X is a 1953 film directed by John Ford, featuring Clark
Gable and Grace Kelly. They encounter gorillas while
on a safari in the film. A party travelling down the
Anawhata once discovered that the cry 'X' could be
produced with great volume and had very satisfactory
resonant qualities. It became a club call, of greeting or
when making contact on a tramp, for many years. In
India, we know this name better as that of a power-
hungry movie villain. What?

other received it first, and that both rejected any
possibility of sharing it
