H AN UNUSUAL AND IMPORTANT NEW FILM FROM CORONET ^^ Soviet limn The Land and the People . . . ff Here is a striking photographic survey of this vast and important country. With skill and imagination Coronet has succeeded in selecting from thousands of feet of existing film a complete and well-organized overview of the Soviet Union. For geography students from the intermediate grades to senior high school the film shows: the vast size of the Soviet Union; the diversity of its population, resources, land, and climate; a visualization of the differences between the four basic regions in the Soviet Union; its development from an agricultural to an industrial nation; and the organization and goals of its government. W. R. McConnell, Ph.D., Professor of Geography, Emeritus, Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, served as Educational Collaborator for the film and added materially to its value by drawing liberally on his first-hand knowledge of the Soviet Union. The film is 1% reels in length and is available in black-and-white only.
