Clay Pigeon Is Modern Marvel
CHICAGO SIxty two years ago Coney Island witnessed the first fight of a tiny device to sail through the air a clay pigeon. Invented by George Ligowsky in 1880 the brittle target, made from molten pitch and limestone, flies up to 60 mph and spins at thousands of revolutions per minute. The article traces origins from glass balls to modern targets and notes the crippled children effort in Kossuth County with services from audiometers to dental care.
