Corsair Fighter r-Bombers
Being Built for French

The Navy Department an

|of Navy Corsair fighter bomber
planes are being built for the
French government under the Mu-
tual Defense Assistance program.
The number to be built for the

commitment was withheld by the
Navy.
This is the only propeller-driven
fighter-bomber still being manu-
featured in this country, the Navy
said. Current models, it was dis
closed, are the elimination of a
basic design first laid down more
Than twelve years ago, but they are
also said to incorporate "thou-
ands of adaptations" for modern
military requirements.

death.
Heavily armed forest rangers,
afoot and on horseback, had
sought the shaggy, half-tame fe-
male bear since Thursday when
its presence in Cantigny Woods
southwest of Chicago became
known.
The critters capture came
shortly before dusk when two
hounds succeeded in trailing it to
Its lair. Two rangers shared a
moose about the bears neck and
tied it to a tree.
They said the bear strangled in
Its frantic struggles while they
tried to put net over it so they
could put the animal in a cage.
Rangers who saw the bear for
the first time today described it
as about as big as a st. Bernard
dog, and just about as friendly"

Photography by Eliot Porter of
Santa Fe, N. Mex, sponsored by
the Audubon Society of the Dis
trict of Columbia, is being ex-
hibited in the foyer of the Natural
History Building of the Smith
sonian Institution during May.
Mr.. Porter has specialized in the
photography of birds and other
nature subjects, twice receiving a
Guggenheim fellowship, working
first in Arizona and Illinois and
later in the Rio Grande Delta area
and in Michigan. His pictures have
been reproduced in Life Magazine
as well as in nature and photo
graphic magazines and have been
exhibited widely.
He makes several suggestions
concerning Photographic stand
ards. He says, "The bird must not
be out of focus or blurred in mo-
ton; its Identification must be pos
sible If it can be recognized in
black and white; all other essential
parts of the picture must be in
focus and recognizable, and. finally.
pictorial standards of composition
and execution must have been
maintained"

Sleek Pirogues
Next Sunday

LAFTTTE. La.-One Of Amer

be held here next Sunday.
Residents Of the "cajun country
are polishing their slim craft to a
satin finish as the time draws near
for the 18th annual running of
the world championship Pirogue
Race.
The race. which annually draws
so to rs contestants and as many
as $4,000 spectators, is held on
Bayou Barataria at the little town
OF Laf1tte, rs miles south of New
Orleans, on Louisiana Highway 80.
The Acadian pirogue, a shallow
version of the Indian canoe, has
formed a vital means of transpor-
tation on the often narrow and
twisting waterways Of Southern
Louisiana for close to two CEN
turies.
While the usual pirogue is about
Is feet long and several feet wide,
the racing pirogue is a needle-thin
craft with a beam of Is inches
and a length Of about % feet. It
is hewn from a solid block of
cypress by hand. and smoothed
and polished to slip over the sur
face Of the water at a speed about
twice as fast as a man walks.
The record for the 4.7-mile
course is approximately 80 min
utes. First formally held in 1886,
and discontinued only during the
war years, the race offers a hand
some trophy and about $400 In
