PREFACE
This 1943 edition of the Educational Film Catalog, a revision of the
1939 edition, is a selected list containing about 2800 films. This is the
third edition, the first appearing in 1936 and the second in 1939. This edi-
tion replaces all volumes and supplements which have preceded it. As in
previous editions of the Catalog, the selection of films included is not
confined to classroom films but includes those which are available for all
non-theatrical uses, making this Catalog valuable to clubs, churches, li-
braries, army and navy training camps and various educational institutions
as well as to schools.
Revision. This edition has been thoroly revised. All films included
in the 1939 edition and its supplements were reconsidered, by our collabo-
rators. Many films included in the previous edition have been omitted
from this edition because they are no longer of enough value to be in-
cluded in a well selected list. All films which are no longer available have
been dropped. Important new films have been added.
Distributors. The short lines following most of the entries give addi-
tional sources for the films, usually rental sources. Prices for which the
film may be rented are given when that information is readily secured.
When a film is obtainable from 15 or more dealers, a note indicating its
wide distribution is given. This information is constantly changing and
even tho considerable efifort has been made to have these rental sources
as complete as possible, there may be some omissions.
History. The first edition of this Catalog was published in 1936.
For years before that the Company had been making surveys and inquiries
to learn whether or not such a catalog was really needed. One of the
first outsiders to approach us on the subject was Mr. Abraham Krasker
of the Boston University. For the next five years others made similar
suggestions. Finally a questionnaire regarding the form and general
policies was submitted to educators and librarians and in 1935 editorial
work for the first Catalog was begun.
Form of Catalog. This catalog follows the form of other members
of the Standard Catalog Series with an alphabetical title and subject
index, and a classified list.
1. Index. The index is placed first for convenience of the users.
This includes in one alphabet, the titles, subjects and, if important, the
authors and actors of the films included. The classification number is
given so that by referring to Part 2 full information about the film may
be found. Subjects have been assigned freely because educators have
expressed their belief that even a few feet of film on a specific subject is
valuable. The subjects given are those with which the film deals — not
the particular courses in school in which they may be used. These often
overlap.
2. Classified list. The films are classified according to the Dewey
Decimal classification. In this section is given the full information for
each film: title, length, width, whether sound or silent, whether on in-
flammable or safety stock, sale or rental prices, date of release or copy-
right date, producer or authorized distributor, class number, additional
rental sources, descriptive annotation, critical reviews, grading and a
teacher's guide, if any. Films considered excellent are starred ; those rated
outstanding are double-starred. Each film is annotated in order to make
the selection of the proper film easier. Indication of the source is given
at the end of each quoted note. "Advisory committee" indicates a review
made by an Advisory Committee on the Use of Motion Pictures of
which Mark A. May is the Chairman. Most of the grading indicated is
from information given by our collaborators when voting on the films to
be included and while the films have been used successfully at the school
grades indicated they may be found useful in other grades as well.
Selection. This selected list is based on the advice of many educa-
tors, on a comparison of selected lists of films and on consultation with
producers and others interested in non-theatrical films. Tentative lists of
titles of films are voted on by 37 collaborators and on the basis of their
votes, the films are selected for inclusion in this Catalog. For this new
edition our collaborators reconsidered every title in the 1939 edition and
the 1940-1941 supplement of the Educational Film Catalog. In addition
they have voted each quarter of 1942 on lists of several hundred new
films. The final selection represents the composite opinion of educators
who are using the motion picture in their work. No one of these can be
held personally responsible for the inclusion or exclusion of any film as
the final decision based on these expressions of opinion was made by the
editors.
Even tho there is more interest in the non-theatrical film than there
was when the Catalog was compiled in 1936, and there are many com-
mittees reviewing these films, there are doubltless some excellent films
which are omitted from the Catalog because they have not been widely
enough distributed to be voted on favorably. Some industrial films made
for advertising purposes have been included when the votes of our col-
laborators indicated that they are useful. Those preferring not to use
such film.s will be able to recognize them by the producer's name. When
that does not serve as an indication a note is given as to whether or not
the advertising might be considered objectionable.
Films available on 3Smm inflammable stock only were omitted. In
this edition there are fewer 35mm films included because the demand for
them has dropped very sharply in the past few years. Films available for
theatrical use only are omitted.
No attempt has been made to report on the physical condition of the
films listed other than general notes from collaborators as to excellence
of photography or sound recording.
Acknowledgments. The editors of The H. W. Wilson Company
are very grateful to the many educators and visual instruction experts
who gave of both their time and advice so generously. A list of those
who have regularly checked lists of films and have helped us in many
vi
ways is given following this preface. To all of these and to all who have
sent us reviews our most sincere thanks.
We also wish to thank the producers and distributors who cooperate
with us so consistently in keeping us informed of their activities and to
many of them who have most courteously sent reviewing copies of films
to us.
It is planned to keep this Catalog up to date by quarterly supplements
thruout the year and by a new edition annually.

"This film is not intended to be used as a
pedagogical picture. It is entirely satirical in its
treatment of library rules and the red tape
Involved. It is suggested as having limited

"This film is a rapid, though detailed,
analysis of the newspaper business from the
standpoint of vocational guidance. The film
begins with scenes in a newspaper office and
then shows the varied lives of newspaper
reporters. Then it takes up the processes of
editing, setting up, and printing the paper.
"Next the film discusses the women's
departments, and then it outlines one by one
the departments of sports, finance, society,
critical writing, columnists, editorial writers,
political writers, and feature writers. A short
sequence tells of the work of the country
newspaper editor, who must be somewhat of
a jack-of-all-trades.
"Finally, the film analyzes general abil-
ities needed for newspaper work in all
branches. A good film; effective in doing the
work for which it was intended. . . The film
is of excellent technical quality." Georgia
"An excellent film on vocational guidance
for students of high school and college ages.
Should be very valuable for those who wish
to enter journalism." California
This film is in so many of the state col-
lege and university film libraries that we sug-

paper is written, printed, and circulated ought
to be of interest to every school. Because the
scenario, photography, and editing are ex-

A Jewish boy is subjected to petty perse-
cution in school. To overcome this situation
a boys' club is formed
When the club is being organized the boys
object to admitting the Jew to membership,
but can find no objection to the reasoning of
their leader — "Why keep fellows out just be-
cause of their race? Why not find out if they
are good fellows?"
On a club hike Max, the Jewish boy,
proves himself. As respect and friendship for
Max develop the club admits boys of other
races — a Japanese and a Negro. The boys
raise money for the school clothing fund. In
recognition of their progress, the Y.M.C.A.
awards the club a charter. At the close of the
charter service the boys repeat the newly
selected club motto: "If any boy in our school
needs a friend, he will have as many friends
as there are members in our club"

From Luke 15:11-32
"This picture begins with a scene of a
group of people listening to Jesus tell the
parable of the Prodigal Son. The film con-
tinues as a dramatic but faithful presentation
of the parable. The scenes of 'riotious living'
are presented with such restraint that one Is
inclined to wonder how the son spent all his
money. He buys new clothes, flings money to
a dancing girl (modestly clothed) and ap-
parently spends the rest of his money on food
and drink. Both the acting and voices of the
characters are excellent. The sets and cos-
tumes appear reasonably authentic.
"This picture may be used with any group
to which the parable would ordinarily be
taught. Its use will contribute greatly to the
realistic qualities of the story so that it will
have an impact on the audience which the story
alone, familiar as it is, could not possibly have.
It will prove exceptionally valuable in pro-
moting a discussion of the nature of God's
love as Jesus represented it in the character
of the prodigal's father. A study guide for
use with the film is available for 25c." Int.

A brief drama based on Jesus' parable.
The film opens in a street in Jerusalem, near a
gate in the city, where a seller of baskets and
his daughter call their wares. A man ap-
proaches them and demands payment on a
debt. The basket seller, unable to pay, is
threatened. Later, the man to whom the
money was owed, strips his own house of all
luxuries, preparatory to a visit from a rich
man to whom he owes money. The rich man
arrives, sees the apparent poverty, and for-
gives and releases the debtor
The debtor, in turn, goes to the basket
seller, and when money is refused him, beats
the elderly man as his daughter looks on. The
rich man, passing, sees the beating, commands
his servants to bind the man, and take him
away to prison

"The picture was produced in England
[in 1934]. It was filmed in the slum regions
of the east end of London. The story centers
around an English middle class family, restless
and irritable because it lacks any satisfying
goal in life. Members of the family attend an
evangelistic service and listen to the message
of the famous English missioner, Lax of Poplar.
He preaches on the Mastership of Jesus. , . He
relates several incidents in his ministry, each
of which is dramatized as a part of the picture.
After the service the family return home and
come to the conclusion that they too can
find a way out of their restlessness and dissat-
isfaction by accepting the great Master.
"For American audiences the film is some-
what handicapped by English accent. It was
not always easy for the reviewer to follow the
conversational episodes. However the evange-
listic message of the preacher is strong and
fine; his manner is natural and wholesome, and
his voice is clearly recorded. Though the pic-
ture lacks something in artistry, the total im-
pression is good. It will be useful and profitable
m any Sunday evening service, especially
where an evangelistic appeal is desired." Int.

"Goes behind the scenes of the actual
coronation and establishes a thorough back-
ground in the visualist's mind. Introductory
scenes show Vatican City, the Swiss Guards,
the late Pope Pius XI, his death and funeral,
arrival of the American Cardinals and election
of the new Pope. Next scenes give Cardinal
Pacelli's background, showing his visits to
France, Hungary and America, and his acclaim
by the populace everywhere. The second half
of the film is devoted entirely to the impressive
coronation itself. Artful photography has
caught the beauty and pageantry of the throngs
assembled to witness the spectacle, the corona-
tion processional, the ceremony in St. Peter's
Cathedral and finally the crowning of Pope
Pius XH on the world famous basilica, held
there for the first time since 1870." School

Produced under the direction of R. F.

It is a review of the American way
"This grandiose presentation of American
material development since 1880 stresses that
only in America is such development possible
because of the so called 'Ameja«an System.'
It makes for good Americanism'^but appears a
little far fetched to this critic. The success and
stability of our government might have been
due to that intangible pioneer spirit so evident
in a high percentage of our population. How-

A school boy leaves his classes; through

with rats, he homeward wends his way. There
in a "band box house," three rooms, one above

of the country to take to the road seeking work
and security. Jobs are not to be had, and at-
tempts on the part of the wanderers to estab-
lish themselves are met with forceful eviction
Brought before the court because of an
innocent involvement in a hold-up, one of the
boys accuses the judge of committing him to
Underwriters Laboratories in analyzing the
contents of product; and the method followed
by a well-administered orphan asylum in
selectmg parents suitable for adopting children
are all factually described and portrayed.

Re-creates the forming and adopting of
the first 10 amendments, or the Bill of Rights,
to the Constitution. Shows the influence of
James Madison at this time. Madison, George
Washington, Benjamin Franklin, John Ran-
dolph, Alexander Hamilton and John Jay make
this historic time very real
"In dramatizing the purpose and develop-
ment of the series of constitutional amend-
ments known as the Bill of Rights, the pro-
ducers claim in their opening title to have taken
some dramatist's license, but state that all
facts are actual, and that the dialogue is based
upon correspondence of the characters por-
trayed.
"The result is a motion picture whose
chief handicap is lack of motion, which makes
it less stimulating than it might have been.
However, the voices are unusually distinct, the
costuming and background natural and au-
thentic, and the continuity clear. This film
should be of real value in junior and senior
high school history and civics classes, and
would be suitable for auditorium showings on
programs connected with patriotic occasions."

Describes the function of police officers
in general and follows a typical city patrol-
man through one of his regular shifts of duty.
In due course, the use of motorcycles and
patrol cars with two-way radio communication
is demonstrated and explained. Lessons in
pedestrian and vehicular traffic safety are de-
veloped, along with the role of the policeman in
rescue work and the apprehension of a speed-
ing driver
"This is a fairly good film for elementary
use in connection with safety, social studies,
and vocational guidance. It was noted that in
one or two instances the patrolman himself
failed to observe the best safety practices. The
film is within the experiences of the elementary
child, and it should contribute to the formation
of favorable attitudes toward policemen. Pho-

A Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production avail-

"After explaining that there is a criminal
population of 3,400,000 persons in the United
States, Judge Marshall, who has been intro-
duced by the Crime Reporter, says that most
crimes are committed by youths under 21 years
of age. He claims that they are not all from
the under-privileged classes, many being the
product of parental neglect
"A dramatization follows of the case of
four boys who, when their parents show insuf-
ficient interest in them, turn to crime. The
father of one of the quartet happily offers to
take him fishing, and this is the turning point
in the boy's life. He does not go back to the
gang
"The others are involved in a series of
petty thefts, finally securing a revolver. A
hold-up is planned, the fourth boy urged to
join them. He refuses, and finally confesses
to his father who tells the father of the boy
with the gun. The police are notified and ap-
pear on the scene just after the three have
held up a restaurant and shot the owner. One
of the boys is killed, the other two captured.
"The judge sentences them to long prison
terms, but severely reproves the parents for
not adequately supervising their children.

"Three boys — two of them brothers of a
petty burglar who is in love with the sister
of the third — are sent to the reformatory at
Paz. With no opportunities for creative work,
the boys are constantly in mischief.
"When an opportunity arises, the three
boys make good their escape, but in doing so
Chacho is injured badly. Although aware of
the punishment that awaits them, his com-
rades carry Chacho back to the prison where
medical aid is available.
"Shortly thereafter, a new director is placed
in charge of Paz Reformatory. Under his in-
fluence, the honor system is inaugurated. He
puts the idle hands of the inmates to work
at rebuilding the old institution and provides
other recreational activities to keep their minds
actively occupied." Group discussion guide
"I think the picture an excellent one for
school use, particularly in connection with the
social studies. It is very well cast and I think
it deals with a universal human problem —
the effect of environment on youth and the
ways of dealing with it." Edna Hays in Group
discussion guide
"A suitable picture for senior high school
Spanish students. I feel that the early re-
formatory scenes, where the inmates are
treated so cruelly, are almost too violent.
However, the latter scenes picturing an opposite
situation justify this. The action gives the
idea of the story so clearly that the student
should be able to enrich his vocabulary by asso-
ciating words with action." Ellen Fish in

Offers the theory that since no two individ-

whatever they need to fully develop their po-
tentialities by the school system. The school
should compensate those who come from poor
environments and supplement those who come
from good, making all into happier, healthier,
more useful citizens
Should be of great interest to thinking
parents as well as to teachers and to teachers

A complete teachers guide is supplied with
the film; also five regular size lantern slides
which contain all of the mathematical data for
calculation of the weights of objects as shown
in the film
A unique feature of the film is that regular
provision is made, by "Stop" titles appropriate-
ly inserted in the film for stopping the film
for brief intervals to allow for discussions from
the class and for the instructor to make calcu-
lations on the board
"An excellent teaching instrument since it
can reach more students in an hour than is
done by the present method of showing the
techniques to small groups of students. Of
interest to teachers of mathematics who em-
phasize the theory of measure in their classes."

