To Lessen Tripod Trouble. S$ a@ solution for the annoyanas and trouble attendant upom * ® tripod by hand op picture-taking excursions, a camer enthusiast has devised « simple scheme. A metal tripod is used; one of the kind which folds compactly inte a small space. This is strapped clos@ to the shoulder beneath the coat of the carrier, a rubber band holding the legs tightly together. In this position, says Popular Mechanics, the tripod tg out of the way, and the carrier 1s no® put to the trouble of hanging onte it by hand. By always having @ trie pod along in this fashion, many go00@ pictures are secured which otherwise ‘ would be lost for lack of a suitable 2 | camera support.
