centre  perforations  of  the  film.

SB/793  Ski-ing.       Protagonists  of  ski-ing  certainly  have  a  claim  to  distinc- 

tion. Theirs  is  a  sport  that  demands  a  high  degree  of  proficiency 
and  hazard  uncalled  for  in  many  other  forms  of  exercise.  The 
art  of  stepping,  stopping  and  changing  direction  while  on  skis  is 
clearly  shown  in  this  film.  For  the  more  advanced  views  of 
jumping,  ski-joring  with  a  horse  and  motor-cycle  are  interesting

little  masterpiece,  ^^rhose  appeal  is  timeless.  For  the  first  time  in

the  use  to  which  the  horse  is  still  put.  It  is  a  review  of  the 
qualities  and  capabilities  of  man's  most  noble  conquest.  This  film 
is  also  of  interest  to  students  of  the  cinema  since  it  includes  a

SB/885  La   Maternelle.    (4  Reels.)    Directed  by  Jean  Benoit-Levy  and  Marie 

LLpstein.  This  striking  film  is  one  of  the  most  charming  produc- 
tions of  the  modern  French  cinema.  It  tells  the  story  of  a  young 
girl,  who  finds  her  true  bent  working  among  the  children  of  an 
orphanage,  and  its  interpretation  of  the  child  mind  has  only 
rarely  been  equalled.  Humour  and  pathos  alternate  in  a  clever 
rhythm,  and  as  a  famous  critic  has  said,  the  film  has  "  extraordin- 
ary vitality,  emotion,  and  intelligence.  "  The  heroine  is  played, 
most  touchingly,  by  Madeleine  Renaud,  now  married  to  Jean-Louis 
Barrault  and  who  still,  occasionally,  graces  the  French  screen, 
■while  the  hundred  or  so  extraordinarily  natural  children  are  led 
in   performance  by  little  Paulette   Flambert. 

SB/4424  Oliver  Twist.      (4  Reels.)      With  Dickie  Moore  as  Dickens's  famous

of  other  immortals  move  across  the  screen  exactly  as  if  they  were 
drawn  by  Cruikshank  himself.  In  perfect  settings  and  costume 
is    revealed   the    familiar   tale    of   "  the    boy   who   asked   for    more.  " 

SB/30027       Blackmail.  (2    Reels.)  Directed    by    Alfred    Hitchcock,    with 

Dona'd  Calthrop,  John  Longden,  and  Anny  Ondra.  This  famous 
British  film  is  one  of  the  landmarks  in  cinema  history,  and  it  first 
brought  Hitchcock  world  fame.  Its  thrilling  story  of  a  young 
Scotland  Yard  detective,  whose  fiancee  is  threatened,  quite  un- 
wittingly, with  both  a  murder  charge  and  threats  from  a  slimy 
blackmailer,  and  how  the  path  of  duty  leads  him  into  direct  con- 
flict with  the  paths  of  love,  is  of  equal  interest  to  the  manner 
in    which    the    master-craftsman    of     suspense      handles     it.  The 

development  of  character,  swiftness  of  action,  and  mounting  ten- 
sion expected  from  a  Hitchcock  film,  not  forgetting  the  authentic 
London    background   with   its   famous   policeman,    are   all    here. 

SB/30029  The  Ring.  (2  Reels.)  Directed  for  British  International  Pictures 
by  Alfred  Hitchcock.  This  was  also  Hitchcock's  first  original 
screen-play  and  his  best  silent  film.  Starring  Carl  Brisson,  Gordon 
Harker,  Ian  Hunter,  and  Lilian  Hall-Davis.  From  the  brilliant 
opening  sequence  of  a  bustling  fairground,  this  film  has  plenty 
of  drive  and  action.  It  unfolds  the  rise  of  a  young  boxer,  hi.s 
troubles  with  his  wife,  who  becomes  infatuated  with  a  rival  and 
the  famous  climax  of  the  championship  fight  at  the  Albert  Hall, 
where  he  wins  the  title  and  regains  his  wife's  affection.  The 
telling  is  masterly,  and  no  amateur  cine  worker  can  fail  to  learn 
much   therefrom. 

SB/30030  Piccadilly.  (3  Reels.)  Directed  by  E.  A.  Dupont.  Scenario  and

this  company.  High  life  and  low  life  in  London's  West  End,  with

becomes  the  star  cabaret  turn.  Jealousy  and  murder  add  com- 
plications to  a  gripping  tale  told  with  craftsman's  skill  by  Dupont, 
and  photographed  most  brilliantly  against  the  lavish  settings. 
Werner  Brandes  and  Alfred  Jijnge,  two  top-flight  German  tech- 
nicians, were  responsible  for  the  photography  and  decor 
respectively,  while  Charles  Laughton  makes  a  brief  but  un- 
forgettable appearance  as  an  irate  diner. 