"Here we have a description of some of
the many -wa^ys in which rivers serve man-
kind. Gravel is taken from a river bed for
concrete; a river is damned to aid navigation
and supply power and irrigation. The Columbia
River, which makes Portland a tideless seaport
110 miles from the sea, is seen as an important
travel way for salmon.
"Striking views of the salmon running at
spawning time, with leaping waterfalls, are
shown. Weirs and nets catch many for can-
ning, but sportsmen fish with hook and line.
Finally, there are rivers carrying commercial
and pleasure boats, running turbines for fac-
tories and for lighting, while water is diverted
from a river to make a desert bloom. With

"This is an ambitious film, attempting to
present so much information in a short space
of time that it would be impossible for a
student to assimilate many of the ideas at a
single showing. Its best use would be at the
conclusion of a series of lectures in elementary
genetics, to summarise the facts which had
been given.
"Recent research has advanced our knowl-
edge of cytology so that while the theory em-
bodied in the diagram was plausible twenty
years ago, the present evidence is strongly
against it. The weakest point of the film,
however, is the commentary. Possibly the ad-

great deal to modify many of the statements

fertility needs more explanation, since it is
not made clear that what is shown is a hypo-

tioned in the printed leaflet, as is also the

"Badgers, both adult and young, despite

range not only in the open but also within
their earths.
"We watch the young ones at play and
the grown-ups following well-worn tracks in
search of moles, feeling the ground for earth-
worms and leather-jackets, raiding a bees' re-
serve of honey, also scaring a hen, taking
chicken food and sucking an egg or two, but
never attacking a bird, even a young one.
"A bee sting on his sensitive snout sends
Brock to the edge of a pool where he meets
a second badger, possibly in similar plight.
Wild fruits, such as raspberries, are sought
out in the autumn, while fat is being laid
down preparatory to a long, inactive period.
Our last view of this bear-like mammal is in
his cosy bed of bracken at the onset of win-

highly for it is full of interest from start to
finish and the commentary is just full enough
and deliberate enough to satisfy the viewer.

"At the outset, as at the end, life for a
goldfish in an unshaded globular glass bowl
is contrasted with the life of fish in a real
pond. Stress is laid on the significance of
vegetation both in decay, when attacked by
myriads of bacteria, yielding food for minute,
lowly animals, especially protozoa, and also
in vigorous life when bubbles of oxygen stream
upward through the water.
"Many of the larger soft-bodied animals,
such as worms, fleas, and insect larvae, are
semi-transparent .so that the workings of the
food tracts, full of plant d6bris or lesser ani-
mals, can be observed. We watch a minnow
in calculated pursuit of darting water fleas
and a stickleback seeking worms to satisfy
his need of fuel.

children, firstly, because of references to

While many marine animals move about
mdependently, they are often associated in
communities. The open sea, rocky shores,
the intertidal zone where there is periodic im-
mersion and impact of waves, tide pools,
sheltered bays, docks and bridges, estuaries,
and mud flats, harbor groups of characteristic
invertebrates. In this color film a large mussel
shell supports a marine community of: brachi-
opods, tunicates, annelids, barnacles, echino-
derms, coelenterates; and hermit crab is sur-
mounted by a dense bryozoan colony. Spider

Made with the cooperation of the Scottish
Marine Biological Station, Millport, this film
is intended to be supplementary to 'The Earth-
worm' (listed below) and to show common
relatives of the earthworm actively engaged in
their natural pursuits
"The distinctive methods of locomotion
of a number of true worms in their natural
habitats are excellently portrayed. Oligo-
chaetae are represented by Lumbricus and
Tubifex. In the Polychaeta, we see the free-
living Nereis and Nephthys, the paddleworm,
Phyllodoce, the burrowing lug-worm, Arenicola,
and the tube-dwelling Sabella and Spirula. The
second main group of Annelida is represented
by Hirudinea, or leeches; the Hirudo, or medi-
cinal leech, and the Lesser Pond Leech being
shown.
"One species is shown in the Trochosphere
or larval stage as a free-swimming organism
moving with the aid of its cilia. Throughout,
attention is drawn to adaptive structures in
action.

of mere worms in their several haunts. . .

"By means of garden scenes in which a
hungry bird figures, soil excavations, trans-

sented. The ciliary action in the excretory

long before the process is actually mentioned,
so perfectly is it portrayed.
"The reciprocal nature of fertilisation be-

worms within the cocoon is explicitly intro-

"This is an excellent film on ants, their
life and habits. I believe that it is one of the
very finest photographically." H.V.K.
"The commentary is explicit and well
selected. One observing the film critically
doubts some of the statements made in re-
gard to the battle staged between the two
warring colonies. However, this does not seri-
ously impair the usefulness of the film.
"The film was first prepared for general
theatrical use and was released for that pur-
pose in April, 1936. Because of the general
nature, certain features of the typical class-
room film — detailed study, animated diagrams,
etc. — are lacking. The film is nevertheless ex-
cellent in its appreciative aspects. This film
may be used for its nature study aspects, for
its ecological aspects, for illustrating the life
history of ants, and for the study of their so-
cial organization.
"The photography is truly remarkable, it
is not only clear but is possessed of real beauty.
The film presents the story of the busy life

"This film stands out above all others on
the subject of penguins. In the Edinburgh Zoo
these birds appear to lead a very natural life,
even succeeding in rearing their young, and
thus afford excellent material for a serious
study of this kind. The photography is very
good and covers a great number of aspects of
the birds' behaviour, and the inclusion of a
few shots of the Antarctic at the beginning of
the film is a useful addition.
"The under-water sequences in slow mo-

masterly, resulting in a logically arranged film
of great interest and education value.

The nurse first arranges the tub of water,
the linen, and loosens the bedding. The pa-
tient's knees are flexed, rubber sheet and
bath blanket are put on the bed. The patient's
feet are lifted and the sheet, blankets, etc., are
pulled under them. His feet are put in the tub,
the hot water is brought in and the tempera-
ture of the water in the tub taken. Hot water
is poured around the edge of the tub and the
temperature of the water taken again — 115 de-
grees
At the end, the feet are dried, the rubber
sheet and bath blanket are removed from the
bed. A hot water bag is placed under the
patient's feet and the covers are tucked in.

Shows nurses at work in many different
Jobs — in operating rooms, as X-ray helpers,
as school nurses and in various visiting nurs-

hospitals of large industrial plants which call
for more than average training
The more highly trained nurse can find
work in the field of pediatrics. The narration
explains the advantages of nursing and goes
into detailed analysis of the qualifications and
requirements necessary to be successful in the
field of nursing
Not only a very well presented vocational
film but also a very timely one

"The two films 'Blood' [listed abovej and

and composition of the blood and the complete
process of circulation. The explanations are
simple and clear, and the various devices em-
ployed throughout the films to illustrate the

The technique used is, in fact, the outstanding
feature of tiie films. Diagrams, models, labor-

all used to simplify the explanations as much
as possible.
"A cartoon showing people arriving in
crowds from buses and passing through a turn-

of the tongue of the frog, Rana pipiens, to
stimulation of small nerves with a micro-elec-

"Several cinematic devices are used to
present a detailed exposition of the kidneys and
their functions. First, an analogy is drawn
between machines which use selective devices
and the selective processes by which wastes
are eliminated in the kidneys. An animated
diagram is next used to give an enlarged view
of the kidneys, and to reveal the processes of
transfer and filtration.
"Laboratory experiments show the proper-
ties of the semi -permeable membranes which
function in the kidneys to allow wastes to pass
but restrict passage of food materials. Content
analysis charts compare glomerular fluid to
urine. Next, anesthetized animals are used to
study the factors affecting rate of urine forma-
tion, including blood sugar content and exter-
nal temperature. As the film ends the narrator
tells us that the function of the kidneys Is
comparable to that of a gyroscope in that they
maintain a balance between the blood and body
tissue.
"This is an unusually well-organized
presentation of the function of the kidneys.
Several different cinematic techniques are used
to advantage, and the film is technically excel-
lent in all respects. Suitable for classroom use

Shows natural situations in which posture
is important, selected from the everyday life
of the girl or young woman. Sometimes the
element of appearance is stressed, as at a for-
mal tea, or at the dinner table. In other situa-
tions, there is added emphasis on conserving
energy and avoiding strain, as, for instance,
in picking up a small child from the floor.
How to sit down and get up, how to walk up
and down stairs, and how to carry a suitcase
are a few of the points shown
There is also a short section in which

Alois Havrilla then tells the story of how
the Army and Navy guard their ranks against
tuberculosis. He shows that it is equally im-
portant to protect the men in overalls who are
producing the planes, the ships, the guns, the
jeeps
But other armies of workers are necessary
also to support those engaged in actual war
production. All must be protected against the
enemy. Even the boys and girls in college, the
child at home, the grandmother, must not be
endangered; all are participants in this war,
directly or indirectly
Mass production has produced a mass mi-
gration. That means congestion, problems of
housing, nutrition, recreation, medical care
and so on. Some of the things now being done
to meet these problems are depicted
Much of the material was supplied by gov-
ernment agencies including the Office of pro-
duction management and the United States

show, for this particular purpose, the President

granted by the White House

"This color film uses titles, photography,

on foods and diet, Frances Stern, is introduced.
She talks about foods and food selection. A
table setting- is shown; then growing vege-
tables, as the narrator explains that proteins
are needed for growth and repair in the body.
Foods valuable as protein sources are shown.
"Then it is explained that carbohydrates
and fats furnish the body's fuel; their sources
are shown. Next calcium, builder of the body's
foundations, with its sources, and food iron,
for red blood. Here a chart indicates the
circulatory system, drawing an analogy to ir-
rigation systems used in agriculture. Finally,
the vitamins and some of their sources are
enumerated. Frances Stern concludes the film
with brief summarizing remarks.
"A good film for classes in health, home
economics, science and guidance. Should have
some uses in the higher elementary grades,
major worth in junior and senior high, and
some value in college classes. It is also suited
for adult cooking schools, P.-T.-A.'s and the

"Beautiful to look at, but the enumeration
of foods is too quick to be retained. Besides,
the order in which the foods appear under

"In this film a story treatment explains
the importance to good health of employing
cooking procedures which preserve the vitamins
present in foods, emphasizing the use of the
Westinghouse electric range in food prepa-
ration. In the first part of the film two families
are compared. The first one presents a happy
scene at the dinner table. But for the second
family, the scene is less joyful because no one
is hungry. In explaining the reasons for this,
the film takes us to a college classroom where
an instructor lectures on vitamins and the
various ways by which some of them may be
destroyed through improper cooking. . . The
values of various new features found in the
Westinghouse electric ranges are emphasized
as the wife in the first home demonstrates her
'Vitaminized' cooking for the wife of the
second family. The latter decides to purchase a
new range.
"A fairly good film for home economics,
biology, health, and general science classes. . .
Should be useful also for P.-T.-A. and similar

upon the values to be derived from electric
cookery; the sponsor's name is mentioned only

The photography, to use Hollywood, is superb

technical and pedagogical viewpoint.

frequency of home accidents and of the num-
ber of persons thus injured each year. Then
one family's campaign to eliminate accidents
in their home is shown in detail. Many safety
devices, including those for the garage, work-
shop, stairs, playroom, bedroom, and kitchen
are illustrated.
"The film's message is thus presented in a
positive manner showing how accidents may
be anticipated and prevented through careful
safety arrangements." Educational screen
"This film covers the subject matter very
completely. Excellent as a guide to a safety
program in the classroom." California

ANOTHER TO CONQUER. 22min 16
of this gaiety a little girl enters to ask the
Padre to come quickly for her mother is dying.
The hilarious tempo of the story changes to
one of sadness — the mother of a happy house-
hold quietly slips away
A year passes and Consuelo, older daugh-
ter who now mothers the family causes her
father deep worry for she has the sam.e symp-
toms which marked her mother's decline. Sr
Lopez is afraid of doctors, uninformed about
sanatoria and burdened with the belief that
tuberculosis is inherited. Consuelo, herself,
secretly dreads her doom. But the wise Padre
discovers the household's distress and per-
suades them to see the doctor
Then follow scenes in the doctor's oflace,
the X-ray room and finally the sanatorium.
In all these experiences Lopez learns much
about tuberculosis from the doctor and nurse
and he in turn becomes a missionary of tuber-
culosis prevention among his friends. Not to
be overlooked is Pedro, an upstanding young
cabellero. His serenade "Ciolito Lindo" sung
beneath his sweetheart's sanatorium window
would cure worse things than tuberculosis.
Even the watchman who discovers Pedro be-
hind a bush, gradually weakens and vibrates

"A simple, dramatic and deeply moving
story which serves to point out the dangers
of neglecting the treatment of tuberculosis
in its many stages.
"It depicts a family of southern Negroes,
in which the mother succumbs to an advanced
form of tuberculosis due to her failure to con-
sult a doctor, and to her faith in superstitious
'cures.' The daughter, upon advice from the
minister, consults a doctor and discovers that
she has developed the disease. . . However,
with proper rest and care she is eventually
cured. Her brother . . . submits to a physical
examination and is told that his body was
able to withstand the disease.
"Throughout this story, the beautiful
musical accompaniment of the Tuskegee Choir
is heard singing Negro spirituals. This en-
hances to a considerable degree the effective-

"Demonstrates the nature, transmission,
diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary tuber-
culosis. An opening sequence explains that
sunlight and fresh air are enemies of the germ,
but many city dwellers are constantly exposed
to possible infection.
"Marv Smith, a slim, attractive high

tuberculin tests with the other students, and
her test shows that she has sustained no tuber-
culosis infection. But soon afterward, Mary's
tubercular aunt comes to live in the Smith
home. Several possible means of transmitting
her infection are shown. The following se-
quence of the film reveals the development
of the tuberculosis infection inside Mary's
lungs. But this time infection is walled off by
defensive cells and confined to inactivity in a
small cavity.
"A few years elapse. Mary, now out of
school, is working. Dieting for slimness, she
is getting too little to eat, too little rest and
too much excitement. Animation and X-ray
pictures reveal the orocesses of reinfection and
cavity formation. After several months, Mary
begins to show signs of the disease and has a
medical examination. She goes to a sanatori-
um, where she gets fresh air, correct diet, and
complete rest. In the case of the aunt, pneu-
mothorax treatment is given.

