coming applications.
AIM Tactics HIT
Mr.. Brown commended that
the AIM-controlled County
Board has impeded school
progress in Arlington, and he
again blasted AIM for backing
the Moncure Bill which took
away Arlington's elected school
board. He said that q business
approach to the problems Of
the county government is bet
ter than q political approach.
Mr.. Magruder maintained
that competence In government
Is more important than plat
form promises. and he said ex-
perience is better than inexpre-
rience. He again attacked Mr..
Brown for residing in the same
precinct as two present board
members.
Both Of the candidates said
they deplore spot coming. Mr..
Brown said AIM has granted
rezoning from residential to
commercial in residential areas
TO prominent AIM supporters.
And he attacked strip coming.
Mr.. Magruder called for fair
ness In rezoning matters. He
said the rights Of the home
owners must be protected. but
development Of the few remain
ing commercial areas must be
encouraged. MIXING politics
and rezoning never is In the
best interest Of the county, he
said.

NUMISMATIC NOTES
U. S. HuIf-Dimes: II

Beginning in 1889 the half
dime was struck in New Or
leans and from 1863 at the
San Francisco Mint.
Although it was discon-
tihued IS years ago. the half
dime still does not command
much premium unless in
mint or proof condition. OF
the dates after 1929, the 1886
and the. 1850 without ar
rows are much sought after.
Along with the 2-cent and
the Scent silver, the half
dime was discontinued in
1873. because these denomi-
nations had proved to be un-
popular with the public.
From 1929 to 1887, the OBJ
verse design changes to the
"Coronet" type, the bust fac
ing left again. The reverse
bears an eagle with wings
down and the denomination
IS c."
During 1887, a second de-
sign was issued, the new
Liberty Seated" without
diverse stars and no drapery
from the elbow. The eagle
disappears from the reverse,
and is replaced by a wreath
circling the Half Dime" In
1888, the stars are returned
to surround Liberty. In 1910.

been moistened with the
preparation. One word of
? warning-when cleaning a
film that has a magnetic
sound stripe be sure to test
a discarded piece of the film
to make sure that the solvent
of the cleaner will not dis
solve the binder of the mag
netic stripe. Should the
stripe soften or smear. the
use of another type of clean
er is, of course, indicated.
Careful in Splicing
We cannot too strongly
stress the Importance of
making a proper weld" when
splicing together sections of
films. Poor splicing can cause
all sorts of trouble both with
the film and the protector.
The film is made up of
three layers: The film base;
the coating of emulsion that
contains the silver or dye
image, and a thin layer of
binder that holds together
the other two.
When making a splice it is
important to go about it the
right way. The base side Of
one film section cannot be
bonded to the emulsion of
another. Moistening with
water will soften the emul-
sion and binder for easy re-
moval.
Then, before attempting to
continue, allow both sections
to dry. After application Of
the cement the pieces being
spliced should be allowed to
remain in the splicer long
enough to insure a proper
coupling of the two film ends.
This takes from 10 to 20 Sec
onds with most splicing de-
vices. If a splice does not
hold it is probable that the
film ends at the splice were
not fully freed Of all emul-
sion or binder layers.