SB/30034  The  Informer.  (3  Reels.)  Directed  by  the  distinguished  German 
director,  Arthur  Robison,  for  a  British  company,  this  film  was  the 
first  to  be  based  on  Liam  O'Flaherty's  povirerful  novel  of  the 
same  name,  dealing  with  the  Irish  rebellion.  With  Lars  Hansen, 
Lya  de  Putti,  Warwick  Ward,  and  Carl  Harbord.  Here  is  drama 
of  the  first  order,  a  fugitive  from  justice  betrayed  by  a  former 
comrade,  two  men's  love  for  the  same  girl,  and  the  fearsome 
vengeance  of  the  gang  upon  the  informer.  Robison's  direction 
is  tense,  and  the  culminating  roof-top  battle  with  the  police 
excitingly  done. 

SB/30039  Dolores.  (2  Reels).  Featuring  Gerald  Ames  and  Benita  Hume. 
That  his  young  friend  Ramiro  might  see  Dolores  in  her  true  light,

to  his  more  mature  manhood.  In  making  his  plans  he  arranges 
for  the  boy  to  discover,  seemingly  by  accident,  the  alliance  so 
provoked.  Sick  at  heart,  the  youngster  goes  off  into  the  moun- 
tains and  is  only  saved  from  certain  death  in  scaling  a  perilous 
height  by  turning  back  to  render  help  to  his  friend  who  slips  and 
falls  in  endeavouring  to  restrain  the  boy  whom  Dolores  really 
loves. 

SB/30043  The  Lion  Tamer.  (2  Reels).  Featuring  George  Bellamy.  A 
film  Vifith  dramatic  happenings  set  in  unusual  surroundings,  the 
life  of  a  circus  adding  interest  to  the  account  of  Professor  Swinley's 
flight  from  justice.  For  refuge,  he  joins  a  circus  and  exercises 
his  power  over  the  lions.  Soon  he  is  a  popular  attraction,  but  the 
time  comes  when  he  is  accused  of  a  second  crime,  murder.  For- 
tunately he  is  cleared  of  both  cases,  but  instead  of  returning  to  his 
studies  he  remains  with  the  circus  and  the  girl  he  loves.  This  film 
will  assuredly  be  popular  with  your  audiences.

directed  by  A'fred  Hitchcock.  With  Carl  Bresson  and  Anny 
Ondra.  Hall  Caine's  well-known  story  of  the  lives  and  fate  of 
two  Manxmen,  one  a  humble  fisherman,  his  friend  a  successful 
lawyer,  and  how  they  both  became  inextricably  involved  with 
the  same  pretty  girl.  Hitchcock  makes  the  most  of  the  drama 
that  is  woven  within  the  romance,  and  the  location  shots  of  the 
Isle  of  Man  scenery  are  delightful. 

SB/30071  Kitty.  (2  Ree's.)  A  Burlington  Picture,  with  Estelle  Brody  and 
John  Stuart.  Based  on  Warwick  Deeping's  famous  novel  about 
the  young  wife,  Kitty  St.  George,  confronted  with  the  two-fold 
task    of  nursing   her   husband   back   to    health   after   severe    injuries

in  an  air-crash,  and  also  effecting  a  reconciliation  with  his  mother, 
who  disapproved  of  the  war-time  match.  Kitty's  decision  to  play 
a  desperate  gamble  succeeds  in  the  end,  and  the  happiest  of 
reconciliations  is  effected.  Owing  to  the  exigencies  of  the  film 
industry  at  the  time  of  production,  parts  of  this  film  were  shot 
at  Elstree,  and  parts  in  New  York.  But  so  cleverly  are  the  separ- 
ate parts  matched,  in  the  riverside  tea-house,  for  instance,  that 
the  spectator  is  unaware  that  the  players  were  actually  thousands 
of  miles  apart  ! 

SB/30083       Robinson    Crusoe,  (3    Reels).  From    Daniel    Defoe's    beloved 

book,  which  was  the  first  work  of  fiction  ever  published  in  this 
country.  Great,     great    Grandfather    loved    "Robinson    Crusoe". 

As  a  film  you  will  love  it  too.  Here  is  the  castaway  on  the  lonely 
island  where  Defoe  placed  his  hero,  with  Man  Friday  as  his  sole 
companion   for   over   twenty   years.       It  is   a   great   story,   well  told. 