An MGM production available only to

"Pictures first an advancing shadow cover-
ing the map of Europe. From the plague of
smallpox, sixty million persons died in one
century for there was no remedy but charms
and superstitions.
"In England, Dr. Jenner is a country
doctor. Before a pest house, guarded by sol-
diers, Jenner meets a widow whose child is
inside. He enters to help, but the child is dead.
He walks through the town to the dairy whose
workers, strangely, are immune, although
sometimes affected by the mild disease of cow-
pox. While there, he notes that one of the
town boys, whose hand had been cut, had an
attack of cowpox. And, Jenner ponders, the
boy had probably held the infected hand of his
dairymaid sweetheart and thus unknowingly
saved himself from smallpox.
"Later, in the doctor's home, the widow
fears for the health of her remaining child but
is assured by the doctor that it is only stomach
ache. Jenner determines to give the child cow-
pox and to do it by scratching the skin. He
therefore takes the disease from the dairy-
maid's skin and vaccinates the child. Jenner
offers free vaccinations to the townspeople, but
is distrusted and his home is stoned. His
announcement to the doctors of London is
ridiculed, and he returns home. But the
plagrue returns and many dead are again
carried away.
"To test his theory of immunity, he injects
smallpox germa into the widow's boy, pre-
viously vaccinated, and then keeps the boy
under his own roof to note the results. . . On
the tenth day the mother tells where her son
is. A group of neighbors march in a body to
the doctor's home, determined to investigate.
But Dr Jenner appears in the doorway, the
widow's healthy boy by his side.
"The shadow of the plague withdraws
from the map. Recommended for general sci-
ence classes in the junior and senior high
school. Also of value for college courses in
public health and health education." Advisory

"Photography, animation and sound ef-

waves are briefly explained through a pebble-
in-water analogy. Animation reveals the tym-
panic membrane and the ossicles or ear bones,
with the functions of both.
"Next the Eustachean tube is diagrammed
and its function of pressure equalization ex-
plained. A complete ear diagram explains the
major parts of the ear. The inner ear is shown
in detail, and the function of the cochlea with
its spiral membrane and accompanying nerves
is explained by further animation.
"The film closes with the thought that the
ear is a delicate and coiriplicated mechanical
device which translates air vibrations into
nerve impulses. This is a good presentation of
the ear structure and the working of its mech-
anism. Photography and sound are good,

mounting her bike and starting off. Her
father arrives home and while he and the
mother stand in the doorway discussing their

down the street oblivious to an approaching
car which honks at her to no avail. Doris
is thrown from her bike and although not hurt
is of course somewhat shaken
She and her parents discuss what has
happened and her mother begins to think that
Doris does not hear properly. The mother goes
to school to discuss this problem with the
teacher and is invited to watch the procedure
of a hearing test which is about to be con-

aid — the Western Electric audiphone
AVith the help of her hearing device Doris
is able to perform confidently and well. Her
report shows her improvement
We go back to the train where our old

Meeting a friend Mr X learns of a test

The results of the test start Mr X thinking — ^he
thinks of the telephones standing everywhere
ready for constant service in all fields of busi-
ness nad industry. He wonders what sort of
voice his own company has. He makes a busi-
ness call to a company with a very poor voice
and when his secretary assures him that he
sometimes sounds just as bad he determines
to give his company a better representation
In the next few days he becomes more
and more voice conscious. The radio taught
him a convincing lesson. He makes many dis-
coveries of thoughtless telephone habits
Then comes a reorganization of the tele-
phone habits of his employees. More thought-
less, careless treatment of calls is demon-
strated and then a better way of handling these
same calls is suggested

Produced by Wilding
"An explanation of the prmciples of fric-
tion and lubrication is followed by a complete
explanation of the lubrication of gasoline en-
gines. The film begins with a series of simple
demonstrations explaining rolling, solid and
fluid friction. Cohesion between solids and
adhesion between solids and liquids are il-
lustrated, and lubrication is defined as the
process of substituting fluid friction for solid
friction. Solid friction is further explained in
greatly enlarged views representing two sur-
faces in contact.
"Following scenes mention the viscosity
of lubricants.
"A cut-away automobile engine reveals
the working of the valves and pistons. The
use of an oil cushion in the bearings and
the working of the piston rings are shown
in animation. Oils of excessively low and
high viscosities are contrasted, and their de-
fects noted. Next the film explains how
lubricants are supplied to the points in the
engine where they are needed.
"The hand pump and the splash systems
are shown in the early cars in which they
were used. . . The pump-and-splash system
and the full-pressure system, both in modern
use, are explained by diagrams. Several types
of oil pumps are shown.
"A very good film for use in shop courses
in automotive mechanics and for driving in-
struction classes; should be valuable also in
general science and physics classes, at the

One "of eight reels making up the Har-
bor Activities Series [which] is one of the finest
series of films this previewer has seen. The
individual films . . . are separate units and
can be used separately. However the eight
make a fine series of films on a very important
topic that is passed over too lightly in our
schools
This [reel] takes a large freighter through
the entire process (of drydocking]. . . The ves-
sel floats in. She is centered on blocks on the
dock and the pontoons are raised above the
water level — lifting the vessel high and dry on
the drydock
As the ship is raised, men in small boats
scrub the entire bottom of the ship to remove
barnacles and sea-growth. Now she is ready
to be painted. We note that hulls are first
painted black to prevent rusting, then with a
red paint which tends to kill sea-growth.
Men tighten the rivets. Welders wear gog-
gles and metal masks. Their work is
explained. They straighten the steel keel
plate. When everything is 'ship shape," the
manager of the dock gives the order through
his megaphone to lower the ship. Within an
hour-and-a-half the huge ship is safely afloat
and sails majestically on her way

"By means of a trip from Los Angeles
to San Francisco, the operation of the air-
lines is illustrated. A business man needs
certain papers from his Los Angeles oflfice
so that he can catch the Hawaiian Clipper.
It is 11 a.m. and the Clipper leaves at 2 p.m.
He phones his secretary in Los Angeles, who
catches a plane and brings the papers to him
just as the Clipper takes off.
"Operation of the airports. Duties of the
pilot, co-pilot, and hostess of the airliner are
shown. The instrument boards of the airliner
are explained. The picture ends with the
Clipper taking off over the Pacific." Arizona
"The terminology in the narration may
be considered too difficult for second or third
grade children, but they are becoming familiar
with these terms from their general conver-
sations and from their studies of the subject,
therefore a little preparation before running
the film will permit them to keep the thread
of explanation. The 'Air liner' is not a spon-
sored film. Neither United Airlines nor Pan-
American contributed anything to the filming
of this subject, except to make their apparatus
available for photographing. The cost of
production was borne entirely by Donavin
Miller Productions." Producer
"Not only is the picture informative, fine
in detail, and authentic in subject matter, but
it is so interestingly photographed, so well
edited, and carries such an excellent balance
of story and suspense, that it maintains in-
terest throughout. Truly, I may say that it is
so far ahead of the average educational film
that it is in a class by itself." Alice E. Field

"Many of the important and famous bal-

Ruth Nicolls, Wiley Post, Sir Charles Kingsford-
Smith, Amelia Earhart and Howard Hughes are
re- flown
Animated maps of all the continents and
hemispheres reveal the net-work of 100 estab-

struction of today's airplane, whether it is a
mighty transport, a bomber, or a comet-like
pursuit plane is the result of the smooth-work-

who represent 16,000,000 hours of flying is ex-
plained. Steel-cutting shears, routers, riveters,
giant presses are seen in action. The part
X- Rays', electro chemical baths and baking

The first part of the film demonstrates
with excellent action shots the principles of
gliding
Laboratory tests on full sized airplanes
are made in huge wind tunnels. Scale models
in small wind tunnels are used to study flight
conditions
We see the controls of an airplane as
hands and feet work them. Clear demonstra-
tions by actual shots and animated diagrams
are given of the work of the rudder, the ele-
vators, and the stabilizer. That ailerons cause
the plane to bank at the turns is also demon-
strated
"The mysteries of flying are quickly dis-

appropriately used to explain those principles
difficult of comprehension. . . A study of the

"An unusually beautiful and well-made
color film on the -sport of gliding. The film
opens witli views of gulls in flight as the
narrator tells of man's age-old dreams, of bird-
like flight and of the early gliders which led
to the development of motorized airplanes.
Then the development of motorized aircraft is
pictured in a rapid succession of scenes.
"But some men still dreamed of flying
like the birds, without noisy and dirty motors
... In a home workshop, some of the steps in
the construction of a sailplane are shown.
Then the narrator explains how sailplanes
can fly without motor power. We see a sail-
plane being towed into the air by an automo-
bile, and then the use of thermal and contour
currents in keeping aloft is explained.
"A sailplane is assembled preparatory to
flight. The camera flies with the plane as it
rises high in the air. The pilot releases the
tow rope and heads for the sea edge, where
he locates a contour current rising over the
seashore cliffs which enables him to cruise
at leisure up and down the shore, out over the
sea and over the land. The craft banks and
turns, under perfect control of the pilot.
"An excellent film for general showings
and for flight training classes, boys' air-
plane clubs, and similar uses. Although the
fllm is not of a specialized educational nature,
it should be valuable for stimulating interest
In general science, in physics, and transporta-
tion, as well as for exploratory classes at
the beginning of units. Color, sound, and nar-
ration are excellent, and the fact that the
camera was attached to the plane for the aerial
scenes is an innovation which adds greatly
to the interest, value and realism of the film
by transmitting sen.sations similar to those
actually encountered in flight to the persons
viewing the fllm." Don White in Educational

"This film uses photography and narra-

vocational field for boys. First the develop-
ment of automobiles is sketched from the
early models, and the narrator explains that
our increased use of autos in modern life has
resulted in a greater need for men experienced
in the work of repairing and servicing them.
"Then various specialized shop jobs are
shown, with the explanation that many service
men in time become specialists since general
service training is a basic requirement for all
specialized jobs.
"The values to him of alertness and con-
stant study toward progress on the job are
stressed, and the student who is interested in
automotive service as a vocation is advised
to lay a strong foundation of school courses
in physics, mathematics, mechanical drawing
and shop work. The opportunities in manage-
ment are sketched, and the film closes with a
suggestion of the rewards which a young man
may gain by qualifying himself for work in the
automotive service field.
"A good film. . . Although the considerable
amount of material included necessitates a
somewhat rapid tempo, the information given
is well-balanced and accurate . . . Photography
and sound are excellent." Educational screen
"Although these films at no time men-

When a flipoant traffic violator is brought
before him a judge outlines for the spectators
In the court what such driving and such an
attitude might very well bring to pass. His
story shows that this careless young man
might easily find himself badly maimed and
responsible for the death of a loved one. It
is a strong plea for careful courteous driv-
ing
"The seriousness of careless driving is
forcefully illustrated. A most convincing
dramatization on safety. Highly dramatized,

Jimmy starts on a motor trip to his grand-

motorist in a hurry to keep an appointment.
A moment's carelessness — a crash — shrieking

consequences of a moment's carelessness, is
shaken with remorse
Time passes. We find the family in re-

The opening scene is in a juvenile traffic
court set up to promote safe bicycle riding.
A boy is charged with riding another on the
crossbar of his bike. He pleads guilty. He is
sentenced and must attend a safety meeting
to be held by messenger boys. At that meet-
ing many safety rules are given
The next case in the traffic court is that
of a girl who pleads guilty to riding a bicycle
not in good repair causing a minor accident.
She is told to visit the local man who rents
bikes and from him she learns much about
caring for a bicycle and of the joy to be had in
riding safely
Back in the juvenile court a third case is
considered — that of a boy guilty of reckless
riding in traffic. He is told to spend time
with the local police officer. For him the simi-
larities of riding a bike and of driving a car
safely are pointed out by the officer and many
wise words of counsel are given him

recorded it on celluloid: farm-factories of the
fields, monster machines uprooting trees, trac-

speed, gigantic wheat combines threshing end-
less fields of grain, rural workers standing in
dreary relief lines, land made useless by ero-

Bill shows his fellow farmers, by means
of motion pictures, the benefits other farmers
obtain by marketing their crops cooperatively.
Jake, ultra-conservative, offers many objec-
tions, but is finally won over to the idea of
starting a local association on a small scale.
The growing and cooperative marketing of
such crops as celery, lettuce, potatoes, cher-
ries, cranberries, mushrooms, peaches, apples,
and citrus fruits are shown. "Believe it or
not" scenes show unusual methods of farming
"A fine film for those people who are
going into the farming profession. The dra-
matized sections of it are very conducive
to getting and holding the attention of an
audience. The film gives a good presentation
of cooperatives and their uses." Robert A.

