Schoolboys and girls compete in a series of contests to show their enterprise as the scientists and technologists of the future.

Paddy Feeny introduces the three teams:

The Boys and Girls of Newbridge Grammar School with - An archaeological survey by a soil-resistivity technique.

The Boys and Girls of Waterhall High School, Cardiff with - Sweet Sixteen a social survey: What is today's teenager really like?

and
The Girls of Swansea Technical School with - The science of the coracle

The judges: Professor J. H. Fremlin, Physicist, University of Birmingham; Dr. A. H. Halsey, Sociologist, Nuffield College, Oxford; Dr. J. S. Hughes Research Director, Midland Silicones Ltd.
Chairman, Dr. Tom Margerison
Projects selected from a Science Fair held at Cardiff High School for Girls and organised by the British Association for the Advancement of Science and the Sunday Times.

In Science Fair at 6.30
The second heat in this new-style contest is fought out in Cardiff where scientific projects from three schools will be considered by the judges. The girls of Swansea Technical School have chosen to apply modern tests of efficiency to the coracle-the ancient craft of the Western Celts which is still used in Wales for river-fishing. The pupils of Newbridge Grammar School have also used up-to-date methods for studying an ancient structure-this time a farmhouse whose walls they plotted underground by using the soil-resistivity technique. At Waterhall High School on the other hand they have chosen to do a social survey on that subject of burning topical interest-the habits of the teenager.
