Synopsis for the Cartoon Special Ounce Of Prevention

Bugs Bunny and friends are featured in this program about burn prevention in the home. Bugs, Daffy Duck and Sylvester demonstrate practical ways to avoid burn injuries: avoiding burns in the kitchen, preventing scalding burns in the bathtub, planning escape routes and meeting places, and getting out of the house quickly. The dangers of playing with matches and improper storage of flammable liquids indoors are illustrated. The value of smoke detectors, escape planning and crawling low in smoke, as well as the dangers of hiding under the bed or in closets during a fire, are emphasized.
