prehension Of the romantic
school. too.
In his excellent jacket
notes, Henry w. Simon does
much to dispel the tough-to-
isten-to myth Of the later
Beethoven quartets:
Despite the often simple
and folklike quality Of some
Of the musical materials. the
five last quartets at first
strike most hearers as tnco-
herent and mystic. With
study and familiarity the
indifference slowly vanishes,
but the mystic quality never
does. And Of the five it is
opus 131 that presents the
strangest and most mystical
Of Beethoven's many worlds"
The Juilliarders shape the
many moods and marvellous
materials Of opus 131 with
highest artistry. When you
hear it, you will want to be
among the first to welcome
them to Coolidge Auditorium.

Contributing Writer

So many books have been
written on aspects Of photo
graphy that we usually draw
back from touting any par
ticular one. This is mainly
because there is usually some
thing wanting where special
subjects are considered or be-
cause there is an attempt to
cover too much ground with
an obvious general neglect Of
many Of the subjects covered.
But, at last, we are glad to
recommend volume by Russ
Kinne called 1.-THE Complete
Book Of Nature Photogra-
ply"
The book is direct, to the
point, covers all the ground
that any nature photogra-
pher could ask for, and does
all this in readable and
easily understood way.
Even If you are an expert
enced camera naturalist you
will want this book in your
photo library. because the ex-
periences Of the writer may
differ in many interesting
ways from your approach and
you may find a solution to
problems that have beset you
in the past when photograph
ing the wonders of nature.
Rewarding Field
AS for the amateur who
has had little or no interest
In nature photography and
the beginner in photography,
we predict they too will find
a wealth Of fascinating in
formation that will undoubt-

edly lead them into a field
Of photography that is great
~ rewarding in many ways.
AS the author says in the
preface, This is not a pri-
mer for novices." He assumes
that the reader will have
some knowledge of photogra-
ply. And, generally speaking,
the book is not for those
who are irrevocably COM
mitted to box cameras and
the like, for nature photog-
raphy does require equip
ment, though not necessarily
expensive, that is adaptable
to fast shooting and is able
to cope with less than the
best lighting.
Getting right down to bust
ness. Mr.. Kline, from his
wealth Of experience. rec
ommends a reflex camera,
either twin or single lens, al
though his preference. is for
the one-lens type. His rea-
soning here is excellent for
he points out that with the
reflex camera you can see
the image exactly as it will
appear on film and be able
to observe the effects Of fill
tiers. This, Of course, con-
tributes not only to better
compositions than will us
ually be obtained with finder
type cameras but to image
sharpness as we'll. Aside from
a discussion Of the pros and
cons of various cameras he
makes his own recommends
tions as to how best to use
them, singly and in combin-
alton, going even so far as
to suggest how two identical
cameras can be mounted to-
gether, one with monochrome
film and the other with COL
or, to shoot in synchroniza-
ton.
Care Of Equipment
In the next two chapters
he discusses additional equip
ment and how to care for it.
His able comments on vari-
GUS types Of bulb, flash and
portable electronic flash
units should be of interest
to any photographer who is
even casually interested in
high-speed work.
Then, becoming specific on
several subjects, the author
describes in detail how to
make pictures of plants and
flowers, birds, mammals, rep
tiles and amphibians, and in
SectS. There are also chap
tiers on picture making in
ZOOS and aquariums, under
water and marine photogra-
ply, and photographing
rocks, gems and minerals.
The book is profusely il
Illustrated with excellent ex-
amples of the authors own
camera work.
It is published by A. s.
Barnes & Co., Inc, and con-
tains an introduction by
Roger Tory Peterson, noted
ornithologist, lecturer and
author.
We consider Mr.. Kinne's
book as a very readable as
well as noteworthy contribu-
ton to the literature of pho

ed SO additional acres for plant

The law permits growers to
lease up to a total of five acres

fluecured covers acquired All
acres. There were Sc allotnentS
acquired under the program.
A considerable portion of the
leased acreage would not have

it involved small allotments, or
farms where older proprietors
have given up the rigors of to-
bacco production.
