Photo article dated April 11, 1962 partially reads, "A 10-year-old Burbank boy, Cloid Hammers Jr., is the first of his age to hold the coveted Distinguished Expert junior rifle medal. Young Hammer was honored at the club's annual meeting last week. A member of the local club for the past three months, Cloid Jr., comes by his shooting ability naturally. His father Cloid Sr. has been a top shooter for more than 20 years and is a director of Angeles Shooting Club." Cloid Hammers Jr., left, receives praise from George Stocia during an annual club meeting of the Burbank Junior Rifle Club held at McCambridge Park in Burbank.
