PROGRAM IS ANNOUNCED The following interesting program has been announced for the meeting to be held at the home of

on tour with "Tovarfeh". Unknown to audience, he also has been playing bits in the production. Last week, he joined the company in Houston, the week previous in St. Louis and the week before that in Indianapolis. Half the time, the studio has been unable to find him for conferences on “Women Are Dangerous". An unsuspected witness of his horse, High Strike’s win at Bay Meadows, was Bing Crosby. The crooner, returning from receiving an honorary degree at Gonzaga university, ducked off the train at Oakland and bought his way into the track like an ordinary customer. Although High Strike won a purse of $5,955 in the Home Bred handicap, Crosby didn’t have a single bet on the animal. Was afraid of jinxing him. At that, the star came off all right for the horse cost him only $5,600. Had no idea that Rosalind' Rus. sell's clan was so large. The star is one of six children and all will meet for a family reunion in New York on Thanksgiving. When Rosalind tells Hollywod goodby, it will be for six weeks. The actress’ nerves are shot from working in too many pictures and M. G. M. is giving her a long vacation. Chatter. . . . Winchell is off for New York and will be back on the air Nov. 21. . . . Gloria Dickson and Perc Westmore will be married June 8, the day that his divorce is final. . . . Jed Harris was so Keen to get Madge Evans for a play that he sent her a telegram an hour for a whole day. Each contained the single word, “Well . . . Nice of Jimmy Durante to send the Frank Baileys back to New York where there was a death in the family. ... In Berkeley, on the day of the big game, Al Lewin told a waitress to get him two oneminute eggs. “All right,” she said, “But I don’t know how long it will take." . . . And here’s an item of cheer to stutterers. Fredric March, who once suffered from the impediment, is singled out for his perfect diction by H. M. Karr in his book, “The Speaker’s Voice”. Cecil B. De Mille and David Windsor also get a nod.

ANIMAL AND PET PICTURES < .. ; X It W / I The very fact that animals and pets don’t pose makes them Ideal photographic subjects.

FROM household pets to giants of the jungles —animals are ideal 'subjects for snapshooters. They don’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 interest. 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 w hat 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 a 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 shut'er 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, better 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. At more than ten feet, for example, a squirrel becomes almost invisible UNLESS it is sharply revealed on a branch, with the sky for background. Obviously, you’ll need to use a fast shutter; squiirels 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 filmYou'll need all the detail vou can get,' and the utmo’t in color value ren-. dering. John van Guilder
