Supervising Women Workers (1944)


Factory foreman Joe sits down with his boss for a talk about how to handle the "problem" of female workers, after Joe admits "women scare me." (?!) Joe learns that women are "not naturally familiar with mechanical principles", that they must have everything explained down to the last detail, that they are naturally jealous, and that Joe should never "mix business with pleasure", though that last statement goes unexplained. An interesting document of gender relations in the new WWII co-ed factories. Producer: Kerkow (Herbert) Productions Sponsor: US Office of Education

The First Television Remote Control! (1961)


The Remote Control used to be more complicated than setting the clock on your microwave. It's no wonder that the word "couch potato" is a recent term and not an old adage. People before the 1950s actually watched TV without a remote, as I'm sure all of your elders have told you about already. That means no channel surfing, no immobility for hours, no perfect modern-day relaxation/fattening and, most importantly, no DVRs. Instead, they had to sit up close to the TV to manually push buttons to change the channels or lower the volume. That, or walk back and forth from their seat. It's a real toss up on which one's worse. So, you can imagine the great fanfare that came with the invention of the remote control. In all its black and white glory, the video on the right exhibits the grandeur of the 500 pound-looking remote control meant to make life so much easier. See the brick for yourself at 0:49, complete with awesome narration. The amount of programming and complication that went with these early TVs is amazing. It's great when technology actually scales back and makes things simpler to move forward. When I get home, I'm going to hug my remote. Producer: Handy (Jam) Organization Sponsor: RCA Victor

Trippy 1970s Educational Film: "Safety: In Danger Out of Doors"


Because "Safety: Harm Hides at Home" needed a sequel! After spending more than 1/4 of the movie rehashing who Guardiana is, (and it's a good rehash!) we find out how she is saving little kids this time... outdoors! Pure 70's mixture of preachiness and "groovy" marketing to kids. So bad it is excellent.
