Subjects include Ha- waiian volcanoes, the Palisades, eruptions of a South American volcano and Mt. Vesuvius, and a recent cinder cone of Las- sen Peak."

Animation, combined with photography, explains many of the more important phenomena of volcanism such as dikes; batholiths; sills; laccoliths; metamorphism; and products of volcanism including lava, cinder, and ash; types of volcanic cones; and the distribution of ac- tive and inactive volcanoes throughout the world."

ISmin 16-si-$24 1933 Eastman 551.3 "Introduces the student to the rock-soil cycle by means of demonstrations, anima- tions, and actual photography. The story of the disintegration of rock includes the work of the weather, stream erosion and transportation, glaciers, wind and waves, rain and air, and plants and animals."

Graphically, this film presents another of the basic geologi- cal facts, driving its points home with scenes taken all over the world, where there were formations which succinctly told a story. How rocks are decomposed; how caves and sink holes are made; and how glaciers are formed and the work they do; how blowing sand erodes the sur- face of the earth; and how the waves are reshaping the coast line, all these are clearly illustrated."

It shows the forma- mation of rain and how the atmosphere works with surface water, how it is neces- sary to the formation of soil and in fact for life sh-c Guide 551.3 f Glaciers Geological work of ice.
