29 CLASS 1 — Travel, Sports, Manners and Customs REEL NO. TITLE PRODUCER 1067 Code CAMIR Mississippi's Water Baby Chester A trip to Lake Itasca, Minnesota, the source of the great Missisippi River. In the beginning of this picture are some of the most beautiful cloud effects that have ever been filmed. The country is wild and lovely and abounds in game, some of which is kept in great game preserves. In one of these we see deer making remarkable jumps over a high rail fence. They seem to float thru the air and are wonderfully graceful. On a small bay a flock of wild ducks are swimming; near by is an Indian Reservation ; still further on we see beavers industriously building their dams and houses. Then we have a thrill — a forest fire approaches and we follow its deadly course, watching the attempts to check it and seeing it drive the unsuccessful fighters from their homes. This film is well worth while. Not only does it offer beautiful scenery and good photography, but some unusual sights as well. 691 feet standard length Rental $1.00 1068 Code CAMOR The Happy Duffer Sport Pictorial Golf is featured as the national game, and we follow, through a day's sport, an average poor player from which the subject takes its title. During the duffer's progress we are shown some of the correct methods of holding the clubs as well as some of the peculiarly clumsy methods for which the average duffer is famous. This subject will please either the amateur or professional golfer and has quite a good deal of interest even for one who cares nothing for the game. 984 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1069 CodeCAMUR Make or Break Sport Pictorial Featuring athletic sports which have been popular with young men from the. time of ancient Greece to that of the modern college man. Very excellent normal and slow motion photography portrays the actual effort involved in throwing the javelin, discus, and the hammer, putting the shot and the track sports of 100 yard dash, the mile relay, the high hurdle race, pole vaulting and the running high jump. The strenuous nature of some of the sports is very clearly indicated. 767 feet standard length Rental $1.00 1071 Code CANE Open Trails Sport Pictorial Introducing our national game of baseball and showing its tremendous appeal to vast multitudes.