Contrasting fences of today with those
of our forefathers, the film depicts some of
the crude barriers made of stone, stumps and
rails. This historical theme is carried on by
showing some of the early wire fences and
primitive methods of farming
The mining of iron ore, its transporta-
tion from the mines to the steel plant, its
conversion into iron in huge blast furnaces,
refinement into steel in roaring open hearth
furnaces, rolling of the steel and drawing into
wire, electro-galvanizing of the wire for sub-
sequent weaving into farm fence— scenes show-
ing all of these and intermediate steps in
the making of woven wire fence present a
story of one of the world's greatest industries
The manufacture of other steel products,
such as fence posts, barbed wire, nails, staples
and bale ties also is illustrated. Proper and
approved methods of fence erection are demon-
strated in detail. Such operations as installa-
tion of both wood and steel corner post as-
semblies, preparations of the fence for at-
taching to line posts and the final stretching
of the fence are covered

In the old days land was plentiful but
as newscomers arrived and land became scarce
conflicts arose. In those days it was first
come first served. Such reckless use of grazing
lands made for future barren wastes. Then
came the forest service with its new order
of range management. Stockmen and rangers
were brought to understand each other and
work together for their common good. We see
round-ups and the moving of cattle from home
ranges to national forest lands. There are
shots of the branding and inoculation against
disease. Stragglers and weaklings are given
a lift in a truck
Arrived at their summer home the herd
is counted and turned out to graze. Rangers
make inspections and we go with one on his
tour. He consults the hired rider and they
compare notes. Given a chance to recuperate
from grazing the homelands yield crops of hay
At the first sign of bad weather the cattle
begin to drift back home and when snow ap-
pears they really move. Now they are off to
market. A quick overview of the improvements
to the towns brought about by this better
management and a shot of our narrator ends

This is a Soil conservation service film.
As beautiful scenes of the countryside unfold
the commentator tells us that much of
America's oldest farming land is in the North-
east. The serious soil erosion situation is
frequently taken care of by terracing. We
learn how terracing is done, its advantages and
see land so cultivated
Terracing is used successfully for growing
potatoes, tobacco, truck farming and for fruit
culture. Cover crops are planted and when
turned under add fertility to the soil. It is
necessary to inspect the terraces regularly and
to keep the channels of the outlets clear. Nar-
ration was especially clear. It was given by
M. S. Joyce
"Informative picture showing construc-
tion and uses of terraces and other erosion
control measures as applied to northeastern

vinces Casey that h6 should plant windbreaks.
Here is a map of the U.S. locating forest proj-
ects is shown. We are shown how people
blown about a city street seek shelter close to
buildings. In a laboratory a man demonstrates
with a small model, an electric fan and a pin-
wheel that a planting can protect the ground
Casey gives it a try. Sturdy seedlings
from forest nurseries are planted and carefully
cultivated. This shelter belt develops so satis-
factorily that others are planted. By the time
the first belt is five years old some of the
trees can be cut to permit others to grow
better. These provide good fence posts. The
efficiency of the belts is shown and also how
they may be used for family picnics. We see the
improvement in the soil and the crops

A camper's match starts last year's dead

The trees burst into flame. The fire may be
beaten out in a week. But it will take a decade
to get a new forest going
Before the new growth gets under way,
spring thaw brings the muddy river that ran
along the forest's edge to flood height. Held
by no tree or grass roots, the soil is torn away
by the rushing water. And the river leaps the
bank and covers the valley
Because of a match, a town is flooded

Designed primarily for FFA and 4-H Club
audiences, the theme of the picture is built
around "If I were a young, ambitious farm boy
wanting to raise some pigs on my own but
with no money to get started, how could I
get a start, how could I successfully manage
the project and what are some of the benefits
to be obtained?"
"This is a story of pig club activities and
the activities of young men in this phase of
their life in agriculture. A very fine film, well
filmed in Kodachrome with fair sound. While
this film shows only the Duroc breed of hogs,
and thus it might be considered a commercial
film, this fact in no way detracts from the
film." H. L. K.

. . . Shows the formation of the allantois and
limb buds, the rapid growth of the whole em-

taken at various stages of growth, from one
hour to 7-8 months.
"This is a very valuable film which shoxild

is well photographed, except for a small part at
the beginning of the second reel, where the

presented clearly, though some of the less easily
understood details, such as the origin of the
mesoderm and head-fold, are not fully ex-

the frequent change of scale. But these are
minor criticisms.
"The greater part of the film is admirable

the development of the blood circulation, the

and he is shown as he looks for a mouse.
"Several views of the kitten asleep appear
as he says that he can sleep anywhere as long
as he is not bothered. Kitten's-eye views re-
veal how big and tall the household furniture
appears to a little kitten. Fluffy explains that
he is usually hungry. . . He doesn't like baths,
but he keeps himself neat and clean. His san-
itary facilities consist of a pan and a news-
paper. He says that it hurts when he is picked
up by the nape of the neck; his mistress dem-
ontrates the proper way of holding him.
"Views of his paws and claws accompany
an explanation that he needs a log to scratch,
instead of the furniture. He says that he won't
scratch when you play with him, unless you
play roughly. . . When he gets into intentional
mi.schief, he is spanked. . . He doesn't care
about toys. . . He likes simple things such as
a ball on a string. He exhibits his training

Production of milk on a small farm is
contrasted with production on a large farm.
A small herd of Holsteins is driven home by
a boy and a dog. The cows are milked and
the milk taken to the dairy where it is strained
and cooled. Then the milk cans are collected
from the farm
In the second unit we see a large herd in
summer pasture, and then in a winter barn.
Automatic milkers are shown and the milk
is prepared for market
Unit 3 shows how cans of milk are emptied
into large vats and pasteurized in a modern
dairy. Clean bottles are filled and capped
by automatic machinery and the milk shipped
to the city in refrigerator and tank cars

dream for the common man to enjoy the fruits
of our country's resources and production. A
brief sequence on industrial production for de-

the nation's farm program the farmers them-
selves have been allowed to plan for adjusted
production to provide plenty without waste.
"A contrast is drawn between rich soil and

one of our means of defense. The contribution

of temporary soldiers to serve the common de-

for tires, uniforms and tents; hides for boots

"A non- commercial film for use in com-
mercial education is an event to be hailed,
and encouraged. The picture . . . presents
very vividly the importance of the typewriter
in modern life, the many ways in which it can
be used creatively, and the technique of oper-
ating it efficiently. Ample footage is given to
the demonstration aspects of the film, and
skillful use is made of the brief, montage-lilie
effect for giving an orientation. Children in
the elementary grades are seen learning to
manipulate this important modern tool, and it
is indeed interesting to see the skill with which
fifth graders carry on typing.
"Interestingly enough, the film does not
stress the 'typing for its own sake' which is
often the case, but rather the importance of
mastering this skill to facilitate written ex-
pression, whether it be a housewife, a minister,
a reporter, or a stenographer. The film presents
clearly the time-saving elements in typing,
and the need for learning to use the typewriter
properly regardless of the ultimate end to be
achieved. The photography and the editing

with views of laboratory apparatus as the nar-

fabrics are demonstrated in a dramatized skit.
Fire -retarding agents, useful for women's

"To make rayon, cellulose sheets are

mill, the Nylon thread is knitted into women's

line. The Luclte plastic ... Is demonstrated.
We also see furniture and other household
articles made of this and other plastics. The
film ends with scenes of girl models in their
synthetic dress and using synthetic furniture,
as the commentator emphasizes the value of
chemistry to our life.
"An excellent film for use in chemistry

for social science classes, and should be very
effective in general showings, at the junior high
level and above. Of limited value also in ele-

el-Jh-sh-adult Guide
It is snowing — but inside a house a coal
fire keeps things cozy. A boy opens a book
titled "Story of coal" and then the film pro-
ceeds to tell the story
In an impressionistic way it shows how the
earth was in a molten state millions and mil-
lions of years ago and how it then began to
solidify causing buckling or the forming of
mountains and valleys. Jungles of giant trees
grew up. An animated diagram shows the
work of the sun on growing things. Then we
have lightning, rain and even a hurricane
We see the decay that takes place in
swampy land and the surf pounding against the
shore. All of these are shown to have helped
in forming peat beds and later coal. The way
in which thick layers of matter were formed
is clearly shown and under magnification a
lump of coal shows the same layer construction.
The pages of the book are turned and we read
"Coal — where it is found." On another page
we see a map which indicates where coal Is
found in the United States
The pages turn to consider "Coal min-
ing." The story carries us down a shaft and
operations within the mine are shown. After
being carefully gone over and washed the coal
is loaded on to freight cars

First we see some of the old methods used

process as it is carried on today. Canes grow-
ing. We see the light fluff in which the seeds
are hidden as a man plants in seed trays.
The grasslike sprouts are observed. These are
transplanted several times. Each bud sprouts
and makes a new cane and we see these canes
planted in the fields. In the fall they are cut
above the ground and new canes permitted to
form from the roots
We see the men and women at work and
some of the modern machinery used. The cane
is carted off. Then we follow it thru the
refinery, see it bagged, the bags stitched and
dropped on to a conveyor — our sugar is on the
way to the grocery store. Rapid shots illus-
trating the uses of sugar follow — for sweetening
coffee, decorating cakes, banana splits, candies,

"Subsequent scenes show how oil wells are
drilled and how, the well once under control,

"Pinal scenes show in animation how the

"The film does a rather good job of giving

are placed in water warmed by the sun and
kept immersed by weights tied to the end of

then taken from the water and spread over the

Most of the mill-workers we see are girls.
They draw the warp and create the designs to
decorate the finished material. The finished
linen is taken from the factory into the sun-

to the exact white or cream shade required
In the factory, ancient ways give place to

The film deals with old problems in the
dress industry and new ways of meeting them.
Legislative action and cooperative efforts of
employers and employees are represented as
the effective measures responsible for the bet-
ter wages and the short-hour schedule
In contrast to such progress are the
sweatshop practices featured in the film as
still prevailing in some places. A tenement
scene illustrates how factory work is sent into
the home to be done by the family
Other problems characteristic of the
clothing industry, such as seasonal unemploy-
ment, chiseling, and the speed-up system, are
stressed as requiring, for solution, the efforts
of all concerned
The role of the Women's Bureau in in-
vestigating conditions and formulating stand-
ards also is pictured
"Very biased — useful for discussion of
trade unions in older classes." Collaborator

"By far the finest documentary film thus
far produced in the United States. . . It demon-
strates conclusively that the documentary film
can be developed to the heights of a signifi-
cant art form. . . It was photographed and
directed by Ralph Steiner and Willard Van
Dyke, two outstanding artist-photographers.
"Every shot in the film is conceived and
executed with all the resources of the fine
photographer. Line, dark-and-light arrange-
ments, and use of filters to bring out textures
and tones, make each scene a delight to be-
hold.
"The theme, as conceived by Lewis Mum-
ford, is stated in the foreword: 'Year by year
our cities grow more complex and less fit
for living. The age of rebuilding is here. We
must remould our old cities and build new
cominunities better suited to our needs. . .'
"The film itself is in five sections. First,
the New England village. . . Then comes the
'Industrial City — City of Smoke' . . . Part
three shows the 'Metropolis — Men into Steel.'
. . . Next we see 'The Highway — The Endless
City* . . . Finally we see 'The Green City,'
which shows the ideal city for living. It is in
the last portion of the film that we see what
can be done with city planning. . . For beauty
of photography, for breath-taking motion pic-
tures, and for excellence in editing, 'The City'
should be seen by all interested in the film as

As Jerry passed the local Manson fac-
tory, a crowd was gathered outside. He
stopped to see "the fun." Someone on a soap-
box was shouting "down with this — and down
with that" and then a stone was thrown
through the factory window. Jerry would have
gotten into the brawl that followed, but Mike,
a policeman and friend of the boy's grand-
father, took him home in "protective custody"
After a stroll Gramp and Jerry sat down
on the City Hall steps to chat. The old man
knew the town v/hen it was just a "vacant
lot." He recalled the time when Manson
came to the little settlement seeking a factory
site. He saw the factory constructed — and the
town grow up around it. He told Jerry how
every man, woman and child has a stake in
the success of that factory. Jerry learned
some American fundamentals and was grateful
"Actors in this film greatly increase stu-
dent interest in the story of a small town
and the influence of a factory to this com-
munity. Grandfather, after discovering his
grandson to be participating in a protest
against the factory, relates the history of the
factory, and tries to show how the income of
this plant has made possible much of the life
that today exists in the community. Film
should be most stimulating for introduction

The first part of our film leads us through
the quiet and sleepy little town to the Notre
Dame de Chartres with its two belfries so
entirely different in style. There are many
statues and groups carved by great sculptors
whose names now are not known. We set;
Christ in a procession, his apostles, the people
and the martyrs, the patriarchs and the proph-
ets, as well as episodes in the life of Our
Saviour and the Virgin Mary, accompanied by
music specially composed and sung by a choir
The second part conducts us through the
interior of the cathedral. In the radiant light
coming from the stained glass windows we
see the carved groups incrusted in the stone
corners around the choir, representing the life
of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary, executed
by the master sculptors of the XV and XVIII

In the third part of the film we come to
the cathedral's chapel — the Chapel of Our Lady
of the Pilar — or chapel of the celebrated Black
Virgin. Gounod's "Ave Maria" is now heard.
The sacred "golden hearts" hearts hanging in
the Madonna's chapel, offered by the faithful,
shine. To their luster is added the flickering
lights of hundreds of candles which fill the
Virgin's chapel. The narration is in English
"May be useful in giving an impression
of the architecture of the Cathedral of Chartres.
and the use of religious symbolism in statuary
and windows. The photography and music
in combination will probably be quite effective
in creating a religious mood common to Gothic
Cathedrals.
"It is an interesting study in the inter-
relation of music and architecture. There is
very little motion in the film. The photogra-
phy is good from the viewpoint of composition,
though it is quite evident that lighting condi-
tions in the Cathedral were poor. It will prob-
ably be used with great success at the high

Basic tools used in plaster sculpture are
shown. He chops with his hatchet. Tooth
chisels are used for putting in the features.
The flat chisel is used to carve out the details.
A coarse rasp rounds out the shape and tends
to remove the chisel marks. The hand chisel

Several sketches precede the final draw-

On smooth plaques of modeling clay, three
times as large as the finished medal, Mrs.
Fraser then sketches in the outlines of her

model, deftly she builds up the relief with tiny
rolls and balls of clay. With delicate touches
of the finger- tips the artist little by little

must then be thoroughly cleaned and left
outdoors to weather for several months be-

which presses it into a solid mass. Working
is necessary to remove air pockets. Wedging.
Clay is carefully centered on the wheel after
which the basic step is the shaping of a cone

wheel, the processes of centering, shaping the
bottom, lifting the sides, and shaping and
finishing the vessel are shown
The vase is carefully lifted off the wheel
and left to dry in the air. It is then fired in
the kiln; when cool, the vase is dipped in the
glaze preparation and again baked. The final
shot shows the completed vase
"The technique of modeling a vase on a
foot-powered wheel is admirably shown. Silent
titles are unnecessary and were not used, so
excellent is the close-up photography that re-

foot, and few tools.
"Reaction of secondary students to this

Since the middle ages master craftsmen
have been making glass windows such as we
are first shown. These examples are in color.
An artist is at work designing such windows.
Full size "cartoons" are made. Cut lines are
placed on the "cartoon." Colors and panes of
glass are selected with great care. The glass
is cut to conform to the paper pattern. Details
of the faces, etc. are painted in. Melted wax
is applied and the pieces of glass are thus held
temporarily in place. Final foliage detail is
added. The wax is removed and the painted
pieces are fired
Grooved leading is stretched. Pins hold
the glass and lead until the soldering is com-
pleted. The joints of the leading are soldered.
Cement is scrubbed into the grooves between
the lead and the glass. Polishing is done with
a wire brush. Then we have more examples
of windows

