Shooting Sport

A week ago, Capt. John McNally of the U.S. Army was in Barcelona, testing the new Olympic pistol range. He may be making a return trip this summer. McNally is a favorite to win one of two Olympic berths on the U.S. shooting team's roster in rapid-fire pistol. The second trials match starts today in Chino, with McNally nine points ahead of Roger Mar of Colorado Springs, Colo. The top eight shooters from the U.S. national team were invited to compete for the two positions.

Connie Petracek of Nashville, Tenn., won the U.S. Olympic women's air pistol trials at Chino.

For Launi Meili, U.S. Olympic shooter, nutritionist, part-time aerobics instructor, artist, wife and aspiring physical therapist, this was huge. Not big. Huge . Meili was talking about one of life's great discoveries--the Knotty Pine restaurant of Cascade, Colo. "It was a little shack," she said, recalling the first time she and her husband, Leo Lachambre, stumbled upon it. Inside were chairs and tables made of logs in a sort of early-frontier motif. And those prices: Pancakes cost $1.
