SWITCH TO SQUIRT Never An After-Thirst J t "V ‘Homegrown’ Movie Pleases Audience (Continued from page 1) ly attracted to the attention of the viewer of the film. Unlike the conventional films, the love angle is strictly second ary. The high points, photograph ically speaking, are the towering golden rods waving in the sun, the glimpses of wildlife in the hayfield and on the sandhills lakes. The camera studies a civet cat perched in a tree, a water snake slithering along the sandy show? of the Elkhorn and, finally, into the water. Mack (the dog) steals a few scenes and the view er almost smells the newly mown hay and the branding iron. The emphasis continually is on the wholesome life of the sandhills 4-H’er, including the competitive showing and sell ing at the Tri-County fair at Stuart. The bluegrass and haying se quences, alone, are worthy docu mentary stories. There is original music includ ing “The Song of the West,” “The Tune of the Whittier” and “John ny Hayseed.” The entire cast includes Skopec neighbors plus familiar faces of Stuart and Atkinson businessmen and the host of 4-Hers who are incorporated in activity scenes. Mr. Skopec won’t say but it’s a fair guess the versatile farmer rancher has several thousand dol lars tied up in the production. He’s very modest about the whole effort. “Let’s give those folks credit who have gone along with us— the neighbors and friends for their goodwill; bankers, law yers and townspeople who have contributed time and talent. Except for them we wouldn’t have a film,” explains Mr. Sko pec. About the agricultural scenes he says: “They are a part of our living prairie. We try to show them as we see them.” Oh yes, the love story. Dick and Caroline have just taken part in the hay days pa rade. Mack is along. They pur chase hamburgers at a stand and go hand-in-hand up Atkinson’s Main street. The dog snitches the last bite of the sandwich from Caroline’s hand about the time Dick sug gests fixing up the dilapidated Whittier ranch house. The proposal is that subtle and is accepted on the same basis. That climaxes “The New Fron tier.” Farley-Tushla post of the Am erican Legion sponsored the pre miere showing. Mr. Skopec is planning other showings throughout, the area. All that is necessary is a room, a sponsor and an invitation. niun'Summ J, OUR FAMILY FOODS/ Thurs. - Fri. - Sat. & Mon.