The whole process from the original
sketch to the final print is shown. The artist
who illustrates the technique of drypoint is
Mr. Frederick G. Hall, of the Guild of Boston
Artists, best known for his etchings of Old
World houses and people
To make quite plain the means by which
the various characteristic tones of drypoint
are produced, he makes a small plate il-
lustrating the specialized uses of the individu-
al tools. Then, on a larger plate, with dry-
point needle, diainond point, graver, and
roulette Mr. Hall builds up the portrait, which
he has transferred to the plate from the ori-
ginal sketch, by minute ploughing of the
copper
The artist then inks the plate thoroughly
and puts it through his hand press

Supervised by Henry P. Rossiter, Cura-

At the request of the Museum of Fine
Arts, the widely-known artist Frank W. Ben-
son lent his cooperation for this production
A brief historical and explanatory resume
at the opening of the film displays etchings by
various masters, past and present, reproduced
from original prints in the Museum
The artist begins by transferring a pencil
sketch by pressure to the coated and smoked
surface of a copper plate. Then, guided by
the faintly visible lines, Mr. Benson's delicate
needle cuts through the coating, thus exposing
the copper along the lines of the drawing.
When the hundreds of lines which compose an
etching are all exposed, the artist floods his
plate with acid to etch them into the copper.
He then cleans his plate, inks it, and pulls
a proof

"Produced in cooperation with the Re-

Company, this film tells the story of man's
efforts down through the ages to record his
activities, and shows that modern photography
is the culmination of all such efforts. The
role of photography in recording not only
events of personal significance but also mat-
ters of national interest is shown. The film
takes its audience on a trip through the East-
man plant where research facilities and manu-
facturing processes in the making of photo-
graphic materials are shown in some detail."

"With poor basic continuity, this film is
further handicapped educationally by rapid
and excessive montage, dissolves, wipes, and
similar 'modern' technology. Punctuated with
advertising, the film attempts to show the
place of controlled machinery and research in
Eastman plants. No history of photography."

"This film was designed to show the

The commentator, with the aid of diagrams,
explains the photographic process. Diagram-
matic drawings of silver-bromide crystals are
shown and we are told of the chemical reac-
tion that occurs when light falls upon them.
There are experiments illustrating what occurs
when the crystals are given exposures of dif-

store the latent image.
"The following sequence deals with the
different chemicals used in the formation of
the developer, and the fixing bath. A com-
parison is drawn between the 'dark room' op-

equipped laboratories. The film closes showing
a positive print being made from a negative.

Produced by R.K.O. Pathe
" 'Abstractions' is a most unusual and
interesting- departure from the usual run of
films available to schools in which an attempt
is made to relate visual form and motion to
music. Abstract forms and images first play
on the screen with music well suited to the
mood; then follows a cameraman-artist's con-
cept of the spirit of machines as interpreted
by close-up shots of details of moving ma-
chines— pulsating pistons to the throb of jazz,
swinging parts to swing, gears, round, square
and oval — the pace of machines reflected in the
pace of jazz. Following this, the derivation of
unusual textile designs from African jungle
life is shown, still accompanied by appropriate
music. ^ ,
"At a review exhibition at Teachers Col-
lege, Columbia University, a group of teachers
expressed definite approval of the film for use
in schools. Several in the review audience
found that they, themselves, experienced a
concrete understanding for the first time of
the concept of interpretative music. . . Would
be of particular value to the creative and im-
aginative teacher of art or music. And it
should be observed that its success would un-
doubtedly depend more than the usual film on
adequate interpretation by the teacher. . . As-
sembled from theatrical short subjects origi-
nally produced by Pathe. . . Photography,
sound and direction are excellent." Donald

"The story of the writing of the French

serious historical inaccuracy. It assumes that
the Marseillaise, written in 1792, inspired the

tack on the Palace of Tuileries in 1792 which
followed tlie events portrayed in the beginning

"In 1811 Francis Gruber the village school
teacher of Oberville in the Tyrolean Alps, and
his close friend the village priest. Father
Joseph Mohr, witnessed the romance of Ann
Brebder, daughter of a rich inn-keeper, and
Louis the Village carpenter. Ann's father, a
patriotic Tyrolean, objected to Louis courting
his daughter, because Louis' father had fought
in Napoleon's army when the Tyrol had been
guarded by the French and regarded him as
the son of a traitor.
"Although her father disinherited and
denied her Ann and Louis were married by
Father Mohr. A son was born. Just before
Christmas in 1818 their home was destroyed
by a snow avalanche in the Alps. Coming to
her father's inn the night before Christmas,
he refused to admit her.
"Ann and Louis and the baby went to a
neighbor's for the night and placed their Infant
in a stable, as there was no other place. . .
Inspired by the touching plight of the couple,
the victims of prejudice, Father Mohr wrote
the immortal lyrics of the hymn, 'Silent Night,
Holy Night.'
"The next day he had his friend Francis
Gruber, the teacher, set the lovely lyrics to
music and on Christmas night introduced it
for the first time at Christmas mass. . . I
recommend this film for any group." J.K.W.

wise it seems hackneyed and amateurish."

Information given has not been recently
verified by producer
Produced by J. C. de Cavaignac, Paris,
France in 1937. Sound on the 35 print is in
English, on the 16 it is French. Awarded the
grand prize at the Paris exposition
"The photography is most fascinating and
unusual. Such intimate shots as the hands
of the artisan setting the sound post, the name
and date of the instrument shown through
one of the 'F' holes, all help make the picture
an artistic experience for the observer.
"The commentary is in French which
should make it of particular interest to French
departments but because of the logical method
of handling of material in the film, it will be
equally intelligible to all students with the
addition of a few remarks by an instructor
either before or during the performance.
"Should be valuable for classes in music,
French, social studies, wood shop and art. It
should have a rather general appeal among
audiences both in and out of school." Nation's
schools.
"In substance, the purpose of the film
is to show something of the romance and
historical background in the making of the
violin and related instruments. In general,
the photography is very commendable. The
story is told in an interesting and artistic
manner. It shows the various kinds of wood
used in the construction of string instru-
ments, and where this wood is obtained.
"The scenes showing the cutting of the
various part.s of the instruments, and tools
used in construction as well as workmen
gluing, fitting, varnishing, and setting up the
instruments are very well organized. The ad-
dition of an English translation or a series
of informative titles would make this film
more effective for American schools.
"The selections used for the greater part
of the film as musical background are good.
It is the reviewers' opinion, however, that the
playing of Jacques Thibaud at the end of the
film is too extended and is uninteresting
photographically." Scholastic

Presented by International educational

Back in 1600 B.C. Egypt used shadow pic-
tures. Then Leonardo da Vinci happened ac-
cidently on a camera of mirrors, which he later
improved. In 1640 A.D. Kircher invented a
magic lantern. Then came the urge to add
movement and we see a comic figure which
was used. In 1804 in England Dr Rodet dem-
onstrated persistence of vision. In 1835 Pla-
teau in Belgium added his contribution and in
France in 1850 Daguerre invented the photo-
graphic wet plate
In 1860 Colman Sellers in Philadelphia il-
lustrated synthetic motion by photographing
poses and then Edward Luydrid demonstrated
action by instantaneous photographs. In New
Jersey in 1886 Thomas A. Edison built his first
moving picture machine. In 1889 at Rochester,
George Eastman invented flexible celluloid film
base. In 1890 Edison demonstrated his first
movie talkie. In 1893 we had the world's first
motion picture studio — the "Black Maria"
Examples of pictures made on the old
cylinder machine are given. There follows a
sort of rapid kaleidoscopic viewing of films
progressing thru the years. Then we see the
mutoscope, an early rival of the Edison kin-
ectoscope
Chalk talks follow, then a portion of a
film made in 1906 which was the first animated
cartoon. Diving is seen at regular speed and
at slow motion. A parade gives us fast mo-
tion. We have next the microscopic filming
of the eye of a fly taken from one of the sci-
entific films by Louis Tolhurst. We are given
an example of an old silent film. Then in
1928 came sound and we are given an exam-
ple employing most of the sounds we have
become accustomed to hearing — talking, sing-
ing, whistles blowing, bands playing, etc
A portion of a cartoon is given next. In
1934 sound was improved. We have the voice
of Irene Dunne. Then as the commentator
summarizes a little we have views inside
churches, meteors falling, etc

"This film makes plain to all who see it
the mechanical electrical and visual principles
through v.'hich modern talking movie films
are made possible. The pictured story traces
the production of a Hollywood feature release
from the unperforated raw film to the eventual
shipment of 16mm reduction sound prints in

ment
"This film offers a clear, vivid, extremely
compact presentation of the mechanical, elec-
trical and visual principles behind modern
talking movie films. It illustrates 'persistence
of vision,' the momentary retention of images
within the eye which alone makes possible the
illusion of motion on the screen.
"The part played by each successive ma-
chine— perforator, camera, developing machine,
splicer, printer, projector — is then made clear.
The recording of sound on the film and its re-
production are portrayed by animated draw-
ings . . . and by showing an actual image of
the sound track of the voice explaining how
sound reproduction takes place.
"A particularly full teachers' pamphlet
accompanies the film. Features are an histori-

1600 B.C. to the present time — a list of needed
technical terms — a vocabulary aid on words
new to pupils — and especially a series of se-

"This film is particularly beneficial for

Animated drawings show how the image of
an object is transmitted by the optic nerve
to the brain, and how the image fades, instead
of stopping abruptly when the object is re-
moved from the field of vision. Application of
the principle to a series of photographs makes
them appear in a continuous unbroken motion.

of this type from beginning to end
In this particular puppet, the finger stall is
first made with light cardboard and glue, to
which the cotton head filler is securely fastened.
A stock is pulled over the filler and finger stall
and cut one inch below the stall. The operation
of making the face of the puppet is then shown
in complete detail, from sketching and painting
the features through fastening the hair in
place. The dress is made from a pattern.
When the dress is sewed to the now completed
'head' of the puppet, it is ready for use

The Type II puppets differ from Type I
in that they have faces with built-up features —
otherwise they are just alike. The process of
raising the features commences with making
the frames for the eyes, nose, and ears, of wire.
When the wire has been inserted and fastened
to the sock, papier mach^ is made to cover
the frames. The process of making the papier
mach6 and the ingredients are carefully de-
picted. When this mixture is of the correct
consistency, the features are moulded and
fastened to the already inserted frames
Mixing the paint and decorating the
features is shown to aid the beginner in de-
termining the proper shading and the correct
procedure. A method of steadying the hand
while painting concludes this half-reel. Models
of this type of puppet are shown in action
A simple puppet theatre is shown in the
course of construction. The style of the "stage"
is as elementary as possible, so that beginners
may follow it clearly. A "curtain" is con-
structed from an old roller shade, and dec-
orated. Methods of keeping the puppets on an
even line during the course of their action are
clearly reproduced
When the stage is completed, a short play,
using the characters of Hansel and Gretel, is
produced. Various other characters appear, and
scenes from both front and back stage are
included

"The dance as the expression of human
emotion the world over. Typical national
dances in their native environment: the
ragged Arab street dancer clapping his tiny
cymbals; elaborately costumed Javanese girls
in perfect rhythm; the noisy clog; the weird
voodoo; the voluptuous Andalusian; the Bul-
garian national dance; gay Czechoslovak folk
dance; the frenzied Polynesian and others, all
woven together with music and an excellent
narrative to form a unit of extreme beauty.
"The closing dance might be considered
too exotic for some groups. In such case, it
could be omitted. Valuable as a teaching film
in advanced dancing or art appreciation
classes. Recommended for cultural recreation
programs for senior school, college or club."

hands in their lunch hour right on up the
social ladder — has always played games
Girls as well as men are enthusiasts.
That is why Britain is a nation of healthy

Plays by the country's outstanding teams.
Analyzed by Nat Holman, head basketball
coach at the College of the City of New York
"An opening talk by Mr. Holman empha-
sizes the value of teamwork. The man-to-man
defense is shown, with the means best used
under varying situations to counteract it.
Variations are shown in the sliding man to
man, combination man to man defenses; and
the fixed zone, shifting zone, and pressing
defenses are included. Other fundamentals, in-
cluding passes, receiving, and pivot plays are
sketched.
"The film closes with another short talk
by Mr. Holman in which he states that baskets
are seldom accidents and there is both an
attack for every defense and a defense for
every attack. Throughout the film, the scene
alternates from practice games to championship
games to show various details.
"Should be useful in coaching boys'
basketball teams and possibly as a subject
of general interest during basketball season."

