Portrays the role of developmental genetics in dealing with ways phenotypes come into being through the action of genes. Presents a complete discussion of the Creeper domestic fowl--its genetic basis, morphology, embryological history, and the experimental work that led to an understanding of how this gene affects early development to produce the morphological features seen as the outcome of the developmental process. Lecture given by Dr. L. C. Dunn.
Describes the ways in which genes produce phenotypic differences by acting very early in embryonic development. Shows that this action may take place at a distance through chemical messengers (pituitary dwarfism in the house mouse, lethal giant larva in Drosophila), or it may involve tissue induction systems (Brachyury and taillessness in the house mouse). Discusses the development of eye color in Drosophila as a model of how each of the steps in a chain of chemical processes leading to development is under genic control. Lecture given by Dr. L. C. Dunn.
Follows a car thief, played by an actor, as he steals cars and offers recommendations to the spectator on how to protect their car. Includes footage of various people looking through documents, reenactments of cars being stolen and owners being upset when they realize what's happened, the process of car owner alerting police to theft, being interviewed by police, and police searching for the car; car being broken apart at chop shop; tips on what car owners can do to reduce the chances that their car will be stolen; women looking at microfilm machines; shot in and around Indianapolis; ends with car their behind bars.

Technique of drilling and tapping blind holes in cast steel on a radial drill. A drill jig with loose bushings is used for locating the holes. Setting up the work on the table of the machine, setting the jig on the piece to the layout lines. Calculating the size of the tap drill and the method used when setting the machine to drill a number of holes to the same depth. A wizard drill chuck is used in the drilling operation, and a standard friction chuck for holding the tap. The action of a tap in a hole is shown in animation and the reason why a tap binds in the hole and must be reversed frequently when tapping in tough metals.
Shows the response of today's Egyptians to new ideas of progress and change amidst a way of life unchanged for centuries. Discusses methods of agriculture, the importance of the Nile River, developments in education, the place of women in society, the racial structure of Egyptian society, the marketplace, and the traditional rural village.
Shows a family and its household slaves engaged in their early morning tasks. Depicts the work involved in maintaining the home and reveals lack of many conveniences. Dramatizes the relationships that existed among the master of the household, his family, and his slaves.
Develops concepts of electrical pressure, current, and resistance, and establishes the need for the measurement of electricity. Demonstrates the measurement of electrical pressure and current flow, shows the development and use of Ohm's law in calculating electrical relationships, and discusses the importance of fuses as a safety measure.
Discusses a well-known system for practicing pronunciation: articulation of consonants and enunciation of vowels. Emphasizes again more "parts" which are to be applied to "wholes." Shows how sounds are associated with a color code: blue for voiceless, red for voiced, and brown for nasal manner of articulation. Illustrates an early lesson at the "Presentation Stage" and introduces specific touch positions for color work.
Discusses shaping the pronunciation of vowels and consonants. Depicts the teacher helping the pupil combine voiced and nasal consonants with long vowels. Also presents more difficult sound combinations, including short vowels.
Demonstrates one pupil's accomplishment of the early goals of color work: pronunciation of vowel and consonant combinations. Depicts a pupil producing the majority of speech sounds on request, and imitating (shaping) some complex sounds: "SH", "R", "L", and "S". Discusses the application of "part" learning to the pronunciation of a new word, "talent," which the pupil sees in print.
Explains the contents of the Essentials of Good Speech. Discusses duration as an aspect of voice production and how it refers to the length of sound. Illustrates a lesson on duration at the "Presentation Stage" of Face A of the Speech Model. Shows the pupil learning a "part" (Duration) which will later be applied to a "whole" (word or words).
