Trap and a
small shed.
Under the guidance and devotion of Rex Varley, who has
been Secretary-Treasurer since the ctub's formation: the late
Athol Creagan: and Herb Williamson as Past Presidents. the
club has gone from strength to strength.
In February the 1981 office bearers were elected:
President, Ray Hammond; Secretary, Rex Varley: Captain.
Jamie Poole: Vice-Captain. Ray Sweeney.
The Club has just installed a second Skeet layout and
remodelled No. 3 D.T.L. Trap. Guyra now has two skeet and
four D.T.L. layouts, with lights for D.T.L. and a P.xsystem
which has been a great help.
In 1977 the Club House was extended to cater for the N.S.W.
State Carnival and for big numbers in the 'cool' months. Being
4000 feet above sea level. it can be very cool indeed so the open
fire is welcome.
Average club shoot numbers have been 45. club membership is now 80 and at the 1980 Christmas Shwt. 78
shooters attended, which would take some tossing.
Guyra Gun Club also takes part in major club and inter-club
Challenges which the Club wins more times than loses. They
are The McCansh Tin Tray against Inverell and Glen Innes
(New England) Gun Clubs. The Creagan-Cox Cup (Slreet)
against Coffs Harbour Gun Club. The Chizzotti Shield against
Ballandean in Southern Queensland and The Northern Newspapers Shield for combined Skeet and D.T.L.
The February Open Shoot had 111 shooters and families
a great result considering a very serious drought in this area.
Shooters attended from a s far away as St George in Queensland and Dapto on the South Coast. 25 000 targets were
thrown over the two days. The catering under the supervision
of Vikki McKay and well-known member Victor Raszewski
(known to his shooting mates as "The Polish Poisoner"), a
restaurant proprietor in Armidale, was without doubt, the
best you would find at any shoot.
The standard of shooting was very competitive. with long
shoot-offs being the order. One of the most exciting shoot-offs
was between Geoff Salmon and Ken Denyer of Moree for
Overall High Gun. This was shot in fading light and Ken
Denyer up held the honor of the plains country by winning
after a long tussle.
The Club has had good results in the area of publicity with
television and press coverage and will be endeavouring to use
these media more in 1981-82. If the 1981 Open Shoot was
good. Guyra will strive for a bigger and better one in 1982,
hosting many major events, both in.D.T.L. and Skeet. 0

ANOTHER. CLAY BUSTER
FEATURES IN NEW YEAR
HONORS .LIST
(Staff Writer)
Mrs Barbara Mules, Secretary of the South Australian Gun
Club, has advised that Mr Fred Atkinson of Kilburn received
an Imperial Service Medal in the New Years Honors List.
A former digger and country butcher, Fred Atkinson has
more recently been a messenger for the South Australian
State Treasury.
Fred retired-in February 1980 after 31 years of clerical and
inter-departmental delivery duties.
He said, "It has been quite a year, with my retirement party
in February, and now this award." Fred Atkinson has become
widely known at South Australian Gun Club and clubs in the
Metropolitan area because of his ability to compete despite the
loss of one arm.
He was a World War XI Mortar Sergeant in the 2nd loth
Battalion, and lost an arm while fighting in the Middle East.
On behalf of all clay busters throughout Australia, we
congratulate you Fred on your tremendous achievement.

PRESIDENT
(Staff Wrfter)
TAKE MY PLAN AND M E , OR,
NEITHER!
This was virtually the ultimatum
Annual General Meeting of the South
Association by the retiring President,
he accepted a re-nomination for
Mr Martin had just finished hi
being elected in February, 1980. During that time, he had
recognised a number of areas which needed urgent "surgery"
if the State Association was to continue to progress.
Consequently, rather than just talk about the prublems,
Leighton proceeded to do something positive - that "some
thing" was the creation of his plan which virtually is an
organisation chart in which various functions and ~ositions
are defined.
He has listed various duties for members of the
Council, and received full support for his plan, wh
resented it to the A.G.M.
In a recent interview with CTSN, Leighton Martin said:"T
purpose of my plan is to spread the existing work 1
and to provide a clearly defined path of comrnunicatio
He pointed out that, in cases where Council members
they have too many responsibilities, some of these can
further delegated to other administrators co-opted fr
within the zone structure.
The S.A.C.T.A. has 'appointed a new Secretary. She is
Cobbin, well known clay buster, and wife of George Cob
Leighton Martin's plan is sure to create some changes an
will be interesting to watch the progress.

QUEENSLAND CLAY TARGET
ASSOCIATION REPORT
On February 25 S.E. Zone President Gerry Chizzotti presented the Zone Coach Stafford Smith with a complete Audic
Visual outfit to assist with coaching in this zone.
This equipment was purchased following a large donation
received from a n anonymous donor for this specific purpose.
The purchase was made following advice sought from Mr
Kevin Reedman of Chandler's. Mr Reedrnan arranged for a
technician from his firm to instruct the coaches on how to use
the equipment, and those present were able to recognise the
immense value to be obtained from its use. This equipment
will be used during the Combined S.E. Zone and Western Zone
Coaching seminar to be held on May 23 and 24, 1981.
The State Carnival organisers have completed all arrange
ments, and the Association expects record attendances this
year. A report on this match will appear in a later issue of
CTSN.
You will note from the Financial Report the growth of the
Q.C.T.A. in the past 12 months, and more importantly, the
need for the Association to raise more money. If you have any
ideas on this please write to the Secretary, we welcome all
, suggestions.
The Association has implemented a 1982 Nationals planning committee, which consists of R. Dean. E. Chizzotti, L.
James. D. Smith. T. Meadows. D.Evans, K. Reedman and B.
Grice.
The following Major Shoots are to be conducted in Queensland during May:
State Trap Carnival at Kingaroy. Cunnamulla Gun Club.
Gympie. Ballandean. Townsville.
Did you know?
Cunnamulla Gun Club is in the Western Zone 823 km from
Brisbane. This club was reformed and affilliated in 1952, as it
went into recess during the war years 1939-45. Mr L. S. R.
(Sep) Stewart was a member of this club. and represented this
State on the National Executive for many years.
Gympie Gun Club was formed in 1975 and affilliated with
the A.C.T.A. in that year. Gympie is 190 km from Brisbane
and is in the S.E. Zone. This club is a picture.
Townsville Gun Club was formed in 1913, and in 1948 the
Commonwealth D.B. was shot for the first time and won by
J.N. Brazier from N.S.W. Newton Thomas was then affilliated
through this club, and it was one of the few clubs to maintain
its affilliation throughout the war years.
Ballandean Gun Club is in the S.E. Zone, 236 km from
Brisbane in the Granite Belt. reknown for its fruit orchards.
The first Open Shoot conducted by this club was on May 1,

