Quotation Suggested by Dr. Charles L. Allen, Pastor, Grace Methodist Church, Atlanta, for this dedication. %
DEDICATION
This edition of the State Department of Education's Film Catalog is respectfully dedicated to the Honorable Cosby Smith Hubbard who has had an unusually large and leading part in establishing the largest educational film library in the world.
Mr. Hubbard is regarded as one of the outstanding educational leaders of Georgia, the South and the Nation. He has given unselfishly his life to the teaching profession and the children of Georgia. He is a Christian gentlemen, interested in religious, governmental and civic affairs of his community and state.
Mr. Hubbard was educated in the public schools of Cherokee' County, the A & M School at Clarkesville, Tallulah Falls Institute at Tallulah Falls, Piedmont College at Demorest, and the University of Georgia at Athens. He was the first boarding student at Tallulah Falls Institute and became the first teacher of Vocational Agriculture to be employed in Georgia.
His life has been one of service. He has been State Director of Textbook, Film and Library Services for the past eighteen years and is responsible for the national reputation that each of these services has attained. He is past president of the Southeastern Free Textbook Association, a member of the Board of Stewards of Grace Methodist Church and has served in the General Assembly in both the House of Representatives and the State Senate. He was principal of Baldwin High School, Baldwin, Georgia, for a quarter of a century and holds a Life Professional Normal Certificate and a Life Professional High School Certificate in the field of Vocational Agriculture.
On Winds of Time
Out on the winds of tim.e our hearts are borne In swift succession through the rain and sun. Bravely, with dreams for wings, they greet each morn And, weary when the day's full course is run. Find sorrow's surcease in the balm of night And hours to fashion lovely thoughts anew As pinions for tomorrow's certain flight. On wings again, through skies now dull, now blue, Serenely will they journey on, our hearts, Though shaken by fierce, unrelenting storms And wounded by pain's many-thousand forms; For life is kind that with her stress imparts A love that beckons courage, quiets fears, And rides the winds of time beside our years.

F o r e wo r
The Georgia State Department of Education is continuing to offer to its teachers the largest and finest collection of 16mm educational sound pictures to be found in any state in the nation. Georgia teachers have a wealth of teaching material at their command, which is enriching the learning experience of their students.
This is perhaps the largest and finest list of non-sponsored sound films being offered by any state in the Union. We feel that this type of educational offering is delightfully interesting and professionally worthwhile. The proper use of films in the schools can and will shorten teaching time, increase the average educational level, and open up interesting, constructive, challenging and inspiring new worlds for pupils who are eager to learn.
Your fine, sympathetic spirit of cooperation is making it possible for the State Department of Education to render a larger and more efficient service year by year. This catalog contains hundreds of new up-to-theminute films--the finest that our professional committees have been able to find. With such a wide variety of 16mm sound films to choose from, it becomes more important than ever that teachers use greater care in the selection and use of the material. We sincerely trust that you will use the material as it is intended--that is, to instruct and enrich the learning experiences of your students.

Introductio n
This catalog contains descriptions of all the films available from the State Department of Education Film Libraries for the school years 195556. Due to the expense of such a catalog, it will be used for three years, 1955-56, 1956-57 and 1957-58. We earnestly ask your cooperation in preserving your copies of this catalog at the end of each school year so that they can be used for the following year. We regret that copies for individual teachers will not be available due to the expense involved. However, we feel that we will be in position to furnish three catalogs for each school registration. Two additional catalogs will be sent upon completion of your" application for the use of films.
This collection of films constitutes the largest library of singly owned 16mm educational sound films in the world and no other state in the Union offers materials to its teachers on such a liberal basis as the Georgia Department of Education.
The Department operates four Film Libraries located in strategic sections of the state to make distribution as easy as possible. During 195455 more than 162,000 films were sent to approximately 1,200 Georgia schools. Sufficient prints are now available to furnish more than seventy per cent of all requests made by the schools within the week requested. In November, 1955, the Audio-Visual Unit will complete eight years of film distribution.
The service has now been extended to the Public Libraries of the state on the same basis as to the schools. In addition to this, a library of films has been started for long-term loan to the Public Book Libraries. This service to the Book Libraries is intended for use only in the promotion of the community programs of the Libraries and will be used principally at the adult level.
A new unit, a tape duplicating service with more than 3,000 programs from which to choose, was started in February of 1955. A catalog, "Tapes for Teaching," is available by writing to The Tape Recording Service located with the Atlanta Film Library, provided you have tape recorders for using the material.
I want to thank the Atlanta Staff for the fine work done on this Catalog and also Miss Nell Swint for her assistance. Many thanks are due to Mr. Emery A. Maddox, Jr., for compiling the very fine subject field index. This index should prove to be of great value to all teachers.
The entire unit wishes to thank each and everyone who has cooperated in helping to make this program possible. Your continued cooperation and suggestions for the betterment of the service are welcome at all times.

REGISTERING YOUR SCHOOL
Films are furnished free to the Public Schools of Georgia with the exception of a $10.00 registration fee per school year, (after January 15 of each year the fee is only $5.00), which is used to purchase insurance on the material. Films are also furnished to any school related group, such as the P.T.A., Athletic Club, 4-H Club or Home Economics Club provided the School is registered. Films are not available to individuals or private institutions.
Principals should fill in form AV-1, "Registration for Service," appointing a film co-ordinator, and mail this form to one of the four Film Libraries serving Georgia. (Consult Location of Film Libraries on pages xii, and xiii of this catalog.)
Forms for requesting films (AV-2 )are furnished by this Division and all requests must be made on these forms. Sample copy of the request blank is shown on page xvi.
DUTIES OF THE FILM COORDINATOR
Briefly, it will be the duty of the Film Coordinator to:
1. Prepare all requests for films. (See detailed instructions)
2. Receive and distribute the material to the teacher using it.
3. Assist teachers with equipment; see that the material is previewed and properly used.
4. Assemble the material and return to the Film Library the afternoon of the last "play date," (films are booked for two days' use), and in no case later than the following morning.
5. Make requests for films for use on special occasions (use regular request blanks), explaining what the films are to be used for.
6. Make arrangements with the principal for "time off" in order to properly handle the audio-visual program.
DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR COORDINATORS
Note to Principals and Coordinators:
Please read these instructions before registering your school for the use of films. Be sure that you thoroughly understand how to make your requests and use one of the plans below. This will avoid delays. Principals should appoint coordinators and see that sufficient time is allowed for the coordinator to perform the duties related to this work. This is important and necessary for your audio-visual program to operate properly.
1. Register your school, using Form AV-1, with the Library serving your area with a fee of $10.00. After January 15 each year the fee will be $5.00 for the balance of the school year. Make checks payable to State Board of Education. Please do not send cash. No refunds can be made.
2. All requests must be made on the official request blanks. (Form AV-2). Keep some on hand at all times. Notify us before you get out.
3. The quota for each Registration is 8 films per week for the 1955-56 term. If your enrollment exceeds 500 students, two fees can be paid and 16 films booked per week. If it is necessary to change film allotment from year to year, schools will be notified in advance.
4. Do not ask for a film to be reserved unless you intend using it. This might deprive another school the use of the film that really needs it.
5. Make your requests in one of the following ways.
a. For the entire school year all at one time. Send a supplementary list of second choices at the same time if you wish. (If you use this method, additional requests for classroom use cannot be honored during the year.)
b. For a term or semester all at one time. Send a supplementary list of second choices at the same time if you wish. (No additional requests can be accepted during the term or semester.)
c. By the month and at least a full month's requests all at one time. September and October requests should be made together. During the balance of the year, send requests for only one month at a time and send them 30 days in advance; otherwise the Library may not have time to book the material. Send a supplementary list of second choices at the same time if you wish. (No additional requests will be honored for classroom use during the month.)
Requests not made in accordance with one of the above ways will be returned. Your cooperation will help us to do a better job for you.
6. Be sure to give correct titles and catalog number of each film. Films are pulled by catalog number and it is imperative that the Shipping Clerks have the correct number of the films that you request.
7. If an occasional film is needed for school related groups or outside meetings, these can be requested provided the REASON and the EXACT DATE of use is given. Always list a second and third choice. Please state that the films can only be used on the date you list.
8. No admission charge can be made by the users of films borrowed from the State Department of Education. Users must agree to this provision in order to obtain films from the State Film Libraries.
9. Start with the first date that you wish to use films and follow a progressive date sequence to the end of the period for which you are making your requests. Do not mix the months or the dates.
10. Coordinators must sign each request, with name of school, complete street address and town. Requests cannot be accepted from anyone else.
11. The extra-activity films cannot be booked without the reason for their use being given. (These films are not to be used in the classroom, only for outside meetings. Please observe this limitation and do not request for school use.)
12. When it is necessary for films to be cancelled, always return the Confirmation before shipment is to be made by the Film Library. Check the space at the bottom of the blank indicating cancellation and send to your Library so that concellation can be accomplished before the shipping date shown in the lower left hand corner of slip.
13. Be sure that films are in the right cans before returning. Also, send films back on the same size reel as you receive them. Do not send the 400 ft. round hubbed reels. They are not acceptable, only straight-sided ones.
14. Please do not send bent or damaged reels to your Film Library that you receive from some other source. State Department of Education's reels are all properly marked with a special ink so that they can be recognized by your Film Library. Good, straight-sided, steel reels will be exchanged with users, but damaged reels not bearing the special marking of your Film Library will be returned to you for replacing.
15. Each film is sealed with an inspection seal, and it will be impossible to use the film unless this seal is broken. If for some reason you cannot use the film, make sure the seal is not broken. If seal is broken we must assume that you used the film and inspect it. In this case notices about rewinding will go out.
16. FILM DAMAGE! Never allow anyone to attempt to run the projector that is not experienced and qualified. Free practice reels of film will be sent coordinators by your Film Libraries for teaching personnel to project films. Remember that most film damage occurs while the "expert" projectionist is relaxing at the projector. Never use scotch tape to repair films. This usually causes more damage. Your projector dealer will teach your personnel to operate your projector. Ask him.
17. DO NOT REWIND FILMS. After showing a film do not rewind it. Always wait and only rewind when you are ready to re-show film. Returning more than three films rewound will cause suspension of the service. This is necessary if we are to maintain the service on such a vast scale.
18. Always return the films in the same cases in which you receive them. Otherwise, the postage may be incorrect and the parcel will be delayed. Always leave shipping tickets in cases and this will help you determine the right cases for the films. Do not get the tops of the cases mixed.
19. Always return films promptly and never hold over for any reason. This causes the next school to lose the use of the material.
20. Be sure to indicate school holidays on each request blank and do not ask for films on those days.
21. Be sure to make arrangements to train some other teacher to properly handle your Audio-Visual duties during any time that you are absent from school. This is important and constitutes one of the most important duties of a coordinator. Serving as coordinator usually requires more time than other extra duties given a teacher and Principals should allow sufficient time off for these duties.
22. Immediately notify your Film Library for any irregularity.
HOW TO USE THIS CATALOG
Films are listed alphabetically and by Subject Field. By referring to the subject field section you will find all the films on that subject, listed under the respective headings. Under the alphabetical listing, a description of each film is given. Those titles starting with "A" and "The" are listed, giving the second word as the first word and with "A" and "The" coming after the other part of the title.
When asking for films to be reserved, the title and catalog number should be given. The catalog number follows the title. Do not write in the other spaces. (See sample copy of Request Blank on next page).
SAMPLE COPY OF REQUEST BLANK
\
i
\
vt
%
1
The sample copy of the request blank, shown on the preceeding page properly filled in, will give you some idea of the proper way to make up your requests. Request blanks should contain complete information as given on the sample copy.
If there are substitute requests that you can use in case some of your first choices are not available, we suggest that you make up a supplementary request for films. Use additional request blanks and mark them supplementary or second choice. For example, if there is another film that you can use instead of the first film listed on the sample copy, "Beautiful Dreamer," list it on your second choice sheet and give the same date and same position on the sheet. If there is some other film that you can use instead of the film, "Leaves," which is listed on the sample copy, list it on Line No. 7 of your second choice list with the same date.
After your requests are received we will book and confirm to you the time that it will be possible to ship the films to you. Users can be assured that the library will do everything possible to send films on dates wanted, and if this is not possible, then they will be sent the nearest available date. Teachers will realize that our situation is not unlike that of the school librarian. When a new book arrives there may be ten students who want to read the book the same week. The only way ten students can read the new book is for it to be reserved for them at later dates.
A 1 reel film usually runs for approximately 10 minutes, and the length of films is listed on the last column after each title. A film marked 2 reels will run for approximately 20 minutes but may vary several minutes either way.

