jungle would haye cost tremen-
dous sum it was decided to build
jungle to order. A site was selected
and trees and tropical foliage were
transported to the spot. Several days
were consumed in the preparation
OF the setting, which was set up
under the supervision of Rudolph
Eylek, technical expert for George
Meiford productions. The jungle was
so realistic that George Melford, the
director was badly scratched in try
ing to penetrate it, and he ordered
some of the briers removed.