SB/30084       The    Blue    Light.  (4    Reels.)  One    of   the    last   of   the   German 

mountain  films,  and  probably  the  best.  "  A.  film  of  extraordinary 
beauty,  pictorial  power  and  of  a  rare  rhythmic  continuity,"  as 
one  critic  has  said.  A  co-operative  effort  by  Leni  Riefenstahl 
(director  and  leading  actress),  Hans  Schneeberger  (cameraman), 
and  Bela  Balazs  (writer).  With  Theodore  Weimann,  and  the 
villagers  of  the  Saarn  Valley.  This  time  it  is  summer  up  in  the 
mountains,  and  the  camera  catches  all  the  shimmering  beauty 
of  the  tree-filled  glades  and  sparkling  rocks.  The  story  is  based 
on  an  old  legend  of  the  Dolomites,  concerning  a  mysterious 
glowing  light  on  a  mountain  top,  which  can  be  reached  in  safety 
only  by  Junta,  a  strange  outcast  girl  in  direct  communion  with 
nature.  Eventually  a  visitor  to  the  village  climbs  to  investigate, 
and  finds  that  the  light  emanates  from  a  rich  deposit  of  crystal. 
The  results  of  his  discovery  are  beneficial  to  the  villagers,  but 
disastrous  to  Junta.  Note,  among  a  great  deal  of  interest  in  this 
wonderful  film,  the  striking  use  of  close-ups  of  peasant  faces,  and 
of  time-lapse  photography  when  the  sun  rises  or  sets  on  the 
peaks. 


SB/30085  Hearts  of  Oak.  Directed  by  H.  Bruce  Woolf  for  British 
Instructional.  The  story  of  the  most  famous  naval  event  in 
the  history  of  the  first  World  War,  the  storming  of  ZeeBrugge. 
Submarine  warfare  had  become  such  a  menace  not  only  to  those 
who  followed  the  call  of  the  sea,  but  also  to  those  vf\\o  looked 
to  men  and  ships  to  bring  the  necessities  of  life  across  the  wide 
oceans  to  this  country.  Something  had  to  be  done  to  stop  the 
toll  on  shipping.  Here  is  the  great  adventure  our  Navy  under- 
took Little  ships  and  big  ships  meet  at  a  secret  rendezvous  .  .  . 
then  comes  the  mighty  battle  of  Zrcbrugge  Mole  .  .  .and  the 
return  of  men  and  ships  from  out  of  the  mists  of  the  Channel  .  .  . 
the  day's  work  well  and  truly  done.  Some  sections  of  this  film 
are  necessarily  reconstructions  of  events,  others  actual  pictures 
of  the  magnificent  epic.  In  all,  it  is  a  truly  great  record  of  a 
wonderful    achievement. 

SB/30110  "Q"  Ships.  (4  Reels).  This  film  tells  in  a  vivid  and  authentic 
manner  the  grand  story  of  the  British  Mystery  Fleet.  The  char- 
acters truly  come  to  Tfe  and  once  the  film  begins  you  cannot  fail 
to  share  in  the  thrills  and  hr.rdships  of  war  on  and  under  the  high 
seas,  of  lucky  escapes,  of  suffocation  in  a  stricken  U-boat,  of 
feeling  you  are  actually  with  the  "pani~"  party  abandoning  ship 
to  lure  yet  another  submarine  into  the  line  of  fire.  A  film  that 
must  be  seen  by  everybody.

SIXTY -ONE 


TRAVEL  - SOUXD 


So  This  is  Ontario.  (2  Reels).  Ranging  far  and  wide  over  this 
Canadian  province  gives  you  a  chance  to  study  its  development  from 
the  earliest  days  up  to  the  present  time. 

Scotland.  (2  Reels).  The  beauties  of  nature  untouched  through 
the  centuries,  including  visits  to  the  Isles  of  lona  and  Staffa,  Fingal's 
Cave,  v^fhich   leave  an  indelible  impression  of  the  Land  of  the  Lochs. 

Little  Known  England.  (1  Reel).  In  an  area  of  20  miles  of 
Lavenham  in  East  Anglia  there  are  many  beautiful  buildings.  A 
visit  to  these  old-world  places  comes  to  the  screen,  while  Gatty  Sellars 
plays  a  sweet  organ  accompaniment. 

Cornwall.  (I  Reel).  Known  as  the  Riviera  of  the  British  Isles, 
Cornwall  offers  many  glorious  sights  to  charm  the  visitor  by  way 
of  the  cinema  screen. 

