John No:l, who Jec- tured before the National Geographic jety at the Washington Auditorium Friday night. Capt. Noel. one of the party which sought to climb Mount Everest. gar- nered some of the most beautiful color photographs of the area which was the pleasure land of the great moguls yet obtained and also played his motion- picture camera upon the human types, the village industries and, finally, by using a stop-motion camera, showed the dawn r Kashmir Mountains—a vl h that tock more than two hours to take and less ‘than 60 sec- " | onds to show. _Motion pictures were obtained of the | river parade of the Maharajah along the | | main water highway of Kashmir’s beau~ tiful capital, Srinagar, “City of the Sun,” and one of the most! amazing “shots” was that of the “traffic jam” of the gondolalike craft that crowded the waterway after the passing of the potentate’s majestic river carriage.
