his camera and better pictures
win result.
The aperture or opening which
controls the amount Of light which
passes through the lens during an
exposure, in some box cameras. is
capable Of variation. In others it
is dxed. The latter type Of aper-
ture is usually found with box
cameras that have fixed shutters
and lens speeds. While a definite
limitation, this factor can also
contribute to good picture taking
because the beginner Is held even
more rigidly to given conditions
With q basic camera the only
variable factor is the film. which
may be either slow or. fast. The
faster Aim is used on cloudy days
and under poor lighting conditions
and the slower Aim is for use when
the scene is ideally lighted.
Practically all box cameras have
the time and bulb settings. These
are indicated on the camera by ]
and B markings. The T setting Is
for time exposures when 1t is de-
|sirable to make an exposure fol
more than a few seconds. In op-
Grafton the indicator Is moved tc
the T. When the shutter release
is operated the shutter will ther
remain open until it is released by
a second touch Of the control
With the B setting the shutter re-
mains open only as long as pres
sure is maintained on the control
lever. This setting is used only
for exposures Of q few seconds.

Cocgsf SacrA tJGIices ExElci,5 Ycsi Sc cs;ss-ify Ard Explosives Kegs

It. Henry Sherry, USCG, was asked by League of Alaskan Cities officials to explain the Port Security Card program and handling of explosives regula- tons. After a brief resume of each program he was dClugcd with questions on explosives, which subject seemed to be up pcrmOSt in the minds of coastal tOWnSpCCplc.
 The Port Security Card plan is being set up in the ports of Ketcnikan, Juneau and Seward. Which other ports may be af- fectcd later, he could not say, It. Sherry explained.
 Several port cities have not complied with the request of the 17tn Coast Guard District in formuIlt.Hg ordinances or reso- Iutlons controlling the move ment of explosives in or through the town, Sherry stated.
 Seward has complied with this regulation. and the load limit of 10O tons per shipment is now al- lowed into the port of Seward. Sherry was questioned as to the amount to be allowed into the new dock across the bay, and if there would ever De any danger 10 the town rom al eNplosfon in tlat area. His reply was that aC- cold.ng to the table oI distances, which formerly controlled the load I;mIl on explosives, Seward could never be endangered from an explosion at so great q dis tance across the water.
 The handling Of explosives after it is placed upon the dock, and transporting through towns, is not the concern of the Coast Guard, he explained, but can be controlled by the Territorial De partment of Labor safety codes.

On that date, Interior Secretary Chap man and many others from Washington will be in Anchor age to unVeil a monument to the railroad and it's progress. He urged that everybody in Seward who possibly can, attend that celebration, meet the govern ment officials, attempt to per suade them to make visit to Seward and present Stewards problem along with the rail roads problem. A special train will be available if enough peo- pie indicate their intention to go. Secretary Chapman is making his first visit to the Territory at this time.

Stranded Hunters Rescued By Loco Men

Two goat hunters, Ben Sud dath and Ray Cabana, both local men, were rescued Monday after three days and nights on the shore of Resurrection Bay.
 Suddath and Cabana went ashore in a dory from Suddath $ larger boat Friday night In heavy seas their dory overturned and they were washed ashore at False Point, north of Day liar Dor, onto a rocky beach entirely surrounded by high cliffs.
 Unable to get them off, the men who were left on the boat returned to town for help. For three days and nights, or until Monday afternoon, all efforts were unavailing to give them aid, or to get them. Tenth Rescue planes were not available be- cause of weather, Oral Burch, in his boat Billy IT., with Don Kessler, Harry Hart, Alfred Ca bana, brother of Ray Cabana, and radio man Al Weber, man. aged to get food and dry cloth ing to the men Sunday night by means of Lyle gun, borrowed from the freighter Pacificus, then at the Seward dock.
 These supplies were loaded on a rubber raft, line shot ashore, and the two men pulled the raft in.
 The two men were finally res cued by means of ropes let down the cliff and then making their way to a more accessible landing spot.
 MT. Burch nearly lost his life when attempting to go ashore in a dOry, which also overturned and he was swept under by seV- eral big waves before he could get back to the boat. The whole episode was another epic of the sea and the heroic efforts of Seward toWnsmen on behalf of their friends.
 Resurrection Bay is treacher- ouS, and even the best of seamen have been lost on it's waters. Suddath is as familiar with the Bay and it's cruelty as anyone, but it nearly took his life and that of Oral Burch. Authorities warn strangers to beware of it's dangers.
