The item is an industrial film on a black and white workprint. It show the construction of a 100-mile power line from Cheekye to Powell River to supply the needs of the pulp and paper industry. It also shows surveying and construction of line, switching and substations.

Newsreel footage. Footage for two newsreel stories. (1) An overview of the Powell River Company's operations, with footage of a self-dumping log barge, booming grounds, sawmill and paper mill scenes, and the ship "Powell River" being loaded. (2) Hungarian forestry students visit an industrial facility [perhaps the Powell River plant?], where they attend lectures and do field work in the forest, surveying and collecting plant samples. The students' recreational activities are also shown. These are probably students from the Sopron Division of the Faculty of Forestry at the University of British Columbia, a distinguished forestry school which was "adopted" (in part) by UBC in the wake of the Hungarian Revolution.

Newsreel footage. Newsreel actuality footage of the pulp logging, log booming and paper-making operations of the Powell River Company, especially its Powell River plant.
