I have McGivern's book as well--which is of course great.

But also have memories of my father (then in high school) telling me about McGivern's shooting demonstration on if I recall correctly, the football field of the high school--which was then on edge of Lewistown. Ed put marbles between the fingers of his hand, threw them all up in the air, then shattered every one with his revolver. Would have loved to have seen that!
