...week Washington's alert Science Service, browsing among the patent files, discovered that in his long search for a Unified Field Theory the great mathematician had not forgotten the uses of photoelectric cells. Patent No. 2,058,562, it appeared, had been issued to Dr. Albert Einstein and Gustav Bucky. Manhattan X-ray researcher, for an automatic device to prevent unskilled photographers from under-or over-exposing their plates.* A photoelectric cell attached to the camera measures the quantity of illumination available, adjusts a screen of varying transparency so that the proper amount of light is admitted...

Although uneven in its quality, "Das Lied von der Erde" is certainly at least near-great and is well worth hearing for it is infrequently given. Mozart's Symphony in E flat...
