ijij UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON,
Nov. 12—Moving pictures as a supple
&: ment to classroom and laboratory in
£: struct ion have at last won acceptance
j-:- at the University of Washington.
Ten reels on four different subjects
have been obtained from the United
States Bureau of Mines and will be
9 shown in a playhouse near the cam
Ijl pus by the college of mines in a few
I days, to illustrate safe and economic
ojerations in the mining and smelting
of iron ores and the use of explosives
in quarring.
While tl?e ‘‘movies” have been ob
tained primarily for the use of stu
dents of mining, they will be of gen
eral interest, and the, public will be
admitted to the show.
Should tlie expelrement with the
films prove successful for educational
purposes, the college of mines will ar
range to present a full series of pic
® tures showing the various phases of
m
mining copper, gold, coal, lead, zinc
I and iron; the conversion of iron ore
into pig iron and steel; the manufac
> ture of steel products; and the quar
rying of marble and granite.
The movement to enlist the moving
picture machines in the work of in
streting prospective miners was fos
tered by the government and the stu
dents themselves. The government
proposed to loan films- to the various
student societies about the country,
and the mining society at the univer
sity took the lead in putting the pro
posal into effect. The cooperation of
the campus station of the federal bu
reau of mines played an Important
part in the working out of the plan at
Washington.
