DOT'S FOR SURE:
Spots Before Your Eyes
Really Make Up Photos
By GEORGE WALKER
As you glance over the photographs appearing in today's Daily,
take a close look at the thousands of little dots that make up each
picture.,
Fifty years ago today a bright photo-engraver discovered the intri-
cate process behind those dots and thus opened a new era of the
press-an age in which a picture can be taken half-way around the
world and appear in your newspaper within a few hours.
* * * *I
THE PROCESS IS CALLED half-tone, and it involves a tremen-
dous battery of equipment-including cameras, arc lights, zinc plates,
and a good helping of acid.
Here's how it's done :
It all starts with the photographer, who, after "taking" a fire
or wreck or touchdown play, rushes the exposed film to a dark-
room, where it is developed in the usual way. A print is made
of this, and another picture is taken of the print, this time
through a finely ruled plate glass screen, constructed in such a
way as to admit light only through thousands of tiny transparent
openings.
When the negative is developed, the tones of the original picture
are represented by dots. Then a print is made of this second negative,
this time on a copper or zinc plate coated with a sensitive solution
made of water, fishglue, and ammonium bichromate.
THE PLATE, after printing, is placed in an acid bath, and left
there 'till the dots are as small as possible. The raised portions are
protected by the fishglue solution.
A finishing process refines the dots, making them as small as
the particular use of the picture deserves.
After a proof is made of the "cut," it is compared with the
original print, and further alterations are made, if necessary.

In my book, the Chesterfield
Supper Club (7 p.m., Mon.-Fri)
rates as one of the neatest little
fifteen minute packages on the air
today.
Spotlighting the music of Perry
Como on the Monday, Wednesday
and Friday shows. Jo Stafford on

Tuesday night and the latest ad-
dition, Peggy Lee on Thursday,
it seems to offer just the right
blend of music that makes for
smooth listening.
Aside from the fact that it
features three of the mellowest
voices in radio, the Club offers a
fine combination of variety enter-
tainment.

is to guess the identity of the
screen star whose voice is re-
layed over the air.
Somehow, even the commercials
are inoffensive, and you can lean
back peacefully and almost pic-
ture the smoke rings drifting
skyward.

U.S. HELPS OUT:
Handicaps Fail to Hinder
Ambitious Vets,_Civilians

WASHINGTON - (A) - A lad
who lost a leg in the Battle of the
Bulge has been trained to be a
skilled draftsman. He's buying a
home.
A sailor who was hit in the
stomach when the U.S.S. Franklin
buckled under Japanese attack
now has his own business and is
employing two of his Navy bud-
dies. He's bought a car.
A FLYER WHO bailed out over
Bremen and lost his foot is home,
driving his own car and has a
sales job. He's president of a
luncheon club.
Or take civilians.
Take a 21-year-old lad with a
polio-twisted backbone who'd
spent years in hospitals. le was
finally trained for jewelry man-
ufacture. After three years on
the job he's a top workers in his
factory.
Take a girl who was knocked out
by polio and is now a receptionist
for a medical institute.
Some 6,000,000 physically han-
dicapped people are at work in the
country.
* * *
THREE FEDERAL agencies are
working to find these people, help
them to train for jobs that will

by-pass their trouble, whether its
blindness, a lost leg, spastic pa-
ralysis or what not. They are the
Office of Vocational Rehabilita-
tion, The U. S. Employment Serv-
ice and the Veterans' Administra-
tion. All have state branches.
For the past three years
they've been helped by a net-
work of volunteer committees
across the states. Many employ-
ers have pitched in too.
Each year representatives of all
the parts of the whole team meet
to work up steam for the year
ahead. The period of their meet-
ing is called "National Employ the
Physically Handicapped Week."
This year it's this week, Oct. 3-9.
The war gave a fillip to interest
in the problems of the handi-
capped.
THEN RETURNING war veter-
ans added the dash of sentiment
that was needed to keep the in-
terest in handicapped going at
full steam.
The Office of Vocational Re-
habilitation found it costs an av-
erage of $500 to train a handi-
,Iapped worker for a job, that it
will repay Uncle Sam for the
training they got.

TWO IN TEMPO-Songstress Peggy Lee and her husband, Dave
Barbour, set the tempo for Miss Lee's stint on the NBC "Supper
Club."
