Annapolis Skipper Leading
As Winds Hamper Yachts
BY the Associated Press

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Mar.
24.-Weak and unfavorable winds
kept the closely-bunched St
Petersburg to-Havana racing fleet
still within Tampa Bay four hours
after the start today.
The % trim yachts kept lacking
first on one course, then another
seeking every puff of wind to carry
them out of the bay and into the
open waters of the Gulf of Mexico
After IL of those 20 miles, the
57-foot yawl Caribee held slight
advantage. Her skipper, Carleton
Mitchell, is from Annapolis, Md.
The wind varied from four to 10
miles an hour. 1t was from the
southwest, almost dead in the face
of the fleet.
With craft scattered all over The
bay, it was difficult to determine
just which were in the better posi-
ton. In general the light wind
favored the smaller boats.

Of about 1/30th second. Those
with faster shutters can be ad-
justed to the required shutter
speed. Don't make the mistake
of attempting to alter the expo
sure by means of the aperture
because the important thing in
this case is the accuracy of the
shutter speed. If it turns out that
your lens speed is too slow to
record satisfactory shot of the
television image at the normal
brightness setting of the set, you
can get around this by increasing
the image brightness of the tube
or using a faster film.
The television picture should be
regarded just as any other subject
for your camera. If your exposure
is correct you will still get exactly
what there is on the screen-no
more, no less. If there is too
much image contrast on the
screen you can expect a contrssty
negative. If the image brightness
is too great you will get a mega
tive blocked up In the highlights
and with a loss Of overall texture.
Horizontal and vertical centering
Of the TV picture must also be
accurate if a good Photographic
reproduction Of the picture is to
be obtained. If you are doubtful
of any of these points or if you
are not positive that the screen

by all means turn to a station test

justments to bring the image to

Travellers telephoning domestic
airlineS these days hear this fire.
quently: Reservation lines are
busy now. Will you wait. please?"
That has been going on for sew
eral weeks. and is an indication
that year-end holiday travel by air
is crowding up. An attempt to get
choice flights for a week or so be-
fore Christmas confirms it. Many
have been sold out. And the situa-
ton is getting tighter day by day,
creeping up further into the second
week of December.
The extent of the sell-out varies
with the individual lines. All, how
ever. still are welcoming inquiries
from those who wish to fly away
for Christmas. They'll try to work
out something. if the traveller al
lows a measure of f1exibility. In
some cases, they will advise going
on the waiting list for a particular
flight. Backlogs on some others
are hopelessiy long. and even the
waiting lists are closed.
This situation, fraught with
headaches and some heartbreaks,
soon will pass. Then what? With
the holiday spur of travel gone,
how early should the vacationer
make plane reservations? We put
the question up to several of the
airlines, and the advance period
advised for reservations ranges
from two to six weeks.
With heavy Florida vacation
travel coming up, Eastern Air
Lines suggested reservations of
about six weeks for its preferred
nonstop and deluxe flights to
Florida points. TWA, on the
theory that plans are firmer when
not made SO far in advance, sug-
gested two weeks under normal
conditions" in 1852. American
Airlines had this suggestion: Try
two weeks or so before the fight;
If sold out and another flight
won't serve. go on the waiting list

resort to an assist from
tape measure.
First. because you will be work
ing close to the subject, measure
the distance from lens to screen
and use your forcusing scale ac-
Icordingly-don't guess. Also look
out for parallax, which may trip
you up if you have had to move
in very close with the camera.
Depending upon the focal length
|of your lens, you will be between
p and 4 feet from the TV screen,
considering the size of the screen.
It is very important that your
camera is placed directly in front
of the screen-do not try to shoot
at an angle and remember that
la tripod will help line up the
camera. as well as insure a good
composition and a negative free
from camera movement.
Incidentally, and before we get
off the subject of cameras and
shutters, don't attempt to pno-
tograph TV screen with a focal
plane shutter. On a static sub
ject it can be used but leave this
type shutter alone otherwise, be-
cause they expose only the part
of the film that is directly behind
the shutter slot at the time the
moving slot is opposite that Sec
ton of film. Since we know that
the scanning beam works on al
ternate parts of the screen at diff
ferent times it is apparent that
there is a wide margin of differ
ence possible between the area
scanned by the beam and the
area exposed by the local plane
| shutter.
If you want to give it a try just
to see what will happen you will
probably wind up with a picture
having parts overexposed, parts
underexposed. and with other
parts blank.
II your camera won't focus at
distances close enough to photo
graph the TV screen you can slip
on a supplementary lens that is
used for making portraits and
copies. These lenses are very in
expensive and you will find other
uses for them as we'll as the pres
ent one.
When shoting the screen of your
TV set, it is best done in a room
that has all the lights out or very
subdued to prevent your camera
from picking up reflections from
the tube or its glass cover. If the
screen should be smeared by fin
germarks or is dusty or just plain
dirty. wipe it clean with the same
lens cleaning fluid and tissue that
you use for your camera lens and
you'll get better picture for your
effort.
1t may take a few experimental
shots before you are sure of your
self. If you have any difficulty in
figuring exposures make several
different ones and develop the lot

Taking Pictures of the |

I Television has created a new
type Of camera fan. This one col
Ilects pictures of celebrities and
stars of the entertainment field
right in the privacy of his own
living room. And taking pictures
Iof television images is as easy as
pie once you have grasped the idea
of how they are formed on the
tube of your set.
Without dipping too deeply into
the field of electronics. we can
give you a fairly good idea of
what makes the picture visible on
the TV tube. Take a close look
at the image on your tube or
screen" and you will notice that
it is made up of a series of parallel
lines running horizontally across
the face of the screen. There are
500-odd lines in the screen re-
gardless of the size of your set,
today's instructions will apply. On
the larger screens the lines are
just larger than those on the
smaller tubes-not greater in
number.
A electronic beam scans these
lines in two sequences, horizontally
from left to right and from top
to bottom. The beam first scans
every other line of the screen and
then goes back to scan the alter
nate lines. This all takes place
in I30th Of a second to form
the picture that you see. Per-
sistence of vision takes care Of the
rest and you don't notice these
visual moves. just as your eye fails
to notice the change from one
frame to another when motion
pictures are projected.
Exposure Must Match.
But the important point is that
80 complete television picture i'm
pressions are registered on the
screen within one second. Our
problem is to stop on film -one of
these pictures without any over
tapping from proceeding or sue
ceeding pictures. The answer Is
obvious: The exposure should be
close to 1/30th second for the best
results. The exposure. as a gen.
|eral rule. should be no faster (if
you prefer thap 1/30th because,
as we have pointed out. 1t takes
that long for one complete image
to be formed on the screen.
