Flying High

An early example of the merging of silent and sound film, known as a "part-talkie", at a time when film-going audiences couldn't get enough of the new talking pictures. FLYING HIGH is part of the fourth series in a continuing film serial about The Collegians, college students who find their way in and out of adventures on campus. This short features a mishap during a flying contest in which an inexperienced pilot assumes the roll of his professional friend.
