“The Holiday Hijackers!”

When Tubby asks for a promotion to full-time cameraman, his boss gives him the 'dull list', locations where good newsreel footage is impossible to obtain. While Tubby is at the zoo looking at bears lounging around, Johnny Quick agitates the air around them, causing the bears to dance. At the library Johnny spots a man trying to steal a rare book, and causes other volumes to fly off the shelves. And so on until the list is covered. All the while Tubby gets great footage. Unfortunately, he has forgotten to load an film into the camera.
