Preface
The CATALOG OF COPYRIGHT ENTRIES is published by authority of sections 210 and 211 of Title 17 of the United States Code. Section 210 provides in part: “The current catalog of copyright entries and the index volumes herein provided for shall be admitted in any court as prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein as regards any copyright registration.”
The Catalog is subdivided into parts corresponding to the classes of material listed in section 5 of Title 17 of the United States Code. The table at the end of this preface shows the organization of the Catalog, the symbols used with the registration numbers to identify the classes, and the prices of the semiannual or annual issues.
The record of each copyright registration listed in the Catalog includes a description of the work copyrighted and data relating to the copyright claim (the name of the copyright claimant as given in the application for registration, the copyright date, the copyright registration number, etc.).
For a more complete description of the contents of this issue of the Catalog see p. vii.
Information as to changes of copyright ownership is not included in the Catalog, but a search of the Copyright Office Assignments and Related Documents Indexes may be requested from the Register of Copyrights. A fee for the search and report will be estimated at the statutory rate of $5 per hour.
For each registration listed, except for renewals, there has been deposited a copy or copies of the work in accordance with the provisions contained in sections 12, 13, 14, or 215 of Title 17 of the United States Code.
Orders, payable in advance, for all parts of the Catalog of Copyright Entries should be sent to the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Orders may be placed for individual issues, as subscriptions for one or more parts, or for the complete Catalog at $50 a year, for periods of one, two, or three years. All orders should state clearly the title and the inclusive dates of the part wanted. Checks or money orders should be made payable to the Superintendent of Documents.

Organization of Parts
Each part listed in the following table records all current registrations in the class or classes indicated by the alphabetical symbols. Renewal registrations are listed separately at the end of each related part. Some parts also contain registrations made under symbols other than those listed for the particular part, if the subject matter or type of material is similar to that generally included in the part.
The first letter of the symbol is that of the class under which registration is made. Second and third letters, if any, that follow the initial letter are added by the Copyright Office for the purpose of statistical analysis. Their significance is as follows:
F Published foreign works. In the case of books and periodicals, it designates works manufactured outside the United States (except those registered for ad interim copyright). In all other classes to which it applies, it designates works first published outside the United States, the authors of which are neither citizens nor domiciliaries of the United States. (AF, EF)
I Books and periodicals registered for ad interim copyright. (AI, BI)
O Published works of foreign origin registered under the waiver-of-fee provision (section 215 of Title 17 of the United States Code). (BIO, GFO)
P Domestic published works in classes for which registration is possible for either published or unpublished works. (EP, JP)
U Unpublished works in classes for which registration is possible for either published or unpublished works. (DU, EU)

Introduction
Parts 12–13 list published and unpublished motion pictures currently registered in classes L and M, and filmstrips currently registered in classes A and J. Films for which the copyright has been renewed are listed separately in the Renewal Registrations section. The motion pictures registered include feature pictures, cartoons, industrial films, classroom films, television films, etc. Many of the recording scripts made to accompany filmstrips are registered in classes C and D and are listed in Parts 3–4: Dramas and Works Prepared for Oral Delivery.
Arrangement is by title. Each work is described in a main entry which includes information pertinent to the copyright claim. References are made from other titles associated with the films.
The Name Index to the names of claimants, producing and releasing companies, sponsors, authors, etc. given in the main entries covers both currently registered works and renewal registrations, the latter being identified by the symbol (R).
For works currently registered each main entry includes the following items of information if available and applicable:
1) Title.
2) Production statement including name of releaser.
3) Physical description, including running time or number of reels, width of film, etc.
4) Series statement.
5) Author and title of the published work on which the film is based or with which it is correlated.
6) Names of individuals or organizations contributing to the production of the film.
7) Names of principal actors and actresses, generally not more than five.
8) Names given in the application which do not appear elsewhere in the entry.
9) Application title if it varies substantially in wording from the title as it is given in the work.
10) Name of the employer in the case of a work made for hire, if so named in the application.
11) Information contained in the application which relates to the registration of an earlier version of the work.
12) Brief statement of the new matter on which copyright is claimed, preceded by the abbreviation NM, if this information is given in the application and is not indicated elsewhere in the entry.
13) Copyright symbol ©.
14) Name of the copyright claimant.
15) For published works, date of publication as given in the application; for unpublished works, the date on which the last of all the items required to complete registration (i.e., description and representative prints in the case of motion pictures—or a complete copy of the filmstrip—application, and fee) was received in the Copyright Office.
16) Registration number.
For published works, whenever it is necessary to indicate a variation between the information given in the application and in the copy of the work with respect to the claimant’s name or date of publication, the data from the application is given first, followed by the phrase, “in notice” and the data given in the work; e.g., © Richard Roe & Co.; 19Sep71 (in notice: 1970), LP39800.
Works deposited in connection with copyright registration may be selected for inclusion in the collections of the Library of Congress. Library of Congress printed cards are available for many of the published works so selected. Orders for such cards or inquiries concerning them should be addressed to the Card Division, Building No. 159, Navy Yard Annex, Washington, D.C. 20541.
For renewal registrations, the main entry includes the following items of information if available and applicable:
1) Title.
2) Length of film in reels.
3) Name of the author, which is usually the original producing company.
4) Copyright symbol ©.
5) Date of original copyright.
6) Original registration number.
7) Name of the renewal claimant followed by a statement usually abbreviated, giving the basis of the renewal claim as supplied by the applicant; e.g., “John Doe & Co. (PWH)” indicates that renewal of copyright is claimed by John Doe & Co. as proprietor of copyright in a work made for hire.
8) Date of receipt of the renewal application or fee, whichever is later.
9) Renewal registration number.
