Way Of The Padres.

Shows the present day appearance of the country traversed by the friars of the old missions: Mt. Whitney and its mountain trails, Death Valley, Imperial Valley, and Palm Springs with its rodeo grounds and western pageantry. The municipal buildings of Los Angeles and Hollywood, the homes of the stars, the 20th Century-Fox lot, the radio studios, and Grauman's Chinese Theatre, are viewed from a blimp. In the heart of the mission country, the Rancheros Visitadores, in traditional costumes, line up for the blessing of the Franciscan friars.
