INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROJECTING FILMS
1 Do not run any film borrowed from this Depart
ment on a silent projector State Department
films are all sound and must be shown on a
16mm sound projector
2 Be sure that the film track and aperture of the
projector are cleaned after each reel of film is
run
3 Allow only an experienced projectionist to run
the projector and see that the projectionist re
mains near the machine at all times so that it
can be cut off if damage starts to occur
4 When ready to project a film remove it from the

tape used to hold down the front end of the film
Save this piece of tape for holding down the film
end before returning to the plastic shipping case
5 Thread the film into the projector carefully
seeing that the film is properly engaged in
the sprockets and that the loops are carefully
formed above and below the film gate After
threading the machine roll by hand if the
provision is available or switch the motor on
briefly and then off so as to observe the film
movement for proper threading Be sure to
use the same size of reel for the takeup as
the one the film is mounted on
6 After starting the projection of the picture feel
the film after it comes from the machine to the
takeup reel Frequent feeling of the film permits
detection of any damage that may be occurring
Damaged film feels rough or torn and by twisting
the film into the light reflections scratches can
easily be detected
7 After the film has been run remove the reel of
film from the takeup position stick down the
film end and return it to its proper case
8 Be extremely careful when rewinding films as
there is always danger of breaking films
9 After the last showing stick the film end down
with the masking tape provided and return to
the proper case Before mailing be sure to check
each film to see that is not rewound place in
the proper case and turn over the address card
on the outside of the case for mailing back to the