In  the  Shadow  of  the  Pyrenees.  (2  Reels).  All  the  quaint  customs 
and  some  modern  practices  too  of  the  tiny  State  of  Andorra  in  the 
Pyrenees,  intimately  described  by  R.  E.  Jeffrey. 

Western  Highlands.  (I  Reel).  The  heather-clad  glens,  lovely 
lochs  and  mist-shrouded  mountains  of  Scotland,  with  austere  Ben 
Nevis  towering  over  all. 

The  County  of  the  White  Rose.  (1  Reel).  Yorkshire  and  its  cele- 
brated moors  and  dales,  supplemented  by  the  history  of  the  county's 
ruins  and  a  visit  to  York  and  its  Minster. 

West  of  the  Andes.  (1  Reel).  Introducing  the  natural  gifts  of 
Chile  with  magnificent  views  of  the  Laja  Waterfalls. 

A  Nation's  Birthplace.  (2  Reels).  The  birthplace  of  Washington, 
Penn  and  the  original  pioneers  of  the  "Mayflower"  in  the  West 
Country  are  shown  with  their  connection  with  the  American  counter- 
part. 

Sentinel  Isle.  (2  Reels).  This  is  not  a  war  film,  but  the  strategic 
position  of  Ceylon  makes  it  an  important  stronghold  in  any  Far  East 
defence  plan.  This  then  is  a  film  dealing  with  the  island  and  its 
people.  The  history  of  Ceylon  is  lost  in  antiquity,  but  the  modern 
inhabitants  of  the  country  are  an  indulgent,  peace-loving  people 
following  the  same  primitive  crafts  as  their  forefathers,  but  enjoying 
the  advantages  that  go  with  membership  of  the  British  Common- 
wealth of  Nations.  The  fertile  soil  allows  them  to  live  free  and  easy 
lives  and  the  many  and  diverse  activities  of  the  population  are  shown 
in  the  film. 

Four  Thousand  Years.  (2  Reels).  Back  through  the  centuries  to 
the  land  of  Ancient  Egypt.  Back  three  thousand  years  and  more  to 
the  temples  of  the  Pharaohs,  the  Colossi  and  the  Valley  of  the  Kings. 
Egypt  has  always  possessed  a  fascination  for  Western  man  and  in 
this  film  we  visit  the  lesser  known  parts  of  the  ancient  country  and 
the  modern  cities  which  a  later  age  has  erected  on  historic  sites. 
This  land,  which  can  produce  the  century  old  glories  of  King  Tutan- 
khamen's tomb  and  a  race  meeting  at  the  Alexandria  Sporting  Club, 
is  a  country  of  surprises  and  the  film  is  novel  and  varied  entertain- 
ment.

the  Musical-Comedy  in  London.  In  the  early  1 900's  the  Music 
Hall  was  passing  through  a  very  difficult  period;  attendances  were 
poor  and  many  of  the  artistes  could  only  be  described  as  second 
rate.  It  was  into  this  despondent  and  topsy-turvy  world  that 
George  Howard  (Richard  Greene)  thrust  himself.  He  had  just 
arrived  from  Ireland  full  of  enthusiasm,  energy  and  plans,  but 
with  a  capital  which  hardly  matched  his  ideas.  This  film  then, 
portrays  his  struggles  and  victories,  his  gains  and  losses,  but 
above  all,  his  determination  to  present  to  the  world  some  of  the 
finest  Musical  Comedies  that  have  ever  graced  the  stage.  "  Gaiety 
George  "  is  a  film  with  human  appeal  that  will  delight  audiences  of

T969I  Roof    of    America.       (2    Reels).       This    is    a    record    of    the    Polish 

mountaineering  expedition  to  the  High  Andes,  in  a  remote  corner 
of  Argentina.  The  highest  mountain  of  the  group,  El  Mercedario 
and  .Aconcagua,  both  over  23,000  feet  in  height,  were  climbed  by 
the  expedition,  and  unique  pictures  were  taken  of  the  ascents. 
The  thrills  and  adventures  of  the  party  have  been  captured  by 
the  camera,  and  their  journey  through  the  strange,  unique  snow 
formations,  which  cover  acres  of  ground,  is  something  the  like  of 
which  has  not  previously  been  seen  on  the  screen.  The  full  rage 
of  a  storm  at  20,000  feet  above  sea  level  is  experienced,  and  we 
see  the  final  conquest  of  the  summits  by  men  who  have  to  fight 
for  every  step  they  take  by  reason  of  the  effect  of  the  high  alti- 
tude on  the  human  frame.  Men  who,  dragging  their  feet  behind 
them  step  by  step,  are  afraid  to  sit  down  because  the  effort  of 
getting  up  again  v^^ould  be  too  great. 

