FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1940 Camera Fan Skeets ing he would go— game. But Bob is no to ¢ BOB could only have his way, a-hunt- kest Africa in pursuit of big llionaire. So he satisfies his hunting instincts by shooting pictures — photos of everything. less camera fans. The circus p 30b, you see, is one of America’s count- yed his town the other night. Bob had s wanted to snare some prize photoflash shots of circus acts. But how to do this, what with his seat in the crowd so far away Here is his answer: the question. from his quarry? That was He captured circus scenes here shown with the aid of, believe it or not—with midgets. No. . not with the help of the familiar circus midget. Truth i is, Bob bagged each picture with a single 1 tiny flash bulb no bigger than.a walnut. So small yet so powerful is the peewee lamp that photographers are calling it the “mighty midget.” The rest of the story accounting for Bob’s succes& in getting clear action shots from far away this. is He used high-speed film. He took advantage of the fact that the mid- get bulb’s flash is a point- source of light. This per- mitted use of a spot-type reflector with the result that Bob was able to rifle a powerful “bullet” of light at his distant targets.

There are usually from four to tests with the City Council what its future actions will be. The executive committee of the Community Recreation Com- mittee, after some study, wishes to make the following recom- mendation: That the City, in accordance with an Enabling Act passed in 1925, dedicate and set apart for use as playgrounds, recreetion centers and other recreation pur- poses, any lands or buildings or equipment it may have avail- able. That having dedicated and set apart certain lands, buildings, and equipment, for such pur- poses,it provide for . their con- duct,equipment and maintenance. eccording to the provisions of this Act, by making an approp- tiation from.the general muni- cipal funds. That the City further, resolution or ordinance, vest the power to provide, maintain and conduct playgrounds, recreation centers and other recreational seperating, which will ‘be- ‘bys six destroyers anchored at the Station pier and in the outer har- activities and facilities in the Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce is suggested in this connection be- cause it is at present a well or- ganized body, and has already es- tablished a recreation division. This would mean that the Cham- ber of Commerce would not have any additional financial burden placed upon it and yet would be able to function as the logical, central and coordinate head of recreational facilities throughout the city. The executive committee wish- es to go on record at this time that it will function as a body at La Concha Park only until the project is actually under way and imme- diately after the Catholic Church Benefit Frolic is finished, and in no event,will they continue be- yond the time when the $36.16 in the treatury is gone. | eevevseevececowowrsoeree | por No visitors allowed.
