...Seeing Eye," Mrs. Eustis told the Institute last week, grew out of a breeding station for German shepherd dogs which she established in 1923 at Fortunate Fields, her comfortable estate near Vevey, Switzerland. At first, as a hobby, Mrs. Eustis and her friend,, Geneticist Elliott S. Humphrey, bred and trained dogs to patrol the Swiss borders for the customs office and the State police.

...film is an English one, and the rest of the cast is unfamiliar to American audiences. It gives Miss Bergner most competent and sympathetic support, of which, however, she needs very little. The program is shared with "The Seeing Eye," showing how German shepherd dogs are trained to lead the blind; "Mexican Idyl," a Musical Mood in technicolor, and Fox Movietone News. And then, at 12.45 every day this week, there is to be heard the Shostakovitch Symphony No.1, recorded by the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Leopold Stokowski...
