Indiana War Film Program At a Conference on February 5th, representatives of four educational institutions and the Indiana Defense Council met to organize an Indiana War Films Council. Members of this Council are: L. C. Larson (Indiana University), Chairman; Lloyd Miller (Purdue Univer- sity) ; Evelyn Hoke (Ball State Teachers College) ; V. L. Tatlock (Indiana State Teachers College) ; and N. M. Goudy (Indiana Defen.se Council). The following recommendations were approved : The Indiana War Films Council is to assume responsi- bility for coordinating and e.xpediting the use ol audio- visual aids in OCD programs. Films allocated to the State OCD Council will be re- allocated by the War Films Council to the four state institutions, with the exception of a limited numljer of prints of each subject that are to be retained for use by the State OCD training staff. Films purchased by the State OCD Council will l)e placed on deposit with the four state institutions. The four state institutions will make the regular estab- lished service charge, for government films, of SO cents for the first subject, and 25 cents for each additional subject booked for the same shipment. The four state institutions will also purchase within the limitations of their budgets, films suitable for training and informational programs, which will be made available under the customary rentals and enrollment plans of each institution. All announcements and publicity prepared by the Indiana War Films Council covering the selection, distribution, and utilization of films suitable for OCD programs will be handled by the Publications Department of the State Office of Civilian Defense Council. The four state institutions will cooperate in the prepara- tion of discussion guides and other types of materials which will contribute to a better utilization of audio-visual aids for training and informational purposes.
