Oceanography Filmslrips (4 filmstrips, color; produced by Community Educational Resources, Dept. of Education, San Diego County, Calif.; see catalog for price details). Individual titles in this set are "Turn To The Ocean: Oceanographic Power"; "Project Mohole"; and "Underwater Acoustics." As with the study prints offered by this same producer, regional resources have been made available for our study. In each instance diagrams and photographs take us to places where vital research is helping modern exploration. Project Mohole takes us to an area where drilling beneath the earth's crust takes place. The two strips dealing with oceanography in particular show us many of the undersea forms of life and the equipment which man is using in his study of deep sea resources. Underwater acoustics gives an interesting account of the sonar ability of some animals. Each strip is so planned that we feel as though we had taken a field trip and were present to observe the research and to participate in the activities. Very well suited to science work in the junior and senior school. There are few areas where similar research is going on, and the strips are a valuable contribution for all science classes. We need the information provided and this is an instance of how local or regional organizations can help provide schools with valuable learning resources. Wildlife Of The West (5 strips, c-olor; produced by John W. Gunter, 125 North B Street, San Mateo, Calif.; $27.00 per set, $6 single strips). Another instance of regional resources made available for us— the story of "Life In The Wild," "Mammals of the Mountains," "M a m m a 1 s Of The Plains," "Birds Of The Forests And Fields," "Water Birds." These strips take us to see animals and birds in their natural habitats; they include diagrams and pictures showing physical adaptations for meeting needs; and how these animals help to maintain a balance of nature. Rodents, deer, gulls, pelicans, magpies, larks, cranes, cormorants and many others are shown, and the photographs are good. The information opens the natural resources of the western area for us to study and is excellent for any consideration of our national wildlife resources. 392 Educational Screen and Audiovisual Guide — July, 1962