SUGGESTIONS FOR SELECTING AND USING TEACHING FILMS
Georgia Teachers should acquaint themselves with the films listed in this catalog which relate to their particular fields of instruction, selecting and using those which will supplement and enrich their teaching, remembering always that the film alone cannot take the place of the teacher.
Authorities are agreed that the film makes its greatest contribution to the learning situation when used as a natural part of the lesson, under the same conditions under which the class usually meets. It is true that many schools will have difficulties providing suitable projection conditions for the individual classrooms and will have to use some room in the building where these facilities are available. This necessitates the moving of the class through the building when a film is to be used in the lesson plan. It is better to have one room properly darkened and ventilated than to have all the rooms half darkened and no ventilation. The State School Architect will gladly help you plan your room for the use of AudioVisual Aids.
The use of a classroom film requires essentially the same teacher and student participation which is present in all good teaching and learning situations. A film should only be used to help the teacher develop definite objectives. This requires much planning by the teacher before the film is shown.

Selecting the Film
The teacher should select the film some time in advance of the lesson, and after film has been DooKed and confirmation received, notice the date that the film can be sent to you and plan your lesson accordingly. When the film arrives, preview it -- reviewing its content and take down teaching cues and points to be looked for in the film. Teacher handbooks or guides are available for use with most films. These are inexpensive and should be in every school library. Those film descriptions with an asterisk following have guides available. These guides can be ordered directly from the producer.
The following questions may serve as a guide to teachers in selecting effective films:
1. What is my teaching problem ? Will a sound film help ?
2. Does the film offer sufficient material directly related to the teaching problem ?
3. Is the presentation suited to the learning level of the class ?
4. Will the running time of the film allow sufficient time in the class period for adequate introduction and followup discussions ?
5. Is the material presented, technically accurate and appropriate to the local teaching problem?
Using the Film
Teachers must remember that films are not automatic self-teaching devices. Audio-Visual materials will make teaching more effective. A film is effective only when the lesson in which it is used has been carefully planned. The film presentation must be integrated with previous student experiences and there should be a follow-up discussion.
The following is presented as an ideal teaching plan for an individual film. This plan can be adapted for use of other aids. If it is impractical to use this entire plan, you may adapt it to fit your local needs, using the principles laid down to insure that your students will have new experiences and that your teaching objectives will be achieved.
A SUGGESTED TEACHING PLAN FOR AN INDIVIDUAL FILM
Step
Purpose
Timing
Procedure
1. Homework assigned for pupils
To review related subject matter and be prepared for film showing.
One to two days before the film is shown.
Review any previous class work the film will cover or is related to. Ask purposeful questions from the film text. Connect other fields of interest. Have students write or orally present their ideas.
2. Preparation of the class
To stimulate interest in the film. To review what has already been studied and to avoid vocabulary difficulties.
For 10 to 15 minutes before film showing.
, Proceed from the known to the unknown. Tie in the new learning situation with past lessons and experiences of the students. Make sure that all students can pronounce and understand new words in the film.
3. Discussion of objectives
To establish in the students' minds the main purposes of the film.
Just before the film Is shown.
Discuss or have students write down objectives. Be sure that each student understands the meaning of each objective. Answers should be learned from the film text.
4. PRESENT FILM AT THIS POINT UNDER BEST POSSIBLE CONDITIONS Darkened Room -- Ventilation Good -- Seating Properly Arranged - Use Good Projector.
5. Check-up
To determine if class understood details of thought sequences presented in the film.
Just after the film is shown.
Conduct a Film Quiz of 3 to 5 questions, either oral or written. This will reveal misunderstandings and verbal recall will usually clear up any difficulties. Be sure to check vocabulary.
6. Achievement of objectives
To derive from the film the aims as discussed under Step 3, above.
At the close of the class period or at the next class meeting.
This can be determined by class discussion. Conclusions must be drawn from the students, if incorrect conclusions have been formed steps for reteaching should be taken.
7. Follow-up assignments
To apply what has been learned and to "channel" interest stimulated by the film.
As soon as individual interests can be discovered a>nd not later than next class session.
Students will usually indicate in some manner their interests, and they should be encouraged to explore the subject further and perform independent or group research.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROJECTING FILMS
1. Always project films under the best possible conditions. See that the room is darkened, adequately ventilated, and that the seating is properly arranged.
2. Do not run any film borrowed from this Department on a silent projector. USE NOTHING BUT SOUND PROJECTORS. The films are all sound.
3. Be sure that the film track and aperture of your projector are cleaned after every reel of film is run. Film damage is expensive and unnecessary.
4. Allow only an experienced projectionist to run the projector and see that projectionist remains near the machine at all times so that it can be cut off if damage starts to occur.
5. Whenever you are ready to project a film, remove it from the film case and can, leaving the pink shipping ticket
in the case so that the same film and can may be replaced in the same case when the film is ready to be returned to
your Film Library. Remove the small piece of masking tape which is used to hold down the front of the film and
stick the tape on the edge of your projector to be used later.
,
6. It is recommended that some sort of liquid film conditioner be applied to the side of the film at this point just before it is placed on the projector. This will lubricate the film in such a manner so that the film will go through your projector with a great deal more ease and will greatly lessen the possibility of film damage.
7. Thread the film into your 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, it should be rolled by hand or the motor switch flipped on and off quickly and the film observed at each sprocket to see that it is properly engaged and that you do not lose the loops above or below the film gate.
8. After starting the projecting of the picture, feel of the film after it comes from the machine and just before it winds onto the take-up reel. By frequently feeling of the film at this position, it will be very easy to detect any damage that might be occurring. The film will feel rough or torn and by twisting the film into the light reflections, scratches can easily be detected.
9. See that the projectionist remains at or near the machine at all times and that the film is frequently checked as indicated above in order to avoid extensive film damage.
10. After the film has been run, remove the reel of film from the take-up, take the masking tape and stick down the end of the film and replace the film in the film can. DO NOT REWIND THE FILM AFTER SHOWING. Always wait until you are ready to show the film the second time before rewinding; then if the occasion should arise that you do not get to show the film, it can be returned not rewound.
11. When rewinding films, be extremely careful since there is always danger of breaking or further damaging the film. Remember that the rewinds are extremely fast and it is a good idea to apply a little pressure on the side of the reel of film with the hand by using a handkerchief or a small piece of cardboard to protect your fingers. This will insure that the rewound film will be tight on the reel, and this "braking" also helps to avoid accidental breakage or damage of the film. After starting the rewind, do not stop it unless some trouble occurs and should it become necessary to stop the rewind, always "brake" the reel of film that is being rewound by applying pressure on the side of the film reel as indicated above. This will always avoid breakage of the film and keep the film from unwinding on the floor.
12. If a film is broken for any reason -- do not use scotch tape or other substances on the film. This usually causes more damage -- and may cause suspension of service. Pull film down, re-thread and wind end of film around take-up reel.
13. After the last showing of the film, the film should not be rewound but stick the end of the film down and place it into the proper film can and place the film can back into the same case in which it was received. Be careful that the lids for the various cans that you may have on hand do not become mixed and that the lids of the cases properly fit the bottoms of the cases. Place the lid on the case so that the strap crosses the narrowest width of the address card. Before the films are placed in the mail to be returned to the Film Library, the coordinator should check for the following:
a. See that each film is not rewound. b. See that the proper film is in the proper can and that the same film is returned in the same case in which
it was received. c. See that the address card is turned over and that the address of your Film Library is on the outside of the case.
14. Follow the manufacturer's instruction for oiling and caring for the projector. See that you have a brush with which to clean the film gate. Your projector is a fine electronic instrument and should receive proper care if you expect it to give good service.
15. Please do not allow your projector to become badly worn for the lack of care, proper inspection and repairs, to the extent that it will, perhaps, do hundreds of dollars worth of film damage before its condition is known. Yearly inspection and overhaul by your dealer or a competant repairman is highly important and is advised for the proper maintenance and care of your projector.
\

You cannot harm the projector by using it. There is nothing in the usual handling that will damage the machine. Oil after each three hours of running time and clean film gate before each film is run. A brush is necessary. Use carbontetrachloride or vitafilm to remove hardened deposits. Anytime a film is burned in the projector, clean film gate thoroughly.
mQ>
Your projector should never be stopped to study single frames. The danger of film damage outweighs the value. Always stop projector still before reversing.
x\
Always see that your projector is properly threaded before starting it. Check each sprocket and both loops. Roll projector by hand or switch machine on and off to check.
%
PLEASE return the film
'
Operators should "feel the film" along the sprocket holes every few feet while the film is being projected. Damage to film can be restricted to a few feet by this precaution.
Select the same size empty reel for the film you are showing.
For further information and assistance about the operation of your projector or the proper training of projectionists, call or write the dealer or salesman that sells and services your make of projector.

to gain his prospect's interest and confidence, get his favorable attention and turn that attention to a positive interest

and what he looks like, too. Salesmen of the Breezy Boy type, the Big Operator type and the Apologetic type never get past
this secretary's desk. Her boss, Mr. Wilson, says that he looks for good grooming, good carriage and manners, good
speech -- traits hard to define, but any lack, such as loud dress, furtiveness, or over-familiarity, starts him thinking of
the fastest way to get rid of his visitor. He says that he is influenced, too, by his interest in what the salesman repre-

Better Farms for a Greater Georgia, el-jh-sh, (Color)
4029
3 reels
Several years ago Cason J. Callaway's vision and enterprise led him to undertake a crusade for the betterment of Georgia
agriculture. As a result, this new color motion picture was made and released. It clearly illustrates the philosophy of
the "Calloway 100 Georgia Better Farms" plan. The film was produced under the direction of Bert Robinson of The Soil
Conservation Service. In the beginning the film shows that Georgia is a great and varied State. It emphasizes her wealth
of natural resources; points out the extensiveness of her woodlands and naval stores' operations; the importance of agricul-
ture and industry and dependence one upon the other; the growth of her cities, large and small, good schools and universi-
ties, modern homes, good hospitals, recreation centers, and churches. From here the picture moves to agriculture, explain-
ing that over a period of a century or more a great deal of Georgia's agriculture has been hurt--damaged--and the people
along with the land are sick., until now nearly one-half of our arable land contributes almost nothing to society. It is
clearly pointed out that something needs to be done, for something can be done -- that brokendown farm land can be re-
vitalized, that it can be made to work again for its wages. The four main objectives outlined by Mr. Callaway are: "First,
we must improve out soil; second, we must have long-term low interest commercial credit; third, we must mechanize our
farms: and fourth, we must have processing plants near our farms. '--Strickland

Nearly everywhere you look, you will see men controlling power. In many cases, human lives depend on how these men
control and use that power. Jerry, a high school student, is ordinarily a courteous, considerate young man, recognized for
his good sportsmanship. Behind the wheel of a car, however, he becomes a different person. He allows the "borrowed"
power of the car to transform his actions to such an extent that his usual good sportsmanship disappears and he slips
into bad driving practices. Bad driving attitude causes Jerry to be arrested for speeding and reckless driving, with serious
suspicion that he is involved in a hit-run manslaughter offense. It is during the subsequent hearing before a magistrate
that Jerry, with the help of the wise and sympathetic judge, comes to realize the great responsibilities that are his. He
realizes that his own will and intelligence must control the borrowed power of the car he drives. The picture ends with
Jerry voicing his new concept of power under control and also his new resolve always in the future to use such "borrowed"
power wisely and in a sportsmanlike manner.--AAA

This film demonstrates how pupils and teachers may plan and work together. It starts by presenting a frank picture of
the conventional teacher-dominated, subject-matter-centered, lesson-hearing method which emphasizes "tricks of the trade"
and rigid lesson plans. Shown are typical effects of this method upon student attitudes, responses, and learning. Next, the
film shows some relaxing of this procedure to admit some pupil interest and participation. The first part of the film is to
set the basis for a contrast between the above type of formal recitation and the informal group discussion type of class
session which concludes Part I. In the latter part of this film, under unobtrusive teacher guidance, pupils share in the
planning of their work. In the class shown, this sharing of planning and freedom of discussion lead to an idea for a class
project. Development of this project with a delineation of the values therein is presented in The Broader Concept of

A boy and his Dad are fishing on Bass Lake when a friend lands his plane nearby and takes them for a ride. They see
from the air the lakes and hills close at hand as well as Trout River which seems nearer than they thought. They ex-
amine an aerial map noting its accuracy in reproducing an outline of the country below. Later, with the aid of a map which
they have studied, they take a hike over land to the river and learn the fine points of map reading by actual experience.
An awakened interest in orientation, where trails and landmarks are inadequate guides in themselves, leads them to a
study of the compass and its use with maps. A hike is planned from Bass Lake to Sugarloaf Mountain via the Old Mill.
Using the knowledge gained and depending entirely on instrument and map, they reach their objective after a number of
woodland incidents including a meeting with an owl and a porcupine. From these beginnings the boy and Dad range far
and wide exploring the wilderness, finding virgin fishing lakes, and enjoying a new found comradeship secure in their
ability to find any objective by map and compass.--IFB

Canadian Landscape, jh-sh (Color)
4111
2 reels
A strong regionalism, making full use of such symbols of northern geography as towering pines, burnt stumps and rock-
girt lakes has been typical of the best in Canadian painting. This film reveals the characteristic style of Alexander
Young Jackson, roving prospector among landscape artists. Confronted with the task of depicting a chaos of forest,
rock, and turbulent waters, Jackson quickly discovered the need for amplification. He learned to select the more eharacter-
istic forms and underline their dominant tones and shapes. Canadian Landscape shows how the artist first makes small
sketches on wooded panels out-of-doors, and later in his studio works them up into large compositions on canvass. The
film also gives the spectator a close and accurate description of the scenery of rural Quebec in winter and spring, and of
northern Ontario in summer and autumn. Canadian Landscape presents above all the work of the artist in direct rela-
tionship to his country and people, and Jackson's own account of his method and philosophy of painting is an essay
in sturdy realism.--CFB

