CLASS 11— Miscellaneous 93 COURTESY TITLE REEL NO. CLASS ELEVEN MISCELLANEOUS Courtesy of PETERSON'S CAMERA EXCHANGE 7000 THE KITTEN AND THE DUCKS TICKLE BILL, A TRAINED FLY TINY TROUBLES OUR NAVY IN THE WORLD WAR "THE KITTEN AND THE DUCKS" shows a kitten and three ducks which stage a wrestling match. The kitten pounces on one duck after the other, sometimes aiming at one and jumping on one of the others. "TICKLE BILL, A TRAINED FLY," fulfills the unbelievable promise made by the title. This clever insect actually lies on its back and juggles various objects such as a toy chair, telescope and a ball. It also sits on a chair in front of a table and eats from a tiny dish. "TINY TROUBLES" features the everyday occupations of an attractive young lady two years old, who washes her doll's clothes, wheels her doll buggy and goes out in her nighty to fetch the funny papers. Charmingly cute. "OUR NAVY IN THE WORLD WAR" is one of the official fihns made under action by the United States Navy. Varied and enjoyable entertainment. 1 Reel Courtesy of MOWRY'S PHOTO SERVICE 7001 KILLING THE KILLER THE GRAND NATIONAL STEEPLECHASE, 1930 A REAL RODEO (PENDLETON, OREGON) "KILLING THE KILLER" is recognized internationally as one of the most remarkable animal pictures ever made. A mongoose, the animal made famous by Kipling, engages in a death struggle with a cobra, India's most venomous snake. The spectators view every detail of the battle from ringside seats. "THE GRAND NATIONAL STEEPLECHASE" took place in 1930 at Aintree, England. So hazardous is this course that out of a large field of riders only three were in at the finish. The film contains some beautiful shots in sloAV motion and in suspended action as well as in regular tempo. "A REAL RODEO" was made at Pendleton, Oregon, famous for its rodeos. In addition to the standard stunts, such as steer roping, bucking broncos, and bulldogging there are some new and original feats, including driving a bucking steer hitched to a chariot. For unusual thrills it would be hard to equal this film. 1 Reel Let Your Local Hospital Use Your Projector
