The approved method of treatment is il- lustrated "A good film to illustrate the proper technique in using the U.S. Government snakebite kit. Clear and concise." Robert A. Sencer Jh-sh-adult Harbor safety measures. (Harbor activity ser.) ISmin 16-si-$24 1939 Frith 614.8 One "of eight reels making up the Har- bor Activities Series (which) is one of the finest series of films this previewer has seen. The individual films . . . are sepa- rate units and can be used separately. However the eight make a fine series of films on a very important topic that is passed over too lightly in our schools. The pliotography, to use Hollywood, is superb. . . The titles are very clever both from a technical and pedagogical viewpoint. The subject is most authentic and presented in a very interesting manner. The editing is unusual for this type of film. . . They can profitably be used in History, Geog- raphy, Civics or Activity Groups studying. Transportation, Government Agencies, Mu- nicipal Agencies, Tariff, Public Health, Safety. Water Travel, First Aid and Com- munication." Committee on classroom films "After general navy shots, this film pro- ceeds in more detail to the work of the Coast Guard with its threefold duty: (1) maintenance of law and order, (2) assist- ance in national defense, and (3) saving life and property. We see a Coast Guard official inspecting a fishing boat that has just returned from Mexican waters: sema- phore signaling with accurate messages, which boy scouts, and persons informed on signaling, can read: direction of the crew with a boatswain's whistle, as the sound carries better than a bugle in stormy weather; Coast Guard method of artificial respiration, employing five men: boat races, etc. In a 'man-overboard' drill, life-boats are lowered and a mad race ensues. Next, several harbor wrecks are shown. A deep- sea diver rescues a sunken yacht, and brings it to the surface of the water. Ex- planations are given regarding his air- intake, regulation of air-pressure, etc. Later, we see the work of the harbor fire- men. . . We see them in action, and the climax of the film is the fireboat, working at full capacity." Producer Heedless hurry—endless worry. IR 16-si- sd-$55 1939 Welsh 614.8 ALSO AVAILABLE FROM 16mm sd: NCB "An excellent film in both subject matter presentation and technical details to show why safety is an educational process in which each individual must do his part. The necessity for this is emphasized by portraying various situations: pedestrians crossing the street in center of block; street ball players; elderly people crossing streets with difficulty; dangers from im- proper parking; causes of night accidents on country roads; and results from driving too fast—all common causes of daily acci- dents which cannot be stressed too much nor too often for the common good of all. The recording of the commentator's voice is very clear, with good enunciation." Committee on classroom films "This is one of the few safety films suitable for elementary showing, altho there are a number of crash scenes in the picture. Advertising is limited to mention of name of the AAA at beginning and end."
