Politicians and members of the public are shown reacting to the news. The voiceover describes the various ways that the campaign will be led, including the use of realist film. A montage of large groups of men and women performing acrobatics and aerobics in a stadium is seen. The narrator introduces Dr G. C. Anderson, medical secretary of the BMA, who says that one of the most important aspects of general health is the wellbeing of the eyes.