T9693  Land's   End   to  John  O'Groats.       (3   Reels).       True  to   its   title,  this 

film  follows  the  route  from  Land's  End,  in  Cornwall,  to  John 
O'Groats,  in  the  north  of  Scotland.  The  camera  takes  us  along 
the  pleasant  bye-ways  of  Devon,  Vk^here  we  see  something  of  the 
local  industries,  and  on  to  Wells  Vk^ith  its  magnificent  cathedral. 
Continuing  our  journey  we  pass  through  Gloucester,  Buxton  Spa 
and  on  to  Manchester.  Here  we  look  around  some  of  the  many 
industries.  The  famous  Manchester  Ship  Canal  is  next  visited 
and  carries  us  on  to  Liverpool,  the  city  of  shops.  Then  back 
into  the  open  country  again  to  enjoy  the  beauties  of  Cumberland, 
and  to  v^atch  the  fascinating  sheep  dog  trials  before  visiting 
Carlisle.  On  the  Scottish  border  we  visit  the  old  forge  at  Gretna 
Green  before  moving  on  to  the  fair  city  of  Edinburgh  and  the 
historic  town  of  Stirling.  The  Highland  scenery  has  much  ap- 
peal to  the  eye,  while  the  games  and  Scottish  reels,  danced  at 
Inverness,  reflect  the  true  spirit  of  Scotland.  And  so  on  to  John 
O'Groats,  where  our  picture  ends  with  some  fine  views  of  the 
Scottish  scene.  The  Commentary,  in  this  most  interesting 
documentary,  is  spoken  by  three  well-known  broadcasters, 
Michael  Brooke,  Frederick  Allen  and  James  Urquhart,  who  all 
contribute  much  to  the  interest. 

T9695  Across  the  Waters.       (2   Reels).       Throughout  the  ages,  whenever 

man,  in  his  wanderings,  has  found  his  progress  barred  by  a  river, 
he  has  devised  a  means  of  crossing  it.  Our  early  ancestors  had 
no  science  to  aid  them  and  were  compelled  to  use  a  tree  trunk 
either  as  a  raft  or  bridge.  This  film  illustrates  the  development 
of  many  varied  means  of  crossing  the  waters,  from  prehistoric 
times  to  the  present  day,  and  is  an  entertaining  and  original  ex- 
ample of  the  up-to-date  interest  subject. 

T9700  Men  of  Tomorrow.       (2  Reels).       Documentary.       This  film  shows

College  at  Pangbourne,  starting  with  early  morning  Reveille  and 
the  scamper  to  parade  for  exercises.  Throughout  the  day  various 
parts  of  the  college  are  visited,  the  Chart  Room  where  the  Cadets 
learn  navigation,  the  Seamanship  Room  where  teaching  is  assisted 
by  the  use  of  models.  In  another  part  of  the  building  models  of 
warships  of  every  description  are  seen  in  the  making.  Outdoors 
the  Cadets   learn   signalling,   rope  climbing  and   fencing  and  on  the

Thames  rowing  and  sailing  boats  are  handled  with  skill.  The 
film  has  a  grand  finale,  showing  the  Graduation  Parade  and  the 
march  past,  headed  by  the  massed  Cadet  Band.  From  here  men 
take  their  places  in  the  numerous  branches  of  the  Senior  Service 
to  ensure  that,  as  in  the  past,  in  the  future  too,  Brittania  Rules 
the    Waves. 

T970I  The    Last    Journey.       (I     Reel.)       Documentary.       From    the    Great

thousands  upon  thousands  of  his  subjects  paying  final  homage, 
the  procession  winds  its  way  slowly  to  Paddington  station  where

place  at  St.  George's  Chapel,  Windsor.

T/9732  Monsters.      Do   "  monsters  "   exist  ?      Many  authorities   assert  that 

they  are  just  figments  of  the  imagination,  but  there  are  others 
who  wonder.  .  .  .  Perhaps  you,  too,  are  sceptical.  This  little  film 
does  not  attempt  to  prove  or  disprove  any  particular  theory,  but 
merely  to  make  you  think. 

T/9738  The  Coronation  of  Her  Majesty  Queen  Elizabeth.  (2  Reels).

in  all  its  detail,  this  film  brings  to  you  the  full  significance  and 
history  of  the  Coronation  Service.  Here  is  a  film  which  will 
capture  your  imagination  and  stii  the  hearts  of  all  3'our  audi- 
ences  a     film    which    will     present    a     complete    and    permanent 

record  of  this  truly  great  occasion. 

