Each country has its own special anniversaries, events and heroes to honor.

Collectors have their own peculiar preferences depending on the nation and spe cialty. But beautiful Cowers always seem to have universal appeal. And, when the little republic of San Marino issued a special set of 10 stamps depicting its native flowers, the stamp world extended a welcome hand. Some of flowers featured on this latest issue include: orchids, lilies, poppies, liles of the valley, pansies, gladioli, wild roses and primroses. Canada has issued a new 5- cent stamp honoring its mining industry.

It was issued to coin cide with the sixth Commonwealth Mining and Metalurgical Con gress held at Vancouver. The main design shows a miner work ing underground with a pneuma tic drill. The story of United Nations postage stamps from design to the finished product is told in an illustrated booklet published by the U.N. Postal Administration. The 87-page publication is intended as a guide to philatelists and those interested in the postal issues of the United Nations.

It is entitled "United Nations Post- LOOKING 'N By AXX WARDELL SAUXDERS Now that it's open season on new teleshows, here go the bouquets and brickbats: The starting episode of the Joan Caulfield "Sally" comedy series was too contrived and un realistic for an adult audience, unless it were given a mid-Victorian setting. I have a feeling that the ew Eve Arden show never will get off the ground. On first showing, Eve never seemed to drop her Miss Brooks" characterization making Liza Hammond a sort of dual personality. But Eve's big success in "Our; Miss Brooks" was due to her wonderful supporting cast in the bom bastic Osgood Conklin, Walter Denton and Mr. Boyington, not to mention some mighty funny situations dreamed up by Al Lewis and Joe Quillan.

FRESH APPROACH "Have Gun, Will Travel," with Richard Boone pulling the trigger, is a fresh approach to the West ern, and one that likely will be popular. If the opening gun of "Wagon Tram," with Ward Bond in the saddle, is any indication, this hour long show will give the grade-B Western movies a bad time. Maybe I'm biased, on ac count of one of my illustrious an-1 cestors operated a wagon train (I thought they called them mule trains) from St. Louis to Springfield to St. Joseph when those cities were nothing but trading posts, and Missouri is the locale for "Wagon Train."

PAYNE The Norton Stamp and Coin Club, at its meeting Monday eve ning, initiated a procedure which is unique in the annals of such collector organizations. Service personnel, newly ar-rfved from overseas stations, may apply for and receive uncirculated or mint condition coins and commemorative stamps which were issued during their absence from the continental limits of the United States. Such coins and stamps are to be provided at cost both by the club and some of the older members. A resolution was passed, at this meeting, thanking General Jack son for the gift of a sheet of Air Force commemoratives obtained by him on the first day of sale. Tuesday evening the Redlands Stamp Club moved its meeting place to the Citizens National Bank in Redlands and aside from the confusion caused by some members going back to the old meeting place from force of habit, the gathering went well, ter minated by a lively swapping ses sion.

Gil Schmidtman exhibited with pride the $10 gold piece he won at last week's meeting of the San Bernardino County Coin Club.

Your ques tion is of sufficient general inter est to merit a comprehensive an swer and it will be undertaken here and now. Your letter is touching and any recipient of such a letter can Photography News World By ED FITZGERALD ft'nited Press Staff Photographer) The Swiss, who long have been associated with precision watch making, have made another no table entry into the photographic field. Already the manaufacturers of the Bolex movie camera and the Alpa single lens reflex camera, both of which have made enviable reputations on the world market, these masters ol precision, nave just announced an 8mm movie camera and projector, all in one In this case, the announcement was made by the Wittnauer Instrument Division, a division of the Longines-VVittnauer Watch of New York. This unique movie camera can be converted into a projector and back again as often as needed. HOW IT WORKS It is believed that this is the first unit of its type to reach the market.

The camera-projector will be called the Wittnauer Cine-Twin and will be the forerunner of a line of photographic equipment to be announced later this year. The Cine-Twin is equipped with a normal 13mm lens and a projection lens. The price will be $159.50. For projection, the four-j pound camera is set on a project tor base containing a power-cooled lamphouse which has a switch and tilt control. The side of the camera is re-' moved and two 300-foot reels are mounted on arms which are with drawn from within the camera, i The camera is powered by three D-cell batteries of the or dinary flashlight variety.

The camera is then ready to show film. Accessories for the such as interchangeable lenses. carrying cases and color filters, are available.

ONLY in of is at at of a readily understand your sentimental attachment for the coin which is 125 years old and be-longer! to your father. The dealers, to whom you wrote the past, were not the hardhearted merchants you picture them to be but were, on the contrary, too soft-hearted to destroy your concept of the value of this coin. Therefore they suggested that you buy a book which would show, in cold print, the value of your coin aVid others of equal and greater age. This writer has no books for sale and will therefore attempt, with several examples, to clarify the matter of old coins versus rare coins. There is some difference of opinion, among numismatists and archaeologists, as to the 30 pieces silver mentioned in the Bible.

Some contend that they were shekels of Judea, others hold that they were tetradrachm of Tyre but both agree that they were ap proximately like our present silver half dollar in size and weight. This agreement is obviously because there are many pieces of each in existence today and many collectors have one or the other or both. Consider this carefully: Gen-nine coins of silver which circulated nearly 2,000 years ago are available today for less money than an uncirculated U.S. half dollar struck at the San Francisco mint in 1919. Furthermore such a half dollar far more costly than one struclc any U.S.

mint in 1819 or any half dollar-sized piece struck at any mint in the world in 1719. Another example. There is no doubt or difference of opinion about the tribute penny mentioned in the Bible. All are agreed that it is a denarius of' Tiberius Caesar. They were plentiful then and are readily obtainable now and can be bought for less than the cost of a Lincoln cent struck Denver in 1914.

