November, 1943 Page 361 Miss Miller's geography class is off to Africa with Count Byron de Prorok, famed archeologist of thirty far-flung expeditions. "Ancient Trails in North Africa" is more than a pleasant travelogue. It re- veals the history of man in this forgot- ten part of the earth ... traces his devel- opment from antiquity to the present day. Count de Prorok toured army camps to lecture and show this film to troops preparing for the African in- vasion. "Ancient Trails in North Africa" is now available from the B&H Filmo- sound Library, for your use in supple- menting regular classroom work. The already huge list of Filmosound Library titles is being augmented almost daily by Government films. One of the finest thus far is "Wings Up." It's the fascinating story of the U. S. Air Corps Officer Candidate School. You'll be in- spired by the caliber of the men and the "brass tacks" practicality of their train- ing. It's a grand film for American Education Week, Nov. 7-13. The theme of the observance this year is "Educa- tion for Victory," ideally symbolized by this great film. Clark Gable does the commentary.
