See confesf rules on inside front cover Plan now to enter your film in this oldest of amateur movie contests Three new films completed in recent months by N. P. Hariharan. ACL. of Madras, India, have, to our Western ears, especially intriguing titles. They are Dances of Kerala, Snake Boat Races and Gods Parade. The last-named depicts Trivandrum's famous temple and the annual festival when that temples deities are taken out for a mammoth parade through the streets. The snake-boat races take place in Travancore-Cochin state, with each of the boats manned by a hundred or more men clad in gay and festive attire. Folk dances, such as the Kathakali and Ottam Thullal. native to India's Kerala Coast, are featured in the third film. We should like very much to see some of these one day. Seedtime and Harvest is a new 16mm. sound-color film made by the Reverend D. Kirk Hammond, ACL, of Baltimore, for use by local churches and presbyteries. The film depicts the story of the Cooperative Parish Plan used in three presbyteries in Virginia. This is one of several pictures which Mr. Hammond has produced for use by church groups. The films are distributed on a rental basis by the Department of Promotion of the Board of Church Extension. Atlanta, Georgia. I ntrepid is the word for Jerry! Jerry More, ACL, member of this year's graduating class at Dartmouth and a stalwart of that school's Mountaineering Club, stopped by recently to tell us about the expedition he helped form to scale the dizzy heights of Mt. McKinley. They are the first Mt. McKinley climbers ever to reach the top of Peter's Dome, something over 20.000 feet up. Jerry took his first movies on this extraordinary excursion, and they can be described quietly as sensational. One JERRY MORE, ACL, leader of a recent assault on Mt. McKinley by Dartmouth College climbers. A FILM FRAME from Gods Parade, a recent picture by N. P. Hariharan, ACL, Madras, India. year in planning, the expedition took about two months to complete, with roughly six weeks of it spent on the mountainsides. Mrs. DeLylia Mortag and Joseph Salerno. 1951 club contest winners of the Milwaukee Amateur Movie Society. ACL, were interviewed on WTMJ-TV on Bob Heiss' program, Meet Your Neighbor. They showed their equipment and trophies and discussed our hobby for the benefit of the TV viewers. With them was Martha Rosche, ACL. to tell the audience about the club's Gala Show. Colin Dyke, of Montreal, Canada, on a brief business visit to New York City, called to tell us about the handsome home theatrette he is building in the basement of his new home. He reported that he had got some extraordinary footage of the late visit to Montreal of Queen Elizabeth (then Princess) and the Duke of Edinburgh. With a platform built on top of his car and the tripod-mounted camera securely fixed thereon, he was able to follow the royal party throughout the town. Donovan E. Smith, ACL, and wife form one of two highly energetic, not to say imaginative, husband-and-wife filming teams we know of. We had the pleasure recently of seeing two of the Smith productions and one of the other couple's, whom we'll get to in a moment. Of the Smith films, one was a bit of science fiction woven in with a familiar domestic angle, the other a purely domestic situation-comedy. Fully detailed scripts are prepared, action is worked out and most of the production problems are solved before the camera comes into it at all. Members of the Bay Empire 8mm. Movie Club, at Oakland, Calif., the Smiths (we don't have to add) have been walking off with the prizes. The other team is the Lawler family in Kenosha, Wise. Timothy M., jr., ACL, and his wife Delores have recently