T/9754  Thames    Valley.       (2    Reels.)       Much    has    been   written   about   Old 

Father  Thames,  but  generally  this  has  concentrated  on  that  por- 
tion so  loved  by  Londoners  as  a  whole.  This  film,  hov^^ever,  treats 
the  subject  in  a  different  manner  and  the  camera  is  used  to  take 
you  on  the  journey  from  the  Thames  source,  right  down  until  it 
reaches  the  Pool  of  London. 

T/9760  Christmas   Day   Round   the   World.    (I    Reel).    A   special  Christmas

mas Day,  showing  how  worshippers  in  many  lands  gather  to  give 
thanks  on  this  day  of  all  days.  This  film  is  released  in  sound  and 
silent    versions    and    is    certainly    a    must    for   all    Christmas    Shoves. 

T/9763  Our  Mr.  Shakespeare.    (4  Reels).  This  is  a  documentary  film  deal- 

ing w^ith  Stratford-on-Avon  and  its  associations  with  Shakespeare. 
Many  beauty  spots  and  historical  buildings  of  Warwickshire, 
several  of  which  are  referred  to  in  the  plays,  are  also  shown.  The 
Memorial  Theatre  is  visited  and  a  scene  from  "  Hamlet  "  is  seen. 
Later  there  is  an  excerpt  from  "'  Romeo  and  Juliet  "  at  the  annual 
celebration  at  Southw^ark.  The  detail  is  interesting  and  varied  and 
is  skilfully  assembled,  the  commentary  is  informative  and  the 
photography  excellent.  The  film  is  refreshingly  off  the  beaten 
track    and   is    good    entertainment. 


Instructional 


IXSTRUCTIONAL 


These  three  sound  releases  were  sf'0)tsored  by  the  Men's 
Chronicle  in  order  to  provide  correct  athletic  instruction 
from  the  z'ery  beginning  for  the  young  athletes  of  this 
Country.  The  instruction  and  commentary  is  excellently 
made  on  the  films  by  Geoffrey  Dyson,  Chief  National 
Coach  to  the  Amateur  Athletic  Association.  The  films 
sho7i'  Mr.  Dyso)!  coaching  a  squad  of  boys  and  girls  and 
by  this  means  the  viewer  of  the  film  can  feel  that  she 
or  he  is  joining  in  with  the  class  at  i)istruction.  The 
films  are  so  well  made  that  audiences  of  all  ages  can 
zcatch  and  learn  the  finer  points  of  athletics  even  if  they 
have  no  intention  of  participating  on  the  running  track. 
The  aim  of  the  film,  as  was  stated  at  the  beginning,  is 
to  assist  the  young  athlete,  but  zve  feel  that  anyone 
interested  in  athletics  will  be  extremely  interested  in  this 
modern  method  of  coaching  athletes  to  world  class. 


T/9767  The  Young  Athlete,  Sprinting  and  Hurdling  (2  reels)    The  first  part 

this  film  is  devoted  to  sprinting.  By  means  of  demonstration  and 
instruction  to  the  squad  the  Chief  National  Coach  explains  the 
starting  position,  accelerating  from  the  start,  the  arm  swing,  the 
sprinting  angle  and  finishing.  In  the  section  of  the  film  teaching 
hurdling,  emphasis  is  given  to  the  fact  that  this  is  a  sprinting 
event.  To  this  end  the  squad  are  first  taught  to  sprint  over  canes 
on  the  ground  v/hich  are  raised  progressively  and  the  necessary 
modification  in  technique  involving  the  running  action,  the  lateral 
swinging  of  the  rear  leg,  the  use  of  the  arms  and  the  forward 
lean  are  demonstrated.  Throughout  the  film  valuable  use  is  made 
of   the   slow   motion   camera. 

T/9768  The   Young   Athlete,   The   High  Jump    (2    Reels)       This   film   shows 

that  the  Vvestern  Roll  is  a  method  of  jumping  which  can  be  learned 
by  any  boy  or  girl.  First  the  merits  of  the  layout  are  made  clear 
and  the  progressions  are  shown  from  the  elementary  hop  to  the 
finished  Western  Roil  as  demonstrated  by  a  national  champion. 
Mr.  Dyson  puts  his  squad  of  young  people  through  all  these  stages 
of  the  jump,  which  they  have  mastered  by  the  end  of  the  film. 
Details  of  technique  are  brought  to  light  by  some  remarkable 
sequence  shots  in  slow  inotion  and  instruction  includes  both  work 
in  the  field  and  in  the  gymnasium.  The  film  shows  many  valuable 
devices  for  teaching  the  jump  vi^hich  will  be  a  great  aid  to  coaches. 