Offers a great abundance of beautiful

used both for comedy purposes and to il-

Men and women dash down precipitous
slopes, leap from crag to crag, even from
roof to roof of little Alpine huts, and make
beautiful herringbone patterns as they climb
the snowy mountain slopes. They turn and
twist, negotiate seemingly impossible curves,
take falls that seem incredible to the on-
looker
Leni Riefenstahl proves herself nearly as
expert as Hannes Schneider and helps to
supply an occasional comedy note to the pro-
ceedings. Guzzi Lantschner and Walter Riml
perform some amazing feats on their own ac-
count which are funny to watch but must re-
quire an infinite amount of skill

Herod's men pursue Jesus without success
When the King learns of their failure,
he orders the persecution of the Jews, believing
they will rebel, and that a leader will arise
amongst them who will be the Messiah whom
he seeks for slaughter. After a scene between
the Boy and His mother, the play ends with
Jesus exhorting His kinsmen, who face perse-
cution, to have faith. It is then that He is
recognized as the Leader whose coming they
have awaited

Jh-sh-adult
A Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production avail-
able only to schools
"Conflicting theories in regard to Cap-
tain Kidd's treasure are here illustrated. We
see Kidd in prison in 1701 under sentence of
death. He writes a letter to the authorities
promising to lead them to his treasure if, in
return, they will spare his life. He is hanged,
however, and the contents of his letter made
public.
"Three present-day business men . . . dis-
cuss a plan for finding the Kidd gold. One
of them says his information will take them
to a small island off the coast of Madagascar.
A dramatization of the story he tells shows the
pirate and his band attacking a ship, finding
a treasure chest, burying it. Kidd shoots the
two men who know the hiding place, but
draws a crude map of the location. The busi-
ness man claims to have this map.
"Another of the three ment conjectures
that Kidd was not a pirate, but had been com-
missioned by the King of England, and that
his crew mutinied and seized the chest.
"It should be useful in stimulating imag-
inative writing in high school English classes.
It might also be of interest to college stu-

Scotland tells of her war effort, her deter-

Scotland's farms contribute cattle for milking
and for meat; her pastures now being ploughed
yield more oats and wheat; her industries —
iron, steel, coal, lumber are making up for
reduced imports; the Clyde, second port of the
Commonwealth, is more than ever important,
especially for shipbuilding.
Altho thousands of land girls are working,
the shepherd and his dog still tend the sheep,
whose wool is needed for khaki cloth for
Scottish soldiers, while on the minesweepers
and trawlers Scottish sailors do their wartime

This is a documentary film by Paul
Rotha. The first unit titled "Heritage of the
past" shows the serenity and beauty of coun-
try life in plowing and harvesting and also of
the calm cathedral country existence in Great
Britain
Unit 2, "Smoke age" develops the idea
of what lies under this lovely face. Industrial
scenes of much noise and smoke follow as a
result of coal mining. "New power" is the
title of Unit 3. This deals with water as the
source of new power and indicates the uses
to which it may be put. In Unit 4, "New

ered, closing with more scenes of the coun-

Great Britain is located, over-viewed and
its boundaries, population, etc. outlined. Then
we have views of harvesting, of grazing sheep
and of a dairy farm. We see farmhouses, vil-
lages and market towns. Some of the people
mine the coal fields, some produce steel and
iron, some weave wool and some manufacture
cotton
We then have what might be called
thumb nail sketches of a farmer, a woman
doctor, a ship's captain, a private secretary
and a silversmith
The sports of these people are swiftly
indicated — cricket, tennis, swimming, skating,
rabbit and duck shooting and football. Free
to do what they like to do these people enjoy
gardening, a simple family life and public
dancing, talking and group games
The film closes on a quick review of our
special workers previously seen and points out
that we have here indicated not only the

At the height of the summer season in

populous little cities. On Midsummer Eve —
June 23rd — the peasants gather from all the
outlying farms and hillsides, to revive the
quaint pagan custom of raising the May-pole,
which is covered with their blue and yellow
national colors, and decked with garlands of
flowers. The thousands of men, women and
children, in their gay festive attire, gathered
around the pole at twilight, present a most
interesting sight
The following Sunday, Midsummer Sunday
— we see another brilliant spectacle. The
peasants, in colorful costumes, assemble from
the neighboring mountain farms and in their
distinctive parish-boats, which seat upward.s
of forty people, row rhythmically across the
lake to the famous church at Leksand, built

"Out of Tibet comes an unusual color
picture. . . This four-reel film is the work
of Theos Bernard, the first white man ever
to live in the Lamasteries and Cities of Tibet,
and records his life amongst the Tibetans. The
beauty of the mysterious plateau with its
deeply religious people is fully revealed in the
picture." Educational screen
"The film first details, on black-and-
white film stock, the way in which permission
to enter Tibet was secured. Out of the jungled
tropics and over the 14,000-foot-high pass lead-
ing into Tibet, the expedition's caravan of
men and donkeys travels six days through the
bleak country to reach the first point of in-
terest shown, a Buddhist shrine and cairn. The
first city is entered at an auspicious time,
since religious ceremonies are taking place.
These strange ceremonies are shown in some
detail. Continuing on its way, the expedition
journeys 300 miles to reach Lhasa, the capital.
"Beginning with the approach to the city,
the film changes to color (Kodachrome) stock
and continues in full color throughout the re-
mainder of the film except for a short se-
quence dealing with Theos Bernard's inaugura-
tion ceremonies. Just outside the city walls
of Lhasa, the film shows the beggars, detail-
ing some of their customs. Scenes in the
city's streets and markets include shots of
the unique portable jail cell with its prisoner
on public exhibition. The King Regent, su-
preme ruler pending the finding of the Dalai
Lama, receives the expedition with gifts of
welcome. A traditional story-dance, the longer
version of which lasts several days, is shown.
"The great stone palace on a mountain-
top, standing 300 feet high and 900 feet from
wing to wing, is. presented in the next se-
quence. Climbing to the roof of the palace, the
camera shows its eaves of solid gold an inch
thick, and the golden gargoyles which decorate
the eaves. Changing again into black-and-
white, the film shows the all-day prayer cere-
monies which inaugurated Theos Bernard into
the monastic sect of the Tibetans. The re-
mainder of the film, in color, shows the final
portion of the journey, visiting Shigatze and
other cities and returning through the moun-
tainous country down into India." Collaborator

The film opens with a few shots of chil-
dren playing with an unusual boat and leopard
kittens. This brings about a natural introduc-
tion to the family. The parents point out the
path of their trip on a globe and then fol-
lows the exciting and unusual story
There are many shots of beautiful pagodas
and gem-encrusted temples in and near Ran-
goon in Burma. There are excellent shots of
a most unusual water wheel made of bamboo
and rotating on a teakwood axle. The expe-
dition visits the once thriving but now dead
city of Padaung
A sequence is devoted to the odd "giraffe
neck" girls and one girl actually permits the

There are most interesting shots of leg-
propelled native boats used for transportation
at one stage of the .iourney. Soon after this
the expedition proceeds on foot
Much footage is given over to the ele-
phants— working in the teak wood forests,
hauling logs, caring for their young, bathing.
The next leg of the journey finds our expedi-
tion mounted on elephants. Something of the
majestic feel of this mode of travel is conveyed

Finally the party arrives at the village
of the .snake worshippers. They are per-
mitted to accompany a priestess up the moun-

snake »?"od the priestess must kiss him on the
head three times. This terrifying but awe-

"An interesting travelogue with straight-

subject matter. This film is unusual among
travelogues because it shows not only native
life but also the modern aspects of the country.
The film starts with the bathing of the sacred
white elephants of Siam. We are then taken
to the market place and we see the fruit stands,
etc.
"The graceful and energetic stick fight is
next presented. A snake farm is visited and
these snakes produce the most deadly snake
poison known. The snakes are cultivated and
the poison is used for an anti- toxin for snake
bites. A very exciting picture of a fight be-
tween a cobra and a mongoose is shown. The
fight seems rather cruel because the 2 are
caged in a small box. The mongoose, which
is a domestic pet of the Siamese, is used to
protect against snakes and is the winner.

"This film of the five races who live in
Malaya is a British importation of fine photog-
raphy and teaching value. Ways in which these
various types of people live and work are
shown, from the native Sakai, who hunt with
blow pipe and poisoned dart to the British
who rule the region. The part that each
racial group plays in the progress of Malaya
is emphasized.
"Malay, Chinese, and Indian are shown at
work raising rice and rubber and mining tin.
Though this film shows how five races can
live together in the same region, one feels that
there must be conflicts and discriminations that
are ignored in the production.
"On the whole this is an excellent film to
use in showing progress and customs of the
human race from a primitive culture, through
several stages, to a more highly developed
order. This film may also be used in teaching
the character and importance of agriculture
and mining of this region to world markets."
Scholastic
"A very good, very interesting educational
travelogue on Malaya. Photography was good,
sound excellent and the picture is a very en-
tertaining educational travelogue done in a
professional manner with interesting and in-
formative commentary. The film shows the five
faces or five peoples of Malaya from the savages
of the interior to the cultivated and aristocratic
settlements in Singapore. The various aspecyts
of the lives of the natives are shown. The
native dances, native customs, how they pre-
pare their food. How they reap and thresh
their grain, etc.
"The film then goes on and describes the
lives and habits of the other four 'Faces' of
Malaya. It is all done in a very professional
manner and highly engrossing. The film ends
up with the British and a brief account of what
they have done in and for the Malaya States.
There is a slight bit of British imperialistic
propaganda in this part of the film but it is
not enough to be objectionable. All in all a
very good picture." Harold B. Jensen

"Rounding the Cape of Good Hope, a
brief visit is made in the great modern city
of Capetown, from which quick transition is
made to the rolling plains of the interior, and
finally the jungle itself. . . The humped African
cattle are guarded jealously, and the size of a
man's herd establishes his position in the
tribe as well as the number of wives he may
have. Markings on the face and body des-
ignate the wearer's relationship to family or
sect. Children squat on the ground of the
village street while the women procure milk
from the cow for immediate consumption on
the spot. Monkeys play with and plague the
youngsters. A father teaches his young how
to build a fire by the same method that now
is taught all Scouts.
"In contrast is one of the rarest of movie
shots ever to come from Africa. It is a
sequence in which a father lion teaches his cub
something about the rough ways of the jungle.
The ferocious African elephant is shown in its
natural settings, and then trained to do the
hard work of the jungle. Baby lion cubs guard
the den in the absence of their parents. 'There
are herds of zebra, giraffes and other denizens
of the jungle. A fine closeup study shows a
magnificent specimen of lion at the water-hole.
"Native tribal dances are witnessed, as
is the novel way in which native girls fish
in the rushing rapids of the Zambesi. The

The opening shots are of the Calvary

Our Canadian Pacific train arrives at Banff
and we see the Banff Springs hotel where the
Bow and Spray rivers meet. We are shown
the terraces, tennis courts, canoeing, fishing
and bathing in the warm sulphur pool available
there. We see Cascade gardens in the shadow
of the snows of Cascade mountains. A view
of Bow river, with trees, glaciers and tinted
peaks in the background. The tumbling waters
of Bow Falls. Two mounties are seen riding
one of the trails. Views follow of an Indian
reservation. We are shown some of their
activities and closeups of their colorful costumes
and head-dresses. Then a group of tourists on
horses winds up a mountain trail and pitches
camp
Reel 2 opens on the golf links. Then the
Canadian Pacific train takes us to Lake Louise
and the hotel is seen surrounded with gardens.
The lake is seen with the fingers of Victoria
glacier stretching down into its waters. Swim-
mers are seen frolicing in a pool high above
sea level. More shots of Lake Louise. Then
we move on to Moraine Lake where ten peaks
walk in majesty. We are again on the train
speeding to the great divide where Alberta
becomes British Columbia. We see Takak-
kawa Falls, Twin Falls, Woho glacier, Emerald
Lake, Mt Burgess, Crowfoot glacier, Bow
Lake, Bow Pass and Ceyto Lake
Reel 3 brings us to Alexandra Camp.
With the coming of day we start along the
winding North Saskatchev/an. We see Sas-
katchewan glacier, Mt Athavaska and a riot
of color in the flowers growing in the back-
ground. From Cline Pass the trail leads to
Cataract Pass and Pinto Lake and then thru
Sunset Pass back to camp. We see Mt Castle-
guard. Now the train takes us down from
the mountain heights to Vancouver. We have
many views of this "city of flowers." In her
harbor we see the Empress of Japan set sail
and also one of the "Princess" ships. We
are shown the EJmpress Hotel at Victoria and
shots of the flowers in the lovely gardens

fllm. But Ottawa is a city of people. They
have made of their home a planned city, with
streets running out from the central area they
call the Plaza. They have built the beautiful
driveways, bordered them with trees and parks
and they live here, play, go to school, marry
and work here
Lumbering is significant to the develop-
ment of Ottawa and many men of Ottawa work
in the mills at neighboring Hull. Twenty
thousand of her citizens are employed in gov-
ernment offices. The children play baseball in
vacant lots and regale themselves on hot pop-
corn. Housewives choose crisp vegetables and
new eggs from the farmers' market just below
the House of Parliament
Race and religion meet and mingle. There
is a quaint old French section, called Lower
Town, and a newer English section called
Upper Town
In summer many swim going up the
Gatineau. In spring they go on picnics and in
fall they walk in a blaze of autumn color.
Winter brings snow that brings joy to the
hearts of the children. They build themselves
skating rinks by pouring water on the ground
to freeze and then skate and skate. Men with
large, horse-drawn sleighs shovel snow off the
streets and out on the hills the skiers swarm
for miles
This fllm outlines the life of a people

from the three other titles: People of Mexico

the usual content of the geography text's

than stimulative.
"The content consists chiefly of a factual
outline of the physical aspects of the country

A film about real people — the fishermen
of the state of Vera Cruz on the Gulf of
Mexico. The cast is composed of actual fishery
men who live in the town of Alvarado in Vera
Cruz, and it is their experience, their sorrows
and their struggles which the film depicts.
The story itself was generated by the direct
contact of the producers with these fishermen.
Adhering closely to the actual events of their
lives, it dramatizes the conditions of their
existence and the implications of their pre-
dicament
"Tells of fishermen in Mexico who are
exploited by their employers. It centers upon
one man, whose child dies from lack of money
to provide medical care. He leads a strike
for fairer pay, there is a battle among the
workers — the strikers and those who for one
reason or another are against the strike — in
which the man is killed. Hi.« death unites all
the workers, who at the end appear to be on
the way to a victory for their cause." Nat.

