NEW CAMERA "SHOOTS"
FLYING PROJECTILES
When Army ballistics experts needed to photograph !
speeding rockets scientists at Bell Telephone Labora-
tories built the special "ribbon-frame' camera Their
experience came from making high speed cameras to
study tiny movements in telephone equipment parts
The new camera gets its name from the narrow slot
that exposes a ribbon of film at a speed of one ten-

wing rocket

research is helping to provide belter weapon- belter
equipment for war and careliine telephone service