T/9769  The  Young  Athlete,  Hozl'  to  Throzv  the  Jaz'clin    (2  Reels)         There 

is  a  greater  interest  in  javelin  throwing  in  Britain  now  than  ever 
before  and  many  schools  have  introduced  the  event  into  their 
athletic  programme.  When  boys  and  girls  are  shown  how^  to  throw 
the  javelin  correctly,  they  not  only  throw  it  farther,  they  also 
derive  more  fun,  enjoyment  and  real  benefit  from  it.  In  this  film 
the  throwing  technique  of  a  junior  champion  is  thoroughly 
analysed  in  slo%v  motion  and  suitable  leading-up  stages  for  school 
and  club  use  are  clearly  defined.  Many  of  the  progressions  recom- 
mended by  the  Chief  National  Coach  may  be  used  both  in  and 
out-of-doors;  they  cover  the  hold,  carry,  running  with  the  javelin, 
the    transition    strides    from    run    to    throw    and    the    throw    itself.

out  for  an  airing  everyone  conspires  to  wake  the  slumbering  babe. 
Musicians  at  practice,  the  radio  station  Y.A.P.,  a  giant  liner  sound- 
ing its  siren  and  steel  erectors  hammering  away  are  all  silenced 
in  Popeye's  own  style.  Even  the  terrific  hooting  of  a  traffic  block 
fails  to  wake  the  infant.  But  the  mere  ping  of  a  safety-pin  drop- 
ping   to    the    ground    brings   the   sleeper   to   screaming   life. 

T94  71  Seasin's    Greetinks.  (1     Reel).  Betwixt    Popeye    and    the    Big

can village  to  visit  Olive  Oyl  his  pleasure  is  spoiled  by  Bluto  the 
Bandit,  who  comes  to  shoot-up  the  cafe.  It  takes  not  a  little 
courage  and  a  lot  of  spinach  for  Popeye  to  prove  his  prowess  in 
markmanship  and  mastery  of  Bluto  to  whom  he  finally  administers 
a   knockout,   carrying  the   big  fellow    right   round  the   world. 

T94  73  I  Yam  What  I  Yam.       (I    Reel).       While  Popeye  and  Olive  Oyl  are 

on  an  island  Indian  warriors  plan  to  make  their  stay  uncomfort- 
able. When  Popeye  is  exploring  the  interior  of  the  isle,  some  of 
the  braves  are  surrounding  a  shack  built  in  the  sailor's  devastating 
style.  His  highly  amusing  wanderings  over,  Popeye  returns  to 
the  homestead  and  quickly  settles  accounts  with  the  invaders, 
finally  crowning  himself  "Big  Cheese". 

T94  74  I  Eats  My  Spinach.       (I    Reel).      Spain's  national  sport  is  of  great 

appeal  to  Popeye.  While  he  is  outdoing  the  performance  of  a 
real  matador,  the  bull-fighter  is  carrying  off  Olive  Oyl.  Soon 
bull  and  Popeye  are  careering  after  captor  and  captive  and  all

another  inhabitant  of  the  island  is  seizing  Olive  Oyl  and  carrying 
her    off    into    the    jungle.  Little    things    like    that    do    not    worry 

Popeye  when  he  has  had  his  spinach.  He  doles  out  punishment 
to  offenders  and  a  brand  new  wardrobe  of  fur  coats  to  his  beloved. 

T9476  Parade   of    the    Wooden    Soldiers.  (I    Reel).  The    lively    tune 

fitted  to  action  provides  you  with  a  cartoon  that  could  not  be 
more  amusing  nor  more  whimsical.  To  the  strains  of  the  ever- 
green melody  Betty  Boop  is  delivered  to  the  Toy  Shop,  there  to 
be  crowned  Queen.  Only  one  toy  disagrees  and  plans  to  steal 
her  away  in  the  middle  of  the  coronation.  As  Betty  is  being 
carried  off,  the  wooden  soldiers  come  to  her  succour.  After  the 
battle-royal  many  toys  go  to  the  second-hand  shelves.  Rubinoff 
and    his   orchestra   provide   the   musical    interpretation. 