Children's Emotions, t
4201
2 reels
Discusses the major emotions of childhood; curiosity, fear, anger, jealousy, and joy. Narrator points out the principal
characteristics of children's emotions as intense, frequent though of short duration, and resulting in a wide variety of be-
havior responses. The film examines the major causes of fear at different age levels; "Suddenness" of any kind, loud
noises, "night" noises--and cautions that fear is natural but must not be allowed to become a habit. Careful teaching can
prevent or lessen most childhood fears. Childish, anger, too, is natural, but the same precaution applies. Humor is endorsed
as the best antidote, combined with understanding of the baby's inability to do things for himself and the intensity of his
desire to try. Jealousy is a withering emotion and is best dealt with through consistent discipline plus genuine understand-
ing and affection. Curiosity should not be discouraged, but fostered, for it is the basis of all the child's future education.
Happiness can be the child's natural element, for it is the result of physical well-being added to reasonable discipline and
loving understanding.--McGraw-Hill*

Churchill: The Man of the Century, el-jh-sh
4262
2 reels
This film of unusual interest presents a brief biographical sketch of the greatest statesman and leader of our age It re-
calls for us the highlights of his life from his entry into the British army in 1895 to the recent celebration of his eighti-
eth birthday. We are told of the failure of his first attempt to win a seat in the House of Commons, of his experiences both
as a soldier and war correspondent in the Boer War, of his entry into Parliament in 1900 and the various ministerial of-
fices he held up to 1939 including that of First Lord of the Admiralty during the crucial years 1911-1915. The film re-
minds us that on the outbreak of war Churchill, who was to lay his country under a deeper obligation to him than per-
haps any other man in history, was not in ministerial office but that on the first day he once more became First Lord
of the Admiralty, and in May 1940 succeeded Chamberlain as Prime Minister and became Minister of Defense as well--
positions which he was to hold until 1945. With these responsibilities we are told how he became one of the main architects
of Allied victory, a war leader whose courage and whose ability to kindle in a whole nation the fire that burned within
him inspired the British people to fight back against seemingly impossible odds. Many scenes of the war are included in the
film--the historic conferences with President Roosevelt and Truman and with Stalin at Casablanca, Teheran, Yalta and
Potsdam, the frequent visits to the battle fronts "to see for himself," the many famous speeches which inspired his own
people and those of the Allied Nations. As a result of his wide experience and study of the conduct of war, he had the un-
questioned confidence of the Fighting Services and was able to impress his personality on the other great Allied leaders
and to win their trust in his strategy. In July 1945 when the Labour Party won the General Election, Churchill became
Leader of the Opposition. Out of office he was able to devote more time to writing and painting and to his many
other interests. In this period too he made the famous Fulton speech calling for a special relationship between the U. S.
and the British Commonwealth to enable them to stand firm behind the United Nations Charter--one of the corner-
stones of Churchill's foreign policy has always been the maintenance and strengthening of the close friendship and al-
liance between Britain and the U. S., and when in 1951 the Conservatives regained power and he once more became Prime
Minister, one of his first actions was to go to Washington to confer with President Truman and continue building the vi-
tal edifice of Anglo-American relations. The film ends with scenes of his eightieth birthday celebration and the presenta-
tion of the much discussed portrait by Graham Sutherland.--BIS

Conquest, jh-sh
5952
2 reels
Emphasizing character study, the classroom version of Conquest presents a realistic portrayal of Napoleon. The film
stresses the personality of the Corsican, rather than his triumphs, and provides a sensitive interpretation of his driving
will to power. Vivid dramatizations show Napoleon's maneuvering in power politics as well as his efforts to regain the
mastery of Europe, following the retreat from Moscow and subsequent exile on Elba. The opening sequence, which depicts
the pomp and ceremony of a court reception, sets the theme of the film as the "Little Corporal" refuses to commit himself
to any promises of liberation sought by the Poles. The ensuing episode presents a provocative soliloquy in which Napoleon
analyzes the impelling forces which motivate him. Subsequent developments accentuate his thirst for power as he plans
the invasion of Russia and arranges a marriage with Marie Louise of Hapsburg in order to found a dynasty. An interest-
ing sidelight to these events is the portrayal of the mutually distrustful relations existing between the Emperor and Tal-
leyrand, his minister. The downfall of Napoleon is dramatically visualized in a series of scenes depicting the disastrous re-
treat from Moscow, and his frantically determined efforts to escape from Elba to reorganize his shattered forces. The
concluding episode provides a forceful characterization of his bitter acceptance of defeat as he prepared to board a British
man-o'-war for transportation to his final exile on St. Helena.--TFC*

with students who need special counseling, Draper organizes his methods in accordance with the student's emotional needs. To do this, he prepares for the interview by referring to the cumulative file of the student. Here he finds facts about health, school activities, marks and much more. He then refers to aptitude tests--another aid in determining a student's interests, especially when related to work experince and school success. He now calls a case conference at which all the teachers meet to discuss the student's total problem. They analyze the facts, pool their ideas, and finally make a plan to guide the student through his difficulty. By teaching his own class and his activities at a hobby club, Draper learns and applies still more of his counseling knowledge. It is through these various steps that he arrives at an understanding of the student and his problem. To give his counseling greater perspective, he joins the boy scouts, talks to local business and civic groups, takes courses at school. There is always new research to keep abreast of, recent findings in human relations, current developments in personnel work, and the sharing of experiences with others through writing.

introduction the despoliation of Jerusalem by the infidels and the preaching of Peter the Hermit are revealed as forces
which motivated the peoples of Europe to undertake the series of holy wars. The film then concentrates upon the organi-
zation of the Third Crusade, and a series of impressive sequences show the departure of the English forces under Richard
the Lionhearted, the massing of the armies from all over Europe at Marseilles and the difficulties of supplying and equip-
ping this great expedition. When the Crusaders reach Acre, the leader of the Saracens refuses to yield to the Kings of
Crusade, and the Battle of Acre ensues. Despite their success in capturing the city, the armies under Richard are ex-
hausted and depleted in a succession of skirmishes and battles, and Richard is forced to accept the Saladin's chivalrous
truce which freed prisoners, and opened Jerusalem to pilgrims. The concluding scenes of the film depict the joyful entry
of pilgrims into Jerusalem.--TFC*

Curriculum Based on Child Development, sh-t

1 reel
This film illustrates how the good teacher utilizes the behavior characteristics of eight- and nine-year olds in providing
curriculum materials and in planning classroom activities. A survey of the classroom reveals a "museum" where student
collections are displayed, an exhibit of Indian arts and crafts to encourage the desire for making things, a bookshelf to
whet curiosity to know more about the world, and visual materials to help the children to identify themselves with the
people they are studying in American History. In classroom activities, too, Miss Goodson has observed and utilized be-
havior characteristics. Planning and rehearsing the Rain Dance of the Hopi Indians, for example, puts to good use their
abundant energy, abilities and interests. Group activities are well suited to this gang- and club stage; teacher-guided dis-
cussions channel their garrulousness and love of argument, and help them to understand other points of view. The film
concludes by pointing out that learning opportunities should challenge the slowest to the brightest individual, and that
developmental characteristics must be considered in all phases of the curriculum.--McGraw-Hill

To parents, prevention of child molestation is of much greater importance than punishing the crime. Using a motion pic-
ture to make the child aware of this danger is an immediate, effective preventive measure. "The Dangerous Stranger, a
tactful yet forceful educational film designed for children, impresses the child with the need to be on guard against
molestoi without arousing fear or curiosity. It dramatizes places and circumstances under which the child may encounter
"dangerous strangers." By demonstrating that "stupid" children are most frequently "taken in" by molester s tactics, it
emphasizes how the "smart" child, such as every boy and girl fancies himself, can avoid such persons. Human interest,
common sense and humor are used, but fear is scrupulously avoided.--Sid Davis

! ree,|
An illustration of the nature and incidents of taxes in America, especially of income taxes and of so-called hidden taxes.
The film deals with the plight of the businessman, the laborer and the farmer in meeting the tax bills levied on each by
Uncle Sam. As a result of the protests of each group over their tax bills, Uncle Sam explains that government services
are not rendered free and that, generally, each group must pay his share of the tax burden which is required to under-
write the costs of a countless variety of government projects and services. Uncle Sam explains that income taxes con-
stitute only a small portion of the total tax bill of the government and that the bulk of taxes paid by the consumer con-
sists of such hidden taxes as excise, customs, and other miscellaneous revenues which the customer pays every time he
makes a purchase. According to Uncle Sam's statement, each individual must work three months each year to pay his
share of government expenses. In spite of this high tax rate, however, not one dime is being paid on the national debt.

Design of American Public Education, t
4288
2 reels
This film compares and contrasts the operation of the "assembly line" kind of educational process with one that is tailor-
ed to meet the needs of today's young people. Under the first system children are fed into the educational hopper and
turned out--carbon copies of each other, with little or no consideration given to individual talents. Under such regimen-
tation a child has little chance of retaining his individuality. Nor is this what we want as educational preparation for
responsible citizens in a democratic society. Then the film shows the other side of the picture. A decentralized, locally
elected educational system can tailor its curriculum to the community needs. Typical state, county and local setups are
shown--where the educational objective is the creation of inquiring minds, the development of democratic ideals and qual-
ities of leadership, the realization of a complete individual capable of assuming his place in society.--McGraw-Hill*

How dependency grows and how necessary self-reliance is to all successful endeavor and happiness is shown in this motion
picture. It analyzes the steps in developing self-reliance as: (1) assume responsibility; (2) be informed; (3) know where
you are going; and (4) make your own decisions. A careful distinction is drawn between dependence--which is undesirable
--and seeking advice and help; which is part of being intelligently self-reliant.--Coronet*

teaching experiences for the children in her class. To reveal the behavior patterns characteristic of eight- and nine-year olds, two children are shown in relation to each other, to their parents, and with other children. These children are intolerant, self-centered. They prefer to be with children of their own sex. Quarrels are now verbalized -- arguments have replaced scuffles and fights. Imitation of adults, dramatic play, interest in constructing and collecting, and identification with heroic or dramatic figures are other characteristics of these pre-adolescents. They belong to gangs and secret clubs, and have a favorite friend. The eight- or nine-year old can be expected to handle errands and other duties, but he "forgets" easily. Bursting with energy and interests, his own concerns are uppermost in his mind.--McGraw-Hill

Diagnosis and Planning Adjustments In Counseling, t
4307
2 reels
This film discusses the successive steps in counseling -- searching for the cause, easing anxieties and strain, planning
courses of action, and making new adjustments. To illustrate these procedures, the film shows interviews between the
classroom teacher and the student; the counselor and the student; the counselor, mother and student; and a concluding in-
terview between the counselor and the boy. During each interview the counselor tries to make the student speak freely of
things he has not previously discussed -- his relations with other students, his problems at home, etc. As the student be-
gins to see the relationship between his feelings and his schoolwork, he finds it easier to talk. The counselor meanwhile
notes the high points of each interview for later reference. Finally a three-way conference is planned between the stu-
dent, the counselor and the student's mother, during which many of his conflicts are highlighted. As the film develops we
see how through the guidance of his counselor, Lloyd's growing self-confidence stimulates an interest in other people and
in his schoolwork. As his circle of friends widens, he is drawn into more school activities and his initial indifference
gradually disappears. Not all of Lloyd's problems have been solved, however, and new ones will develop. But these inter-
views have contributed to his growth, his way of thinking and behaving. Counseling thus becomes an integrated part of
the educative process -- a way to assist each individual to achieve adjustment in his own way.--McGraw-Hill

Steve Martin should be graduating with his high school class today, but instead, he quit school after his freshman year
and since then he has drifted from one mediocre job to another. And Steve is not an unusual case--it is far too typical. He
is only one of the "drop-outs," one of the nearly 50 per cent of all high school freshmen who quit school before they are
graduated. Four years ago, Steve was eager to begin high school. It was to be a big adventure, with interesting things to
do--biology labs, and woodworking classes, and athletics--and regular classes, too--English and civics and math. But the
promise didn't come true. Classes were dull repetitions of textbook material, or presented pointless, useless problems that
Steve would never come up against in his out-of-school life. Even athletics were regimented. A waste of time--days and
weeks and months wasted. No single thing to take his interest, to fight the boredom, to stave off the truancy that fol-
lowed. Dullness and monopolv--those are Steve's chief memories of high school days. All his natural interests were sys-
tematically frustrated. Steve left school as soon as the law allowed. A life adjustment program, with class subjects
related to the interests of boys and girls might be the answer for Steve and those other "drop-outs" in our schools today.

