Visit Visit our website This film is an episode of Jim Hawthorne’s Funny World, a short comedy series that dates to 1960. Some of these shorts were used as interstitials in early television, when live shows might not be long enough to cover an hour. The show relied on amusing stock footage clips and Hawthorne’s patented droll, gag-laced, dry narration. This one shows footage from an early silent comedy movie of a barbershop, (:50) footage of dachshunds dogs on parade, (1:16) clowns entertaining a crowd in a park by mock wrestling and other antics. At (2:06) a hill climb motorcycle race is shown followed by sped up footage of a group of people dancing the Charleston at a crazy contest (2:50).
