Two photographs taken of the
same area from different angles are
projected onto key map and their
outlines sketched in. The double
projection creates the optical il
lusion of third dimension on the
principle of the old stereoptical

has been developed for tracing con-
tour lines upon the key map and
measuring the height of objects on
the ground.
Reduces Field Observations.
An aerial photographer on a clear
day. for example. can take films of
a huge area, and these films can
be translated later into contour
maps without the necessity of ex-
tensive field observations, which
must depend on the weather. This
method was developed in Germany
years ago and German manufac-
turers held many patents on the
equipment.
The Army and Navy are using
the method extensively for spe-
cialized purposes which do not re-
quire so much detailed hand work.

their timing and aim.

Fortune Gallo, impresario of the

evening another great soprano at
the National Theater Her name is
Mobley Lushanya, an American In
dian, whose glorious voice is COM
bined with fine stage presence and
youth. Miss Lushanya sang San

appearance in Washington and one

hear her tomorrow in Aida"
The musical interlude in the first

quality and volume.
