Robert Alley, vice-president of Alley Lumber Co., Downey, Calif., and a home movies fan, is giving a helping hand to the Los Angeles County Air Pollution Control District. Last March, reports the Highland Park News Herald, he installed a time-lapse movie camera in the office and trained it on, the yard's two huge silo incinerators. By a motor-driven reduction device, one picture is taken every minute while the incinerators are burning, and Alley has a full-color record of operation. Compared to the former, costly quarter-hourly log record of operations, one roll of movie film lasts eight working days. Employes, knowing the work is being checked every minute, are very careful in loading the burners to create a minimum of smoke.

Although operations keep the incinerators roaring eight hours a day, Alley reports the company has never received a single citation from APCD inspectors, and he credits the "camera detective." After October 1, however, they won't have to worry. Like the familiar, backyard incinerators, the lumberyard's burners are included in the county's ban on operation of single-chamber incinerators.