T94  7  7  Old   Man  of  the  Mountains.       (1    Reel).       Cab  Calloway,   leader  of 

a  world-famous  orchestra,  and  Max  Fleischer  have  combined  to

tells  of  the  old  rascal  who  is  held  in  terror  by  villagers  and  of 
Betty  Boop's  bearding  of  the  Old  Man  in  his  den.  (Not  recom-

of  a  strange  fate  which  nearly  befalls  one  of  Betty  Boop"s  little 
friends  who  stray  in  pursuit  of  a  nice,  fat  worm,  and  gets  in  the 
path  of  the  Tom  Cats  Social  Club  careering  on  its  way  to  an

T94  79  I   Heard.         (1    Reel).        With   Don   Redman  and  his  Band  playing

Tavern,  in  the  Land  of  Never  Mine.  Both  above  and  in  the  mine 
there  is  much  a'doing,  especially  when  Gas  Ghosts  are  discovered 
down   the  pit. 

T9480  She    Wronged    Him    Right.        (I     Reel).       Max    Fleischer    takes   you 

back  to  the  time  when  villains  wore  a  black,  curly  moustache  and 
had  mortgages  as  their  favourite  stock  in  trade,  to  the  time  when 
heroines  had  no  place  to  rest  their  weary  heads  and  the  hero 
seemed  as  though  he  v^rould  never  make  his  entrance.  Here  is 
one  of  these  old  dramas  with  all  the  trimmings,  all  the  pathos  and 
bathos  of  stage  craft  of  days  gone  by.  In  these  days  it  is  far  too 
good  a  comedy  to  be  missed. 

T948I  Betty  Boop's   Halowe'en  Party.       (I    Reel).       Taking  you  deep  into

in  the  way  of  tricks. 

T950I  You    Gotta    Be    a    Football    Hero.       (I     Reel).       Popeye    and    Olive 

have  different  ideas  about  the  merits  of  the  former's  team  in  which 
he  packs  as  a  demon.  Popeye  scores  the  winning  try  against  the 
Giants,  this  altering  Olive's  mind. 

T9502  King    of    the   Mardi   Gras.       (I    Reel).       Popeye   and   Bluto    as   rival

steal    each    other's    thunder.  Eventually,    Bluto    steals    Olive    Oyl

George,  paints  the  town  red,  and  by  the  dawn  the  latter  finds  him-

ised to  accommodate  his  wealthy  uncle,  Victor  reluctantly  allows

The  finder  has  a  lot  of  trouble  getting  into  the  doctor's  clinic  and 
very  much  more  when  once  inside.

man-about-tovi'n  are  thrown  together  by  fantastic  forces  of  cir-

an  hotel  magnate,  that  he  sends  him  to  the  South  of  France  to 
become  a  waiter.  The  young  man  goes — and  in  his  own  inimit- 
able way  succeeds  in  arranging  for  his  valet  and  his  newly-found 
inspiration  to  accompany  him.  They  decide  to  enter  the  hotel 
business  together,  and  their  enthralling  adventures  hilariously  set 
the  Riviera  alight.

T/9733  Return    Fare    To    Laughter.       (3     Reels).      This    film    is    perhaps 

best  described  as  an  "Animated  Scrapbook"  of  40  to  50  years 
ago,  illustrated  not  by  newsreels  but  w^ith  film  productions 
enacted    during    the    Edwardian    decade.  The    emphasis    is    on 

comedy  and  laughter  makers  of  old.  The  ingenuity  displayed 
in  the  creation  of  these  movies  will  hold  you  amused,  fascinated 
and  amazed  in  turn.  Indeed,  nothing  daunted  the  hardy  film 
pioneers,  their  energy  was  tireless,  their  enthusiasm  intense.

PRIDE  OF  POSSESSION 


It  would  be  difficult,  if  not  impossible,  to  form  a  complete 
list  of  one's   individual  possessions. 

Supposing  you  try. 

/.  Motor  cor,  horse  or  bicycle. 

2.  House,  flat  or  caravan. 

3.  Grandfather  c/ock,  alarm  clock  or  wristwatch. 

4.  Etc.,  etc.,  etc. 

Even  material  things  v/ill  make  a  surprising  list  and  you  would 
probably  miss  quite  a  number. 

You  will  certainly  be  missing  much  more  if  you  cannot  add 
the  following  or  something  on  similar  lines. 

5.  A  friend's  smile. 

6.  Your  wife  with  junior  in  her  arms. 

7.  Junior's  first  steps. 

8.  The  everyday  local  things  in  which  you  find  happiness 
—  in  the  garden,  the  sports  club,  the  swimming 
bath,  etc. 

9.  Holidays,  from  the  world  cruise  down  to  local 
ramble. 

You  can  place  these  and  many,  many  happy  moments 
on  record  with  a  Pathescope  cine  camera  and  much  as 
your  appreciation  of  professionally  made  films  may  foe  you 
will  find  your  own  personal  films  will  at  once  take  pride 
of  place  for  your  audiences.
