Segment two: Air vehicles, 1:40. An airplane flies in the sky. A Good Year blimp is shown barely off the ground. It gets higher and higher. A building with "ATLANTA AIRPORT" painted on the roof is in the background across a field in which a crowd of people are walking around. Men stand holding a blimp so that passengers can board it. A fin of the blimp has "DEFENDER MIAMI NC-12A" on it. The men let go as the blimp starts rising into the air. An airplane takes off from a runway. They are still holding the blimp. The blimp takes off. A woman stands talking to a man on the ground. People pose for the camera on a field. The blimp comes back down to land. It is held still while more people get on it, and some get off. Men in suits watch the whole operation. The camera shows views from the blimp, mostly fields down below. The captain eats a sandwich. People look out the window and smile for the camera. A man takes pictures of the blimp. People walk off the blimp after the ride. Segment three: Garden, 6:06. A woman walks through a beautiful garden with a pond ahead of her. She stops and picks a flower. A couple comes up behind her and run up to hug her.

It is blowing down out of the air everywhere. Police on motorcycles are followed by horses which are followed by a band. There are people marching in the parade and old cars as well. A banner says "WELCOME BOBBY JONES." Men in uniforms march. There is an old fire truck. Another banner advertises for Bobby Jones. Most of the vehicles and floats have a banner welcoming Bobby Jones. Some of the organizations include the Women's Association, Atlanta Coach Co., and the Georgia Power Company. Many African American citizens walk together as an association as well.
