"Sh e was built in Holland forty- four years ago as a government pilot- schooner and saw nearly thirty years' se rvice on the North Sea, as Load- schooner 4," the young veteran of the sea related. "Then an Englishman bough t her .as a yacht and named her 'Texel. I bought her from him in 1933, christened her Yankee, and fi tted her out for world-cruising. No other yacht has gone around the world three tim es." In the deck house of the globe-trotting schooner "Yankee," Co pta in Johnson plots the course. On her third world-cruise the stout ship covered 40,000 nautical miles, visiting more than 100 different places The Yankee sailed from Gloucester, Massachusetts, for her third world- Gloucester, bound for Haiti, the 81- Quito, one of the oldest cities in cruise at 2 P.M. on Sunday, October ton Yankee sailed through the center South Ameri ca.

Time and again, the fish would flop into the sail, crash against the canoe, or even hit us in the stomach. The eeriness of the blazing torches and flame-lit sails made the scene one we will never forget." Another South Sea Island, called Taputeuea, boasted what Captain Johnson believes to be the largest outrigger canoe in the world. The over-all length was 96 feet, with feet extreme beam and feet water- line beam. The canoe had a 40-foot tree for an outrigger. The planking was of an inch thick and sown together edge to edge with coconut- fiber sennit. "With eighty people aboard, there was stacks of room

Why, we didn't even know t hat grindstones came that big .... But they do, as we found out a few weeks ago. We were at Kodak Park, well off the beaten path, looking for some of t he unusual activities and services about which you rarely hear. We encountered some surprising things- but to get back to those grindstones. Kodak Park requires an extraordi- nary job of knife grinding. The great knives, for example, which are em- ployed to cut paper- often 500 sheets at a slice-weigh as much as ninety pounds and stand higher than a man.

In the few years remaining him, years that should have seen the fulfillment of his fondest dreams for a great South American nation, he met with bitterness and disappointment. Hailed wherever he went and worshipped by the people as he was, Bolivar could not stem the riots of political dissension. Jealousy between the countries nullified any hope he may have entertained of uniting as one strong republic.

Why a Kodak lens " gets the picture": a point of light, an artificial "star," is shining through a Kodak lens from the end of a dark tunnel, 7 5 feet away. The size and shape of the star image formed by the lens-as seen through a 200-power microscope-determine its quality. At Hawk-Eye, even the simplest lens is tested on this principle, although this particular instrument is em- ployed for anastigmat lenses only. A final test after the lens has been mounted in the camera insures that it is in position to give the sharpest possible image on the film . It is such tests as these that assure the high quality of Eastman products.

To approach perfection they magnify errors: some camera parts are so tiny that they are strained, through a sieve, from the oil bath in which they are machined-in order to find them! How measure the accuracy of such a part? At the Camera Works, a "comparator" is called info action. This in- genious device magnifies the part up to 100 times, and projects it against a master chart. A variation which can be seen or measured, under this 100- fimes magnification, is cause for rejection. Typical, this, of the very high standards the Company has set for itself in the manufacture of each and every Kodak product.

Why a Kodak is much stronger than it needs to be: you can't see whether a piece of metal is stronger than any normal use demands, yet, that is true of all the metal parts in a Kodak. Before a Kodak is made, metallurgists test the tensile strength and compression strength of a variety of metals, select only those with a safety factor many times greater than required in normal han- dling. Samples of steel, for instance, are subjected to a pull of 45,000 pounds to the square inch. Six hundred different camera parts go through an ordeal by fire each day in the metallurgical division of the Camera Works Chemical Laboratory, to prove their worth. K · 0 D A K Page 9 s First 1n Perforznance and Value High Standards of Workmanship that Have Made the Eastman Name a Synonym for Highest Quality Split-hair accuracy: a camera part may be so tiny that it strains your eyesight to see it, yet it performs a vital function, and a variation in the size or shape will cut down the efficiency of the camera. A gear tooth, for example, is measured in fen-thousandths of an inch at the Camera Works. Here a gear cutter is being checked for split-hair accuracy. And, inciden- tally, did you know that there are 34 separate parts in a Baby , 237 in a Cine-Kodak? In the daily routine of producing all these precision-made parts, Camera Works uses nearly every kind of industrial material.

Opened and closed 1,000,000 times, yet show no wear: a " super-super" snapshot fan opens his camera perhaps a thousand tim es a year. Yet, at the Camera Works, camera bellows are opened and closed, opened and closed, by this fireless machine 1,000,000 times. The machine, adjustable for slow and rapid motion, gives the bellows a wear-and-tear fest that far exceeds any they would experience in actual use. Average fest is fen thousand op- erations, but some have been carried well beyond the million mark. This " life actuating" fest of bellows is typical of the laboratory testing every new model Kodak or Brownie must undergo.

Why a Kodak works in any climate: inside a " weather box" like this, and Brownies are subjected to the burning heat of the desert, or the steamy humid- ity of the African jungle, or the sub-zero cold of Little America. Eastman scientists get reports from key points all over the world, and reproduce the world's worst weather, to fest the ability of a camera mech- anism to operate perfectly-and of materials to " take it"-under extreme conditions. They have compiled a book of charts that show month-by-month variations of climate in every region under the sun. At the turn of a page, and then a few dials, they can blow hot or cold.

Kodak Trouble Shooters Take to the Skyways On Saturday, May !7th, the Eastman Kodak Stores in Boston received an urgent call for service from Nantucket. Something amiss with the photofinishing apparatus of an Eastman dealer there required immediate attention. As luck would have if, boats from the mainland were still on infrequent winter schedule and so Mr. Homeyer, manager of the Stores, asked Mr . Wiggin, an employee and licensed pilot, if he would ferry Mr . Ford of the Developing and Printing Department over by air. In no time at all, our Eastman trouble shooters were on the wing, landing at Nantucket in just an hour. Adjustments to the ailing apparatus were deftly made and soon afterwards, Messrs. Wiggin and Ford were heading toward Falmouth, on the mainland. There they refueled before returning to Easton. Total elapsed time-S hours. The picture of Nantucket Island, looking toward Great Point, was taken by Mr .