Another example. Indian Head cents of 1862, 1863 and 1864 are practically a dime a dozen but one of 1877, clear and sharp, costs more than a genuine Widows Mite which circulated in Judea in Bib lical times. The Spanish 'Pieces of Eight pirate fame, stuck in the early days of this continent, are rare and desirable collector's items and some of them cost hun dreds of dollars each but you could buy a bushel basket full for the price of an uncirculated U.S. silver dollar of 1804. Coins of the Roman Empire are also much sought after by collectors but you can buy a handful with an uncirculated dime struck at San Francisco in 1949 or 1950.

Two important facts should stand out from these examples. An old coin i's not necessarily rare and rare coin must be new or near ly new to be valuable.

'J Mm every word clear, while the op era singer rarely is understand able in any language, especially his own. Most of the trouble stems from the insistence of nearly all voice teachers of "singing on the vow-i els." This practice certainly shows the timbre of the voice at its best, and it obviously is necessary to hold a sustained tone, for no one can sing long on a consonant.

But like most good things, such as eating chocolate, it can be overdone. EASIEST WAY Singing on the vowels is the easiest way of singing. Vocal teachers larelv that Ital ian is the easiest language in which to sing, because of its emphasis on the vowels. But few of them are linguists enough to perceive that the consonants give laneuare any lantruase its char acter, and they must be delivered adeouately for Droner un derstanding. Words are our means of com munication from one person to another, and the singer who does not articulate his words loses all the value of communication of i ideas, retaining only the slender inreat or pleasant sounds to bind himself to the listener.

That is why opera is a foreign tongue does not appeal to the average American auditor, even if he is a music lover. "Table," for example is SDelled exactly the same in French as it is in English, but the pronunciation is quite different. If only the first vowel is stressed, leav ing the rest of the word to be sloughed off, it is not comnre- hensible in either tongue. Grant ed it is not a good word and definitely not a romantic word for singing, if it occurs, it should be sung, and sung in such a way that the listener will know to what object it refers. A good singer is quite properly concerned with tone, but he should be no less concerned with sense.

'HI 6:30 1. M. By RICHARD D. SAUNDERS It is a surprising fact that most untrained singers enunciate their words much more clearly Jhan most of the trained singers. The average nightclub warbler for example, who seldom has i vocal range of more than an oc tave and whose quality is strict Dan Wynn (right) tries a new sitting.

Anything to amuse NEWS feature a ferocious gorilla costume and concerned the type of glam orous model to go with it. The fashion director was con cerned only with the present sit ting: four costumes featuring mon key and raccoon fur. She predict ed it was a trend which would soon be in vogue in the college girl set. Her assistant pulled pinched and pinned the apparel to present a camera-eye view of perfect fit. FINAL JUDGE the preliminaries, Wynn was the final judge on cos tume and accessories, model makeup and hairdo but always with a light touch and gay banter.

When the models steped onto the camera stage, Wynn issued all the orders but without losing the prevailing good humor. He encouraged the models with a con stant "fine fine!" as they got his ideas across. Often, he as sumed the positions he wanted, sometimes ludicrously, and the response was even better. He used a studio electronic flash set-up and carefully checked the calibration with a large met er for shooting color. "With speedlight," he explained, "I never have to worry about freezing an expression or motion with a 'Hold com mand.

After focusing and stop ping the lens down, I shoot when the action is right knowing that it'll stop the movement and get sharp detail in the important areas." I noticed that Wynn went a step' further and did a lot of "follow-up" shooting, that is, some seconds after models assumed the picture had been tak en. He remained continually alert for natural or graceful poses the subjects might unconsciously fall into in unguarded moments. For those who would like to make fashion photography a ca reer, Dan Wynn believes an art background, a thorough knowl edge of camera technique and fundamentals and a genuine feel ing and liking for clothes are es sential. in and Out With Square Dancers A11 classrs and club danre begin at 9 p.m. unless otherwise stated.)

RA By IRVING DESFOR Among serious photographers, Dan Wynn is the guy who has1 the most fun shooting high fash- ions, the one who can put a twinkle in the eye of a camera and produce a gay, light-hearted picture. His high reputation as a clown with a camera has paid off well in the 10 years that he has been in the fashion field. It has en abled him to buy a former carriage house in New York City's mid-Manhattan, which he is currently remodeling into a unique photographer's studio.

"Just picture the change" he said, "from this two-by-four studio to a tremendous area where I can open the doors and drive a truck onto the set for a prop if necessary. WATCHING TECHNIQUE At the moment I was watching his technique at his present quarters and the thought of a truck barging in was extreme. With two assistants, a magazine fash ion director and his assistant, a mutual friend, myself and four lovely models, the studio was crowded. comfortably crowded, I thought, from my closeup view of the models. One assistant, male, loaded and changed films, shifted lights and props throughout the sitting and developed the black-and-white films after the shooting.

One assistant, female, helped the models in costume changes, interviewed a stream of would- be models for assignment (with consultation and inspection by the boss) and started arrangements to procure proper accessories for the next day's assign ment.
