The photo was taken on location in the Great Colorado Desert near Indio, California. Jimmie was just curious to see what things look like on the ground glass of the camera (a bit unusual in shape, we're told, because it's a new French camera called the Camerette). New Faces Perhaps the new cover look prepared you for the new look you'll find throughout this issue: new type faces, new page format, new department headings, a new feature or two. Many people, including you readers, are responsible for specific changes — all designed to make the magazine more eye-catching, more readable, more useful, we hope. We want to give a very special word of credit and appreciation to the artist who designed the new headings for several of our departments: Harvey Frye, Supervisor of Graphic Arts at Indiana University's .Audiovisual Center. If he doesn't object, we expect to make use again of his generous talents. We hope all you readers noted the mailing envelope in which your January issue arrived. This is what many of you have asked for to keep your copies in good condition for annual binding and lifelong reference. For more about you and us as EdScreen begins its 33rd year of publication, see the editorial in its new and now regular location opposite the inside back cover.
