Compares a hungry, active rat with a satiated, inactive rat. The hungry animal learns to get food by pressing a bar, while the satiated animal goes to sleep. To demonstrate that failure to learn is due to lack of motivation, a mild electric shock is supplied and the satiated animal becomes active and learns to strike a lever which turns off the shock. Shows the animal also learning to rotate a wheel, bite a rubber tube, and strike another animal to avoid electric shock.

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.
Shows how one small Turkish village profits by the acquisition of a tractor imported through the Marshall Plan, and benefits from mechanical training provided young farmers as part of Turkey's recovery program.
Shows how some of the crystals in limestone caves are formed and then pictures by time-lapse cinephotomicrography the crystallization of the commonplace substances and chemicals.

Presents the hypothesis that chiasmata represent physical evidence of crossingover. This would mean that crossingover takes place at a four-strand rather than a two-strand stage. Genetic proof for this is presented from studies with Neurospora, described in detail, and prefaced by a description of the life cycle and meiotic divisions of this organism. Discusses the normality of chiasmata, and hence crossingover, and pictures cytological evidence of crossingover. Lecture by Dr. G. W. Beadle.
Presents the importance of farming and farm life in Indiana and shows how mechanized methods have improved products and brought better economic conditions to the farmers. Explains what the Farm Bureau Cooperative Association is and how it has helped the farmers. Uses views of the Indiana State Fair to indicate that the farmer is the center of focus there.