The historical reason for the title of this
film is that New Hampshire was the necessary
ninth state to ratify the constitution. Colonial
houses and doorways are first shown, followed
by a trip to the Isle of Shoals and quaint Gos-
port church. The State House at Concord is
shown with the statues to Daniel Webster,
Gen. John Stark, and Franklin Pierce. The
parade is shown which was held to com-
memorate the ratification of the constitution
These background scenes are followed by
others to show some of the industries and
advantages of New Hampshire as a State: its
water power for generating electricity to use
in transforming pulpwood into paper; the use
of its granite in many of the public buildings
in Washington, D.C. ; its high schools, state
university, and Dartmouth College; its popu-
larity as a summer playground for adults and
for children's camps; the beauties of the
White Mountains; fun in fishing in well-stocked
streams; the summer theatre; the Mt Wash-
ington and the Flume, also the aerial tramway
The concluding scenes show New Hamp-
shire's agriculture, dairy and poultry farming;
and the fun to be had in the winter sports
of skiing, skating, and dog sleds. Narrated
by Alois Havrilla
"One of the best two-reelers ever to be
fashioned as good-will ambassador for a com-
munity's industrial and recreational advan-
tages. . . The picture covers an amazing
amount of subject matter — historical, cultural,
industrial, recreational. But interest never
wanes. The finale, following stirring shots of
New Hampshire in Winter, in contrast to the
already delineated Summer glories, is ingeni-
ously devised." Film Daily

"Covers the recreational, scenic and his-
torical features of the State, from the coast,
where the first English colony was founded on
Roanoke Island, to the highest mountains east
of the Mississippi.
"The film opens with scenes from the
symphonic drama, 'The Lost Colony,' and
takes the audience from sand dunes and an-
cient wrecks, inland through tulip fields and
peach orchards, to the universities at Chapel
Hill and Duke.
"Proceeding westward across the Pied-
mont, the movie reaches its climax in the re-
sort area and the Great Smokies.
"Although the main purpose of this film is
obviously to interest travelers, the picture has
real educational value — the settling of Roa-
noke; agricultural produce represented by
strawberries, peaches, melons, tobacco and
cotton; Indian crafts shown on the Cherokee
Reservation — all make this a delightful movie
for groups of any age studying North Caro-
lina." Movie makers

Produced in 1935 by Meridian Pictures.
Because most people think of New York as
"America's First Frontier" we are first shown
that famous skyline. The scene shifts to St
Augustine, Florida which this film claims to
be really "America's First Frontier." While
the Fountain of Youth Park and other points
of scenic interest are shov/n, the commentator
outlines some of the history of this early
settlement
The original little red school house built
of hand-hewn red cedar is seen. We see the
Plaza de la Constitution and the market place
and the ancient home of the Franciscan
Fathers, the narrowest street on the continent,
an ancient fort and an alligator farm
The film closes on an imaginative note
showing Don Toledo, considered to be the first
white man to marry an Indian, sitting beside
the fireplace of his house with his bride

"This film is very entertaining, being in
some respects, a 'newsreel' record of Florida,
showing such typical scenes as alligators, re-
sorts, deep-sea fishing, winter quarters of the
circus, horse-racing, and the inevitable bath-
ing-beauty contest.
"In addition, it takes the audience to
points of historical interest in St. Augustine,
to the Bok Tower, St. Petersburg, Biscayne
Bay, and Miami, showing the importance of
the tourist trade to Florida, and touching very
briefly on a few other economic aspects of the
state.
"Its educational value, however, is very
general, and considerably below its recreation-
al value. Smoothly produced, 'Fun in Florida'
would be an excellent motion picture for cer-
tain types of assembly programs. Its value
in the classroom, however, is questionable,
except where used with exceptional prepara-
tion on the part of the teacher and class."

districts
Remains of an Indian pueblo village are
shown. Then men are seen panning gold in
a stream. Placer mining is spoken of and the
importance to the development of Arizona
played by the early pioneer. We see the once
riotous town of Tombstone in its present day
quiet
There follows a lengrthy tour of many of
the mines of the state. We are told what is
mined and the type of mining with statistics
at each location. This covers mining of cop-
per, gold, manganese, mercury, limestone, gyp-
sum, sericite, feldspar, onyx, silica, asbestos
and bituminous coal
Here we start on another type of ex-
ploration of the state. We visit Granite
Dam, Coolidge Dam, the Colorado River and
Boulder Dam. We consider irrigation problems
and see the storage project near Yuma
We next consider the agricultural
achievements of the state
Cattle raising is a long established in-
dustry. Yellow pine are raised extensively as
proven by a view of what is said to be the
largest forest of these trees in the world
At this point the film goes into color.
We see the Mission of San Xavier del Bac,
the desert with its fascinating cacti and
Saguaro, Montezuma Castle and Organ Pipe

the beauty of Oak Creek Canyon. Northeast
of Flagstaff is Sunset Crater. We visit the

Animated maps help to provide a his-

Ruins of pre-Inca and Inca civilizations are
shown. Contemporary family life in an Indian
Communal villaere makes up the major se-

mining, oil refining, cotton and sugar cane
production — are briefly treated, along with
urban life in the city of Lima. The seasonal
return of the Indians to their native villages
concludes the presentation
"An excellent film for showing the Inca
influence in Peru. Many interesting shots

"First the film tells of the location and
topography of Bali; then come scenes of
elaborately carved temples. Rice, the staple
food, is shown being cultivated and threshed
by semi-nude native women. The following
sequence, in the village market square, shows
the customs of trade among the natives.
"A short sequence deals with pottery mak-
ing. The next sequence, somewhat more
lengthy than those preceding, deals with the
Balinese religious ceremonies which seem so
strange to the Western eye: the semi-nude
girls bring offerings, a street procession carries
weird-looking figures, and a witch-dance, ac-
companied by a native gong orchestra, con-
cludes the ceremonies. The film ends with
emphasis upon the tranquility of life on the
Island of Bali.
"A typical travelogue, unusual only be-
cause many scenes of partially nude native
girls and women are included. Lack of depth
limits educational value. Film probably would
be o.k. for adults but semi-nudity of native
women makes school value questionable."

Inhabitants of the Arctic region, their mode of

educational film of superior merit which lends
itself admirably to schoolroom use where it
will really make a child live vicariously through

"This film can be shown to all grades from

skillful handling of the closeups which reveal
the phlegmatic character of the old father,

"Pictures the ladies of the days of Vic-

Seeking a way to eliminate the neglect which
caused the death of so many wounded soldiers,
Clara Barton concludes that the women should
go to war to tend the men. She attempts to
enlist, but is summarily rejected.
"A few women, however, follow her ex-
ample and go into the field to serve in the
hospital. Their ministrations are accepted,
until a shell wrecks the hospital, causing the
death of one of the nurses. Clara Barton,
despite her dismissal by General Garfield, con-
tinues her work. Failing health compels her
to seek a cure in a Swiss sanitarium. There
she is approached by a group of people who
are desirous of her aid to secure the member-
ship of the United States in an international
organization, the Red Cross. She unsuccess-
fully asks Congress to adhere to this interna-
tional organization, but when a great confla-
gration comes to one of the nation's cities.

"Persecution follows him and he is forced

Antwerp, a trap was laid for him by a false
friend and he was imprisoned.

el-Jh-sh-c-adult
In this picture are brilliantly colored flags
calling out messages in Washington, New York,
Philadelphia and Los Angeles. A brief his-
torical introduction shows ten of the more im-
portant flags of the United States
We see the upholstery shop where Betsy
Ross made her flag and Independence Hall in
Philadelphia. We learn the meaning of the
flags that fly over the White House and
Capitol in Washington
We see ships from Holland, Sweden, Ru-
mania, Denmark, Honduras and the Philip-
pines, all showing their colors. The English
and French ships, at war, show only one spot
of color — the flag. All over the world ocean
liners are signalled into harbor by flags — the
pilot flag, the medical quarantine flag, the
coast guard flag, famous blue Peter. Flags
even give the name of the ship in flag code
Red flags are the symbol of danger.
Weather bureau signals flown by the marine
exchange are seen warning all ships headed
for rough seas. The coast guard flag rescues
a boat in distress relying on the primitive rule
of the sea — "Anything flown upside down is a
call for help"
There are decorative flags, tatooed flags
and flags as identification. Boy Scouts signal
with flags; a scout master tells the story of
flags to his troop and most strongly stressed —
Old Glory bids us uphold the ideals for which
our flag stands
"Beautiful kodachrome color. . . Provides
a good general survey which is both interest-
ing and instructive. . . The film's chief fault
is that it crowds in so much information that
people in the audience are likely to fail to
remember much that is told them. This could,
of course, be compensated for by a follow-up
of certain of the more important sections of
the film. Excellent film." Secondary educ.

Jh-sh-c-adult
"Animated maps, scenes from newsreels
of the period, and commentary combine in
this Aim to explain the major causes and
the immediate effects of the 1914-18 First
World War.
"A general outline of casual factors, be-
ginning with the year 1879, the following are
cited: The Triple Alliance between Italy, Ger-
many and Austria; the Berlin- to -Badgad Rail-
way plan: The Franco-Russian Dual Alliance;
Germany's increasing inroads on British trade,
leading, in 1904, to the Anglo-French Entente
Cordiale; thr^e years later, Russia joins and
makes it the Triple Entente; Germany and
France dispute over Morocco; this is first de-
cided in France's favor; in 1908, Austria an-
nexes from Serbia the provinces of Bosnia and
Herzegovina; Russia protests; in 1911, another
Moroccan crisis, which is adjusted by allowing
concessions to Germany in Africa. A rising
Serbian national spirit is opposed by Austria.
So. in 1914, Europe is armed to the teeth but
still hoping for peace. Then Archduke Franz
Ferdinand is assassinated at Sarajevo; Austria
delivers an ultimatum to Serbia; then, balked
by Serbian resistance, Austria declares war.
Other declaration of war follow: The First
World War has begun.
"The course of the War is traced in the
next sequence. Germany drives into Prance.
Turkey joins the Central Powers; then Italy
comes in on the Allies' side; the opposing
navies fight the Battle of Jutland; Germany
begins submarine warfare; the Lusitania is
torpedoed; finally, Woodrow Wilson recom-
mends that America declare war; other neutrals
enter. Torn internally by revolution, Russia
quits and the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk is signed.
Germany again takes the offensive, but Marshal
Foch, his troops now reinforced by the Ameri-
cans orders a general attack. Finally Ger-
many's allies surrender and the Armistice
comes.
"Animated maps here show in detail the
well-known terms of the Treaty of Versailles.
President Wilson returns to the United States,
where Congress rejects the Treaty and the
League of Nations. The minority problems in
Europe appear when the Treaty is put into
effect. Greece and Turkey continue the fight,
but Greece fails to conquer. So, in 1923, the
First World War is over. But tomorrow's
leaders — Stalin, Mussolini and Hitler — are toil-
ing and scheming.
"A very good film for use in history classes
at the senior high, college and adult levels;
should be of value at the junior high level. The
film is unbiased and is fairly accurate his-
torically. To cover its subject in 22 minutes, its
pace necessarily is rapid; it is probable, there-
fore, that at least two, and perhaps three,
showings will be found desirable with accom-
panying study and discussion." Educational
screen
"This film is in no way prejudiced, the
facts are presented in a straight-forward
truthful manner. Very complete and easily
understood. An excellent film for political
science and American history classes. Photog-
raphy, sound and presentation of subject
matter are excellent. Useful for social studies —
American History — Political science." California

Photographed in England, and in Danzig

It is not, intentionally, pro-British, pro-
Polish or pro-anything, except humanity — suf-

Its object is to portray what happens to
the man in the street or the man In the field,
when old fashioned statesmanship fails, and
modern warfare prevails. It seeks to speak for
millions of human beings in all lands kindly,
well intentioned folk, harboring no enmity to-
wards their neighbors, seeking only a mini-
mum of security for themselves and their chil-
dren. It shows these inherently, peaceful
people bewildered by conflicting propagandas
caught in the web of racial and economic
forces which drive them to death and disaster

"This documentary film opens with scenes
of Alabama — negroes picking cotton, mules
turning the sugar cane press, negroes boiling
sugar cane sap to make sorghum — all to an
accompaniment of Paul Robeson's chant of
'The Walls of Jericho.' Then, amid rumblings
of distant cannon, a battle field scene is
shown, an air-raid warning is sounded, the
battle comes closer to Childersburg, Alabama,
and men line up for strange new war jobs.
"Plans are completed for a $75,000,000
powder plant, and men and machinery go to
work. People leave their farms so that the
private buildings can be razed to make room
for the federal project. . . Soldiers, tanks and
equipment come pouring into the town. . . A
whole new life mushrooms into existence,
bringing with it open-air theaters, bunk
houses, unions, trailer camps, lots of money,
and boom times.
"This picture of prosperity is then com-
pared with the events in 1917 when soldiers
left for World War I, and mining and agricul-
ture brought prosperity to the people of the
valley. The period of depression following- the
first World War is then depicted with the
mines closed, brush claiming most of the land,
and farmers going from their farms to the
roads.
"The commentary then explains that we
do not want this to happen again; that every
man's brain and muscle should be working for
democracy; that a post-war prosperity won't
just happen; that we must work for it. . . If
skillfully used, should provoke critical thought
and discussion in both school and adult
groups.
"The last three reels of the film compare
unfavorably with the first due to a lack of
unity in the organization of the material."

Suddenly the Graf Spee is enveloped in

A typical group of British farmers sit
talking in a "pub." One of their friends, just
returned from a week in a Home Guard train-
ing camp, comes in and tells proudly of the
Home Guards and their origin in the militia
of Elizabethan times and the volunteers of
the Napoleonic period. As he describes his
training, "half practice, half theory," it is
illustrated
This film was made to explain to the public
the role of the Home Guard in wartime Britain.

