"Pd like to help, but Pm just one person.” Do you really think God will accept that? Maybe you can't help others all by yourself. That’s no excuse for doing nothing. Join with others at your local synagogue or church. There’s plenty you can do together Example: In Wisconsin, one religious group set up a halfway house to help women parolees fit themselves back into society. The God we worship expects us to seek out those who need our help, and to help them. Start treating your brothers and sisters like brothers and sisters.

Tickets purchased early enough will be good for admittance to Saturday’s double header between A&M and Texas. THE BATTALION FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1975 Page 7 — Show ’em the big ones BRUCE L. SUBLETT Suppose you’re a real sportsman and you just turned that nine-pound sow bass back in the lake so she can spawn. Nobody will believe you caught one that big — unless you have pictures to prove it. Every sportsman should have a camera of some kind. Good photos can recreate a memorable trip, provide a record of fish landed or run unwanted guests out of the house (provided you show them the same pictures seven or eight times), times). Fem fencer gains spot in nationals Denise Gordon, A&M’s top woman fencer, qualified for the na tional competition by taking second place in women’s foil in the divi sional meet Saturday. Kevin Crowder, also from A&M, took fourth place in epee. It is not yet known whether he will qualify for Nationals. The National meet will he held in June in Los Angeles.

In fact, anyone but a pro photographer who takes expen sive gear to the lake is asking for trouble. The ideal sportsman s camera is a small, lightweight 35 mm that can take a lot of abuse. The instant load 126 cameras just aren’t solid enough and don’t really deliver top quality pictures. Anything bigger than 35 mm is too bulky. The electric eye 35 mm rangefin ders are fine cameras for outdoor use. They are very compact, and a reasonably good one only runs about $100. A provision for chang ing lenses is nice, but the rangefin ders with fixed lenses are quite a bit less expensive. Compact rangefin ders also make a handy second cam era in other situations. If you already have an inter changeable lens single lens reflex camera, you can use it on the lakes if you take some precautions. I car ry my Nikon F2 in a soft canvas case, with extra lenses in hard plas tic cases. A bulky gadget bag only gets in the way, hut the light can vas bag can be carried easily. The biggest enemies of a camera in the outdoors are dust, water, and vibration. After use, the cam era should be cleaned thoroughly on the outside, and the inside should be blown out by a gentle stream of dry air. I carry a soft cloth in my bag to wipe any water that gets on my camera off as soon as it hits. Moisture inside a lens can be the very devil to get out. Vibration can destroy or cripple a camera in a very short time. I carried one lens in the floor of an aluminum boat for several hours once. When I tried to use it, it wouldn’t focus. The fine vibration set up by the motor had loosened every screw in the lens.

To keep bulk down, I carry only two lenses on fishing trips. The one getting the most use is the 35 mm semi-wide angle. It delivers well framed photos at boat-length dis tances and fairly impressive scenics. The second lens I carry is a 105 mm short telephoto. It gives 2X magnification, enough to fill the frame with a boat-size object at medium distance or to punch up a sunrise or sunset. The reason I don’t carry a longer telephoto is that a boat is not a steady enough platform to shoot from. The least amount of motion is magnified by the longer focal lengths. As for film, a fast one is a good overall choice in both color and black-and-white. Kodak Tri-X for black-and-white and High Speed Ektachrome for color are my choices. These fast films let me shoot hand held in low early morn ing and late evening light, when the most dramatic picture opportuni ties happen. Don t get caught up in technicali ties when you shoot a fishing or hunting trip. The eamera, is only as good as the photographer. Next time you catch old big or bag a trophy buck, haul out your trusty picture-clicker and fire away. The thrill lasts a lot longer. Only thing is, it makes lying a hell of a lot harder to get away with.
