    Join The Circus?

    Breezy Bear may have no trouble getting into the circus because today it's free entrance for children. But his pop, Windy Bear, is another matter. He tries to get in by taking the place of the juggling bear, but soon discovers that while showing up is half the job, you have to do the rest of it too.

    If this had been made for television that year, it would have been pretty good. This was a theatrical cartoon, however, and shows the impoverishment that was going on. Aerwork had been severely simplified to cut down on costs, both in character design and background work; and if this is fully animated, it still shows signs that the articulation that earlier cartoons had used was no longer in use.

    Still, it's amusing in terms of scripts.
