How in the World Did Our SCM Founder Discover...

This forum is nearly identical to the previous forum. The difference? Discussions about comedy from the SOUND era.

How in the World Did Our SCM Founder Discover...

... that parts of The Silent Enemy were used as stock footage for Fatal Glass of Beer? In a Facebook conversation Frank M. Thompson asked about the source of stock footage in TFGoB. I confidently answered that it came from Yukon Jake. But Brent Walker chimed in with the nugget that Richard M. Roberts discovered that the elk stampede was from Silent Enemy. Did you just happen to watch those two in close proximity?

Yep, I have prints of both, it's pretty obvious when you see THE SILENT ENEMY.

I certainly hope Elmer had a good agent and got paid royalties!
