While Mr. Stack was apparently an all around nice fellow and a fine wingshot, he was never in the Olympics.

According to IDMB, he did participate in the '35 and '36 national championships, coming in second in 35 and setting a record (with his squad) in '36.

Here's a video from the coverage of the '84 Olympics of Mr. Stack demonstrating skeet shooting to Arthur Ashe, who was working as a commentator:
