The Brussels Post, 1960-02-25, Page 3CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING ,4 4 4 6 1 - 4 ,` *41 t.4 '4 4 '1 '1 set -1 '41 A ws LIGHTS OUT — Stopped for good, San Francisco's famed "bird cage" traffic lights have been taken down as too, old-fashioned for the 'modern city, These lie In a warehouse before a public auction.., refusal, thereby mistiming their jump and coming to grief on the treacherous turf. So now the field was down to three horses out of nearly three dozen, and there was still a long way to go. But though the num- ber of runners had been reduced so severely the race was by ne means over. Shaun Spaded', Turkey Buz- zard and The Bore were racing along in that order — All White, who had, been remounted, was cantering steadily on well in the rear. Then the drama was carried a stage farther when Turkey Buz- zard, now thoroughly tired by his efforts to make up the ground lost by his earlier falls, came to grief once more, at the fence be- tween Becher's and the Canal, Turn. Yet again his rider remounted, determined to finish the course, and the gallant animal tore af- ter the leaders. But now the leeway was too greet and the distance in which to draw up too small. Turkey Buzzard, though still 'running, was out of the race Ter practical purposes. Meanwhile The Bare, galloping ihard towards the finish, had closed up on Shaun Spadah and these two raced neck and neck, It. looked like being a thrilling finish after all, even if it was a two-horse race now. But there was still another unexpected twist to come. Two fenees from home The Bare fell heavily, throwing his rider and owner, Harry Brown. Shaun Spaclah was thus left almost alone. Mr. Brown, obviously hurt, quickly scrambled back on to his horse and went on to the finish. The crowd cheered him home, for The Bore was favourite. But not until afterwards did they discover that he had ridden home with a broken collarbone sus- tained in the fall, which was caused by a rein breaking at the cri 4 ' 11 moment. In the end the chief honours went, as they should, to the Only horse that kept its feet through- out the race, with secondary hen- otirs to the rider of the fav- ourite. But many think ,the real hero of that "All fall down" National Was Turkey Buzzard, who came back to finish after three fall& Yet, officially, he Is 'deemed be obscurity heeanste he 1i: Sashed a, few yards behind the leader,s1 Binoculars For The Sportsman What almost all sportsmen want in their glasses is resolving power, which may be roughly defined as the ability to focus on details to identify a species, judge the size of a head, or to distinguish animals' tracks For general purpose, I use a 7 x 35 binocular because of its light weight and size. It answers for about 90 per cent of my ob- servations perfectly, but it is not sure for the identification of small birds beyond 75, yaid:s, nor will it surely tell a buck ,from doe at 400 yards. So, I often carry a 12 x 60 monocular in my rucksack, 'for long distance only. Yet it costs, weighs, and bulks less than my 7x35 glasses. It might pay the hunter of sheep and goats exclu- sively to select just one high- power glees; such as a 10x50, provided its bulk' and weight were not too much for continual carrying. But my combination suits me perfectly, Almost all of the best binocu- lars offered since World War it have the lenses coated with mag- nesium fuoride. I refer to the coating of all the surfaces of all lenses and prisms; not only the two exterior' lenses. Such coat- ing is always an advantage. It transmits a little more light, thus alightly increasing resolving power. To a• very large extent, it eliminates glare, or dazzle, when observing toward the sun, particularly it sunlight touches the objective lens. Coated lenses give a better rendition of colour. But it is not an absolute necessity, and one can sometimes pick up a pair of older best-make glasses at a re- duced price whic h, for most practical purposea, area` as, good as the coated 'ones. Field of view is the diameter of the circular view semi through the binocular, and 'at is expressed in" so many, feet at 1,000 yards. It depends largely on the magnification, a low-pow- er glass having a much wider field than one of higher magni- fication. A 7x35 typical binocular will have a field of about 375 feet at 1,000 yards. Wide field of view is a necessity with glasses to be used for 'watching athletic events in order to keep the objects or contestants cori- stantly in view. Glasses used for such. purposes should haVe a field of not less than 300 feet., It is not so necessary ,for long- range hunting, where a field .as %mall as 200 feet is not Objec- tionable. Most binectilart call be had with either central focusing or with individual focusing. With the former, the two telescopes are focused for distance tatietatraly by means of a focusing wheel that lies between the two. With the individual focus- ing glasses, each telescope must be focused individually by turn- ing the eye lens of the telescope. Thus with the eoliths' focus, you can focus the entire Ingres. anent instantly while it is held, at the eyes. With the inclepends eat focusing glasses, you must take the glasses away teeth your eyes and turn each eyepiece to the 'proper adjustment On the stale engraved on the eyepiece. It is teed that you ten Mena each telescope of the latter type for a Uniaetsal feats Of beef 100 yards; and titbit While Observing at that -or greater ,distances the glasses Will be in correct foci' 'arid will riot heed to be changed.

We have become so used to some kind of a "turn tip for the book" that it is a minor sensation if the favourite wins, One of the strangest of the series was the 1921 Grand National, Of the thirty-five start- ers only one completed the course without falling, Even, that one very nearly came a cropper, Only four horses finished and the rider of the favourite re- mounted to finish second, after breaking his collarbone. The final oddity was that every schoolchild in Lewes, Sus- sex, where the surprise 100-a winner, Shaun Spadah, was trained, was given an Easier present of a new shilling to cele- brate the victory. The rapidity with which horses. went down and out of the race stirred memories of the nursery game, "Ring o' roses, all fall clown." The race was farcical from the beginning. Slippery conditions caused horses to'temble like nine- pins at all the early jumps. Seven fell at the first fence and four more, at each of the next three, Among the three victims of Becher's. Brook was Turkey Buzzard ridden by an amateur, Capt. Bennet. But Capt. Bennet, knowing his mount was as strong as a lion, remounted and urged him on. Two fences later, how- ever, Turkey Buzzard lost - his looting again and once more the rider came off. Still he refused to admit de- feat and, 'remounting once more, set off in chase of the leaders. Evidently he felt that as so many horse's had come down already there was a chance that some of those in front of him would also drop out. He was right. A great cheer soon' preelahned that Turkey Buzzard, the horse that had fal- len twice, had gone to the front — and the race was not yet half over! But though so few animals were still surviving, they were keeping so close together that in these conditions a mishap to one could easily affect two or three others. This happened at the fence before the Water, Where one horse rolled over and brought down another, the fancied Loch Allen. It is probable that this acci- dent also unnerved Shaun Spa- dah, for he misjudged the jump and landed' on his knees. His head touched the ground, but his rider, F. B. Rees, managed to retain control and got him to his feet again. Coming into the racecourse first time round only seven were still standing, Turkey Buzzard, apparently unaffected by his two tumbles, was still in the lead, 'followed by Ali White,Fore- warned, Shaun Spacia; The Bore, Glencorrig and Loch Allen, who had been remounted and made up the, procession, though a long way behind. Loch Allen, however, was des- tined not to complete the race. First he refused at the fence' before the water., Though event- ually he was persuaded to get over, he clearly had had enough, for he came 'down at the Brook. Now the pace and the effects of the falls were beginning to tell on Turkey Buzzard, for going out into the country for the second time he 'faded and surrendered the lead to All White and Shaun Spadah. It seemed that the race would lie between tnese three, as the only others „, left, Fore- warned, The Bore and Glencor- rig, foamed a group a little way behind them. Then Glencorrig refused and not only put himself out of the race, but conceivably also • en- sured that the other two would not win. All White and Fore- warned ,canie down at the same fence, probably distracted by his AOENTIS.

