Nelson. Davis had previously been convicted by district court Jury of involun tary manslaughter for the youth's death. Judge Nelson decreed that Davis should serve 11 months in jail, with eight months suspended. He further ordered that the de fendant shall be placed on 18 months probation after complet lng his three months in jail. Davit will not begin serving his jail term until Jan. 2 under a stay of execution granted by Judge Nelson. The Maurin youth died after his motorcycle collided wlthstavis' car near Payson. In the trial against Davis, the state contended the defendant was under the in fluence of intoxicating liquor and that his car was on the wrong side of the road at the time of the crash. Davis' main point of defense was the contention that his car blew a tire, assertedly causing it to swerve and strike the motorcycle. A second youth riding with young Maurin was seriously injured in-jured but recovered. The dry-farming areas of New Mexico are mostly in the northeastern north-eastern one-fourth of the state and along the eastern border. I p-ju r - .

The great day when everybody rushes around giving everyone else just the. thing they wish they could keep for themselves. The day when we all eat enough to last us a week, and wish we hadn't. .The day that brings joy to people peo-ple in business unless they buy too much of all the wrong things, or have people who look very good jump their bills or pilfer their till. In our business Christmas is the day that countless thousands of feet of movie film are , destroyed de-stroyed by improper exposure. (I know I wrote about this last week, but most of you didn't read it, anyhow). So let's examine the problem. Type "A" Kodachrome will make a good still picture at l50th of a second at f.4.5. if the lights are placed NOT MORE THAN four feet from the subject two number two floods, that it. (It doesn't matter mat-ter if the camera is eight or en feet away from the subject sub-ject THE IMPORTANT THING 15 THE DISTANCE OF THE LIGHTS -FROM THE SUBJECT). SUB-JECT). Now, a movie camera set at 16 frames a second, exposes each frame at 130 of a second or thereabouts. This means that a good exposure can be obtained at f. 56 or f.45 with the lights at four feet from the subject. Obviously a Christmas tree cannot be lighted light-ed with the lights only four feet from It. With the lights placed at six feet from the subject, the exposure would be about f. 3.5 or even a little better. With the lights placed at about seven feet you will have reached the limit of your f. 2.5 camera. And by this time all of the room behind the subject will come out bathed In deep shadow unless you use a THIRD FLOOD LIGHT and place it behind a chair or the Christmas tree to light up the wall. REFLECTOR SPOTLIGHTS are now available, which will give you the. same light on the subject when they are oiacccJ fifteen feet from the the ordinary floodi give you when they are placed plac-ed three or four feet from the subject. For movies these reflector re-flector SPOTS solve many vexing problems. Anyhow, a Merry Christmas to you all, and the best of luck if you happen to have any Type "A" 8mm movie film-wish film-wish I had some.
