Scout Rally And London’s Lord Mayor (1938)

Glasgow, Scotland. Various shots of Scouts marching across the Ibrox Stadium at a huge Boy Scout Rally. White doves are released as a message of peace. We then see the Lord Mayor of London, Sir Harry Twyford, arriving at the Empire Exhibition in Glasgow. His state coach pulls up and the mayor, with his mace, sword and wife(?), gets out. Looks like a very rainy day. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV. IT’S FULL OF GREAT DOCUMENTARIES, FASCINATING INTERVIEWS, AND CLASSIC MOVIES.
