Very much worthwhile, however, are the views of Leathernecks in training. The Marines have class, and it shows at every click of the camera shutter-in the way they handle their grunting green tanks, the symphonic grace of their close-order drill, the impressive torso power of their mass setting-up exercises. But it shows best in one chance shot of a nameless Marine, at liberty, decked out in blue & scarlet, sauntering along with the easy, uncoiled assurance of a fighting man who knows no one can lick...
...greatest achievement in photography since George Eastman pioneered and introduced the first black and white roll film in 1889-" With this demure panchromatic blush Eastman Kodak Co. last week announced a new, simple film with which any dub shutter-snapper can obtain full color prints instead of black-&-whites from his negatives.

Unable to take a picture except in broad sunlight, he constructed "interiors" out of doors with the aid of curtains and furniture...
