DRUNK DRIVING

A Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production available only to schools. "An impressive lesson stressing 'not to drink if you drive, and if you drive, not to drink.' It recounts the circumstances which lead to a tragic accident involving the lives of several persons and the ruining of a young man's career." "The characters in the drama are a young business man, his wife and mother-in-law and an old couple, innocent victims of the husband's drunken driving. A helpful study of police and courts in relation to community welfare." "Emotional pitch precludes showing below junior high school level. Composition of short subject, good photography excellent." Advisory committee
