Third Dimension Photos
At RXO Keith Memorial

u
Third Dimensi0nal still@phote-
graphs went on display at the
Keith Memorial Theatre Begin
mig Thursday, November 7th
Division Manager Harry Nc
Donald saw several Of these
wholly new type pictures on a
recent New Cork trip and per-
suaded the inventor, Miklos Kas-
Sab, to give the Keith Memorial
Theatre the first public showing
in New England of these new
and remarkably lifelike photo
graphs.
These new third dimensional
kodaehromes are really remark
able. You look at a portrait, for
example, and there, in natural
color, sits a small, living, human
being. 1t Is just like seeing a
person. A bouquet OF flowers is
So genuine, that you put DOT a
so genuine, that you put out a
finger and actually your finger
seems to go into the picture and
under the outer petals Of the
flower.
People who have seen these
pictures are so enthusiastic
about their amazingly life-lIxe
resemblance, that they predict
the quick disappearance Of the
fiat surface photographs. The
cost Of these pictures however.
is still too high for commercial
purposes.

Greeks Place Italian
Losses in Albania
Al 10000 Men
Claim One-Third Of
Enemy Forces Have Been
Knocked Out of War
By the Associated Press.

ATHENS, Jan. 17.-New but Ill
defined gains in the Tepeleni area
and the region north of Klisura were
reported today in Greek dispatches
while the Greek press claimed that
one-third of Italy's forces in Albania
had been knocked out of war.
Dispatches told of capture of ad-
ditional prisoners, materials and i'm
portant positions after fierce but
unsuccessful Italian counter-attacks
during the day and night of Wednes-
day.
These counter attacks, with a
view to recapture of positions of
secondary Importance, one dispatch
said, all were "repelled with heavy
losses" Operations were hampered
by a heavy winter rain.
One-third of Entire Force.
The Greek press estimated italian
losses in Albania at 70,000-killed,
wounded prisoners and those sent
back to Italy for frostbite treatment.
The newspapers said this repre-
sented one third of the entire Facist
force in Albania at the start of the
war.

Court Voids Building Code
OF Chevy Chase View

The building ordinance Of Chevy
Chase View was held unconstitu-
tional because it was "too broad"
and contained unreasonable re-
strictions," according to q decision
handed down In Montgomery County
Circuit Court.
Gerald Warthen and Herman
Frazer were charged in the case
with failure to obtain a local build
ing permit for a house they had
built in Chevy Chase View, a spe-
cial taxing area north of Chevy
Chase, although they had obtained
a permit from the county: Judges
Charles w. Woodward and Stedman
Prescott heard the case.
The court ruled that the local
building code requirement that all
homes should cost not less than
IS 900 was an unreasonable restric-
ton. and that another provision re-
quiring homes to conform to the
general architectural design of other
homes in the section was too broad.
The court did not rule on the ques-
ton of whether or not a county
building permit superseded q local
permit.
