for q score Of 900 points.
In the closed room. the

the South hand with two

to Lazard with the almost
worthless North hand.
Lazard jumped to four
hearts! Strangely enough.
this audacious contract was
not doubled. Each opponent
assumed that Lazard had
most Of the missing strength.
Fry went down three tricks,
for a loss Of only $50 points.
On balance. therefore, the
United States team picked
UP $50 points. They had won
600 points in one room and
had lost only $50 points in

Contributing Writer

The trend toward automa-
ton in photography contin-
ues with the development Of
a fully automatic inter-
changeable lens for color
photography. The new lens,
a product Of Elgeet Of
Rochester. approximates the
response to light Of the hui
man eye.
Called the Synchronex-8,
the lens, like the human eye.
is activated entirely by light
stopping down its iris auto
matically to compensate for
changes in sunlight and
shade. This feature is found
in some of the new auto
matte cameras. as a built-in
feature of the camera rather
than Of the lens.
The new Elgeet lens. how
ever. can be used with any
8-mm. camera in which a
present normal lens is inter-
changeable. The obvious adj
vantage is that many stand
ard type cameras can be
brought up to date simply by
adding the automatic lens.
The Synchronex may be
set for use with color films
in the range from ASA 10 to
Is. Provision for manual set
tings extend its versatility for
special Photographic appli-
cations, as when the camera
shutter is reset from nor
NAL operation to such appli-
cations to stop motion. slow
motion and high speed eff
fectS.
The outward design OF the
lens features the honeycomb
grid of the photo-electric eye
in which the lens itself has
been located. All of the
electric energy generated on
the selenium cell is directed
into the body Of the lens to
the movable blades of the iris
In a sealed unit.
The selenium cell provides
energy without the assistance
of batteries or recharging.
depending entirely upon the
sunlight or artificial light
falling upon its surface to
create disable energy.