Drums Along the Mohawk, el-jh-sh
5987
3 reels
Emphasizing pioneer life in the Revolutionary period, this film opens with a sequence of the militia muster at German
Flats in the Mohawk Valley. The ensuing episode shows the frontier custom of the neighbors helping a newcomer, Gil
Martin, to clear his land for planting. In the midst of this activity, a small party of Indians under Tory leadership attack.
The settlers hasten their families to the fort and assemble to drive off the marauders. Temporarily they re-establish
peace. The next scene, that of the harvest festival, reveals the social and recreational life of the pioneer families. Their
joy is short lived, however, for the Tories return leading a large force of Indians to besiege the settlers in their fort.
When ammunition runs low, Gil Martin slips through the Indians' lines and outraces pursuers to get help. The regular
troops arrive at the peak of a terrific attack and the settlement is saved. The concluding sequence shows the settlers re-
pairing their fort as a company of infantry bearing the new United States flag arrives to announce that the war has
ended.--TFC*

This film depicts the dangers of driving while intoxicated, both to one's self and to innocent victims. John Jones, a
young salesman, is told by his employer that he has been selected to manage a branch office in another city. He cele-
brates with a few drinks and has a minor accident. He tries to fix the traffic ticket and manages to get off with a $25.00
fine. On the evening before their departure, he, his wife, and his mother-in-law go out to celebrate, but Jones again has
a few drinks before leaving. He narrowly misses one smash-up, but while trying to pass a car on a curve, he hits another
car, head-on. His mother-in-law, and two people in the other car are killed, and Jones' wife is pinned beneath the wreck-
age. At the hospital he is found to be intoxicated, thus being liable to conviction for manslaughter. As the film ends,
Jones is horrified to learn that his drinking has caused not only the death of three people, but the amputation of his wife's
legs. This film has a tremendous emotional impact. It is effective--far more effective than a temperance lecture. It may
be used in discussion programs by auto clubs, service clubs, and is highly recommended for showing to driving classes.

baby brother, in addition to her school work. Mark is a natural leader, superior in ability and intelligence. Elizabeth

his own fortune. The photographic highlights in this program are viewed through a powerful telescopic lens and we see
the eagles building their tremendous nest--watch a sea eagle pick a fish right out of the water and deliver it to the nest
for the young one. We also see the mother breaking down the food into small morsels and feeding her baby. Our program
is ended with a closeup study of a fully grown eagle preparing for and even taking off on its first flight.--Kieran

This film has three primary objectives: (1) to assure people of college age that emotional upsets are common; (2) to
show that if a disturbance of this kind is prolonged, the need for professional counsel and care is just as important and
normal as with any physical illness; and (3) to explain in simplified language some of the basic techniques of psychiatric
treatment and thereby allay the stigma attached to the necessity for this treatment. The story is told of a young man who
learns that there is no physical reason for his chest pains and other physical upsets. He is shocked to hear his doctor sug-
gest consultation with a psychiatrist. However, the physician explains in clear, simple terms, that many bodily disorders
may be provoked by an emotional upset, and that a competent psychiatrist is the man best qualified to diagnose and
treat such a condition. Reluctantly at first, and then with growing confidence, the young man undergoes psychiatric treat-
ment, and at length a deep-seated and hitherto unsuspected fear is brought to light and dispelled. This film points out
that the emotional upset depicted here is typical of those that can be cured by bringing to the patient a better understand-
ing of his problem.--McGraw-Hill*

Although Great Britain is a great manufacturing country, her biggest industry is still farming and four-fifths of her land
is devoted to farming and the production of food. The British Isles are not subject to extremes of heat and cold, yet the
four seasons of the year have their special significance to the farmer in Britain. In this film we see the activities of a
typical small farmer in Southern England, the devotion with which he and his family tend the land and the ingenuity with
which they maintain its efficiency. As we go from spring into summer we see the corn-crops ripen in the sun and finally
harvested. As autumn approaches, the root-crops are harvested and the corn for the following year is sown. Finally there
is winter (which is often cold and damp) when the corn is threshed and sent to market. Through all of these changing
seasons however, there are the everyday, unchanging chores: the tending, feeding, cleaning and milking of cattle who even
in winter can graze in the rich English fields, the upkeep of the building, the barn, the bull pen, the cow shed and of course
the main building, and the job which every farmer hates -- accounting. Performing these and the many other chores with
the farmer himself are his wife, his son and his daughter. Of special interest are sequences showing a meeting of a Young
Farmers' Club, where young people have lectures and discussions about farming, and a cattle show, typical of the many
shows held throughout Britain, in which farmers enter their prize cattle for breeding awards.--BIS

Exploring The Instruments, sh-t
4409
2 reels
A careful exploration of the individual instruments and groups of instruments that make up the structure of a full orches-
tra. Mr. Mathieson first explains how the various instruments cause the air to vibrate, producing sound. The diaphragm
of a percussion instrument moves to and fro, the strings of the bowed instruments are alternately gripped and released,
and the player's blowing into a horn or against the reed of a wind instrument sets the column of air inside the instrument
vibrating. But how do the various instruments produce a range of pitch? In general, pitch is determined by the length
of the vibrating column of air--longer length of string (and its surrounding column of air) is controlled by the fingers.
In the woodwinds the keys and the vibrations of the reeds, and in the brass the valves and the vibrations of the
player's lips determine the pitch. Part 2 closes with a unique audio-visual device for comparing the various ranges of the
principal instruments of the orchestra--although a full orchestra has a range of seven octaves, most of the instruments
have a three-octave range. What this individual range is, is clearly shown on a transparent scale while the instrument,
identified by name on the screen, is played.--McGraw-Hill

More than that, it challenges parents and teachers with the necessity for fusing the homeschool relationship into a mutual undertaking in which each actively supports and encourages the work of the other. The measure of success or failure can be found in each individual child. When this support is even-handed, the child's need for security is sustained and he finds his family circle a happy and rewarding place in which to grow. When it is denied,
he is confused and defeated.--McGraw-Hill*

Fiddle De Dee, made at the National Film Board of Canada, is perhaps the best known and the most widely acclaimed film
by Norman McLaren. It was awarded first place in music and arts at the World Film Festival in Chicago and was a prize
winner of a recent Brussels Film Festival. Celluloid dyes, inks, and transparent paints were applied directly to the film.
Often both sides were painted to utilize effects obtained by transparencies. The surfaces were stippled, scratched, press-
ed with cloths while the paint was wet and chemically different paints were mixed to create patterns analogous to effects
produced by mixing oil and water en the same surface. The musical accompaniment is "Listen to the Mocking Bird" played
by a folk fiddler. This film exemplifies Norman McLaren's careful experiments with sound, motion and color values
related to emotional content. It has pleased many audiences and has been used in art classes as motivation material.--CFB

solved. Rather "The Fight for Better Schools" will interest an intelligent audience in its presentation of the fact that there
were problems and that they were solved by the united efforts of the people themselves. The importance of good schools

brought to a sharp focus when Mrs. Orin, trapped and entangled by well meaning fears of parents, is charged with teach-
ing communism in her classroom. Called before an open meeting of the school board, Mrs. Orin expresses her own deep
confidence in the American principle of free education for all. She reveals her belief that teaching is meant to open the
minds of young people to fuller and wider knowledge, and that teachers who are restricted by fear and pressure cannot
teach young people to become free men and women. At the same time she makes clear that no teacher can be the final
judge of truth, that this judgment remains for the decision and conscience of every free man. If these judgments are to
be sound, our children must be given FREEDOM TO LEARN. Whether they have this freedom or are denied it is not up
to Mrs. Orin, but to each of us, in his own community. We are the ones who must finally decide whether to give our chil-
dren FREEDOM TO LEARN.--NEA

His ability to do such things as dress himself, carry out simple directions, etc. seems to leave him at unexpected times.
Sound judgment and logic in the beginning stage. The impulse and interest of the moment occupy his attention. Four-
year-olds have vivid imaginations that may almost always be appealed to, but attention-span is short. They are full of
energy and abandon, and painstaking craftsmanship and sudden destructiveness go hand-in-hand at this stage. Roddy's
behavior at home with his parents, at nursery school with others of his age, and at his grandmother's house, in a social

On his wedding day Wang Lung, a Chinese peasant, leaves his farm and goes to the city to bring home O-Lan, the kitchen
slave whom his father has purchased to be his bride. He is happy to find that she is not ugly, and is delighted with her
thrift when she recovers a peach stone he had thrown away. On their arrival at Wang's farm, O-Lan plants the stone.
Throughout the film the growth of the peach tree indicates the passage of the years. In a montage sequence O-Lan is
shown at work beside her husband on the farm. Fortune favors them as they acquire more land and become parents of
two sons and a daughter. Then drought and famine plague the country, and Wang is advised by his improvident uncle to
sell his farm. With scarcely enough food to support his family, Wang considers disposing of his land, but O-Lan firmly
resists giving up their good earth. The family joins the famine-stricken migrants in the trek southward to the city. There,
reduced to desperation, O-Lan trains her children to beg in the streets as Wang searches for work. Finally he gains em-
ployment and labors as a coolie until the period of drought and famine abates. Then a revolt against the Manchu tyranny
breaks out, and Wang saves the life of a wealthy mandarin in the rioting. He receives a reward rich enough to enable him
to bring his family back to their land and resume farming. Having survived the buffeting of fate, Wang and his family
prosper. The film concludes with the death of O-Lan, whose strength and character had so well sustained her family. De-
tails of Chinese life are authentically represented. The excerpt has value in the study of world literature and of other
lands and for discussion of the family as the basic social unit.--TFC

Grandma Moses, jh-sh-t (Color)
4269
2 reels
Grandma Moses, 90 in September 1950, is America's best known, best loved primitive painter. Although art has been her
hobby only during the last dozen years of her life, she has already had over a hundred exhibitions in this country and
abroad; while her unique visions of the America of her childhood have been enjoyed by millions more through reproduc-
tions in books, on magazine covers and Christmas cards. Her story has never failed to capture the imagination of all who
hear it. In this film we see both the artist and the person -- her simple, busy life on her farm in upper New York state;
the album of fading photographs that sharpen her memories of things past; Grandma Moses' peculiarly personal technique
of painting while sitting perched on the old family Bible; the special preparation of her painting boards that gives her work
its subtle luminosity. Over a year in preparation Grandma Moses follows the artist through the entire cycle of the seasons.
The last half of the film is virtually a Grandma Moses exhibition in itself, an exhibition in which one's perceptions are
heightened constantly by the magic of the color camera. Archibald MacLeish, noted poet and authority on Americana, pre-
pared and speaks the narration for this important and beautiful document, this portrait of an American and an artist.--

Ingenuity and industry are paying off for one beef-cattle farmer in western New Jersey. With the aid of science and
modernized mechanical equipment, his marginal land now grows grass for fodder where none grew before. The film shows
how grass is processed for storage, and how cattle feed themselves from a "cowfeteria" -- a self-feeding silo and barn.
Reduced operating expenses and higher prices for quality beef produced more than make up for the extra cost of equip-
ment and fertilizers. An outstanding example of how efficient farming can turn grass to profit.--MOT*

rhythmically, it pumps the blood to all parts of the body. During one minute, the average heart beats about 70 to 80 times.
The film points out that in order to do such a tremendous amount of work, the heart needs rest which it gets in between the
contractions of the muscular heartwall as well as when it slows during sleep. In addition, the film shows the action of
the complete heartbeat, and then analyzes this action step by step. Finally, the film interprets methods for testing or

Henry Moore's sensitive understanding of the suffering of his fellow Londoners during the blitz and his ability to convey
his sense of their simple heroism and dignity in sculpture make him England's greatest artist today. His work is the sub-
ject of this documentary film, based on his exhibition at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Although Moore studied
primitive sculpture closely, the film shows clearly that the distortions of the human figure in Moore's sculpture stem
directly from his emotional knowledge of human nobility. In the film's commentary, author James Johnson Sweeney
emphasizes Moore's "truth to material," his respect for the different qualities of wood, stone and cast metal which the
sculptor never falsifies to imitate human flesh. This unusually beautiful and perceptive film makes available to audiences
all over this country an art exhibition which would otherwise be lost after its closing date.--AF Films

2 reels
The right marriage partner need not be one's exact counterpart, but for a happy marriage, two personalities must mesh
--they must complement each other. The traits that identify personalities are not difficult to discover; most people in
a moment of stress will reveal them quite clearly. This film shows a series of young people, each one reacting to an
identical tense situation, and each one disclosing the essential pattern of his or her personality. The "executive" type di-
rects everyone else to remedy a bad situation; the "helpless" one, as usual, capitalizes on that fact; the hypersensitive
"worrier" indulges his sense of the dramatic, and the "competent" girl just relaxes and finds an empty gas tank an ex-
cellent excuse for a picnic. Each of these young people is also shown in a situation involving a member of the opposite
sex, so that the personality traits already demonstrated can be judged in terms of mate selection and circumstances of
successful marriage. The successful marriages, the film points out, will be those where the partners choose each other
with care, with a sure knowledge of each other, and then accept each other for what they are--not for what each might
wish the other to be.--McGraw-Hill*

twist actual facts into lurid conjectures which she then believes. Sally has decided that because Don is late and hasn't
phoned, he is out with another woman. When Don comes home, Sally discounts all his explanations, and orders him from
the house. Left alone, she broods over her situation, of which she is now thoroughly convinced, until a phone call from
Don's partner confirms Don's explanation. Relieved and happy at first, she then realizes that she has been projecting her
own secret desires, and remorsefully sets out to look for Don. She locates him eating alone in a delicatessen, but before

