ATOMIC POWER 2 reels, sound. $4.00 a day (Guide) (MOT) This film describes the story of atomic power. It goes back to the early beginnings of research and development in 1905, when Einstein proved on paper that matter can be converted into energy. The story of the development of the atomic bomb is re-enacted—with Fermi, Einstein, Pegram, Bush, Conant, and others recreating on the screen the secret roles they played during the war. And with the atomic age now a reality, the film shows how the men who fathered this revolutionary weapon are today conducting a vigorous campaign to impress upon the American public its full meaning. BABY MEETS HIS PARENTS i reel, sound. $2.50 a day (Guide) (EBP) Produced by Encyclopedia Britannica Films in collaboration with Lawrence K. Frank, Director of the Zachry Institute of Human Development No. i in the "Series on Personality Development." The film states that we are all different not only because of hereditary factors but be- cause we have been treated differently in early life. The shaping of the baby's personality is determined largely by the manner in which his early needs are met. If his needs for food and elimination and love are met with understanding and affection, he learns to trust the world and to feel secure in it. His first relationship, therefore, is with his parents who, in their treatment of him, become symbols of the world to his growing personality. BALLOONS: AGGRESSION AND DESTRUCTION GAMES (see page 136)
