Bill Tascher aims a rifle toward the camera in a parody of "Beau Geste." This is one of three locations, a set piece built for the 1915 Balboa Park Panama-California International exposition, the Indian Village or Pueblo razed in 1946. Tascher's fraternity, Sigma Lambda, sponsored the only three showings of the film, at San Diego State College in 1940.
