The open house will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Marines will use flamethrowers, machine-guns, grenades, rockets and rifles. There will be something special to see and do for everyone of all ages and interests at the Armed Forces Day open house this Saturday, May 18, at the Great Lakes Naval Training center. An air-ground assault by United States Marines, a colorful graduation review of nearly 1,000 recruits, boat rides, fire fighting demonstrations, Navy bands, drill units and supersonic missiles are only a few of the feature attractions. More than 20,000 persons are expected to pass through the gates of the world's largest ' naval training center for the all-day open house. It will be- CASTING NEARS COMPLETION FOR MUSICAL COMEDY gin at 9 a.m. and end about 5 p.m. Typical Navy scenes as well as special events, displays and demonstrations are in store for the visitors. This fourteenth annual Armed Forces Day open house is designed as a report to the American people on how well the Nayy is fulfilling its responsibility to help provide for the nation's defense. At Great Lakes, where members of nearly thirty different armed forces serve, Armed Forces Day has a special significance. This includes members of the armed forces of about 20 other nations, as well as officers and men of all five American military services. Visits to the USS Worland (PCE-845), one of the Navy's "Combelt Fleet" ships used to train Naval reservist from the Midwest will be possible. Tours of five technical schools are offered along with interesting displays by many of Great Lakes commands and activities. The schools are the Gunner's Mate, Electronics Technician, Engineman, and the Machinist's Mate-Boilerman. The famed Bluejacket Choir will sing church hymns and light classical songs. Appearing with them will be the Hospital corps school's energetic WAVES drill team. J. i. BUTL£K J. J. Butler, assistant director of the McHenry Theatre Playhouse production of "Once Upon a Mattress" June 28 and June 29, has an impressive background in the professional theatre. During one of his busiest theatrical seasons, he appeared at the Highland Park penthouse and Music theatres, performing with such theatrical luminaries as Dorothy Collins, Linda Darnell, Sessue Hayakawa, Jill Corey, Betty Jane Watson and Jack Washburn. He is very active as a director for theatre groups, among these the Little Theatre groups in Libertyville, Dundee. Fox River Grove and Crystal Lake. He was instrumental in forming the Crystal Lake Players and has directed, as well as satarred in numerous productions for that group, the most notable being "The Boy Friend," this past season. He is now in business in Crystal Lake. In the Playhouse presentation of this Broadway musical comedy, Mr. Butler will play the part of King Sextimus, who is unable to speak due to a curse put upon him by a wicked witch. His entire part will be done in pantomime. This part was played by Buster Keaton in the Chicago company of "Once Upon a Mattress." This delightful musical comedy is a parody on the fairy tale of the Princess and the Pea, and Ann Varese will be starring as the Princess Winifred who is so delicate that she can't sleep with a pea under the bottom of twenty downy mattresses. Ed Wittrock, who scored such a tremendous hit in "Bye Bye Birdie," will play Prince Dauntless. The Queen Mother Aggravain will be Florence Engdahl, who walked off to shouts of laughter and applause in "Bye Bye Birdie." The lovely Lady Larken will be played by Irene Keim, who is well known for her exquisite voice and her outstanding solos with the McHenry Choral club. Displaying even more versatility than he has already shown will be John Leighty, as the Court Jester. Larry Ekeroth will play Sir Henry, Stanley Blumbers will portray the Wizard and Yvonne Matt will be cast as the minstrel. The choreography will be by Nancy Gardiner, whose fine work in the dances of "Bye Bye Birdie" is still being talked about. All seats are reserved and may be secured at the McHenry Theatre box office cr by mail. A WORD TO BRIDES: Keeping a man in hot water does NOT make him tender.

BOATING CHARLES MARS Charles Mars, better known to his McHenry friends as Eddie, is now serving somewhere in the Pacific. He joined the Army last June, following graduation from McHenry high school, took basic training at Fort Knox, and tnen attended airplane mechanics school at Fort Rucker, Ala. During his stay at Fort Rucker, he had a small part in the much publicized Meredith integration news story. The local serviceman was a crew member that flew troops to old Mississippi during that time. The company he now serves maintains helicopters. Boats and cameras combine to offer new excitement for the photo hobbiest. From sunrise to sunset, on clear days or in the fog, even by moonlight, marine settings present countless picture opportunities. But the newcomer to marine photography may snap dozens of shots under ideal conditions and have little to show for hi* consumption of film. Anyone who has come home from a day of boating with a sunburned face has learned one of the first basic facts of on-the-water phot ography. Water reflects far more light than land, and just as your skin can be overexposed, so most people tend to overexpose pictures taken on the water. In general, if you don't have a light meter to establish an accurate reading, close down one "f" stop smaller for marine photography than you would i v" ( t - 1 f - ,< jj , - y - '-m ' •/•i •: " , •' •" , V " - - ' - 'f- ^ \ ' ^1 \ ' / i ' ' ,{ " ' V " v *4 */'">• „-4 " • '> g :: / s ',' '/ ife, •'/*' ' i ClNI VMKtWMCN OT MMMQfc M0. 1245 N.

The tour was arranged by W. E. Pierce, chief of the Biometrics division at the Medical Research unit. Sister Mary Carol, RSM, and Sister Maria, RSM, escorted the group. shooting under similar light conditions on shore. Better yet, slip a light yellow K1 type filter over the lens. It will protect your lens from spray or blowing sand, cut the light approximately in half without closing down on your stops, will make clouds stand out against the sky and offer a clear separation between water and sky, water and sand, or sand and skin tones. Pictures taken of perfectly calm water with no reflections are dull. Toss a stone into the water to create ripples and add pattern to the picture. Your camera will capture water texture best if the subject and water are side or backlighted so as to cast shadows or if the shots are taken when the sun is low. To capture dramatic wave pictures, don't shoot at such a fast shutter speed that every drop of spray seems frozen in mid air. Rather, time your pictures to shoot as waves break. This will stop the motion of the wave mass but flying spray will blur and add motion and life to the picture. Keep your camera and film in a shaded location. Excessive heat can fog film and direct sunlight on the lens may damage the lens element.
