'II.IE'SDAY;.' 'NOVEMBER 27; •! 1951' - , `Shadow' Learns On Photog's Jaunts Extra-curricular activities have a way of playing havoc with your hours for bridge, or for studying, should you fall within the study-bug category. Provided you are willing to sacrifice a bridge hour —we would never suggest your sacrificing' a study hour you can have a hilarious time acting as a photographer's . shadow. It seems that several campus publications use staff photogra phers for assorted purposes, one of which, oddly enough, is tak ing pictures. Some photographers, by nature the extrovert type must on having .an assistant, whose job, the photographers say, is to qffer suggestions for taking shots. The real purpose, /of course, in putting up with the shadow's un professional comments, is to have someone ,who can be forced into lugging around an - assortment of flash bulbs, plates, and, H miscel laneous textbooks on "ow to Take Effective Photographs." Dead Bulbs . The first step in beiag a cap able shadow is to learn to accept the fact that there. isnt' time' for pleasant niceties. The photogra pher gallops at full speed up the Mall (you are carrying his cam era and,' equipment) and, seeing a romantic-looking couple saunter ing along, stops them with a curt "Hold on, will ya,?" grabs his camera, 'flicks out a flashbulb from your pocket, and, amid a blinding flash of light, claims he's just taken the best shot •of the year. Oftentimes you find yourself disappointed, when, with your eyes half-closed to avoid the blinding flash, nothing happens. The bulb is dead. Eager. Students Crashing parties presents fewer difficulties than crashing classes, to get shots of busy engi neers "or absorbed liberal artists involved in the complicated pro cesses of thought. Professors, for tunately, ar e quite cooperative, and stop lecturing long enough to give their students a break during the half-minute interval it takes to get the picture. Students are amazingly eager to have their pictures taken, de spite the fact that coeds insist on having a minute to comb a few stray locks. This accomplished, they sit up unaccustomedly straight, and give the photogra pher his chance to take the best shot of the year. engagement Stalcup-Krebs Mr. and Mrs. William Krebs of Springfield have announced the engagement of _their , daughter, Helene, to Donald Stalcup, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Stalcup of Lansdowne.
