Drury, All-State forward ‘last! ‘year, gave a brilliant exhibition in that quarter, sinking four slap shots under the basket with bril- ,liant tipping. The lanky brothers, Parke, Bob and Jack. accounted for an additional six points be- tween thera that quarter. The Conchs were throttled with three points in the same canto. Striving wainly to get back the lead, Key West was again outscored the final period, ten points to six. It was just a question of too much height for the local prep- sters. Striving mightily against the odds, the tide finally ran against them when their lanky opponents started putting short slaps through the hoop with tell- accuracy.

A dirty lens, for example, will cause smudgy prints. A lens is the eye of your camera. Can you see clearly if your glasses are smudged by finger prints? Cleaning a lens is a very simple operation. AH you need is a soft, un- starched linen handkerchief and perhaps a maich or pencil, if the lens is quite small. The rear surface of the lens can easily be reached by removing the back of the camera. ¥f the camera has a double lens (one behind and one in front of the shut- ter diaphragm), the front combina- tion may be removed by turning to the left, which will allow you to work through the shutter opening when set for “time,” with the hand- kerchief over the end of the match or lead pencil. If the lens is quite dirty breathe on it and then rub quickly with the handkerchief. Be | It isn’t necessary and might scratch the surface. have @ clean lens and that your dition ‘let's discuss some “do's” >and “don'ts.” era it is so easy unknowingly "#6 have your finger extend slighfy¥ —or more so—over the lens. The re- sult is obvioas. You will have an un- attractive black smudge over part of your picture. So keep your fingers away from the front of the lens. Another error is a double expo- sure caused by failing to turn the film roll to the next number after snapping a picture. If you fail to turn it you may find, when your prints are returned, that quite mi- raculously grandma is sitting in her favorite chair out in the middle of a lake. When using a focusing type cam- era be sure to set the lens at the correct distance mark, for if you don't the chances are that your pic- ture will be out of focus and blurred. Here's another one. Unless you have an extremely fast lens and shutter don’t try to take broadside snaps of fast-moving subjects. Mov- | ing objects can, however, be caught, erea with an ordinary camera, if Taking it for granted that you camera is in good mechanical con-i ARCHITECT’S OFFICE Of interest to’'Key Westers and Visitors“ alike is the reléaSe this weekend concerning the opening of the only architect’s office in this city by John Allan Long at How the crowds are turning out in answer to salés here!