Jefferson, The Architect, el-jh-sh
3431
1 reel
The importance of Thomas Jefferson's contribution to architecture is apparent today in widespread use of classical de-
signs similar to those he employed at Monticello, the University of Virginia and the State Capitol in Richmond. Jefferson
not only planned the building, Monticello, but also designed a weather vane with a dial in the ceiling, a clock with two
faces (one indoors and one outdoors), a swivel chair revolving table, and a revolving music stand. He also designed
wallpaper, a coffee urn, spectacles for himself, a drafting table and other objects shown in the film. By picturing Monti-
cello in detail, the film gives insight into the manner of living of Jefferson and his friends in Virginia. The buildings and
grounds of the University of Virginia are shown and related to Jefferson's drawing of the "Academical Village" he
founded. The Rotunda patterned after the Pantheon in Rome, the Serpentine Walls using the principle of the arch, the
Lawns and Ranges, and the Pavilions with their Doric, Ionic and Corinthian capitals are shown. And in this film the archi-
tectural work of Thomas Jefferson, the statesman and educator, can be seen today.--IFB

Justice Under Law, sh-t
5909
3 reels
Filmed in documentary style, this excerpted version of a feature photoplay emphasizes the ideal of justice under American
law and the importance of weighing evidence carefully to protect the individual's Constitutional rights. In simple and
direct fashion the film tells the story of the murder of a beloved clergyman. Public outrage at the brutal crime demands
quick arrest and punishment of the killer. A suspect is picked up in the police dragnet, and seven witnesses identify him.
It seems "an open and shut case." Interesting sequences depict the working of legal machinery in such a case, including
the police investigations and line-up of suspects, the Coroner's hearing and the arraignment. When the prosecutor appears
at the arraignment, he dumbfounds the court by entering a plea of innocent for the suspect. He proceeds to disprove
each piece of evidence which seemed to doom the man to conviction. The adherence of the prosecutor to the ideal of his
office frees an innocent man and provides a reassurance of faith in American justice.--TFC

The late Emily Carr found her inspiration in the towering forests and the dying Indian culture of the Province of British
Columbia. The first part of the film deals with the region in which the artist grew up. Her English-style home and garden
on Vancouver Island are contrasted with the Indian villages along the coast which she visited as a girl, and several of her
early works are shown. The Indians nicknamed Emily Carr, "Klee Wyck," which means "The Laughing One." Later on, the
artist travelled about Vancouver Island in a trailer, finding subjects for her brush among forests of giant trees. Finally
the film carefully examines paintings completed during the last fifteen years of Miss Carr's life. These reflect many dif-
ferent regions of British Columbia and reveal, in the words of the commentary, "vigor, certainty and a sense of freedom."

In low lands by the sea it is possible to enlarge farming areas by draining off the water and reclaiming the land. Small,
densely populated countries have found this practice to be advantageous. In this picture we study how these principles
apply to the Netherlands, a low country, nearly half of whose area is below sea level. The Dutch people have been working
for hundreds of years making new land by draining swamps, shallow lakes, and even the sea itself. The reclaimed land,
known as Polderland, is very productive. Farm products often move to market by boats on the canals. The land has been
drained by dikes, canals and windmills. Today, modern pumping stations are replacing the more picturesque windmills.

pressure is exerted to prevent his renomination. Judge Hardy reveals that the enabling act permitting the construction
had been rushed through the state legislature at a closing session. This act would permit drawing off all the waters of
the Carville River, thereby imperilling the survival of the town's industries. He, therefore, declares the enabling act to be
unconstitutional. The judge is renominated unanimously.--TFC

"Live and Learn" was produced with the cooperation of Dr. Harry F. Dietrich, the Los Angeles Children's Hospital and
the Santa Monica Police Department. The message is directed at children within the age brackets of five to fourteen. By
actual illustration, it teaches children that the worst accidents happen at home and at play -- that such accidents take a
greater toll than polio, heart trouble and tuberculosis put together and that such accidents can be avoided by taking time
to think. It shows the everyday sort of accident such as running with a sharp instrument in the hand, playing ball in the
streets, rocking a canoe, fire, etc., which can and does seriously injure the school child. The narrator also tells the results
of such accidents by actual scenes in the Childrens Hospital. "Live and Learn" educates youngsters by actual illustrations
enacted by boys and girls their own ages. It will therefore bring home the lesson of taking thought and care of themselves
in the best possible manner and in a way that will stay in their minds far longer than any written or spoken instructions.
It was produced to save the lives and limbs of children today. The Los Angeles Childrens Hospital sincerely believes that
it will go a long way in accomplishing this important task.--EBF*

The film points out that our way of life, called our "culture," seems very important to us, but we can truly understand it
only when we compare it with other cultures. Posing the possibility that a ship from Outer Space has approached the Earth
to study its people, the film shows the form which such a study would take. Attention is given to the many different kinds
of culture on the earth's surface, and some of the reasons for these differences are examined. These cultures have many
things in common: ways of taking care of material welfare; some kind of family organization; language and gesture; re-
ligion and mythology. The film describes how cultures are transmitted from one generation to the next, and ways in which
they change. Some of these changes are caused by the borrowing of traits from other cultures, and some are caused by
new inventions and discoveries. The sources of opposition to change are also illustrated, and the film points out that de-
spite such opposition cultures are always in a constant state of change.--EBF*

Marc Antony of Rome, adapted from the photoplay Cleopatra, traces the part played by Caesar's impetuous lieutenant in the crucial period which preceded the rise of Octavius to power. Opening with Caesar's triumphal return to Rome in 44 B. C. and his subsequent assassination, the film depicts the formation of the First Triumvirate. The scorn of Antony for Octavius and the animosity of Caesar's willful nephew toward his soldierly partner are vividly portrayed, foreshadowing the course of historical development. When Antony becomes infatuated with Cleopatra, neglecting the plan to subjugate Egypt, Octavius grasps the mastery of Rome and declares war upon his rival and the Egyptian queen. Following the desertion of Enobarbus with his Roman legions, Antony's rash attempt to combat the might of Rome with Egyptian soldiers and ships culminates in his defeat at Actium. His disillusioned suicide leaves Octavius in control of the Roman world.--TFC*

From the time that Galileo pointed his first telescope to the Moon, man has dreamed of visiting the satellite. In this film
we travel in a visual manner toward the Moon by means of the great telescopes, using the largest lens-type telescope, the
40-inch refractor of Yerkes, the 100-inch Hooker telescope of Mt. Wilson, and the 200-inch Hale telescope of Palomar. We
take an illusional magic carpet flight over the Moon's surface, observing the general topographic features from a visual
distance of 1,000 miles. Then by means of larger telescopes we see rills or clefts (really great cracks in the Moon's sur-
face), and examine the North Polar and South Polar regions in detail. From a seeming distance of about 200 miles we see
the Straight Wall, first with the Sun shining from the left when the cliff casts a black shadow, and then fourteen days
later, with the Sun shining from the opposite direction, we see the face of the cliff brilliantly lighted. Following this we
have a close-up view of the Straight Wall from an apparent distance of 100 miles by means of the 100-inch telescope.
Through this telescope we also see the Alpine Valley, a great gash cut through the eight to nine thousand foot mountain
peaks of the Lunar Alps. A particularly interesting view is afforded as our magic carpet carries us over a chain of three
ring mountains at a visual distance of 100 miles above the surface. This panoramic sweep carries us over Ptolemaeus, Al-
phonsus, and Arzachel. The great Walled Plains of the South Polar region are then observed with close-up views of Cla-

Preapproach, jh-sh
3285
1 reel
This film emphasizes the importance of knowing in advance all the pertinent facts regarding a prospect. The preapproach
involves planning to show specific benefits to that particular prospect, planning to appeal to his buying motives, knowing
in advance what may irritate this prospect, knowing what pace of presentation will fit this prospect's mental tempo, and
planning to handle the objections this prospect will probably raise. A sales plan is an interview completely tailored for
a particular prospect. Without knowing the facts, such as the prospect's ability to pay -- or who has the authority to buy
-- a salesman wastes his time on china eggs or blind alleys. A preapproach may begin while you are still prospecting and
continue right into your approach to the prospect. As an example, Ted Sanders, successful salesman of industrial lubri-
cants, is interviewed on his preapproach methods. He explains that preapproach takes the biggest part of his time in
most of his sales, and tells how he made a sale to a large manufacturing plant in the face of repeated "brush-offs" by the
purchasing agent, and a number of important personal factors. Ted Saunders found out how his prospect could best use his
proposition, determined that it would actually save the plant money, and learned who had the authority to approve his
plan. Then he tailored his sales plan to fit the ideas and personalities of the plant operating group, using every source at
his disposal -- a fellow salesman, a customer, personal investigation, his office staff, and his own common sense.--McGraw-

Principles of Development, t

3 reel?
This film outlines the fundamentals of growth and change from early infancy and develops basic principles. (1) Develop-
ment follows a pattern that is continuous, orderly, progressive and predictable. (2) Within this developmental process there
is considerable correlation between types of development, e. g., physical growth affects motor development -- the baby's
back is erect before he can stand. Often one type of development waits for another -- if the baby concentrates on walking
188
EDUCATIONAL MOTION PICTURES
he may learn no new words for some months. (3) Development goes from general to specific responses. At first the baby responds to all foods before he learns that he prefers certain ones. (4) Most children follow the same pattern, and (5) each stage of the pattern has its own characteristic traits. (6) All development is the result of maturation and learning; the interrelation of these two is the key to all child training. After defining the principles of development, the film considers the variables which make each child different from every other one: intelligence, sex, glandular activity, race, nutrition, health, position in the family, incentive, heredity, and parental attitude. For a well developed child, all these factors must be brought into balance for the fullest development of his personality.--McGraw-Hill*

Prospecting, jh-sh

1 reel
We are all prospectors, says this film, whether or not we have a conscious system of prospecting. A good salesman knows
he is a prospector. He doesn't "drop in" without a previously arranged call or without knowing his prospect's needs and
having a real proposition to fit those needs. A good salesman has developed a definite system of continuously adding to
and maintaining his prospect list. What is a good system of prospecting? How can the salesman determine who can be
changed from a "wanter" to a "needer"? George Kimball, a man with a good position, a family and a home in the suburbs,
has been picked as a prospect by three different salesmen. The film interviews the salesmen on how they selected Kimball,
illustrating by actual incidents the personal observation method, the endless chain method, and the center of influence
method. Bill, an oil-burner salesman, overheard a discussion by Kimball's friends of KimbalPs trials with his coal fur-
nace, joined their group, and soon had the information necessary to make a contact. Mr. Wells, an automobile salesman,
got Kimball's name by his system of following up a sale with a visit to his customers. John Ingram, insurance repre-
sentative, got Kimball's name through a friend, a business consultant, who serves with John on his church finance com-
mittee. These are three effective systems, concludes the film. They may also be used in combination with each other or
with other systems, such as spotters or birddogs, cold canvassing, or direct mail and telephone. The foundation of all
selling success is regular, systematic prospecting.--McGraw-Hill

In the hands of the local school board lies the trusteeship of the education of our nation's youth. The school board, in ac-

shall teach them. The school board, composed of lay citizens, is an instrument of the people . . . responsible and respon-
sive to the people. It is, in fact, the only instrument through which the people of a community may achieve a maximum
educational opportunity for their children. This is a part of our American tradition. The National School Board Associa-
tion made this picture for two reasons: (1) To inspire and guide school board members in the performance of their respon-
sibilities. (2) To open avenues of cooperation between the school board and the community. It is a truism that all school

This is a motion picture on successful teaching in a rural school and is sponsored by the Department of Rural Education
of the National Education Association. This picture was filmed under actual teaching conditions in a multi-teacher rural
school, and shows children studying some of the problems of everyday life which they recognize as important. It shows
children, school staff, parents and other citizens working together in suitable ways to provide children with desirable
learning experiences, together with some ways a good curriculum or program can meet individual differences in interests,
aptitudes, and abilities. Miss Jane Franseth, formerly with the College of Education, University of Georgia, and now
specialist for rural schools, U. S. Office of Education, initiated this project when she was president of the Department of
Rural Education 1947-49. She served as chief consultant throughout the making of the film. Miss Franseth secured the
services of Mrs. Wilda Woodruff, a person experienced and skilled both as a teacher and a supervisor, from West Georgia
College, where she had shared the responsibility for the development of good teaching at Sand Hill and other nationally
praised Carroll County schools. At Centreville, Mrs. Woodruff was given the seventh grade. What she developed in this

