Treasure in Malta

Some time in 1963, in Berkeley California, my mother took me to the Berkeley Theater (which I don't believe exists anymore) to see a film that I remember was in Black and White. I was only 6 years old. International Movie Data Base says that it was in color, and a serial of 6 episodes. I remember such a film in black and white (and I believe at that time even if a film was in color, their might be prints of it sent to theaters in black and white. Also I saw it with my mother in one complete episode as I remember.

Some remembrances of the film were that the bad guys are chasing after some kids in an airplane hangar, and the kids push the steps away so the bad guys can't chase them very well. I also remember ((from my late mother) that the kids near the end parachuted over Malta.

From research that I did, from looking at International Movie Data Base and inquiries on the British Film Institute, I believe that this film was part of the Children's Film Fund. I recently sent an e-Mail inquiry to the British Film Institute, and they kindly responded and wrote, that the above was probably the film. Though I did not feel entirely it was a definite answer.

If anyone else happens to read this review, and from some of my descriptions can acknowledge this was the title, or know of another film, It would be greatly appreciated. Write in the Message Boards, which I have not used because of the information that is required, or put it in the review section. It would be greatly appreciated.
