McRobbie-Gair Family Home Movies Collection: This home movie captures part of a visit that Chancellor McRobbie’s parents, Alexander and Joyce McRobbie (Joyce was the older daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gair), took to the United Kingdom in 1954 with Michael and his younger sister Pamela, then young children. This home movie was not shot by Mr. Gair but some sequences were likely shot by Mr. McRobbie. Most of the movie is shot in Wales at a holiday resort called Tan-y-Bryn in Colway Bay, Wales, a favorite destination in Wales for the Gair family.
Other locations include Sydney, Australia, with shots of the Sydney Harbor Bridge, Saint Mary’s Cathedral, Martin Place via Macquarie St. (shot taken approximately 3 blocks away on Castlereagh St.).There is extensive footage of flower beds and landscape vistas. Footage consists of a combination of color and black and white film stock with title cards for new locations or sites.
McRobbie-Gair Family Home Movies Collection: This home movie contains mainly footage of a large military parade in Melbourne, Australia. It is most likely of an ANZAC day parade. ANZAC day is one of the major public holidays in Australia and is held annually on April 25. It commemorates the first landings of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) at Gallipoli, Turkey, on April 25, 1915. The year of this particular parade is not yet clear though it is probably in the early 40s. But the footage of the event is particularly important as it features shots of numerous senior Australian politicians and military officers, including former Australian Prime Ministers, William Hughes and John Curtin. There is additional footage of other military parades and school sporting events very typical of the time.
Hardin, Boniface, 1933-2012, Schilling, Jane Edward, 1930-2017, Doyle, Pat
Summary:
Father Boniface Hardin hosts a discussion with Sister Jane and Pat Doyle on the Battle of the Crater and the 13th Amendment. Fr. Hardin begins by describing a recent visit to the Battle of the Crater site and gives the history of the event. The group discusses their thoughts on it before moving into a discussion of the ratification of the 13th Amendment. They discuss its negative reception in Indiana, as well as reactions from Black people at the time including Moses Broyles.
Dr. Gould and Dr. Odishaw discuss the idea of the IGY. They trace the idea from the suggestions that was a Third International Polar Year (1882-83, 1932-33) through its expansion into the largest international scientific effort in the history of the world. They present general observations on the geographic and scientific “unknowns” in Antarctica and some of the larger questions to which the IGY hopes to find answers in its exploration of this continent.
Uses film sequences of the second Byrd expedition, 1933-34, and recent film footage to show how technological advances have improved the work of the scientist. Explains how Antarctica scientists face problems and make adjustments unknown elsewhere in the world. Compares the two expeditions in transportation, building construction, living conditions, equipment, and food. Features Dr. Laurence M. Gould.

Describes the culture of the people and the unusual climate of northern Norway. Explains that the northern third of the country is within the Arctic Circle but that the climate is much modified by the Gulf Stream. Depicts the splitting of the country into two distinct climates by a central mountain range. Views many of the geographic features peculiar to Norway.
Shows the simple forms of plant life that appear upon retreat of the glaciers and the role of these plants in preparing the earth's surface for other plant and animal life. "Forests" of the high Arctic are shown to be only inches high though many years old. The struggle for life existing among plant forms and animal forms in this harsh environment is depicted as the variety of species in the region are surveyed.
Describes Marian Anderson's early life as a struggling young singer, and presents her as a concert artist singing Schubert's "Ave Maria" and several Negro spirituals.
Sally Lied documents her time as a VISTA in Newnan, Georgia in a verbal diary format. The recordings take place over her first week with the program. She discusses the goal of the work, the family she stayed with, their material conditions, other members of her VISTA group and her experience in sessions with them, as well as her day to day activities while a participant in VISTA (going to the movies, going out for dinner, taking the bus, etc.). The recording is segmented by the day that Lied recorded, then further segmented by the day that she is recalling, since often she would skip several days then catch up all at once. Additionally, any noteworthy moments were segmented by topic.
For a more thorough reflection and analysis of her time as a VISTA where she dissects racial tension and class issues, please review "Sally Lied - Experiences in Vista, March 4, 1969 (1:40:06)."