(Juvenile Delinquency.) The important story of the joint attack being made on juvenile delinquency by a large univer-
sity (Wayne) and the police department of one of our largest cities (Detroit) is the subject of this film. It tells how the
Juvenile Delinquency Study has analyzed more than 30,000 case histories of children who have come into contact with
the police during the past seven years, and it illustrates for its viewers four basic types of delinquents and discusses
some of the factors contributing to their behavior; the "good risk" delinquent; the mentally ill child who, if unchecked,
might proceed to violent crime; the "lone wolf" type; and the "gang type" whose guidance comes from his peers rather
than his family. The camera is present at an actual police interrogation of a delinquent child; an interview between a so-
cial worker and an eight-year-old schizophrenic boy; a courtroom hearing in Juvenile Court where a delinquent boy tells
his story. In conclusion, the film points out that the causes of delinquency lie at the very roots of society (bad family re-
lationships, the insecurity of the times, and the lack of proper guidance,) and that, although authorities are becoming
more skillful in detecting and rehabilitating delinquents, the fact remains that delinquency is increasing.--YA*

Shape Description: Part I, jh-sh
3092
1 reel
The film begins by demonstrating the inadequacy of a written or spoken description, or of a perspective sketch, when the
designer of an object wants to tell others how to build it. The only accurate method of conveying this information is to
make several drawings showing how the object looks from different points of view. The film then describes orthographic-
projection, utilizing a combination of animated diagrams and animated photography of specially prepared models to pro-
vide unusual three-dimensional effects. Projections of an object's surfaces are animated on three glass surfaces represent-
ing the front, side, and top views, each of which is shown to be parallel to the surface projected on it, and perpendicular
to each other. When swung around on a single plane, these three projected views together are shown to represent fully the
three-dimensional object, and to provide all the information necessary to construct it.--McGraw-Hill*
Shape Description: Part II, jh-sh

Sheep and cattle raising and wheat farming are well suited to semi-arid lands that are sparsely settled and isolated from
markets. Australia is a plains region where little rain falls. Sheep raising is the most profitable industry here because
sheep can be raised in large numbers. Thus, the wool crop is abundant and is the leading export. Second in export impor-
tance are wheat and flour. The country's economy is dependent on exports that are channeled through the large seaport
cities. Many people are engaged in export business in the cities, and urban population is increasing with the development
of other industries, such as steel and textiles.--UWF

This film shows how finished drawings are used as detailed instructions in every step of manufacturing. From the draft-
ing room, the drawings are seen going to the blue-printing machine to be reproduced by dozens or hundreds and distrib-
uted to all those workmen who will have a part in making the finished product. The film then shows many of these work-
men at their jobs using blueprints -- in the pattern shop, the foundry, the forging shop, the machine shop, and the assem-
bly shop. The operation of basic machines is demonstrated, thus giving the student a glimpse of modern production meth-
ods. For example, in the machine shop the film describes the operations and uses of the engine lathe, the drill press, the
milling machine, the shaper, the planer, and the grinder. In conclusion, the film points out that many people can work to-
gether in production only if the engineer or draftsman understands what each workman will have to do, and if each work-
man is supplied with accurate drawings that he can read and understand.--McGraw-Hill*

Skippy Gordon, first-grader, discovers that school is an interesting . . . fascinating place. He likes Miss Temple, his
teacher, because she let him feed the fish . . . and she read stories to the class. He is too young to be able to answer his
father's man-sized question: "What did you learn in school today?" but he does know that he enjoys it. Miss Temple is a
good teacher . . . professional . . . competent. She knows that Skippy and the other children are going to learn their three
R's, because Miss Temple has a plan. Some will learn sooner than others, but they will all learn. As the months pass by,
Miss Temple knows Skippy well enough to see that something is bothering him. She does not insist that he "get to work"
or "pay attention," for she knows that his attention is on something that is bigger, of more immediate importance to him.
She keeps an eye on him, ready to help when she can. It was a bicycle ... a real two-wheeler . . . that was on Skippy's
mind. So Miss Temple encourages him to draw pictures of "bikes" and to read and write simple sentences about them.
She takes the class on a field trip, and Skippy sees "his" bike in the hardware store. Skippy begins to learn to read and
write and count, because he, Skippy Gordon, has discovered a need for learning. Skippy finally does get his bike. But,
more important, Miss Temple's plan really worked. She knew that his interest in the bike could be used to help him learn

colds are brought on by a certain kind of germ, called virus. These viruses are numerous and can be scattered in many
different ways -- when one sneezes, for instance. By means of a unique device, the film effectively portrays the most
common ways in which viruses are spread. It also shows ways in which the body defends itself against germs, and points
up the fact that what appears to be a cold may be the beginning of a contagious illness like measles, scarlet fever or polio.

Social Development, t

2 reels
Film offers an analysis of social behavior at different age levels and the reasons underlying the changes in behavior pat-
terns as the child develops. The infant is the passive bystander in the social scene, the pre-school child is aggressive in
his play activities, and plays cooperatively with others of his age group only after several years of learning. Points out
development from the stage where the sexes and ages mix indiscriminately to the point where children begin to pick mem-
bers of their own sex as playmates, to seek out the natural leader for their groups. All these patterns mix and overlap,
but at different age levels there is a definite organization to children's social behavior. The film goes on to the emotional
conflicts that come with the gang age, when home and family are no longer the center of the child's world. It stresses
the point that while the child must meet and solve each problem as he reaches that level of growth and development, guid-
ance from understanding adults can make the adjustment infinitely easier and smoother.--McGraw-Hill*

Sow and Sow, el-jh
3306
l reel
Nature's ability to spread herself so fully has always been one of her most fascinating mysteries. Blossoms and plants
appear to spring up without any preconceived plan. However, all of this beauty does not arrive by pure chance. We
observe how small insects like the bees carry pollen from one blossom to another. We see how plants whose locations are
immovable spill seeds on the nearby ground and new plants take root. We observe plants in water growing shoots beside
the mother plant and beginning their growth months after the mother has died. Birds play an important part in spreading
new plants to distant points. The fur on animals passing near certain fruits transfers the growth of plants from one loca-
tion to another. Of course, the mild winds provide the greatest transportation of seeds. The most ingenious phase of plant
reproduction is nature's original flying techniques. Here we see dried pods break open in spiral like manner and the seeds
catapult several feet away. In slow motion we observe touch-me-nots bursting under slight pressure and their seeds
spreading in a large circle. However, it remains for the squash to provide the most exciting thing in this program when
we see the principle of the rocket ship in action. A mild touch to the ripe fruit and a liquid stream gushes from the rear, a
recoil of which shoots the fruit several yards out toward a new rooting place. This is how nature in different and wonderful
ways provides for the new homes of her offspring.--Kieran

As Cortez is in Cuba organizing his expedition to Mexico, he learns that Governor Velasquez intends to depose him; never-
theless, he disregards the governor's representative. He arrives on the mainland, where he is met by ambassadors from
Montezuma bearing gifts of gold and jewels. Cortez then burns his fleet and plunges fearlessly into the interior. Scenes
show the expedition on the march, with the women and children following the foot soldiers and mounted Conquistadores.
At Cholulu the nephew of Montezuma comes to meet Cortez. He warns the Spaniard that his expedition faces annihila-
tion unless it turns back. In reply, Cortez orders his cannoneers to fire upon and destroy a stone idol. The chaplain of
expedition, who had come to convert the heathens to Christianity, is shocked by Cortez's ruthless attitude. The film
ends as Cortez sets out with Indian allies opposed to Montezuma to invade Mexico City. No scenes of battle or carnage are
shown, but the film provides a vivid background for the study of this period in history. The colorful costumes of the
Conquistadores are authentically reproduced, as are those of the retinues of the ambassadors from Montezuma. The ruth-
less, adventurous character of Cortez and his followers is excellently portrayed.--TFC

The complete life cycle of the bees is depicted in micro-photography from laying of the eggs through development of larva and emerging of mature insect. The food-gathering cycle is demonstrated in initial portion of the film, with the morning search of the bee for nectar and pollen. The camera then penetrates deep into the heart of the tree to show: birth of a queen, her triumph over potential rivals, the activities and duties of the drone, soldier, nurse. Equally amazing shots portray defense of hive from external enemies as well as from the natural enemy -- excessive heat. Pointed out in continuity, are: nectar dance of the bees, how the bee packs pollen into cells, description of development of young bee and its emergence into life of the hive, battle of soldier bees with a wasp, search for a new home, life of the new queen, and how tempera-
ture to hive cells is maintained.--UWF

voice from nowhere agrees with Jack. Where did the voice come from -- with nobody else in sight? Mary's little dog,
Rags, knows first that it is the dapper, little red car at the curb that's talking -- a happening so unheard of that Rags
scampers behind a tree for safety! Assured that here, indeed, is a friendly car that knows all of them and that can really
talk, Jack, Mary and Rags get his car's eye view of the traffic safety rules they've learned at school. Who is better able
than he to see traffic as it is ? This speaker really knows his subject. He's right there in traffic day and night -- see-
ing boys and girls and grownup pedestrians and drivers doing all the things in traffic that are either dangerous or safe.
The scenes show what the car and children are talking about in ways that would make it hard for any child who sees the
picture to forget. Of course, it's enough to make the car's owner scratch his head to return and see Jack and Mary
fondly tell his car "Goodbye." But, as the car explains, "Some folks just don't know that cars can talk!"--AAA

Tell-Tale Heart, jh-sh

2 reels
A dramatization of the Edgar Allen Poe short story, this film deals with a cruel and overbearing old man who drives the
weakling who works for him to murder. Suspense is built up throughout the picture, beginning with the weaving, the old
man's footsteps up the stairs and the quick slap in the workman's face for complaints he has been making. "You will be
dependent on me," says the old man, "as long as I live." The oiling of the door hinges, preparation of the lantern, and
suffocation of the old man follow. The murderer cannot rest and everything around him reminds him of the heart beat
of his victim. The story continues until the murderer's conscience forces him to give himself up. This dramatic-rhythmic
version of Poe's famous story used to advantage the film medium. It should be valuable in the study of Poe's work, a
study of dramatization of a short story, or a study of the use of music, sound, lighting, photography, and all of the tricks

4399
2 reels
The growing years between two and four -- at the beginning, the camera is trained on a nursery school play yard, on the
"terrible twos," pushing, crawling, climbing, in never-ceasing activity. The two-year-old's curiosity is insatiable. Discip-
line is best in the form of distraction--offering comfort or providing a substitute activity -- for reasoning and lecturing
are beyond his understanding. Curiosity can be channeled by providing toys that stimulate the creative imagination --
modeling clay, crayons, functional blocks. The two-year-old can help with little jobs, too, giving him a sense of security.
Tantrums are frequent at two and not to be taken too seriously at this age; they are often his attempt to express him-
self positively. Patience, says the film, and loving understanding will turn the stubbornly independent, turbulent two
into the tractable, loving three. The three's orbit has expanded. The child is now interested in the activities of those
around him, will share his toys for brief intervals. His activities are more purposeful; he is conscious of social approval
and desirous of winning it at home. Intensely interested in practicing newly-acquired skills, talking seems much more im-
portant to him than eating. Each child may not pass through each of these stages, but in general, parents and teachers will find that children tend to follow the pattern.--McGraw-Hill

This Charming Couple, jh-sh
4176
2 reels
This film focuses on a frequent cause of broken marriages -- the false ideals of "romantic" love on which too many mar-
riages are built. "This Charming Couple" follows the courtship of two young people who refuse to evaluate each others'
good qualities and shortcomings in a realistic, adult fashion. Winnie and Ken are very much in love -- but each with
a dream of the other. In a series of dramatic episodes, each clearly reveals certain characteristics of their true natures.
The audience sees that in every instance when an opportunity for proper appraisal of character or personality traits is
presented, Winnie and Ken are unwilling or unable to alter their romanticized ideas of each other to agree with actual
facts. Neither will change, yet each expects the other to conform after marriage to an idealized pattern. Because they
are in love with "love" and not with each other, their marriage is doomed to fail.--McGraw-Hill

trail to the hidden canyon, deep in the Western end of the 'Grand Canyon of Colorado. Here in the inaccessible reaches of

a peaceful agricultural people. The tractor of the tribe was dismantled and packed down wheel by wheel, and the camera

use of ancient dug-out sweat lodges by tribal sweat bathers today. Handicrafts are made from the materials at hand, in-

This is an illuminating film portrayal of how a counselor actually goes about the task of analyzing a case. By demon-
strating a typical student problem, the film shows how various counseling tools and techniques are applied. Lloyd
Thompson, the student presented, is an average high school boy of sixteen. Because he has fallen behind in his work,
his teacher advises a counseling interview. The counselor, Paul Draper, has been briefed on Lloyd's behavior. Before the
interview he goes over his file for a more complete check on the facts. As a trained counselor, he knows the value of an-
alytical tools: the cumulative record, tests, anecdotal record, autobiography, time distribution form and interviews. Be
ginning with the cumulative record, he finds a summary of the important data on Lloyd. Assembled here is an overall
view of his growth -- scholastic, physical, emotional. The counselor then checks the aptitude tests and the anecdotal
record -- a brief description by the teacher of the student's behavior. The student autobiography, a regular class
assignment which is kept on file in the school, is also checked. Used intelligently these tools provide the
basic information which enables the counselor and student to take the first step in the counseling process -- identifying
and analyzing the problem. But Draper knows that one interview is not a reliable basis for judging a student. There will
have to be more conferences so that Lloyd can work out his problem.--McGraw-Hill

