Summary:
Compilation reel of home movies from 1967-1968. Begins with a family cookout at the Ed Feil home. The children mill about and play in the yard and the neighbor's yard as Vicki grills hot dogs.
Spring 1968 (?): Eddie and a friend play outside while wearing coats. The camera follows Kenny as he toddles about.
June 1968: Naomi and the boys visit a duck pond ; a group of children, including Eddie, Kenny, and Beth play on a swing set and in a kiddie pool in the yard ; A card shows the date as June 19, 1968. The occasion is another family cookout in the Ed Feil yard, this time as a celebration for Nellie's birthday.
Beth and other teenagers perform a German folk dance while wearing traditional costumes. The setting looks like the performance is taking place inside of a high school. Other teens in the background are wearing costumes representing other countries. Students in togas then participate in some sort of game. A crowed of other students and parents watch, including Naomi and Kenny.

Summary:
Home movie showing a Halloween party for Eddie, Kenny, and friends. Children wearing costumes play games in the living room at the Ed Feil home. The children then enjoy cider, popcorn balls, and candy at the dining room table. The film then shows a party for Maren Feil's 40th birthday (November 1970). Maren unwraps presents in front of a large group of friends and family and blows out candles on a birthday cake.
Home movie footage taken while driving through Washington DC. Includes brief shots of landmarks from afar, including the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial. The film shows aerial views of the capital taken from an airplane window on the trip home. Back in Cleveland, the film shows Naomi backing out of the Feil's driveway.
Brief home movie that focuses on Vicki riding the monorail on a visit to Expo 67 in Montreal. The group passes the Pavilion of Judaism, Kaleidoscope building, and the Pulp and Paper pavilion.

Summary:
Home movie of a party celebrating George H. Feil's 2nd birthday at the Harold Feil. Shows George walking with the assistance of his father (also named George). Naomi is holding a newborn Eddie. Leslie opens gifts for baby George while his sisters and cousins look on.

Summary:
Shows a clip of Beth bouncing a ball down the front walk. This clip is used in "Where Life Still Means Living". This is followed by a brief clip of residents at Montefiore. Ends with Beth napping in the car as Naomi and Vicki stand outside.

Summary:
Begins with footage of Kenny riding a horse while wearing a Weehawkin Day Camp shirt. Then shows Eddie’s birthday party at the Feil home. He and his friends eat at the kitchen table. Finally, the film documents Ed and Naomi's trip to the Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, New York. Both ride bikes through the town center, Naomi reading in a public park, and a visit to Chautauqua Lake.
Dark home movie footage of the neon lights of Disneyland’s attractions and shops as seen at nighttime. Many of these views are taken from the vantage point of the park's Skyway. The film also shows the interior of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, Adventure Thru Inner Space, and the spinning teacup ride. A performance at the Sound Castle shows musicians and people dancing. Ends with brief footage of a demonstration at a medical conference featuring the Feil film “Closed Cuff Method of Gowning and Gloving”.
The desert plains of central Idaho bore silent witness to many events in history – the coming of the Oregon Trail, the wars between the whites and the Indians, the events of the Old West, Today they are witnessing a change that is far more important – the coming of atomic power. On the lava plains of central Idaho is the National Reactor Testing Station, famous for “firsts” in nuclear energy. Here electricity was first generated from atomic energy and atomic power first was used to light a town. Principles of nuclear submarine propulsion were worked out in “a ship on the desert” in Idaho. “Challenge” visits the National Reactor Testing Station to look at a power plant of the future, a reactor that makes more nuclear fuel than it consumes. The principle is not perpetual motion. This reactor takes the part of uranium that is not fissionable fuel (more than 99 per cent of the total) and converts it into plutonium, a man made element that is a good nuclear fuel. Because the reactor “breeds” plutonium it is called a “breeder” reactor – Experimental Breeder Reactor-II. How this breeding is accomplished, and how fuel for EBR-II is fabricated by remote control, is explained in this program.
Precision and perfection are the watchwords of today’s Space and Atomic Age. Nothing can be overlooked everything must be checked and rechecked before the “go” signal can be given. A crack in a missile’s fuel line, invisible to the human eye, can be disastrous. A defect in an atomic reactor, while not disastrous, can mean costly and time-consuming repairs. This program examines “non-destructive testing”, a new-comer, yet one of the most important engineering techniques. Non-destructive testing is simply a method of examining an object for defects without destroying it in the process. It is unlike other testing methods such as automobile test, for example, in which the vehicle is pushed to its maximum performance before it ends up on the junk pile. The television cameras are at the Metallurgy Division of the United States Atomic Energy Commission’s Argonne National Laboratory, where scientists are using such non-destructive testing techniques as X-rays, gamma rays, and neutron radiography. At Argonne, neutronradiography is an invaluable aid to pinpoint what happens to uranium or plutonium fuel that sustains a chain reaction in an atomic reactor. The knowledge gained through this technique is important in designing the atomic power plants of today and tomorrow. Also shown are the ultrasonic testing methods used to detect imperfections by “bouncing” sound waves through objects that are being tested. One of these methods converts sound waves into electronic signals to show television pictures of hidden defects. The value of these non-destructive testing methods becomes increasingly more important as the tolerances become smaller and smaller for the new atomic reactors, space vehicles, and aircraft engines that are being constructed.
Home movie documenting the family visiting the newly constructed CN Tower in Toronto. Shows the surrounding railways and storefronts inside the tower. Back in Cleveland, the film captures a brief shot of Naomi and Kenny in the kitchen followed by Beth at a skating rink. Ends with a kinescope recording of a western TV show.
