Too, he is overlooking an oppor-tunity to amass a great deal of practical knowledge which should stand him in good stead when he picks up rod or gun for the real thing. The particularly important part is that the camera enthusiast who seeks some of his sport snapping wildlife in his hunting or fishing area doesn't have to be a profes-sional with a thousand dollars worth of equipment. It is true, of course, just as with fishing and hunting, that the pride in ownership and use of the best possible equipment is always an added and most enjoy-able part of either sport. But it should be emphasized again that the best equipment that can be had Is not absolutely necessary to en-joyment of one's favorite field sport. It is a generally-hel- d belief among many sportsmen and other camera addicts that the more expensive the camera, the better the result is sure to be. Nothing could be farther from the truth, because in This honor-awar- d photograph "Hunter Shooting Pheasant" submitted by Harry Lance, Jr., of Philadelphia in the class of the Graflex photo contest, shows something of the thrilling moments afield In store for the sportsman-photograph- er and one doesn't have to be a professional lens-ma- n, cither. the last analysis a great deal de-pends on the man behind the lens. In fact manv amateurs are often surprised to discover that they can get just as poor results with an ex-pensive camera as they can with the cheaper ones. ' To trot out a fundamental, it is always necessary to stay within the shooting limits of the camera, just as one should keep within the shooting limits of his gun. For good outdoor photography, and this includes filming wildlife, since it's going to be found out-doors, the first accessory should be a good filter. Photographing the blacks and whites of outdoor scenes is always improved with the use of yellow, red or green filter. The green filter does wonders for land-scapes, brightening green foilage, which otherwise would be recorded In blobs of darker shade. The yel-low filter will darken blue skies, touching up the puffy cloud effects which are ofttimes so dramatic. With less expensive cameras, one must guess rather accurately at distances, or come up with fuzzy, shots. The best way, of course, is to measure any questionable distance. If you don't care to invest in a range finder, this can be compen-sated for bv use of a leneth of string, knotted at intervals of cne foot. By placing the camera on some sort of firm support, one can walk to the subject being photographed and count the knots as they slip through the fingers. A lens shade will repay its pur-chaser many times over in the re-sultant clear shots unspoiled by sun glare. If the weatherman still has you immobilized, get out the camera and see what you can turn up as you roam your favorite game cover or stream bank. The things you encounter will fascinate you, and as you watch nature's folks in action, you'll learn a lot more about their habits. AAA Don't stand up or ualk around in a boat. Hold on to the gunwale and mote about in a crouched position. AAA Eagles Predators? In Rocky Mountain states there has been some concern over the eagles' effect on mountain sheep and goats. A recent bulletin. "Wyo-ming Hawks," published by the Wyoming game and fish depart-ment, devoted several pages to the food habits of the golden eagle. The conclusions of '.he authors were: "Golden eagles do not play important roles in the preserva-tion of the bighorn and other game mammals." r7iornE Town m??-- . h. IN WASHINGTON South Loyal RALEIGH, N. C. - With a thin prinkling of delegates here from the 14 southern and border states. ith the exception of Louisiana, at :he recent southern regional Demo-rruti- c conference, an old saying Mimmon to the prohibition era and which Is true even today in some touthern states came to mind: 'They vote dry and drink wet." And so, applying this sentiment ,o the southern regional conference. Democrats in the South generally vill vote for Harry Truman and irink civil rights. In other words .hey are almost unanimous against .he civil rights program, but they're itill going to vote Democratic. So :hcre was no disunity here. Fact is, :ivil rights wasn't mentioned. Neither was the word "Dixic-rrat- s" mentioned. But there were several pointed remarks directed at the Dlxlerrats and their bolt of the Democratic na-tional convention at Philadel-phia. For Instance, Gov. Sidney McMath, of Arkansas, In com-plimenting the frank discussion of civil rights and other contro-versial subjects by the Young Democratic convention at Chat-tanooga, said: "But when the vote was cast, lone of them picked up and went .iome. That Is an example which are in the Democratic party can well follow." With agriculture as the main lource of income in most of the louthern states, highlight of the inference was an address by Sec-retary of Agriculture Charles