Campus Distractions-
(Continued from Page 2)
grinding them out in feature length
movies.
“The World In Flames” states
in its preface that it shows the
struggle of a free people against
an overwhelming destructive force.
To do this it turns at a fast clip
through newsreel shots of diplo
matic, political, and military ev
ents for each year from 1929 to
1940. It creates a sinister impres
sion of doom, always leading up
to men marching, men fighting,
men striking. It shows the steps
along the road to war. This is a
documentary propaganda film with
many musty newsreel shots which
will bring back memories of old
things which we can scarcely re
member.
