Draft Extension Passed By the margin of a single vote the House of Representatives has approved the bill which will keep draftees in the Army for two and one-hal^, years. Two hundred and three members voted for the eighteen months extension, while two hundred and two opposed it. As Speaker Rayburn rose to announce the vote a hush fell over the chamber. As soon as the totals were revealed opposition leaders demanded a recapitulation. After several minutes delay the Speaker announced that tile bill had passed by one vote. The Senate promptly concurred in House amendments and the bill now goes to the President for his approval. "War" Senator Delays Defense Project A special committee of the House which has been investigating the cause of the delay in the construction of the Army airfield in Florida, which is known as Eglin Field, has just submitted its report. This report severely criticizes a certain United States Senator who long has been regarded as the most beilico&e and belligerent advocate of our entry into the war. The committee found that this wordy warrior, although daily advocating our entry into armed conflict, prepared or unprepared) had used political influence with respect to certain construction material purchases, and that his action in this respect has caused an unwarranted delay in the completion of the defense project. Perhaps this Senator feels that if our nation, can be pushed into the war it may mean more "war" contracts for his "friends." It would be better if the Senator would think a little more of the lives of American boys and not so. much about "war" measures. National Defense Expenditures in Illinois According to a recent report of National Defense expenditures in thg State of Illinois the sum of Four Hundred and Five Million Thirteen Thousand Dollars has either been spent or awarded in the State of Illinois during the fiscal year, July 1, 1940 - June 30, 1941.

Develop a firm grip on teur photography. Try It once and camera, and move it smoothly >u'll find that eacb good shot brings the urge tor more. Moreover, In this age of popularfeports, the field of subject matter is virtually endless. To picture fast action yon need a camera with a high-speed shatter •nd s fairly rapid lens. With modern high-speed films, however, an ultra-fast lens Is not as Important as It was several years ago, but a shutter with speeds ranging from 1/200 Uy 1/500 of a second Is Ideal If you take many pictures ot this If you have a camera with slow shutter speeds, there are certain tricks you can use to offset this disadvantage. For example, consider the picture above. The action Is directly across the lens, and a shutter speed of 1/400 of a second was necessary to stop movement If you stood in a position, however, where more directly toward you, the tlon would appear less rapid, and 1/200 of a second would to the direction ot the motion, the subject centered in the finder. When the subject the desired spot, release the ter. In this manner you can pictures of rapidly moving subjects at shatter speeds as slow as 1/50 of a second, rendering the sufried sharp, with the background drawn out In a long blur, suggest ing speed. Often times yon can pose *n action shot that will convey all the feeling of rapid motion In the finished print. Just have your subject take a practice golf Bwing, a stroke, or whatever When you see a pose that Is par" ticularly effective, have him stop for a second, or repeat the nositlQa. while you take the picture. Don't let a camera with a slopr shutter stop you from taking action pictures. Try some ot the mentioned, and see *how many opportunities you be turned into graphs. i-f-" i . .
