the standards are now set this j. placed
with the broad side facing across the
street. throwing the greatest amount ~
light that way. Since the distance he
tween poles ~ the same side ~ the
street il about three times the distance
across the street il seems to me that
the most light should be thrown up and
down the street. ~ placing the trian
gle If globes IA right angles 20 the curb.
As il j. the distribution Of light il
made more uneven ~ the poles being
located opposite each other. but | am
finding fault with that-it looks
better 81. However. il brings about
this condition: The b~roadside strength
of each pole il focused on the narrow
