In the seclusion of great public institutions and in private laboratories from the Great Smokiekto the Atlantic Ocean, they are creating the miracles of . modem science. They are the brains, the flesh and blood, of the Research Tri angle. Their work has already made every book, every article, about North Caro lina’s economy that was written even a year ago out of date. The Research Tri angle is a pew and dynamic North Carolina First. Every citizen owes R to himseK to know what it is, and what it means to his and his State’s future. l. • • .Vi/-, u M D#T.

If the shooter should ever get the two extremes on the one hand there’s liable to be some mis placed anatomy. Super-powered cartridges, says Pete BTown, arms editor of Sports Afield Hagazine, would beat a shooter to death if chambered in what ia now considered a light weight weapon. This brings up the ‘subject of butt-end reaction —name- ly, recdil, or “kick”. :RecoH can be calculated with a reasonable degree of accuracy. But what do we mean by “kick Y” Let’s say that kick is what we personal ly feel whether it's applied to the shoulder by a gun or to the seat of the pants by a well-directed boot. Because of their individual makeup, physical and mental, peo ple feel recoil differently. It is hard to say just how much recoil the average hunter is will ing to take. Some are willing to take added recoil in order to have a light weapon, and I would say that the greatest emphasis at the present time is on lightness.

African trophies, the hunter should be willing to accept more recoil alorfg with a heavier rifle. Shooting at dangerous game, a 60- foot-pound recoil energy is not out of place. Bird shooting, however, frequently rails for overhead shots where the recoil tends to- piledrive a shooter to the ground instead of permitting him to roll with the punch. Possibly you have heard talk concfrning minimised recoil effect with the autoloading guns. You may wonder if the reduced recoil effect is accounted for In reduced ballistics at the muzzle end. Hie answer is No. One thing is certain. If you want to follow the modem trend toward weapon lightness for our most pop-; ular American hunting, you will find it necessary to leave some of the modem power behind, unless you want to take a lot of recoil punishment. Easy Victory A decrepit horse was being offer ed to the highest bidder. An old farmer watched as a young man in riding breeches bid for the animal. When the sale was completed he turned to the young fellow. “Tell me,” he said, “What on earth are you going to do with that nag?” “Oh,” replied the cocky young sportsman, “I’m going to race him.” The farmer took a second look at the animal. “Well, you’ll win,”* he said.
