When the Waltons teach sign language to an abandoned deaf girl, the love created by their concern reunites the child with her family.

John Walton is asked to negotiate a professional baseball contract for a teenage orphan boy who pays a return visit to the Waltons, the only family he has ever known.

Mary hires Murray’s daughter for a part-time job in the newsroom—and winds up regretting it.

The Walton family is so proud of the eldest son, John-Boy, graduating from high school, that everyone sacrifices to buy him a new suit for the commencement ceremony. But when the family cow dies, John-Boy returns his new suit for the cash to buy another cow.

The Walton children learn that it is not easy having their mother as a substitute teacher, and John-Boy rediscovers a former girlfriend.