"This film will be found to have a wide

"The picture opens with Henry VIII on
his death-bed, and as the Grim Reaper tightens
his clutch on the polygamous-minded monarch,
Henry calls his advisors and councillors
to his bedside and informs them in no
uncertain terms of the order of succession,
Edward, Mary, Elizabeth and the Lady Jane
Grey, calling down his curse on any and all
who attempt to change this succession.
"The king dies, and Edward is proclaimed
ruler with Milord Edward Seymour as Lord
Protector, or Regent. The picture then follows
the short reign of Edward VI, with the execu-
tion of Seymour's brother, Thomas, the rise of
the Earl of Warwick, and the execution of
Edward .Seymour.
"The boy king dies, and Warwick, un-
afraid of Henry's curse, proclaims the Lady
Jane Grey, Queen, and her husband, his son.
Prince Consort. After a short reign, nine days
to be exact, the people of England rise against
the young queen, and rally around the banner
of Mary, later to be known as 'Bloody Mary'.
A battle ensues between the forces of War-
wick and those of Mary, Warwick and his son
are captured, and Lady Jane made a prisoner.
The picture closes with the execution of the
child, Jane, and her husband.
"The film closely follows the history of
England at that time, as we learned it at
school, with no fiction added to the plot. The
performance of Nova Pilbeam as the Lady
Jane Grey, is a remarkable one. . . Another
outstanding performance is given by Desmond
Tester as the boy, Edward . . . Sir Cedric
Hardwicke and Dame Sybil Thorndyke ... do
some fine acting as Warwick and Jane's nurse,
respectively, and the rest of the cast is equally
excellent. Great credit must go to Robert
Stevenson who handled the megaphone on this
production." Canadian moving picture digest

"The film consists entirely of maps, form-

matter . . . presents obvious difficulties and
the main feature of the film is the extent to
which the producers have succeeded in selecting
facts and tracing their development without
giving a one-sided or biased account. So far
as any one account of an historical event or
series of events can be said to be accurate,
this film can be and it allows any teacher or
lecturer to interpret the facts presented. The

art of weaving in which the women of her
tribe are skillful. Bah wants the doll of the
white child more than she wants anything in
the world and her mother tells her she may
weave a blanket to exchange for the coveted
treasure at the Trading Post
When the trader refuses to take the
blanket, darkness and despondency descend
upon the little Indian girl but her friend, the
trader's son buys the doll for her with his
savings
After this act of kindness, the Navajos
accept the white boy as their friend and teach
him many interesting bits of Indian lore and

The commentator speaks of the grimness
of some of the customs of the puritan period,
and then we see a map locating the Massa-
chusetts Bay Colony, as he tells of its origin
and gives some points of its history
We then sec actual scenes in the daily
life of the people such as the governor and his
assistants, speech making, and treatment of
strangers. A few years later, some scenes of
daily hfe. A little girl is scorned by other
children because of her mother's reputation.
Methods used to regulate the conduct of every
person in the community are shown, using the
same erring woman and her child as ex-
amples. There is a scene in church showing
how the congregation was forcibly kept awake
if necessary. We see some of the hardships —
for instance, caring for the sick in cold weath-
er when supplies were low. There is a home-
ly scene of women washing clothes by the
river. A man is seen in a stock, where he
has been put because he laughed on the Sab-
bath. The film closes as the town crier calls

"Dramatization of Benjamin Franklin's

Colonial commissioners at Albany in 1754. It
demonstrates . . . that the need for a con-

merely from the desire of the colonists for
political freedom but from the pressure of
economic competition with the French forces
in Canada and the Northeast territories.

"Opens with a dramatic foreword to the
effect that if American independence had failed,
the signers of the Declaration of Independence
would have signed their own death warrants.
"We see delegates from various colonies
on their way to Philadelphia. . . Lee and Jef-
ferson come by coach from Virginia. Two dele-
gates from Delaware and others from South
Carolina are traveling on horseback. They are
discussing, pro and con, the advisability and
the necessity of a complete break with England.
"Hancock presides in the convention
hall. . . Franklin seconds a resolution calling
for a complete break with England. It is de-
cided that Jefferson, aided by Franklin and
Lee, draw up a declaration. We see these three
working on it.
"Rodney is the only delegate to return
home, but he has promised to be back in time
to vote. . . He receives a message that his
vote is needed at Philadelphia, and he makes
a fast ride of the 80-mile trip. He is shot at
on the way, but escapes.
"The polling is taking place in Philadel-
phia and, with Rodney's arrival, the independ-
ence issue is carried. . . The picture closes
with the ringing of the liberty bell.
"The Rodney episode, is of course, ro-
manticized, but is true in regard to the im-
portance of his vote. The actors are cleverly
made up so that they look like the characters
they represent, and the colonial costumes are
good.

"That the Father of these United States
was in no small way aided in his flght for
freedom and tolerance by the financial and
moral assistance of a Jewish patriot, one
Haym Salomon, is the story told forcefully
and rousingly in this Technicolor film.
"Salomon is first seen being initiated into
the freedom-loving group known as the 'Sons
of Liberty.' Arrested for aiding the rebels,
he is imprisoned, released, arrested again and
thrown into jail, where he meets in a dramatic
manner Nathan Hale on his way to death.
Escaping, Salomon moves to Philadelphia.
"While attending a religious ceremony,
he receives a plea from General Washington
to help raise $400,000 for the Continental
Army. An inspiring sequence shows a Hebrew
congregation responding to his appeal for
financial assistance.
"At the end of the war, Salomon dies,
repeating the words from the preamble of
the Declaration of Independence that 'all men
are created free and equal.' " Georgia

amongst beautiful scenery of fjords and moun-

Pastor beloved of his people, his simple faith
in God through prayer, and his belief in God's
power of healing a dying child when the doctor
has given up all hope. The climax comes when
his wife meets with an accident and is told it
is doubtful whether she will walk again. He
vows to pray for her recovery until his prayer
is answered. It is, his wife walks, but only
across the room, when she sinks in her hus-
band's arms and dies.
"A sincere and impressive film. The act-

which, however, raises more questions than
it solves. The one responsible should see the

A kind-hearted park attendant finds a

While the puppies are still very small he sells
them to a dog "fancier" who takes them to
the dog market. He suceeds in reselling all
but one which he is unable to even give away.
A flipped coin saves the pup from a watery
grave. The man then fixes the small creature
up to look less like a mongrel and writes a
pedigree to go with him. The puppy is taken
to the park and "planted" in front of a weal-

A bath reveals him in his true colors and
the butler is commissioned to dispose of him
He weakens as he is about to drown him and
pays a junk man to take him away. From
this situation the pup wanders out on to a

that older people will enjoy and long remem-

"In 1805 a Lieutenant Nolan, over the
protests of his sweetheart, rides away from
Fort Massac on the Ohio River to join Aaron
Burr who expects to found a new empire
beyond the Mississippi. He is halted and ar-
rested by the colonel, father of Marion, the

curses the United States, saying he hopes
never to see the country again, land] the court
sentences him to spend the rest of his life
on a man-of-war where care would be taken
that he should hear no reference to the
United States.
"Then come episodes In his lonely
travels. . . In 1861 Lincoln tells [Marion] that
he is arranging for Nolan's return to this coun-
try. She dies in Lincoln's presence. The
picture closes with a phantasy In which Nolan's
spirit joins hers, both of them young again.
"The story, although highly emotionalized,
is a good dramatization of transitions in
American concepts of patriotism. Highly
recommended for classes in American history."

Rose, daughter of rich parents becomes
destitute after the bankruptcy and death of
her father, and is deserted by her flanc6 upon
his learning that she is impoverished. She
becomes the children's maid in a day nursery
Her duties gain her complete interest and
fascinate her. Deeply moved by her observa-
tion of these children, she realizes by contrast
what a happy childhood had been hers. The
children feel the love and tenderness this
thought evokes. Little Marie, in particular, is
foremost in Rose's mind and attentions
Marie's mother, a prostitute, has neglected
the child shamefully and, starved for love
and affection, she centers all her emotions
upon Rose. And Rose responds to the child
and takes her home to live with her. So all is
well for a time, but soon the young doctor
who treats the children falls under the spell
of Rose's charm, comes to love her and wants
to marry her. Marie senses their growing af-
fection and, thinking she is to lose her new-
found friend, becomes desperately despondent.
She goes to the river intent on destroying her-
self, but is rescued and assured that she will
find a haven and a home with Rose and the

"J^^ use of English performers enhances

"An excellent film from the standpoint of

of a small cargo boat on the Rio de la Plata.
He is like his namesake in that he fits from
'flower to flower' among the pretty girls who
live on the little islands which crowd the river,
never paying court to any one of them for
long. A new school teacher arrives in the
village and Picaflor and Chingolo, another
boatman, fall for her. She spends more time
with Picaflor than with Chingolo so that the
latter becomes jealous and reveals to the cus-
toms officers tiae fact that Picaflor is going
to take part in a deal to smuggle some silk
from one of the islands to the port.
"Picaflor is called in by the customs of-
ficers, and through promises of a reward if
he will tell who is the ringleader of the smug-
glers, is persuaded to turn state's evidence
and the smuggler captain is cavight. Picaflor
has to go into hidiing for his part in tattling
to the customs officers, and the school teacher
hides him. She tells him that she loves him.
Picaflor finds Chingolo and beats him up. But
in the end he brings Chingolo and the teacher

An Amkino release which was produced

play of the same name
Professor Mamlock is a noted surgeon.
His sole interests are his science and his
family. His son, Rolf, a student, is a Com-
munist. At his clinic, the professor finds that
his chief assistant, Dr. Hellpach, has been
made Nazi commissar
Hellpach denounces Mamlock for his Jew-
ish blood, interrupts an operation and forces
Mamlock to march through the streets sur-
rounded by storm-troopers with the word
"Jude" painted on his surgical gown
Meantime an important Nazi leader is
stricken and requires an operation for which
Mamlock has won renown. He insists on Mam-
lock and a Nazi lieutenant goes to Mamlock
and begs him to operate. His doctor's oath
moves iviamlock to consent. After the operation
however, Hellpach forces the professor's col-
leagues to sign a forged document against
Mamlock. As a protest, he attempts suicide,
and is retained for treatment
Rolf and his friend Ernst meanwhile are
being subjected to tortures upon refusing to
betray the names of their co-workers. Their
escape is arranged by a group of sympathizers
as they are being taken to concentration camp.
In the fight, Ernst is wounded and Rolf takes
him to the clinic. An alarm is given by Hell-
pach and the clinic is surrounded by storm
troopers. In the midst of tlie turmoil Professor
Mamlock goes to the balcony of the clinic,
makes a speech to the silent crowd below him.
The speech is cut short by a stream of ma-
chine-gun bullets
The final scene is a meeting of the under-
ground committee determining to carry on the
fight
"An engrossing, sincere, admirably played
and frequently highly dramatic film. . . It is
not only that the cobblestones are real or that
the men and women are real instead of extras,
or that neither they, nor we, ever are con-
scious of the camera's presence. It has some-
thing to do with the Russian ability to train
lens and lights upon a mass of men and
women and reduce them to a single dramatic
mood — panic, suspense, rage, fear or horror."
N.Y. Times
"A gripping and terrifying Soviet photo-
play. They have broadened the scope of Mr.
Wolf's play to make it a savage chronicle.

Based on the novel. The Shape of Things
to Come, by H. G. Wells. The film was made
in England. "[The story] outlines the col-
lapse of civilization after another Great War,
initiated without notice by thousands of planes
bombing defenseless cities. The whole world is
impoverished, machines rust and collapse and
cannot be replaced; a primitive society
evolves in which men live in the ruins of
once splendid towns and petty dictators exer-
cise tribal authority. Plague stalks the earth.
Order is restored by a band of aviators who,
in giant planes, bomb the dictators into sub-
mission by a 'gas of peace' which causes un-
consciousness and no worse. Peace is esta-
blished on the basis of world rule and mankind
sets out on an age of progress founded on sci-
ence." Mot. picture daily
"Highly imaginative, the film will appeal
to the eye rather than to the emotion, since
the stage settings and theories are emphasized
rather than the characterizations." Nat. coun-
cil of Jewish women
"This astonishing British film Is going
to do two things: It is going to make the aging
wish they could hold out to 2036, and it is

"Four novels framed by a prologue and
epilogue. . . Different in content. . . Dif-
ferent in location. . . Different in landscape,
people, customs. Opposite in rhythm and form,
they create a vast and multi-colored Film-
Symphony about Mexico. Four Mexican folk-
songs accompanying these novels." Thus
Sergei Eisenstein described the conception of
his film, "Que Viva Mexico!" on which "Time
in the Sun" is based
It is a love story, of the people for the
land and of the sun for the people. Each
of the four "novels" are characterized by
a love story set against characteristic back-
grounds; the two lovers on the lagoon in an-
cient Mayan days; the wedding festival of
Tehuantepac, matriarchy, with the shy bride-
groom and Amazonian bride; the peon of the
"Maguey" episode, whose bride is raped by
the hacendado; and, finally, the love and
merry-making during "Calaveras"
"A spectacular display and a magnificent
account of Mexican native life which rises
from mere externals to spiritual forces. . .
The photography is so stunning and of such
dramatic strength that each individual shot
offers an exciting experience!" N.Y. Times

traordinary and stirring. It rises to great

^„ Afr^°!r^^^® "P'^®'- "^°^' Son of Battle,"
by Alfred Olhvant
The scene is laid in the hills of the
Scottish Highlands against a backgrond of hills,
crags, and generally rugged country. Mc-
Adam, a sheepherder, played by Will Fyffe Is
sullen and ugly. A bare, thatched cottage
high in the hills is his home. His neighbors
fear him and hate him. McAdam returns their
hate but not their fear. He has love for only
three things. First of these is his daughter,
Jeanie, played by Margaret Lockwood. The
second thing is Black Wull, a wild, fierce dog.
The third love of McAdam is for his bottle
A newcomer to the rugged, mountainous
country is David Moore, played by John Loder.
good natured and kindly. He tries to be friend-
ly to McAdam
David also has a dog, Owd Bob, a mag-
nificent specimen and a fine sheep dog. The
anger of McAdam' s neighbors boils over when
more sheep are found with their throats cut,
evidently by a dog. They bring McAdam to
trial for harboring a sheep killer. David's
evidence helps to acquit McAdam but does not
increase the dour Scotchman's friendliness,
even when David saves him from an angry
mob. The dislike of McAdam for David is in-
creased when Owd Bob defeats Black Wull In
an exciting sheep herding contest
In a fit of drunken rage, McAdam quar-
rels with Jeanie and drives her out of his
home. David and Jeanie are married. Mc-
Adam cannot keep away from the wedding.
In the midst of the ceremony a shepherd
breaks in with the news that more sheep have
been found with their throats slit. It is def-
initely indicated that Black Wull is the killer.
With head bowed McAdam returns to his
lonely cottage followed by his dog. There he
takes down his gun and slowly loads it. Going
outside with Black Wull he shoots the one
creature he loved best of all
Misfortunes pile up. With no place to go,
McAdam seeks a haven with David and Jeanie.
One of David's dogs has just had a litter of
puppies. McAdam selects a puppy with sharp
teeth and a jet black coat. In this puppy he
sees Black Wull all over again. As the pic-
ture ends, the old man is seen sitting and
petting the little dog
"Gives excellent picture of life on the
Scottish moors. A splendid dog film. Truly
educational. The expert direction and acting
of this delightful movie makes it an excellent
example for photoplay groups to study." Col-

brought a lot of human interest into the story.
The wild animal life added excitement and

"The audience could be held for a long

what was going to happen next. The crash
of the plane at the end of the first reel and
the quick planning of the events to follow