SERVICE AWARD OF
THE MONTH
CONDAMINE
The SERVICE AWARD for May goes to the staff of
Waterwheel Press, who collectively have made a major
contribution to the improved standards of CTSN.
In particular, the performance of Miss Joanne Markey is
acknowledged. Joanne joined the staff of Waterwheel Press
two years ago as an apprentice type-setter and compositor.
She was the only girl in a section that included five men, but
very quickly responded to the professional guidance of chief
typesetter Bill Hutchinson, who had been connected with
CTSN since it moved to Shepparton in May 1976.
On the composition side, Joanne has had Philip Kelley as
her mentor, with Gary Crisp always available as a back-up.
Joanne has been attending trade school regularly and her
work on "Clay Target Shmtiig News" has been good experience. She capped off an excellent year in 1980 by k i n g
announced as second highest in the printing trade's compositor examinations.
Manager of Waterwheel Press, M r Chris Wilkins, said.
when told of the award "Joanne is one of our most enthusiastic staff members, and is popular with her work-mates."
The remaining members of the production team are Bruce
Mitchell (Production Manager). John Arter (Solna operator.
which produces the colour covers) and the press operators of
Shepparton News, who print the text pages.
"Clay Target Shooting News" is assembled and packed for
posting by a team of Shepparton girls, led by "The Gun".
Russell Torney .
These operators form a pretty formidable team, and the
AdministrativeUnit of the Australian Clay Target Association
is grateful for the deep personal interest each member of the
team takes in the progress of ''Clay Target Shooting News".

ROYAL V SIT LEAVES
WRK ON SPORT
During late March, His Ro-yal Highness,~rFncePhillip, Duke of ~ a i n b u r g h ,
visited AustraLia for the prime purpose of
acting as Chairman for a conference of
the In ternationd Assembly of National
Sports Confederations.
The meeting proved to be another feather in the cap of the
youthful Confederation of Australian Sport. This is the
second major success chalked up by the Confederation in just
four months
the previous exercise was the staging of the
"SPORT AUSTRALIA '80"awards last December (see Page 21
of February '81 issue of CTSN).
The highlight of the conference, apart from the professional
chairmanship produced by the Royal guest, was the election
of top Australian sports administrator M r Wayne Reid O.B.E.
as President of the International Assembly of National Sports
Confederations.
When the Confederation of Australian Sport was first
formed in 1976,Mr Reid became its inaugural President, a.
position he still holds. During his term of office, the CAS has
racked up an impressive list of successes.
Not only has CAS provided a level of unity amongst national
sporting associations that was previously unknown in Australia, but it has also filled a very useful role in lobbying
governments on behalf of sport generally.
Prior to his involvement with CAS. Wayne Reid had become
widely known for the job he performed in lifting the Lawn
Tennis Association of Australia out of the doldrums. Additionally. he has been President of the influential Melbourne
Football Club - part of the giant Australian Rules fcatball
machine that dominates sport in the southern Australian
states.
Many observers have been quick to point out that the new
International Assembly. with a membership that already lists
54 nations. will quickly overshadow the International Olympic Federation. in terms of total influence. The International
Olympic Federation caters only for 24 Olympic sports.
whereas the new group could ultimately claim to speak on
behalf of up to 200 sports.
Those of u s who are inside the sports administration
maehine are concerned a t t h i s type otpublieity. Surely i t i s
preferable for every encouragement to be given to the two
bodies to establish the closest possible communications
links t o ensure top CO-OPERATION rather than CONFRONTATION.
The degree to which international' politics are idfluencing
sport decisions is becoming quite alarming and it must surely
be -in the best interests of sport to have all international
representative bodies working closely in unison.
The Reid success is further evidence of Australia's increasing influence in the world of sport and all Australian sports
people should be Proud of such recognition.
One of the least known. but most important aspects of the
conference, was the detailed planning required to meet
security needs.
In many respects. the project became a sports version of the
Commonwealth Heads of Government conference, one of
which is scheduled for Melbourne later this year.
In view of the fact that the Federal Government assisted in
the funding of the project to the tune of $50 000 - that's
$50 000 of yours and my money! -readers can be excused for
asking what did the Australian community get out of the
conference.
Probably the most important factor k the increased international awareness of Australia's existence in the area of sports
administration. Our country is so geographically remote that
major sporting confederations in other countries rarely if

conference.
ever, hear of Australia.,.So, acting as host nation for such an
important occasion must provide some rub-off.
The undoubted success of the exercise in terms of each
affiliate nation being seen to co-operate with its sporting
neighbours also provides a giant "plus."
The election of Mr Reid as chief of the world body is further
evidence that the "investment" has produced a worthwhile
dividend.
Well done, Confederation of Australian Sport!
