Killers of the Sea shows Caswell wrestling and subduing a 12-ft. bottle-nosed killer whale, a gigantic snapping sea turtle, an octopus, a sawfish and a tiger shark. There are many repetitions of the dramatic moment when, spying some deep-sea enemy, Caswell, "The Man of Steel, G-Man of the Deep," rips off his breeches and dives to the attack, knife in teeth. Audiences will guess that some energetic harpooning of the monsters has preceded Caswell's scrimmages: the fish stay on the surface to be photographed in a manner fish seldom consent to unless submergence...

Devil's Playground (Columbia) lacks novelty of background, U. S. naval deep-sea work having been used before.

This passage, first projected in 1902, would follow the Hudson as far as the Champlain Canal, thence through Lake Champlain to the Richelieu River, which would be dredged to the St. Lawrence. Behind this scheme, which would cost some $150,000,000 last week were ranged Albany civic societies and such groups...
