SPECIAL FEATURES 20 THE GAZETTE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1966 Why A Life-Long Democrat Decided To Switch His Vote The GameJLof Kings A a a By ART BUCHWALD could they do was repair BY D. M. LE DAIN QUIZ NO. 808 Black 11 Pieces lj lj S3 A L3 LJ them. They just dug a hole and wrapped some burlap around the broken pipe." "What about the draft?" "Oh, you get a pretty good draft from that sewer if the wind's blowing in our direction." To round up my survey I decided to interview a defeated Incumbent who lived four blocks away.

"Sir, why do you think you lost the "I think it was displeasure with the Great Society, Bobby Kennedy's failure to campaign for me and lack of money for a television campaign." "What political office did you hold?" "I was formerly the commissioner of sewers." "Mister, is it true that you voted Republican this time after being a registered Democrat?" "Yes, I did, ana I don't mind telling you why. I'm getting sick and tired of big gov ernmcnt interfering in your private life." "How's that?" "Well, you take that broken sewer out there. You know why it hasn't been fixed? Because everyone is waiting for the government to do it. Now the Republican philosophy, as I understand it, is that everyone should fix his own sewer. That's what made this country great.

Our forefathers didn't wait around for someone to repair sewers for national issue made you change your mind?" "They wouldn't fix my sewer." "I beg your pardon?" "You deef or something? I said the Democrats wouldn't fix my sewer. I told them a month ago, 'You better send someone out here to fix my sewer or I'm going to vote They paid no mind, so I voted Republican. If the Republicans don't come out and fix my sewer soon, I may become an independent." "Then Vietnam did not play a part in your switching your vote?" "Of course it did. I figured they're over there spending all that money giving those people new sewers, the least WASHINGTON This is the time when we must interpret the results of the U.S. elections.

What were the issues that made lifelong Democrats vote Republican and lifelong Republicans vote Democratic? Was it the Viet Nam war? Was it inflation? Wast it the white backlash? Nixon? The draft? In order to find out I went forth and inverviewed several voters on why they voted the way they did. I found a man sitting in a rocking chair on his porch smoking a corncob pipe. "Sir, your neighbors tell me you were a lifelong Democrat and for the first time in this election you voted Republican. Could you tell me what "Was your fear of inflation a factor in you switching your vote?" "Wal, in a way it was. When I called up to ask them why they wouldn't fix my sewer, they said it cost them twice as much to repair it now as it did 10 years ago.

So that got me to thinking. If you can't get your sewer repaired for a decent price there niu.st be inflation in this country." "Thank you very much sir. I'm glad you were influenced by the national issues in this election." I went across the street to another house and spoke to a man who was raking his leaves. mine. "What about the white backlash?" I asked him.

"Heck, I didn't care who fixed the sewer, just as long as they sent out a crew. You live around a broken sewer for a little while and you're ready to throw the incumbents out, no matter who they are." "Did former Vice-President Nixon influence you in any way?" "Not much. He might have, if he brought up the sewer issue; but he stayed away from it. I guess he was trying to unite the Republican Party." 73 r-i "rift fr a Norway replaced Poland In tnt championship linal when they won an adjourned game with USA in Preliminary Group III, which lett hem tied with Poland. The tie-break wiis decided by their earlier match with Poland, which they won.

Poland has accused the Americans ot throwing the gam so that Nor. way could move past Poland. The USA denied It, and team captains and officials backed them up. The game, Rsgnar Hoen, vs William Adriltnn, went Into two over-time sessions. Th abova scores oo not take Into account the USSR vs USA match, which was originally scheduled for the 2nd round but postponed when a hass'e developed over tht starting time.

The USA wanted the Saturday start postponed to 4 00 p.m. from 4 00 because of Bobby Fischer's refusal to play before sundown, due to his religious beliefs. This had been cleared with the Cuban organizers before the team left N.Y.. but apparently not with FIDE, and the Russians refused to accept the rulinq claiming the four match points by default. The USA then Intended to withdraw from the competition, but latr decided to continue while neoo-tiations proceeded with Foike Ro-gard, Stockholm, president of FIDE, and with USSR diplomatic authorities In Moscow and Washington.

Rogarde rulad that If USSR refused to play, the match be scored as drawn. 2-2 each. However, the Russians aqreed to play off, and in the announcement of th amicable settlement ot the dispute tht two teams toasted each other with glasses of brandy.

The United States Post Office Department states that the nation's supply of the new John a 1 1 Moore $5. stamps was produced in a press run of only seven hours. In contrast the Christmas stamp was on the press an estimated 3,900 hours.

Obviously the wide spread in press time is the result of quantity and complexity of production. The multi-colored Christmas stamp, in which lithography and intaglio were combined, had a press run of 1.2 billion. The John Bassett Moore issued Dec. 3 with ceremonies stamp, which will be first at Smyrna, Delaware, is a one color stamp with a press run of l.S million. This is an unlimited issue and additional stamps will be printed as required.

In the past the Bureau of Engraving and Printing has printed the $5. stamps on a low speed flatbed press, the same press which prints currency. The Moore stamp was moved to the high speed Coltrcll rotary press, which produces other one color stamps. The seven hour press run is not a new low however. The 25 cents stamp in coil form occupied even less time.

This stamp is intended primarily for use in vending machines in self-service post offices, and the need for it is limited. IK a.

If MIWVV1 I Deutsche Bundeipovt CAMERA By FRED BRUEMMER Depth in a picture, that third dimension on a two-dimensional surface, is obviously an illusion. Medieval painters did not know yet how to create this illusion. This is the reason their paintings, with everything so very obviously on one plane, look rather peculiar to us today. The science of perspective, discovered in the early Renaissance by artists like Brunelleschi, suddenly and dramatically added the third dimension to what had hitherto been a distinctly flat art. Early photography struggled all over again with this problem of giving something which is two-dimensional, the illusion of a third dimension, depth.

Good perspective in a photograph is something that has to be created. If you take a landscape picture from a prominent point on an overcast day, the result is bound to be flat. The absence of shadow and light eliminates contour and relief. The lack of foreground destroys the illusion of depth. What looked to the eye like an immense vista, looks flat and monotonous in the picture.

Take the same picture, include some objects in the foreground. Chose your light so that it gives good contrasts to hill and dale, and the result will be pleasing. You haven't really changed all that much, but by a judicious creation of foreground and contour, you have given the picture two essential elements, depth and form. Another factor to be considered Is comparative size. A table-top temple, only a few inches in size, photographed close up or the Acropolis photographed from a distance, will appear to be of the same size.

But lay a match next to the model or have a person stand next to one of the Acropolis' soaring columns and relative size is immediately established. There are many means of establishing both size relationship and depth, and a knowledge of these techniques can be most useful to accentuate a point one wishes to make. Some time ago a magazine carried pictures of gr.eat Roman structures. The photographer had made splendid use of various lenses (mainly wide angle ones) to create certain impressions. The great temple at Baalbek in Lebanon was photographed from a high vantage point with an extreme wide angle lens (my guess: a 21 mm lens on a 33 mm camera).

The result is stunning. The nearest columns are absolutely gigantic (a wide angle lens tends to exaggerate relative size), the more distant ones appear much smaller, and hence far far away. By the clever use of composition and lens, the photographer manages to dramatize both size and depth. You may never go to Baalbek, but dramatic depth can be created closer to home. Once you have learned to make us of it, your pictures will improve immensely.

Members of the Montreal Photographic Club are reminded that the slide competition will be held next Tuesday night at 8.15 p.m. There are two categories, Nature Slide and Maker's choice.
