There has been a minimum Of
real master chess in this country

thing by sponsoring a small but
select event including Grand

first, time in years. Albert c.
Simonson. Fifteen years ago
Silnonson was a serious rival of
Fine and ReShevSky. The sex

the arrival of Larry Evans, who
entered the final round leading
Fine by half point. But Evans
was held to his second draw by
Edward Lasker, while Fine got a

The match at Moscow for the
worlds chess championship be-
tween Mikhail Botvinnik and the
challenger, David Bronstein, got
of to a slow start, but has now
reached a very interesting stage.
The first four games were draws,
with the champion struggling to
maintain equality most of the
time-as might be expected when
he has had no tournament prac-
tice for nearly three years. Things
took a livelier turn when Bron-
stein won the fifth game. fine

Botvinnik won the sixth, a
longer and harder affair, and he
also scored the seventh when
Bronstein made an outright blum

have drawn. The eight was a fifth
draw. but Botvinnik had all the

lures in this category are usually
known as stock shots. A picture
Of an historic building or monu-
ment would fall in this classifica-
ton. Many free lance photogra-
pliers receive most Of their income
from stock shots because they are
Ia lot easier to come by than those
Of the unusual or spot news pic
lures. Free lancers often specialize
in stock shots, travelling around
the country taking pictures OF
scenes and buildings, ETC., that are
frequently in the news. An editor
would much prefer to buy one OF
these photographs than spend
many times the cost by sending q
staff Of cameraman out on a spe-
cial assignment that might take
hours or days. A collection Of
these stock shots can keep a steady
income rolling in while you are out
looking for the big pictures that
will make a name for you.
While natural, imposed picture.
are often the best, there will be
occasions when you will have tt
resort to using a model to fulfil
an assignment. Great care should
be taken in the selection Of g
model and in the costume that he
or she. wears for the picture. Il
you are after a shot Of a char
woman scrubbing a floor you GER
Itainly would not pick out a beau
tiful Powers model dressed in the
mode of fashion. So pick your
models carefully, keeping in mino
the parts that they are to portray
Also tell them what to wear; never
leave it up to the model to decide
on costume.
When making a posed shot al
ways try to make it appear al
though 1t were not posed at all
Never let your model look into the
camera except for some specific
reason. Also, when using q mode
for a picture to be used for ad-
|vertising purposes be sure to OBJ
tain a model release that relieves
you from responsibility from in
vasion of privacy rights. Any pic

No picture should ever be sold that

happen you would be subject tt

release might not do you any gooc

proved that the model knew the

fashion.

because o whisky bottle or other
item Objectionable to some people
lis included in the shot. Also
make sure that nothing is in
cluded in the picture that could
be construed as advertising mat
ter such as labeled boxes or bot
ties. magazines or newspapers
with the names showing or SIM
liar material. Editors are ex-
tremely averse to giving free ad-
vertising and usually reject such
shots automatically.
Don't send in two or more pic
lures when one will tell the story.
You can't fool an editor with this
dodge and you will save money
by holding the number of shots
per story to the minimum.
Be sure that every picture you
send out for sale has complete in
formation in the form Of a cap
ton that is pasted to the bottom
back side of the print and folded
out so that it can be read while
the picture is being referred to.
Make the captions clear; let them
tell the who. what. when, where,
why or how of the story with
plenty of detail. It's much better
to give too much information than
not enough. Your caption ma
terial can always be edited with
Ia few strokes of pencil, but if
the whole story is not there, moth
ing can be done about it.
When shipping pictures place
them between two sheets of stiff
cardboard to prevent crushing and
cracking in the mails. Be sure
they are addressed to the right

Plans have been completed
to remove the headquarters of

President Gordon M, Skeoch
mentioned the proposed
change to the employees in his
first talk with them, explain
ing that he thought it a better
policy to let them know Of the
plans first, rather than having
them hear of it after.
He explained the concentra-
ton of work has changed
within the past few years es-
peciaIly with the closing down
of the distillery. Eventually
all personnel will be concen-
trated at Bethlehem, but con-
tact with Bethlehem being so
difficult and at times a prob
lem, with headquarters at
Golden Grove it is only about
3 minutes away.
The President explained
further that he has his own
home and has no desire to use
the Golden Grove building, Of
fetal residence. This building
is very large and upkeep
would exceed the rental; to
down such a building would
cause it to deteriorate quickly,
