r^ROM household pets to giants of
" the jungles—animals are Ideal
subjects for snapshooters. They
ilon't pose; they don't act. You can
snap them in natural, undirected
action and that Is just the reason
their pictures create so much in-
terest.
To get good pictures of any animal
the first essential Is patience. It is
quite possible that the family dog
will stand up obligingly for you on
command, but in picturing all other
animals you'll find It necessary to
wait for the picture you want.
And this brings us to the question
—what do you want in an animal
picture?
You may prefer to snap a kitten
as It plays with a string or a dog
wrestling with * stick.
Domestic animals, of course, offer
few real camera difficulties, for you
can get them to come where the
light is right. Open shade, on a
bright day, will be found best. As
for shutter speed (if your camera
has variable speeds), you'll need
l/25th of a second or faster, to
catch fleeting poses and expressions.
Unless the light is exceptional, bet-
ter work with the lens wide open.
To snap less controllable animals <
—squirrels, birds, and such—you'll
need greater patience and cunning.
Much depends on background and
on your distance from the subject.1
At more than ten feet, for example,
a squirrel becomes almost invisible
UNLESS it is sbarply revealed on a
branch, with the sky for back-
ground. Obviously, you'll need to
use a fast shutter; squirrels move
too swiftly for slow snaps.
The zoo can be a happy hunting
ground, too. In many cases, you'll
be able to shoot through or over
the bars of cages, obtaining clear,
unobstructed snaps.
Use a modern, color sensitive film.
You'll need all the detail you can get
and the utmost in color value ren-
dering.

th loss if Betty Jane Phinney where he is undergoing treat-
and Gladys Bland. Betty has mov- ments. He was to have under-
rT'S almost unbelievable but it is
1 true that many amateur enap-
shooters have the notion that It is
only the unusual that Is worthwhile
snapping. When they travel, a
camera is taken along to get pic-
tures of new scenes and new faces
but they use It around their homes
only on special occasions.
"But," you may say, "I've already
made good snaps around the house.
What else Is there to shoot?"
Nobody can answer that question
for you directly. But it's dollars to
doughnuts that there are dozens of
untouched picture possibilities. And
all of them interesting as the ones
already in your album.
The secret of finding them is sim-
ply a matter of keeping your eyes
open. Get the habit of looking at
things—everything—as though you
had never seen them before. It's
amazing the way this habit will
sharpen your Interest—now dulled
by sheer familiarity—In even the
most commonplace things.
Some of the finest pieces of pho-
tographic art have been results of
appreciative eyes In the heads of
stay-at-homes. The pattern of sun
•nd shade on the front steps, the
fascinating interplay of roof lines,
tree portraits—are typical of pic-
tures that may be made at home—
unusual pictures of usual subjects.
Don't be afraid of doing things'
differently. It's a tonic to tackle old
subjects from new points of view.'
If, to get a shot that appeals to you,
you have to upset the "laws" of safe-
and-sane snapshooting, don't hesi-
tate. If your eye enjoys the scene,.'
whatever it is, the chances are that;
your camera will enjoy it too. '
With such helps as the in-
expensive photo-flood bulbs (for
which efficient reflectors are avail-
able) you can do your snapshooting
Indoors as well as out. Present-day,
cameras, films and lights give you
unlimited scope for your snapshoot-
ing. Today almost any picture la
possible—and at any time.
Of all words of praise for the
snapshooter, the sweetest are these,
spoken by a friend:—"Well, would
you look at that! I've seen that spot
every day for the last fifteen years
and I never dreamed it had the mak-i
lngs of a picture like this."
Maybe you've heard these wordfj
already! Congratulations! ' '

iPaul (Me and Dizzy) Dean, for-
mer St. Louis Cardinal star, gave
1500 Denison fans a thrill Sun-
day afternoon at Miller diamond,
although he gave up ten hits and
ten runs in the six innings he hurl-
ed for Sherman Independents. The'
Mi'lers won 11 to 9 behind A1
Baker, who twirled tight ball in i
the pinches, but took things easy/
most of the way.
Brantley, Miller hindsnatcher,1
was the batting star of the game,1
collecting four hits in five times
up and scoring three runs per-
sonally. Boatwright blasted three
hits for runner up position.
In an interview with a Pres3
representative, Paul, unlike his
loquacious brother, was re'.uctant
to talk about his chances of going {
back to the big show after two)
years of idleness because of a
sore arm. However, he did say
he "hoped to be back in a Cardi-[
nal uniform next year," and that
his arm was improving.

' Each day that passes sees the
race in the National league get
just a litt le ho'ter as New York
and Chicago battle for the pen-

Sunday the Giants managed to
hold their margin over the Cubs
by splitting a pair with Boston,
winning the first 3 to 1 behind
the five-hit hurling of Cliff Mel-
ton, then dropping the afterpiece
6 to 4. Chicago broke even
with Pittsburgh, copping fhe op-
ener 5 to 0 and losing the sec-
ond 4 to 2. Larry French held
the Bucs to four scattered hits in
the first game.
Cincinnati defeated St. Louis
10 to 7, only, to have the Cards
come back in the second clash
and grab it 2 to 0. Philadelphia
and Brooklyn pulled the same
trick, the Dodgers coming back to
win 9 to 5 after the Phils had
copped the first contest 4 to 3 in
ten frames.
In the American loop New York
and Washington each won a game
by the «ame score 2 and 1. Red
Ruffing suffered defeat and Lefty
Gomez victory for the Yanks.
Boston ran over Phiiedelphia 13

INSIDE-OUT GOWN
NOT SO STYLISH
When Helen Westley, the noted
character actress turned original
i i her conception of how a dress
thould be worn, she created :
1 avoc on the Twentieth Century-
Fox set where "Cafe Metropole,"
Opening Tuesday at the Star thea-
tre, was being filmed.
After devoting an afternoon to
rehearsals and shooting of a
K'ene at a dining-room table with
I.oretta Young, Tyronne Power
and Miss Westley, director Ed-
ward H. Griffith was horrified
when an assistant pointed out that
Miss Westley's dress didn't
seem as becoming as it should.
Tactfully investigating, Griffith
discovered that she was wearing
the dress wrong side out!
"But it looks better this way,"
she protested. "What with low
backs and low necks, how are
you going to tell the difference?"

tion of Gordon and Revel tunes
is o-la-la without mentioning a
pretty face and histrionical some-
thing or other.
As the granddaughter of Edgar
Allen Foe, Miss Faye goes in for
heavy dramas, declining to star
in Don Ameche's musical comedy
until Charles Winninger impres-
j scs on her the need of a Broadway
;"name" before attempting any-

I Ameche seems unjustifiably
lacquered, almost to a point of
"sissiness." By virture of a ha -
Py arrangement, however, he is
cast with the Ritz Brothers, mad