Vandalism, el-jh-sh
3441
1 reel
Basically the approach is this: whether an act of vandalism is performed out of "youthful wildness," or deliberate crimi-
nal intent, the consequences are the same -- jail, a police record and stigma that may last a lifetime. Authorities "can't
read your minds," the boys and girls are told. Whether you steal that knife or wreck that automobile, or break a window,
or steal a car for "kicks," or as a deliberate criminal act, it looks the same to the victim, or the law enforcement officer.
And, the end result is that society is forced to protect itself, and the "wild kid" suffers just as surely as the habitual
criminal. The sensible boy or girl inevitably draws the right conclusion: He is living in a democratic society, with re-
sponsibilities as well as privileges. If he ignores his obligations, and violates the rights of others, he's going to pay for
it! There is no scolding; there are no don'ts! Typical examples of "wildness" are shown, along with their consequences.
The narrator draws the sensible conclusion that the youth had better channel his "high spirits" into activities that are
not going to injure others.--Sid Davis

This film contrasts the hustle of our modern cities with the serenity of the Hopi villages in the sky. Perched high on
the tips of three mesas in northern Arizona ,the Hopis have lived for over a thousand years. Paths lead up the sheer
cliffs to the pueblos built above the protection from enemy tribes in the plains below. The lowly burro transports folks
and supplies on the trails. Every daily task of the Hopis is set by custom, and women are assigned to separate duties from
men. Again, these tasks of the women are set by the mesa on which they live. On two of the mesas, we watch the
women weaving baskets, each a different type. On the first mesa, the camera records the potter's art, the lovely vessels
being shaped simply by hand, without even the use of the ancient potters wheel. Religion is the center of Hopi life and
the rituals are set by tradition. For the ceremonial, bread is baked in outdoor rock and adobe ovens. The women's Placque
Dance, which closes the film, is typical of the symbolic and reverent rituals by which these people of today hold to their ancient past.--ADP

life. Their homes hug close to the streams of their reservation, with modern cottages standing side by side with the
wickiup of earlier times. Because they were nomads, the Apaches became fine basket weavers and are famous today for
outstanding basketry. We even see the tus, a basket water jar, in use. The Apaches have turned their reservation into
one of Arizona's finest cattle ranches. Their fall sales of pure-bred cattle attract buyers from the entire Southwest. But

The film opens in a playroom where Tom, is impatiently watching his father finish a scale plan and computations for the
model railroad they are building. Tom is so eager to see his train running that he is annoyed at his father's insistence
on measurement and accuracy. In the discussion which follows, his father demonstrates the importance of measuring
things carefully. Though Tom has not been aware of it, weights and measures are an essential part of our everyday life.
The next sequence illustrates ways in which measures and weights are used in sports, at play, in hygiene, and ordinary
home activities. Tom has an opportunity to apply some measures when he figures out the square footage of plywood that
he will need to build his tracks on. The film dramatizes in an animation sequence the meaning of linear measures and
surface or area measures. It also provides, through animation, a plastic picture of the meaning of "a square foot."
While he is visiting his uncle on the farm, Tommy learns about large measures such as an acre. The picture gives us an
opportunity to compare area measures so that "the acre" becomes a clear visual image. Tom's uncle has built a small
storage bin. In helping his uncle, Tommy learns about volume measurement. He figures out the volume of the bin. While he works, the film explains cubic feet in animation.--EBP*

The late Tom Thomson occupies a place in Canadian art similar to that held in the United States by Benton and Curry.
His enthusiasm was like that which accompanied the growth of the United States Middle-Western school after the first
World War. Thomson was entirely self-taught; he did not become a painter until he was 36, and in four short years he
created timeless images of the North American scene that bear the stamp of courageous conviction. He was accidentally
drowned at the age of 40, while canoeing in Algonquin Park, the northern Ontario scene of many of his canvases. After
his death, his associates formed an enthusiastic movement known as the "Group of Seven." Firmly patterned landscapes
done with strong contours and bright colors are characteristic of the Group. West Wind attempts to reveal the rivers and
lakes of the Canadian North in the same way that they revealed themselves to Thomson. The cameraman followed by
canoe and by portage, along the routes the artist used to travel. Scene by scene, the canvases he painted are compared
with the living reality of his canoe trips and his camping locations. Close-ups show Thomson's brush techniques and the
film emphasizes the artist's deep feeling for the country he painted.--CFB

with which the film begins reveals how reluctant each one is to surrender any part of his individuality to the essential
compromises of marriage. Shocked by the threat this offers to their marriage, they determine to make an honest co-
operative effort to save it. Adjustments are not easy, for each is accustomed to think in terms of himself as an individual
first, and only secondarily as a member of a partnership. But a good balance can be achieved with patience and love and
understanding -- and at the end of the film Ginny and Mike are tasting the fruits of a marriage to which each contributes

genuine mood of "feeling sorry" -- that it happened and that the other can't see how wrong he is. Eleven months ago,
when the Carsons were married, Frank liked Honey for the very qualities he now criticizes -- her good taste, her clothes
and grooming. Honey admired Frank's steadiness about money and his ability to take care of situations -- traits she
picks on now. What has happened? With the narrator we review the events that led up to this latest quarrel. We see
that while each is basically a sensible, responsible person, neither makes a real effort to understand the other's situation
or problems. Each tries to justify his own viewpoint throughout the quarrel and afterward. Unless the Carsons can learn
to put their marriage partnership above self-interest, they will continue to undermine the marriage they are working to
build.--McGraw-Hill

he knows. He has little self-confidence and gives up easily. The average classroom usually has a few pupils who have
reading problems. Most such difficulties can be handled if the classroom teacher organizes small remedial groups and de-
vises special teaching methods to meet the needs of the individuals. Some reading problems are more persistent, so that
the teacher has neither the time nor the training to cope with them. Such is the case of Jimmy.--Syracuse

contributing to its productiveness. How this soil world maintains a harmonious balance is shown in highly magnified se-
quences employing time-lapse photography and photomicrography. The film deals extensively with soil substance, ana-
lyzing different types of soil structure and their resistance to varying natural conditions. Suggestions are made as to
how man can make his own contributions to the good of the earth. Since time immemorial the silent, invisible forces
of nature have operated in a perpetual rhythm to provide the very substance of life upon the earth. This film deals with
the most important factor m the earth's recurring cycle of growth and decay, the soil. The film illustrates, with samples
of garden and forage crops, how vital a healthy condition of the soil is to both plants and animals. The microscope shows
how nature strives to maintain a balance in the bacterological life of the soil as we watch disease-causing fungi meet their
adversaries in antibiotic organisms. The value of this discovery to medicine is noted. In the realm of the insect world
nature blends the evil with the good to maintain a harmonious balance. The next sequence shows how tjie jungle law
applies underground as much as aboveground, as we see stronger insects devour the weaker, and parasitic insects prev
upon their victims The concluding sequence deals with proper soil management and the need for a thorough understanding of the soil and the laws that govern it.--IFB.

political event. Caesar, the most popular man in Rome and commander of her victorious armies, already holds every legiti-

him the imperial crown. Peeling runs high in the senate, for a movement is gaining strength to head off what some
solons consider national suicide. Will the senate bow to Caesar's ambition -- or defy him ? The outcome depends on four
factors: the influence of the army, the attitude of the free citizens of Rome, the strength of Caesar's own desire and the
courage of the individual senators. Senator Cassius urges the conspirators against Caesar to strike at once. Brutus,
who loves Caesar, wants to believe that Caesar will respect a Senate vote if they are united and firm. "Only," retorts
Cassius, "when he's dead." Brutus pleads with Caesar to renounce his ambitions, but Caesar has only contempt for the
senate. ' Thus the stage is set for Caesar's death, an event that will change the course of world history.--YA

Behind the front lines, at the Chandler home in Fairfield, Virginia, Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson lies dying, vic-

upon by his own men. If Jackson dies, the South will be at a loss to replace him, for he is a brilliant strategist, and even
more important, has a gift for leadership which inspires intense devotion among his followers. Many Southerners fear
the loss of General Jackson will mean a backward step despite the recent victories, for the South depends greatly on the
skill and dash of his generals. At his headquarters that afternoon, General Lee is concerned with two problems: his next
move against the Army of the Potomac, and how to replace Stonewall Jackson should the need arise. Lee knows that to

segments of the population. On the other side is Thomas Jefferson who believes that if the document is revised to the
point where it satisfies all of the delegates "it will end up by expressing the will of none." Finally, there are those who
would forego publication of the Declaration until the fight for independence has been won, maintaining it will only cause
dissension at this time. In the end the day is carried by men like Samuel Adams who believes immediate publication of
the Declaration is the wisest course, that it will act as a catalyst, unifying the populace in the imminent struggle for In-

ier that day, came to tell him of her engagement to a young nobleman. Because of the affection he feels for her, Bee-
thoven is deeply hurt by the unexpected news and is also chagrined to think he has completely misunderstood the many
kindnesses she has shown him. More painful, however, is the knowledge she revealed to him by an incident occurring dur-

Alexander the Great, after 11 years of conquest during which he has led the men of his native Macedonia in triumph to
lands as far distant as India, has decided to order home the oldest and weariest of his troops, sending them well-honored
and gift-laden. The men, however, feel Alexander no longer loves them or depends on them and believe they are being
sent away because Alexander, in his present exalted position as master of almost the entire world and an elected god of
the Greeks, regards their presence as an embarrassing reminder of his humble origins. Siding with the veterans, the
younger Greek and Macedonian soldiers have asked to be sent home with their older brothers-in-arms. Interpreting this
request as a mutiny, Alexander angrily tells them to go and plans to replace them with an army of 30,000 Persians trained
in the Greek Manner. Before the troops depart, Alexander meets with the men in an effort to discover why they have
turned against him. He tells them that he demanded to be deified by the Greek cities and Macedonia in order to bring
an end to disunity. Formerly, as president of the Greek cities under the covenant of the League of Corinth, he could
exercise authority only in certain foreign matters. As a god he will be free to make decrees, force the Greeks to forget
past hatreds and unite as one people. Building on this limited ideal of unity, Alexander tells his men how he came to
believe that it was possible to achieve "harmony among all the peoples of the earth." It is this vision of the brotherhood
of man, one of the first recorded by historians, that wins back for Alexander the loyalty of his comrades-in-arms.--YA

They all acclaim him as a great leader. As a person they have found him to be reserved, somewhat of the "Virginia-
gentleman" in his distant manner, and because they believe he is a man who has carefully trained himself "to react to
all situations with the objectivity of the mind rather than the uncertain recklessness of the heart," they are certain his
behavior on this sensitive occasion will be "polite, mannered, gracious and, if he says anything at all, it will be very
proper and probably extremely dull." Contrary to expectation, however, this final meeting of Washington and his old

Featured in the film are Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, Jack Benny, Ann Blyth, Bing Crosby, Paul Douglas, Irene Dunne,

is to get more people of high purpose into the vital fields that effect, for better or worse, the majority of mankind. Such
as teaching, governing, writing, labor, social service and library work, and thus oppose the infiltration of those fields of
endeavor by persons of Communist and Socialist convictions.--Christophers

You, the People, jh-sh-t
5958
2 reels
A dramatization of the operations of a corrupt city political machine, including methods of coercion, stuffing ballot boxes,
and persuading citizens that voting is futile. In most respects this film rates as a superior attempt to focus attention upon
the evils of political corruption in a big city. It is packed with illustrations of the devices of crooked politics and should
be of informative value for audiences in general. The emphasis upon voting as the one solution to democracy's political
problems is an oversimplification, but need not affect the usefulness of You, the People as a discussion film. A leader
will need considerable skill to relate the lessons of the film to the realities of most communities because political activi-
ties of the wrong order are, more often than not, rtaid and dreary affairs rather than dramatic and exciting.--TFC

Your Child Is a Genius, sh-t

2 reels
The narrator patiently explains to uncomprehending adults why expression through crayon, paint and paper is important
to the child. He points out that children, though ignorant of technical means, are assured in transforming their ideas into
concrete expression. Though he insists that the act and the satisfactions attained by the child are the important things,
never-the-less few adults can help being impressed by the talent and genuine expressiveness evident in many of the ex-
amples of work shown in the course of the film. The camera has caught the spirit of children absorbed in creative effort
remarkably and the fine color registration is extremely important in bringing out the boldness of colors and conceptions.

This film catalog is furnished free for the use of the public schools of Georgia. Three catalogs per registration will be furnished and six catalogs per double registration.

Do not use any old catalogs or supplements. All previous catalogs and supplements are combined in this edition and will be obsolete on August 1, 1955. All requests must be made from this catalog after that date.