Bran-aan- . And the concensus of opinion imong the press corps, which by the way, slightly outnumbered dele-gates, was that if any one thinks the Brannan plan is a dead duck, they're wrong. For instance, Gov. Kerr Scott of Vorth Carolina, himself a farmer, and for many years director of the itate agricultural commission, pre-dicted that the Brannan plan would gain "more and more support." and declared he would like to see it given a fair trial. He declared it would eliminate the question of surpluses by throw-ing all these products onto the open market which would permit con-sumers to buy cheaper farm pro-ducts than under any of the other farm programs. Examples Given Secretary Brannan, in pumping tor his own program, gave a very iimple and arithmetical example jf how the tremendous egg surplus :ould be eliminated If the people :ould afford to buy eggs at reason-U- e prices. Any one with paper and pencil can figure it out. Over a period of three years the government has acquired 68 million pounds of dried eggs stored in a Kansas cave. It takes three pounds )f shell eggs to make a pound of dried eggs. So 68 million pounds times 3 dozen, times 12 eggs, equals above 2.5 billion eggs, divided by 150 million people equals 16.3 eggs per capita, or as Serre-tar- y Brannan said, "if the per capita consumption of eggs was Increased six eggs per year it would wipe out all the surplus In eggs." But with retail price of eggs at 50 to 75 cents a dozen consumption is going down instead of up. The government, by the way, paid 32 to 40 cents a dozen for those dried eggs, or 96 to $1.20 a pound. Potato Surplus Following on the heels of the Raleigh conference comes the an-nouncement that the government aas 50 million bushels of potatoes to dispose of in spite of the fact that acreage was curtailed some 20 per cent. But when farmers will increase fertilizer and plant rows closer together to overcome the ac-reage reduction, they raise just as many potatoes, thus upping the sur-plus. And despite the fact that southern (armers voted 10 to 1 for cotton acreage reduction and state and county committees had complete charge of alloting the acreage re-ductions, some few large cotton op-erators and disgruntled smaller ones raised such a howl the house passed a bill to add up to 2 million acres to this year's cotton crop and an unspecified number to the pea-nut crop. All in spite of the fact that there is a huge surplus in peanuts and the government already has 3.75 milliun bales of cotton on hand. Brannan Pian Passage? What the observers here say is happening is that the inequities and tremendous costs of the present price support program, the huge surpluses in foodstuffs and fibers, high retail costs of farm commodi-ties and the action of some farmers in circumventing the aveiage con-trols in the present law, all are pointing up to eventual passage of the Brannan bill, which is intended to eliminate surpluscV, eliminate purchase by government, and let prices be set by supply and demand. A 3 Meat H Loaf By Richard Hill Wilkinson QHERIFF FELIX BRENDLING-- 5 ER was just about to sit down to his supper when the telephone rang. He looked at the instrument ruefully. Before him was a heap-ing plate of meat loaf, fried pota-toes and fresh green peas. Felix sighed, glanced across at Elvira, then moved to the wall phone. "Hello," he said. "This is Chris Verne out at the Rowland camp." I came low and excited voice. -- Minute 3 Flctl0n b"Srookmeneonei'nsto juthset ' front room. I'm hidine in the library, but I may need help." It was five miles to the Rowland camp by way of the river road. Felix made it in eight minutes, despite the ancient vintage of his rattley car. Chris Verne came down the steps to meet him. "Too late. Sheriff. He got away. We had quite a tussle, but he whac ked me on the mel-on and I was out like a light for three or four minutes." The tall, rangy caretaker gingerly felt of a bump on his head. "Get away with anything?" Felix asked. "Don't know yet. I was looking when you drove up. Come on In and we'll see." The caretaker went directly to the safe behind the fireplace. "Hell!" he ejaculated. "Well. I can kiss this job goodbye. Rowland will never keep me on when he finds out those bonds are gone." "Bonds?" "He was up here over the week-end. He had a lot of negotiable bonds and left them in the safe. Figured this would be the last place anyone would look. Well, he figured wrong." "Did you get a look at the thief?" "Not much of one. It was dark. I was in the kitchen getting myself some supper, when I heard a noise in front. I switched on the light and listened. It sounded like some-one was trying to pick the front door lock. Thinking of the bonds, I sneaked into the library. It was inky dark. I hastily dialed you, then went groping for the rifle Rowland keeps behind the safe. It was right then something hit me on the head. mtjUMM," Felix stood