At the base camp, a group of

five, guided by a prospector or
geologist. will forage out over the
tundra in search of precious met

Film Flon, now modern little

until 1928. when gold, copper,
nickel and platinum spurred a
boom. A more recent stampede,
in 1947, saw 5000 claims staked
at Lynn Lake, 100 miles northeast
of Film Flon. Experts. however,
reckon that only about per cent
of the mineral wealth of the area
has been discovered and that fu-
ture finds will dwarf those of the

Achievements of Color Movie Film
By Alexander J. Wedderburn
Curator Of Photography
The Smithsonian Institution

With the bright days of summer
in the offing. movie fans will soon
be turning thoughts toward the
use OF color films. Those who
have used color Aim seldom are
satisfied again with its black and
white counterpart. Beginners hes
itate to use color for fear that
1t Is q difficult process to master.
but the fact is that 1t Is Just as
easy to make pictures in color. II
properly exposed, color Aim is
the medium to really bring your
movies to life and give them the
snap and sparkle of realism that
can never be captured with mono
chrome.
The first thing to consider is
the kind Of color Aim to use. Color
film is much more sensitive to
changes in lighting conditions
than black and white, so the
manufacturers have q specialized
color medium for each type of
lighting used. First there is
film for shooting color out of
doors; then there Is another for
use under photof1oods; and there
is still another for use with tung-
stem lights. So be sure that you
specify the type film for your
needs when you make your pur-
chase.
We should also point out that
there are filters available that
may be used If the occasion
arises where you are stuck with
one type of film and find that you
must expose 1t under lighting
conditions other than it was in
tended for. However. with all
types of color film plentiful, such
an occasion is not likely to arise.
The use of filters in color work
calls for a somewhat specialized
knowledge Of their use and we do
not recommend the practice for
IllC dtCl dSC dLIoUC
Color Film Is Slower.
You must also realize that color
film is much slower than black
and white. Whereas you may
have become accustomed to using
a film with the speed Of 100, you
will have to learn the limitations
of Aim with a speed Of 8. This
simply means that you will not
be able to shoot movies in color
when the light outside is bad.
The best hours for color filming
are between 10 in the morning
and in the afternoon. There
are exceptions to the rule.
Sunrise and sunset shots are
typical examples Of this. While
the colors will likely be much
exaggerated. this effect may even
be considered pleasing to most
photographers. II your camera is
made for single framing you can
record an entire sunrise or sunset
by exposing a frame at time. A
sufficient number of frames should
be exposed. however. to achieve
realism. Otherwise the sun will
appear to pop up or shoot down
out Of sight In unseemly haste.
Incidentally. you should not at
tempt to record scenes like this

June 3 Date
To Remember

A date to be remembered is
June 8. That is the date Of the
public hearing or the municipal
budget at the city commission
chambers. Representatives from
this community should prepare to
attend the hearing and express the
sentiments of the people.
It will be particularly import
ant since it will be the largest
budget in the history of the city.
The municipal income tax makes
it so.
The budget has not been made
out yet. The city manager must
put the budget on file in the Of
flee of the city clerk by 10 days
before the hearing date. When it
is made public, it should be stud
led very carefully to see what
benefits this area of the commu-
nifty are destined to get.
Thus far, we have received a
couple of jobs in the income tax
bureau. One policeman and no
firemen have been added to the
police and fire divisions. This,
obviously, is insufficient. There
are many more things we need on
the west end. We have nearly x
hausted ourselves pointing them
out. We don't think it is neces-
sary at this time to enumerate
them again.
But it is necessary to urge that
more citizens in this community
should display bgreater interest in
public affairs. This has been
urged many times in the past and
will be urged many times in the
future. 1t will be urged until we
see some Of this lethargy worked
off. Which will be soon. we pray
erfully hope.
We urge public-minded citizens
