hardly in the category of conservation, this film helps to promote 

 an understanding of Alaskan life and people. 



The vastness of the area concerned, strikingly photographed, 

 emphasizes the film's point. An original music score is effective in 

 creating the suitable mood without distraction. Recommended not 

 only for its information value, but for particular interests of students 

 of sociology.

MAN OF ACTION 



Color Sound; Animation Association Films, Inc. 



13 minutes Rental 



This bright animation details the need for slum clearance and 

 city planning. The role of the individual is particularly emphasized 

 as one citizen, realizing the immediacy of the situation, brings slum 

 clearance to the attention of the proper authorities and follows 

 through with personal action. Although the film is humorous in 

 nature it makes its points effectively. The introduction of Satan as 

 the villain of the piece may seem slightly far-fetched, but as is 

 pointed out, there is a very real devil concerned apathy.

MARSHLAND IS NOT WASTELAND 



Color Sound Roy Wilcox Productions 



14 minutes Inquire 



This unusually beautiful film explodes the myth that marshes 

 are wastes and must be "developed" as home or industrial sites to 

 be economically important. Our coastal marshes are actually ex- 

 tremely valuable as food-producing areas and nursery grounds for 

 mollusks and certain commercially important fishes as well as nest- 

 ing and feeding areas for various sea birds and migratory game birds. 



When garbage trucks followed by bulldozers enter the marsh- 

 lands, the waters are polluted, spawning grounds are lost, and even- 

 tually the fisherman's yield is greatly reduced or even eliminated. 

 The economic and esthetic value of marshes is carefully spelled 

 out so that no one may misunderstand.
