Army Digest No. 5' brings a three-fold story to the television public: "Nike Hercules," "The Nike and The Torri," and "Hawaii - 50th State." For the first time THE BIG PICTURE shows the TV viewer the awesome destruction and power of one of America's latest defense weapons. The Nike-Hercules' fantastic accuracy is demonstrated graphically as it seeks, finds, and destroys the Army Corporal missile in flight. Many a veteran of the Pacific will welcome this episode's re-visit of Okinawa. The changes that have taken place on this important island include the replacement of our anti-aircraft sky sweeper weapons with modern missiles. As vulnerable as it is vital to our defense, Okinawa welcomes the protection it is receiving from the Nike installations on this keystone island in the Pacific. With the embracing of romantic Hawaii as the 50th State of the United States, THE BIG PICTURE takes another look at this newest addition. Long known for her carefree way of life, Hawaii has yet another distinctive characteristic--a mixture of many races and religions. Audiences will see how these separate cultures and ideals are woven into a tapestry that is distinctively Hawaiian. In her blue Pacific setting, she is truly an extension of the free soil of America.

In the years following the Civil Rights movement and the passage of Title IX in 1972, Dr. Donnis Thompson (a headstrong African-American female coach), Patsy Mink (the first Asian-American U.S. congresswoman), and Beth McLachlin (the team captain of a rag-tag female volleyball team), battle discrimination from the halls of Washington D.C. to the dusty volleyball courts of the University of Hawaii, fighting for the rights of young women to play sports.“Rise of the Wahine” is the Winner of the Hawaii International Film Festival Audience Award for Best Documentary, and is both rich in women’s history and inspiring for all who desire to transform the world around them. It is perfect for coaches to view with their teams, families to view together, high school/college classes, and for young men to grow in a deeper understanding in their hearts for the struggles of women and girls around them.Above all, the film reveals how change-makers overcome injustice with wisdom, an innovative spirit, and without becoming victims to their circumstances.Rise of the Wahine (pronounced, "wuh-hee-nay," Hawaiian for "woman"): Champions of Title IX" features Patsy Mink, Dr. Donnis Thompson, Dr. Bernice Sandler, Dave Shoji, and Gwendolyn Mink, and is narrated by Sarah Wayne Callies ("The Walking Dead," "Prison Break").

UNIVERSAL NEWSREEL, SYNOPSIS, RELEASE 37-5
ITALIAN PRESIDENT ON STATE VISIT
President Antonio Segni of Italy is welcomed to the United States as he arrives on a State Visit. The Italian President emphasized in his statements that he was seeking closer ties between a unified Europe, including Great Britain, and the United States. After conferences with President Johnson at the White House he went to President Kennedy's grave to honor the martyred leader.
STORM CLEAN-UP
From the Mid-West to the Eastern Seaboard, the winter's worst snow storm threw an icicle into the wheels of progress. As the near-blizzard blows out to sea the back-breaking job of digging out is begun. Family cars are rescued, side-walks and streets are cleared and once more traffic, trains and planes begin to move.
MRS. KENNEDY EXTENDS THANKS
In her first public statement since President Kennedy's assassination, Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy thanks the hundreds of thousands who sent her expressions of sympathy. She promises to acknowledge each one no matter how long it takes.
SNOW FASHIONS
When they hand out the Olympic Games Gold Medals these fashions look like winners. Inspired by the official Olympic travel uniforms and parade blues they dress up the slopes of Stratton Mountain in Vermont. In front of the fire later, Burlington manipulates the strings as the gals model actionwear that makes everything about skiing so delightful.
SURFBOARD CHAMPIONSHIPS
Just what the doctor ordered for those of us who are being nipped by winter's breezes. At Makaha Beach in Hawaii it's the world surfboard championships with Midget Farelly of Australia defending his title. Heavy seas push 25-foot waves and when the commotion dies it's Joe Cabell who brings the title back to the U.S.