in the center of the floor and looked around the room. The dial telephone was on the desk, with the receiver dangling on its cord. "Chris, mind callin' Elvira an' telling her I'll be home shortly an' to keep my supper hot? I left it in a hurry. Meantime I'll take a look around here." Chris shot a quick, sharp look at the officer, but Felix had already begun to browse around. So the caretaker crossed to the desk, picked up the receiver and began to dial. He had whirled out two Chris shot a quick, sharp look at the officer, but Felix already had begun to browse around. numbers, when suddenly the lights went out. "Hey!" Chris yelled, startled. "Who did that?" "Keep right on dialing, Chris," Felix said from the doorway. "Fuse musta blown." "Don't be dumb. I can't dial in the dark." "Try it," Felix insisted. "Are you crazy? I can't see a thing." "Good!" said Felix. He snapped on the lights. In his hand he held the old time long barrelled that had served him during his many years as law officer. "All right Chris, nemmine dialing any more." "Say, what is this?" The care-taker replaced the receiver on its hook slowly. "We'll talk about it later, Chris, an' look around for the bonds. Iri the meantime, you come with me. You can spend the night in the lock-up an', by jinks, without no supper too. That's what you git for makin' me let mine go cold." Chris blinked. "What the devil are you talking about?" "Come, come, Chris. Plav actin' ain't gonna do you any good. I got a hunch it was you stole them oonds. and busted the lock on the front door, too. At any rate, you d.ant hastily d.al my number in Uie dark, like you said. You just settled your own hash by proving 't cant be done. An' speakin' of fash, come along.

TOOTZtf PCWT McKewon & R '. ' in InBrW WW M am MEET THE MET! FAMOUS Metropolitan Opera THE a new head man, Rudolf Bing, and he has opened his ad-ministration with a bang. He is for a complete change of policy, and this doesn't mean merely hav-ing a woman instead of a man stand upside down in the lobby. Mr. Bingo (beg pardon, th "O" Is our mistake) has moved in and taken aver with Wagnerian sound effects. There haven't been so many reper-cussions since the time the com-mercial broadcasters took over Grand Central terminal. The Barnum and Bailey circus has often come in more quietly. He announced he had signed Kirsten Flagstad, invited Walter Winchell to shoot at him instead of the lady, ignored an ultimatum from Lauritz Melchior, changed the ticket system and adopted a longer season. This treatment of Melchior shook radio and television to its depths. Nothing softened the blow except the lack of an an-nouncement that he would use Milton Berle in Lohengrin. 00 Mr. Blng says he Is de-termined to bring grand opera within the reach cf more people in the lower Income groups. He thinks people who come to the Met for the musle Instead of the press notices, photographic rodeo and a possible try-o- at for place on the Arthur Godfrey program should be encouraged. Opening night, for example, will not be entirely limited to sub-scribers. You can get in without being registered as an amateur acrobat or female pipe smoker. We had the following imaginary interview with Rudolf: Q. Mr. Bing, you are aware, are you not, that Flagstad returned to Norway and was there under the Nazi occupation? A. An artist is an artist, and it is the voice that counts not her politics. Besides, look at the ad-vertising the adverse comment will get us. It may bring us people who hitherto never thought of sleeping by subscription. Q. What about Melchior? Didn't you admire his singing? A. Yes, but I wished he would either concentrate on it in grand opera or make his radio authors turn out better scripts. Q. Have you seen Traubcl? A (singing). Nobody knows the Traubcl I've seen. Q Have you had any sugges-tions from Billy Rose? A. No, but I expect to as soon as he settles the problem of wheth-er to keep "The Great Jewel Rob-bery" in New York or take it on the road. Q. What do you think of the suggestion grand opera should be sung in languages all the customers can understand? A. The day may come when it will be done in language even all the opera singers can understand. Q. Are you satisfied with the costumes and scenery? A. There is some question whether new sets and wardrobes are not needed for the intermission vaudeville shows. Q. In Wagnerian opera do you favor putting the armor on over the head, or feet first? A. I have trouble enough with-out taking that up my first season. Q. Have you any particular novelty in mind for the coming opera season? A. I am thinking of putting on "South Pacific" instead of Der Rosenkavalier. Q. Could that be done? A. Possibly, but it would violate an oia Met custom of not making big money. Q Have you ever thought of keeping all grand opera singers quiet, distributing free beer, and letting the customers do the' sing-ing? A.

