(AP).-Lost your appendix?
The time may come when
you'll wish you had it back, re-
search at the California Insti-
tute Of Technology indicated
today.
The appendix, long con-
sidered a useless organ, may
play an important role in the
body's defense against infec-
tions, said ImmunologiSt Dieter
SusSdorf.
1t may also help protect these
body defenses from damage by
radiation such as x-rays or the
rays given of in a nuclear ex-
ploSion.
Helps Fight Disease
DR.. Sussdorf said the ap-
pendix has been found to be
rich in lymphoid cells that are
capable of producing disease
fighting antibodies.
Paralysis of the body's mech
anism for making antibodies is
a major cause of radiation
deaths. With no antibodies to
stop thtem, ever-present germs
can invade the body uncon-
trolled and the victim dies OF
infection.

This article will tell you
how you can make photos
directly off your TV screen.
The conventions are quicken
ing interest in this type Of
photography. 1t is easier
than you might have imagin-
ed. Photographing TV
images will take a bit more
time and effort than snap
shots you normally make on
the run, but the results are
well worth the additional
effort.
You will need no special
equipment-only your cam
era and film plus a tripod
for the camera. There are,
however, a few conditions
that must be met to achieve
the best results.
Before shooting directly at
a TV screen, it is most i'm
portant to check room condi-
tions. At night, put out all
lights that might be reflected
on the screen. In daylight,
you may have to move your
set around to avoid harsh re-
Elections from windows, Vene-
tian blinds, mirrors, pictures,
etc. Equally important, watch
out for your own reflection
on the screen, especially If
you are wearing white or
light colors.
Clear Image Needed
Make sure your TV set is
in good working condition
and that the screen image is
sharp and clear. Remember,
if the TV picture is fuzzy
your picture will be too.
A tripod is a must for this
type of shooting. Set the
tripod close enough to allow
the TV screen almost to cover
the entire area of the mega
tive. Your camera will be ap-
proximately AZ to 6 feet
from the set and should be
directly centered. Use a
sturdy tripod and make GER
tain that the camera is dead
still before making any shot.
For sharpness and crispness
Of result, try focusing on
lettering during a commercial
This will be easier on your
Evening star., 1960-07-17
Protect Film

Extremes of temperature and
humidity won't be a menace to
your film while it's still in its
air-tight package. Once your
camera is loaded, however, keep
it away from hot spots
radiators, truck and glove COM
partments and back window
ledge of your car.

NUMISMATIC
NOTES
Wartime Cents

During World War II. cop
per was in short supply. Since
silver coins required a cop
per content of only 10 per
cent and the scent pieces 56
per cent, conservation in
coinage centered on the l.
cent pieces which were 95 per
cent copper.
The result was the steel
cents in I943, the entire OUT
put of slightly more than I
billion pieces being zinc
coated steel. These coins were
very brilliant in new condi-
ton but tended to discolor
in use.
In 1914 and 1945 cents
were made from Salvaged
shell cases, the shell case"
coins being highly satisfac-
tory. Many remain in circu-
lation and go unnoticed all
though they are a trifle yell
lower than the regular
bronze or so-called copper
cents which again were re-
sumed in 1916.
Many of the blanks for the
steel cents not required dur
ing the one year of produc-
tion in 1943 were put to good
use in 1914. These were
coined into 2 franc pieces for
newly liberated Belgium.
The 1943 steel cents are
rapidly disappearing from
circulation. The Treasury
Department has retired some

Exposure Directions

Now for exposure. With,
for example, Super-Pan type
B use 1/25th of a second at
I 4. For faster film, such as
Tri-X shoot at 1/3Oth second
at ( 4 or t Sc.
For best results make your
exposures between 1/20th and
1i30th second only. If you
shoot slower than 1920, the
action will not be completely
stopped. If faster than 1880,
you will lose a portion Of the
picture because of the elec-
tronic scanning problems.
II you are one of those who
does his own developing, leave
the film in two minutes longer
than the usual developing
time. If you have your film
processed by a photofinisher
ask for two minutes greater
development.
Shooting from a TV screen
is fun whether you cover a
convention or simply take
snapshots of a favorite pro-
gram. Give it a try and we
feel sure you'll be happy with
the results.

Recently, wild claims have
been made about the discov-

copper composition. The
truth is that no copper cents
were issued in 1943, only the
steel variety. Copper" 1943
cents usually are merely cop
