tion al the Salt Lake theater all Of
next week.
This wonderfully graphic and compre
hensivc cincmatograph record of Eng
land S immortal hero. Captain Robert
Falcon Scott, and his little band of in
trepid south pole explorers, has been
unanimously pronounced the greatest
pictorial chronology of any polar expe-
dition IN history and It's educational
value incalcula BILE. Over $4,000 feet OF
Slim, together with some 1000 photo
graphic plates of scenes and life in the
nttermost southland of the Midnight
Sun, were brought back TO civilization.
The accuracy OF the all-conquering cine
mstograph is but glowing tribute to
the wonderful genius of Herbert G..
Pointing, f. Il. &. =, official camera ar
tist Of the expedition, whom it may be
stated was British war correspondent
of wide experience.
His newspaper training fitted him ad-
mlrably for the eXigencIes OF the occa-
sion and enabled him 10 film only the
most striking scenes and incidents en-"
countercd. The first film he obtained
was that of the sturdy little Nova
Terra the vessel on which the party
sailed from New Zealand, braving a
storm at sea The waves accurately
measured) were fifty feet in height,
which height has never before nor
since been legItimately recorded.
The soul-shOcliing nature of this aw-
ful storm may be imagined from the
film. but the real tragedy of it must
be told by the crew.
THE sea was dreadful 10 the last
degree the ship was sinking fast and
the pumps had become clogged with
debris from the enginc-room. We were
resigned TO our fate. when one of ma
ture S noblemen volunteered to strip
and dive into that frigid water TO clean
the pipes. Once twice, thrice, he dived
and so on until he had gone down nine
times, then the good Lord came to his
rescue and he accomplished the almost
miraculous He saved the crew from
perishing.
Other films are no less thrilling; one
depicts school of ferocious killer
whales attacking seals on the ice. These
vicious wolves OF the sea actually
line up under the ice and through CON
certed action heave upwards. thereby
fraciuring it for hundreds of yards and
precipitatipg the helpless seals into
their power. II was just such an oc-
easion as this that came near costing
Mr.. Pointing his life. but that is an
other story.