It was a dream that turned into a nightmare and Casey doesn't care to talk about it. It seems that In this dream the eminent C. Stengel saw his team up St. Petersburg and New York this season." That Mark When the rather young Ralph Kiner moved Into the 50 or better home run bracket for the second time, there were increasing mur-murs about the possibility of some p go through the sea-- l slugger passing the Babe's old son without a i single blemish. No I injury or accident ' or illness assailed i any of his sturdy athletes. Joe heel lost its Achillean vul-nerability and Joe foueht for the Ralph Is 6 feet, 1 Inch and he weighs 198 pounds. He has a pair of powerful hands and a pair of exceedingly strong wrists. This is where most of hitting power comes from when correctly applied. "I might do it or someone else might do it," Ralph said. "But I don't think so. I was meeting the ball well last season. In the last 30 games I hit 20 home suns. That's a lot of home runs to hit in 30 games. I probably wouldn't do that well again in a lifetime. I mean in my last 30 games where the tension begins to build up. I sud-denly discovered that to beat 60 home runs you've got to get a good start and keep on hitting 'em. You can't afford any bad months. You can't blow yourself to any slumps. Sixty home runs a year is a home run about every 2Vi games. I hit better than one every three games last year, but that wasn't good enough." Grantland Rice Yankees in 154 games. No replacements were needed to help reinforce outfield or infield. But, at the end of the dream, the Yankees didn't win the pennant. The Red Sox did, haunted by the Cleveland Indians. Why? Mr. Stengel doesn't care to talk too much about it. But this is what happened 1. Jerry Coleman, a brilliant rookie last season, had the same "sophomore shingles" that at-tacked Alvin Dark and a flock of other freshmen. The second sea-son Is always the toughest. The sam disease struck the other 1949 rookies. 2. Phil Rizzuto, the star of the 1949 group, dipped a trifle from his lofty peak. 3. The pitching staff wasn't quite as good as It was last year when Reynolds, Vic Raschi, Lopat and Tommy Byrne, who all had big years, spent part of their time on the soapy chute. They were good but not as good as they had been. 4. Minus so many accidents, in-juries, etc., the Yankees no longer had any fight against fate. They lost part of their 1949 hustle. 5. Prof. Stengel suddenly dis-covered that Red Sox pitching was far better than it was last season with Parnell, Kinder and McDer-mot- t out on the happy highway. 6. The pennant-savin- g Joe Page was good but not the Page of 1949. Joe has been great every other year 1945, 1947. 1949. This was 1950. This was the dream. C. Stengel, the potentate, failed to enjoy the next day. "Do dreams come true?" Casey asked. "If they do I may decide to stay out here and pass Since Johnny Mize was dropped as a regular, there don't seem to be any big home run hitters in sight, except Kiner. Ted Williams is usually somewhere in the high 30's or the 40's. One trouble with Ted is that he won't swing at a ball an inch or two inches off the plate. He doesn't say to himself "I'm going to belt this next one if it's close." If it's an inch off it's a ball, and Ted never swings at a ball. There are few pitchers who get any thrills from having one of their fast balls hammered out of the ball park. They view such a pro-ceeding with practically no cheer. Bounding Dodgers In a strict Florida fishing accent, the Rt. Hon. Burt Shotton, the Dodger's high gun, issued one of the most truthful statements of the year. He asked, in effect. Just why the Dodgers shouldn't win the next Na-tional league pennant since they had much the best ball club in their league including catchers, pitchers, infielders and outfielders? You've got to admire a statement of this sort for it puts manager Shotton on the hot seat.
