SummaryCaption: "The Hotel St. George, Brooklyn, became a movie studio for an hour yesterday when Mrs. Matilda Burling, president of the Gold Stars Mothers of America, 'Red' Barber, and Sgt. Tommy Kelly, Brooklyn Medal of Honor man, told the world about the Brooklyn War Memorial as cameraman Edgar B. Hatrick, Jr. and sound technician Jim McKeon took it down in celluloid. The sound film was donated to the Brooklyn War Memorial campaign by Brooklyn motion picture chains and will be shown in all Brooklyn theaters."
