Bolmanski is one of 296 photographers selected by a committee from among more than 15,000 in the United States to be listed in the Who in American Portrait Photography.

The writeup accompanying the picture of the Van Dyke Studio and operator stated; the time he was old enough to appreciate the world around him until he became 19, Louis Bolmanski dreamed of some day becoming an artist. But neither those first 19 years nor the realization of his dream were easy, for he was born in a log cabin on a Texas cotton farm and though sketching until late at night after a hard farming may be good practice, it butters no parsnips There are many forms of art, pho tography by no means the least among them, and so when a local photographer who admired his work offered to teach young Bol manski retouching, the offer was accepted. Later an engraver sug gested that his sketches be shown to an artist in Dallas. You have talent, but need training, was the verdict. Four years at college were financially 'mpossible.

Brooks, circulation manager of the Bryan Eagle, will be interested in the following account of his marriage, which took place on Saturday afternoon in Sulphur Springs. Miss Faye Sparkman, daughter of Mrs. W. B.

Sparkman of this city, was united in marriage to Roy A. Brooks of Bryan Saturday afternoon at 4 at the home of Mrs. H. H. Thomas on Connally Street, in a single ring ceremony performed by the Rev.

J. Daniel Barron, pastor of the First Methodist Church. Only a few close friends attended the ceremony, which was performed before an improvised altar of white flowers and greenery. The bride was attired in a navy sheer frock with a shoulder corsage of white carnations and tuberoses. Her accessories were navy and white.

Following the ceremony the couple left for their home in Bryan, where Mr. Brooks is employed as circulation manager of the Bryan Eagle, Mrs. Brooks has been manager of the local Western Union of fice for the past two and one- half years, coming here from Corsicana, where she received her training.

Bolmanski is leaving on July to attend the advanced photography course at Winona Lake, returning August 15. (Continued from Page 1) His announcement also partly answered the mystery of the American whereabouts since that day: Light units of the cruisers and destroyers smashed a four-ship Japanese convoy Monday morning only five miles west of Nojima Cape, in the very mouth of outer bay, while a similar task squadron simultaneously was shelling the town of Omura, on Chichi Island, in the Bonins 550 miles south and slightly east of Tokyo. That the fleet was thus able to separate into small units for varied missions in the heart of the seas was in itself significant of the lack of opposition. Whereabouts of the heavy units and their British Pacific Fleet partners that pated in Tuesday and Wednesday blows at the Tokyo region still was wrapped in a security blackout, however. The Japanese themselves predicted the allied battleships might strike again anywhere and at any moment.
