- Description
- Episode Description
- Each year the Circus World Museum loads its famous collection of circus wagons onto a train for its annual trip to Milwaukee for the Fourth of July Circus Parade. The episode opens at the museum where we watch men and animals load the circus wagons on the train for the trip. John Herriott, animal trainer and circus manager, explains the loading and how it compares to the circus trains of years ago. The film follows the train on its way to Milwaukee and we see the crew unload the wagons and move them onto the circus grounds. The circus lot is busy with performers and crew members who are preparing for the parade, which follows in the remaining minutes of the film.

- Series Description
- Whats New is a childrens series that ran from 1961-1973. The early seasons typically consist of multiple segments, each from an ongoing series on a specific topic. Each segment was produced by a separate educational broadcasting station, and the linkage between the segments was produced by WHYY and hosted by Al Binford. In episodes from later seasons the format varies more, with many episodes focusing on one story or topic throughout the entire 30 minutes. (Description adapted from documents in the NET Microfiche)
