Cross Country Girl - A Slow Motion Study (1922)

We see a group of girls at the starting line for a cross country run. Some are in gym-slips, others in shorts and sports shirts. They are filmed in slow motion. The girls jump a ditch in slow motion. They climb over a gate. They run after a man - he is “the hare“. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
