280 THE PROGRAM ANGLE chocolate and coconut and . . . blow it through your nose for sheer, deep-down smoking pleasure!" Somehow the sound tracks had become mixed! No one had checked at the laboratory, and if they had not been run through before air time there would have been two very disgruntled sponsors. This illustrates the great care needed in dealing with film when it is received from the library. Merely because the can says "Home on the Range," and the leader also says it, is no indication that it is "Home on the Range." The only way to be sure is to run it. Apart from this aspect, that of film condition is important. It may have been sent out without checking since the last user and may have a number of breaks in it. It may be rewound the wrong way round with the emulsion on the wrong side; it may be sound film with a double perforated leader and be rewound so that the sprocket holes in the sound film are on the wrong side with the result that as soon as the sound film commences there are no holes for the teeth to en- gage, the bottom loop on the gate is lost, and there is, of course, no sound either. Anyone of a number of things can be wrong with the film, and running it without the precaution of checking it first is asking for trouble.
