Good Badminton (1934)

This Vitaphone short has Hugh Herbert tossing in some comedy lines while Walter Pidgeon relates the history of the new-fad (in 1936) game of Badminton. Ace badminton players Bill Hurley and George F. (Jess) Willard, not to be confused with boxer Jess Willard, play the fast-and-furious game.
