First story profiles the controversy dealing with the Hollywood production of the 20th Century motion picture, "Tora, Tora, Tora," which has used US service men as actors for gratis shooting scenes on the US aircraft carrier Yorktown anchored in San Diego California.

Darryl Zanuck is interviewed, as well as Secretary of Defense, Clark Clifford, and Jack Valenti, president of the motion picture association.

The second story relates to the Cleo Awards(9th annual) which gives best trophies to television commercials. Many of the top nominated spots and winning spots are played, including Virginia Slims Cigarettes.

Third profile is a report by Mike Wallace who takes a crew to Canada and focuses on four young men now living in Ontario. Each discuss the reasons why they left the US, their feelings on Vietnam and American policies, and their new way of life. Also interviewed is a university of Waterloo professor, Robert Lambert who aids draft resisters and military deserters in adjusting to their new lives.