CANADA, LTD. 54 Advance Road, Toronto 18, Ontario. ROger 6-7255 squirrel, a barking dog, and, once, a duck-billed platypus with an indescribable vocal manner. Miss Foray is the female voice on more than 100 Capital novelty disks. She has furnished the voice for a gamut of TV com- mercials that fun from, Schlitz and Budweiser beers to Je11-0, Dial soap, Helene Curtis, and Hormel frankfurters. Recently, she 'essayed the role of Clemen- tine the Cat in the new .Terry Lewis movie, "Visit to a Small Planet." Miss Foray, who is married to TV screenwriter Hobart Dono- van, has displayed a virtuoso talent during emergencies on TV. On "The Deputy," for ex- ample, the voice of a boy actor had to be chucked out when it was discovered after the' filming that he had a slight British ac- cent, an eccentricity that auto- matically made him persona non grata in a Western. Miss Foray was hauled in and made like an American boy. On a recent "Lar- amie" chapter, it turned out that a sexy actress hired for a part had a voice like Jack Benny's famous Maxwell, In again came -Miss Foray. On a "Rawhide" which was seen this season, an actress who owned a spectacular shape but an equally spectacular Brooklyn accent had to have her come - hither lines looped in by Miss Foray, who on this occasion unveiled one of her specialties— a contralto with a low, breathy tone. "I'm always getting „jobs when alley hire an actress who tries a phony Marilyn Monroe," noted Miss Foray in normal tones last week. "A sexy voice has to hold -a promise -- just like sex," Why producers box themselves into situations where they have toavail themselves of voice dub- bers is one of those mysteries of the entertainment business. Oc- casionally, however, a front- office playboy has been known to slide in his squeaky sweetie on an unsuspecting TV casting director. Understandably, Miss Foray doesn't mind at all, "I can make $1,000 a day behind the camera," she points out, "but only $200 a day playing one part in front of it." —From NEWS- WEEK. mere- dust ,and waterproof, but I think this difference is exag- gerated. When observation is to be con- fined almost exclusively to a Considerable distance, as h' mOttntain hunting, probably the individual focusing glasses are slightly suPeal9r, and certainly they are slightly cheaper. Iittt for observation at short distance,' particularly' for bird study, or for Woods hunting, where, you may have to change the range of your observing Of- ten, the Centre' focus glasses are much better, for they can be focused instantly'' while pentinu- Ally observing the subject, Regardless of the glasses used, sportsmen wish to observe very critically, and for this reason any binocular must be held steadily. A good way is to sit down and rest the elbows on the knees, or something solid such as the limb of a tree, a rock, or a tree stump. — By Col, Townsend Whelen, Associate Editor, Sports Afield, Smuggled Secret It was in the East — China -- that silk was first developed 4,000 years ago by one of, the Fanpresses. The story goes that after being jealously guarded in China the secret of silk, produc- tion was given to the world by a princess who married an In- dian prince in the year A.D. 419, and in her' head-dress smug- gled the eggs of the silkworm and the seeds of the trees which produced the leaves on which the worms fed. People driven from France by the loss of their religious rights in 1685 included skilled silk wea- vers who settled in Spitalfields, London. By 1700 silk weaving was one of England's most im- portant industries. It reached its 'highest prosperity in the first 'half of the nineteenth century, when the looms numbered 17,000.

Voice Bootlegger Is Kept Busy Take a 'situation like this: A TV producer Sits in his screening room in Hollywood, scanning the runback of a Western episode. On screen slithers a dark-eyed, voluptuous wigglework, w h e flutters her mascaraed lids at the hero, telegraphs a come - hither look, and says . . But what did she say? The producer Can't understand a word — the actress has a thick Span-. ish accent. Short of scrapping the playlet, the producer has but one choice: To call in a voice bootlegger. In eitactly this situation re- cently the producer— like scores of impresarios before him --- called in June Foray, a 90-pound redhead' in her 305, knoteri in Los Angeles as "Queen of the Voice Bootleggers."
