ASK DAVE YOUR QUESTION I don't know what other schools did during lunch on rainy days, but at Betsy Ross we went into the cafeteria and watched movies. There was one movie that I absolutely loved, but I don't remember the name. It was narrated by Jiminy Cricket, he sang the "Encyclopedia Song" and talked about different types of music. I also remember that there were some cavemen that were used as "drums" -- one of them had a huge belly and made a very deep sound. Does any of this ring a bell? - Nonnie, 40, Culver City, CA DAVE'S ANSWER I think you may be confusing a couple of films. “Encyclopedia” was a series of short educational films starring Jiminy Cricket that first aired on “The Mickey Mouse Club” in the mid-1950s. “Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom” was a cartoon showing the evolution of musical instruments beginning with the cave dwellers.