FOREWORD
The Georgia State Department of Education is continuing to offer to its teachers the largest and finest collection of 16mm educational sound pictures to be found in any state in the nation. Georgia teachers have a wealth of teaching material at their command, which is enriching the learning experience of their students.
This is perhaps the largest and finest list of non-sponsored sound films being offered by any state in the Union. We feel that this type of educational offering is delightfully interesting and professionally worthwhile. The proper use of films in the schools can and will shorten teaching time, increase average educational level, and open up interesting, constructive, challenging and inspiring new worlds for pupils who are eager to learn.
Your fine, sympathetic spirit of cooperation is making it possible for the State Department of Education to render a larger and more efficient service year by year. This catalog contains many new up-to-the minute films--the finest that our professional committees have been able to find. With such a wide variety of 16mm sound films to choose from, it becomes more important than ever that teachers use greater care in the selection and use of the material. We sincerely trust that you will use the material asit is intended--that is, to instruct and enrich the learning experiences of your students.

INTRODUCTION
This Catalog Supplement together with Catalog No. 5 constitutes a complete set of current Film Catalogs and all other catalogs are obsolete and should not be used. We will only be able to furnish one copy of this catalog per school registration since it is only possible to do a limited number by this multilithing process.
Please do not make your requests solely from this supplement for if you do, you will have many delays and disappointments in getting the films. It will be necessary for the Library to acquire new prints of this material and it takes some time to get the orders to the producers and the films delivered.
Announcements concerning the Audio-Visual Matching Funds will go forward to system superintendents as soon as possible. The Department of Education wishes to encourage the establishment and development of local audio-visual material centers just as fast as funds will permit.
I would like to call your attention to the Tape Service that is now available to you at no cost whatsoever. More details of this service are given near the back of this supplement.
The entire unit wishes to thank everyone who has cooperated in helping to make this program possible. Your continued cooperation and suggestions for the betterment of the service are welcome at all times.

Note to Principals and Coordinators:
Please read these instructions before registering your school for the use of films. Be sure that you thoroughly understand how to make your reguests and use one of the plans below. This will avoid delays. Principals should appoint coordinators and see that sufficient time is allowed for the coordinator to perform the duties related to this work. This is important and necessary for your audio-visual program to operate properly.
1. Register your school, using Form AV-1, with the Film Library serving your area with a fee of $10. After January 15 each year, a school can register for the fee of $5 for the balance of the school year. Make checks payable to State Board of Education. Please do not send cash. No refund can be made.
2. All requests must be made by the appointed coordinator only and on the official blanks. (Form AV-2). Keep some on hand at all times. Notify us before you get out. If your school changes coordinators, the Library must be notified.
3. The quota for each Registration is 8 films per week for the 1956-57 term. If your enrollment exceeds 500 students, two fees can be paid and 16 films per week can be booked. If it is necessary to change the film allotment from year to year, schools will be notified in advance.
4. Do not ask for a film to be reserved unless you intend using it. This might deprive another school the use of the film that really needs it.
5. Make your requests in one of the following ways. This is important and necessary.
a. For the entire school year all at one time. Send a supplementary list of second choices at the same time if you wish. (If you use this method, additional requests for classroom use cannot be honored during the year.)
b. For a term or semester all at one time. Send a supplementary list of second choices at the same time if you wish. (No additional requests can be accepted during the term or semester.)
c. By the month and at least a full month's requests all at one time. September and October requests should be made together. During the balance of the year, send requests for only one month at a time and send them 30 days in advance; otherwise the Library may not have time to book the material. Send a supplementary list of second choices at the same time if you wish. (No additional requests will be honored for classroom use during the month.)
Requests not made in accordance with one of the above ways will be returned. Your cooperation will help us to do a better job for you.
6. Be sure to give correct titles and catalog numbers for each film. Films are pulled by catalog numbers and it is imperative that the Shipping Clerks have the correct numbers of the films that, you request.
If an occasional film is needed for school related groups or outside meetings, these can be requested provided the name of the group (other than classroom) and the EXACT DATE of use are given. Always list a second and third choice. If the films cannot be used except the date you list, please state this.
8. No admission charge can be made by the users of films borrowed from the State Department of Education. Users must agree to this provision in order to obtain films from the State Film Libraries.
9. Start with the first date that you wish to use films and follow a progressive H
date sequence to the end of the period for which you are making your requests. Do not mix the months or the dates.
10. Coordinators must sign each request blank, with name of school, complete street address and town. Be sure to list your local zone number.
11. The extra-activity films cannot be booked without the reason for their use being given. (These films are not to be used in the classroom, only for outside meetings. Please observe this limitation and do not request for school use.)
12. When it is necessary for films to be cancelled, always return the Confirmation before shipment is to be made by the Film Library. Check the space at the bottom of the blank indicating cancellation and send to your Library so that cancellation can be accomplished before the shipping date shown in the lower left-hand corner of slip.
13. Be sure that films are in the right cans before returning. Also, send films back on the same size reel as you receive them. Do not send the 400 ft. round hubbed reels. They are not acceptable, only straight-sided ones.
14. Please do not send bent or damaged reels to your Film Library that you receive
from some other source. State Department of Education's reels are all
properly marked with a special ink so that they can be recognized by your
Film Library. Good, straight-sided steel reels will be exchanged with users,
but damaged reels not bearing the special marking of your Film Library will
be returned to you for replacing.
15. Each film is sealed with an inspection seal, and it will be impossible to use the film unless this seal is broken. If for some reason you cannot use the
I
film, make sure the seal is not broken. If seal is broken, we must assume
that you used the film and inspect it. In this case, notices about rewinding
will go out.
16. FILM DAMAGEJ Never allow anyone to attempt to run the projector that is not experienced and qualified. Free practice reels of film will be sent coordinators by your Film Libraries for teaching personnel to project films. Remember that most film damage occurs while the "expert" projectionist is relaxing at the projector. Never use scotch tape to repair films. This usually causes more damage. Your projector dealer will teach your personnel to operate your projector. Ask him.
17. DO NOT REWIND FILMS. After showing a film, do not rewind it. Always wait and only rewind when you are ready to re-show the film. Returning more than three films rewound will cause suspension of the service. This is necessary if we are to maintain the service on such a vast scale.
18. Always return the films in the same cases in which you receive them. Otherwise, the postage may be incorrect and the parcel will be delayed. Always leave shipping tickets in the cases and this will help you determine the right cases for the films. Do not get the top of the cases mixed.
19. Always return films promptly and never hold over for any reason. This causes the next school to lose the use of the material.
20. Be sure to indicate school holidays on each request blank and do not ask for films on those days.
21. Be sure to make arrangements to train some other teacher to properly handle your audio-visual duties during any time that you are absent from school. This is important and constitutes one of the most important duties of a
coordinator. Serving as coordinator usually requires more time than other duties given a teacher and Principals should allow sufficient time off for these duties.
22. Immediately notify your Film Library of any irregularity.

Lighted and heated with a candle only, the igloo will warm to about 20 degrees above zero when the outside temperature is far below zero. On floating pans of ice the hunters seek the walrus, polar bear, and the all-important hair seal. There is danger of loss because of the speed with which the seal can disappear after a shot has been fired, and the hazard of the frail boat's being crushed by the huge, floating ice cakes. But the seal is snagged; the hunt is successful. And it will provide skin for parkas, meat, and fuel oil. A hunt usually lasts about six weeks. After the hunters have returned home, Eskimo women process the seal blubber and stretch the skins for drying. The summer hunts have provided life's essentials for the Eskimos' long winter. --Bailey

DESK FOR BILLIE, A, PART I, sh-t
4507
3 reels
Billie began Life as the child of migrant parents. The first memories of
her childhood were of dusty roads, an open car puff ing through the rain
and snow and hot sun, and of a tent pitched for sleeping and living in the
open air. She had no real home. She felt that her family was not even
real.... in the way of people who lived in houses, and ate from tables
with forks and knives. Slowly a question formed in Billie's mind. How
do people become "real people"? What made the children in the towns
different from her? Why didn't they have to sell baskets that their fathers
made? The answer came to her through the words of a tramp who camped
for a while in the hobo jungle where they stopped. He talked about SCHOOL.
This, he explained, made the difference between "real people" and her
family. "Real children" went to school.. . AND SCHOOLS WERE FREE IN
AMERICA. This is what Billie learned. This is why little Billie and her
sister started to school. Of course, she had to wear ragged dresses.
But that made no difference. She could still have a desk all to herself
wherever her family traveled. The teachers mattered, too. There was
one teacher who pulled Billie from her loneliness and gave her companion-
ship by allowing her to tend the flowers in the classroom. Further along
the dusty road, there was the teacher who recognized Billie's need for
glasses and bought them for her, and the teacher in high school who loaned
Billie a dress for her first party. And finally the American schools awarded
Billie a diploma, recognition of her successful fight to become a "real
person, " educated and prepared to live the migrant trails, the back roads,
tents, makeshift camps, poor food. . . the endless life of nothingness.
Today, Mrs. Billie Davis is a successful editor, writer and Lecturer.
Her Life story appeared in the Saturday Evening Post Article, "I was

LEARNING IS SEARCHING: A THIRD GRADE
STUDIES MAN'S EARLY TOOLS, sh-t
4518
3 reels
An authentic record of the work of an unusually fine third grade as the
children study the origins of tools is presented in this sensitive film.
It is a study of teaching and learning processes as well as an intimate
study of young children. The film gives candid documentation on one
approach to learning carried out in a school and its neighborhood.
This technique of learning by searching is offered as one way that can
be used with many topics by other teachers and other groups of children.
Essentially this teaching method is concerned with methods of learning,
with how to find out about things and how to search for knowledge. The
children search for facts, building always on what they know. They are
stimulated to question, to probe, to examine, to test and create. They
learn the traditional three"R's" both within the scope of their study of
tools and through other classes. How the teacher can use modern
knowledge of children in achieving the universal goals of education is
well portrayed in this film. The antics of children of the third grade
are humorously recorded. Their needs and interests, delicate
reminders of their limitations and exciting indications of their
potentialities are integral parts of this film. One section lets us hear
the children and teacher talking about their work. These records show
that children develop unexpected abilities when given the opportunity,
the environment and the proper working materials. The feeling of what
modern education can be like at its best is given in this pictorial record
of a third grade. We watch the children learn that tools are ways of solv-
ing problems but, more important, we watch the children developing
exciting tools for learning during the rest of their lives. --MHMC

The film begins in the plantations with the tapping of the trees by Malayan,

the estate factory where it is either concentrated and exported as latex or
processed into sheet rubber. Constant research in modern laboratories
insures that the industry is efficient in its methods and that production costs
are kept to a minimum. Every year hundreds of acres of old rubber or
virgin jungle are cleared and new plants are started which in six years will
be strong trees ready for tapping. Care of the workers on a rubber estate
is as much a part of the efficiency of the estate as research. Most manage-
ments provide houses, schools and sports facilities for their employees and

works by taking a "whiff" of a person and it opens the door. It also
works better with the scent of a lemon. Beanblossom is in the midst of
renting a whole floor of offices to the Federal Farm Agency and has an
appointment with their representative. Beanblossom,thinking he is talking
to their representative, Mr. Donaldson, is actually being interviewed by
the income tax investigator. In order to make a big impression he gives
fantastic gross figures that the Thackery Realty Company is supposedly
making and when he discovers his mistake, the internal revenue man
starts an investigation on the firm. Thackery returns and they decide the
only thing to do is to dress up in ragged clothes and make the office look like they are completely "down and outers. "--Fleetwood

After a bawling out from Mr. Thackery, Beanblossom decides to become
a brash, breezy salesman. In the meantime, Mr. Thackery becomes
involved in a real estate deal with a lady mortician, Mrs. Ada Morgan.
It develops that Mrs. Morgan has a strong dislike for brash and breezy
salesmen. When Beanblossom appears on the scene playing his new role,
Thackery is horrified and Mrs. Morgan is appalled. Their real estate
transaction appears doomed to failure--especially when Thackery destroys
a very expensive vase. Mrs. Morgan's vampish daughter, Leticia, is
smitten by the new Beanblossom. Beanblossom is flattered--however, he
doesn't know about the young lady's profession. There is a sparkling bit
of double entendre as Leticia proceeds to woo Beanblossom. Mrs. Morgan
finally comes around and Thackery remains completely flabbergasted.

Mr. Thackery and Robert S. Beanblossom take a trip to Mexico at the
insistence of two prospective customers who are seeking a cattle ranch.
When Bob and his boss arrive at the ranch, they discover they are to be
the victims of a kidnapping plot. It seems that the two prospective pur-
chasers actually want to kidnap Thackery and Beanblossom--and use the
ranch as a hideout for their smuggling activities. Thackery and
Beanblossom disguise themselves as Mexican peasants. After much
hilarity, the two obtain guns and succeed in freeing themselves from
their captors. By the end of the picture, Beanblossom has convinced
the two smugglers to go straight; and as we fade out we see that the
smugglers have turned into restaurant owners, and the ranch becomes
an "Enchillada Palace. "--Fleetwood
