Andrews, director of the popular Plainfield Municipal Band, a3 well as conductor of the Westfield Band, admits that shoot; ing is his hobby. Brought up in Iowa, along the Mississippi, in his youth he had plenty of opportunity to hunt and shoot. Hi3 father is a noted gunner and the son has inherited the father's ability. When he was six, Mr.

Andrews revealed, he received his first gun, one of the BB variety. At nine he proudly possessed his first shotgun and when he was 16 he was given his first rifle. Mr. Andrews started trapshooting at 11 and when he was 12 he competed in the Grand American Handicap, conducted by the Amateur Trapshooting Association. He won third in the national contest.

Duck hunting is his favorite sport and it's no secret that during the seasonhe arises early in the morning, many hours before he is due to report in school, where he is supervisor of music, and goes in search of game. On Rifle Team During World War days, he won a place on the Iowa civilian rifle team which competed at Camp Perry. He is a member of the Lone Cedar Gun Club, where h.e has captured at least once all of the challenge trophies.

The two first met at the University of Iowa. Shortly after Mr. Andrews was made supervisor of music Plainfield schools. Mr. Brown 'was engaged as an assistant super visor.

He has traveled extensively with musical units and has done considerable theater pit work with orchestras.

His friends declare he is a fine automobile mechanic.

In the cellar of his home he has built a model railroad, with more than 200 feet of track. Unlike most amateur railroad enthusiasts, Mr. Brown isn't satisfied just to assemble the model cars and track, but he has done the actual casting for the coaches, locomotives and other accessories. About four years ago Mr. Brown constructed a trailer described as being most complete in every detail.

It has accommodations for six adults and has been used on numerous trips. Mr, Brown took it to the West Coast on a "shakedown cruise." BROOK For Safety and Economy Buy Your Radio at WM. SGHWABTZ BUDIO Repairs On All Make Sets 160 E. FRONT ST. Tel.
