Show TEST RUN, Dugway Proving Crooad, Friday, July 9, 1965 Seat Belts Work -- 1 The Gift Outright Know Service Group Studys Credit Practices - The editor of the Test Run eterted for Grand Canyon Fri-- . day, July 2, thinking he would spend the long weekend enjoying the sights and relaxing from office key pounding. INSTEAD, about 30 minutes after leaving Dugway he was lying ki an automobile which had rolled approximately twice. He and die driver received only a couple of motor cuts, a the seat belts were fastenbruise or two and some soreness ed. The car was badly damaged, the windshield smashed, the doors sprung, the front tenders dented, the sides and top slightbut when the car came to a stop upsidedown ly remodeled the occupants were held in the seats and were alive. The editor is quite happy to be alive but he had some second thoughts. He did not have his seatbelt on when leaving Post, nor did he when the car entered the Lockout Pan area. ABOUT FIVE MINUTES before the car rolled, happening to glance down, he saw the seatbelt on the floor and on impulse reached down and buckled it. The editor doesn't have seatblets in his car - but he intends to put them there and to wear them. - - . - Editorial The June M issue Times ran the following editorial concerning service drinking: THE CHARGES by a panel of psychiatrists that the services encouraged drinking by their traditions, low prices for alcoholic beverages and social pressures, are disturbing 'to many persons because of inferences that can be drawn. One might argue that such encouragement can be halted by closing the post package stores and clubs and raising the price of beer in Jhe exchanges. One might also argue that the serving of alcoholic beverages at official social functions should be banned. Such controls have been proposed from time to time, but wisely, they have not been approved. FOB GOOD OB ILL, the consumption of alcoholic beverages is an accepted practice in much of the world, and we think it is nonsense to suggest that the military tradition en- -. courages people ki imbibe. As the psychiatrists who wrote the report point out, the military legal system is much harsher on drunkenness than is civilian law. The psychiatrist should have realised (hat the practices they view as "encouragement"- - to drink are actually restraints of a kind. The lower prices in the clubs and exchanges tend to confine drinking to the post The social functions where alco- holic beverages are served are a kind of control, too, because each man knows the consequences of frequent drunkenness be- fore his superiors. dubs are more careful about FURTHERMORE, the age qualifications than are many town bartenders. Most of the incidents that require police action against drunken military men occur off the post where the prices are higher and the military tradition, that the psychiatrists complain about is less of an influence. We hope the psychiatrists report will not be used as ammunition against benefits benefits that are of value both to the military men and to the organizations they serve. (AFPS) Proposals are being examined by study group concerning present consumer credit practices affecting military personnel.

As an artist creates beauty, realism, and depth to his canvas by the use of various Blades of paint, so also can the photographer become an artist by proper placement of his lights. Good lighting creates a dimensional effect upon the subject, and only three lights are necessary to obtain a professional type portrait; The first, and most important light, is the main light which should dominate the subject. The secto sofond light is the fiU-i- n ten the hanh shadow areas. The third light is the back- ground light used to eliminate the shadows cast by the other two lights, giving a third dimensional effect to the subject. The type of lighting to be used can be determined by the Riadow from the- - nose. Flat lighting will render little, if any shadow from the nose. This lighting indicates the main light source is close to foe camera. Short lighting is a near silhouette type, often used in dramatic and in masculine type of 8824&05 Reminder of Our justice true.

The Butter fly lighting often used in glamour pictures, shows a very short shadow line. THE BACKGROUND, for portraits, may be a plain wall, a curtain, or a patterned, piece' of material. A simple and plain background is usually best for a quality picture. The world renowned portrait artist, Yosef Karsh of Ottawa, Canada, who has photographed famous personalities around the world, has used an army blanket for a. background. Controlled lighting can change the background to nearly any degree of contrast. Here are some basic pointers to begin practice on portraiture: 1) Keep the camera on level with the subjects chin or higher. 2) Keep the subject away from the background. 3) Use a telephoto or long focal length legs if available. 4) Set up the main light first before adding the others. 5) Check your-- exposure with your expo-- 1 sure meter. 6) Try a variety of poses, lighting, and expressions.
