1959 IN REVIEW
A year of unprecedented travel, ceremonies and consultations by the great power leaders, with the outstanding highlights being Vice-President Nixon's visit to Russia and debate with Premier Khrushchev, Khrushchev's fabulous, flamboyant tour of America, and President Eisenhower's historic and unprecedented tour of 11 Free World Nations.
The exploration of Space proceeded with notable achievements by both the Soviet and the United States, the Reds reaching the moon for the first time, and giving mankind its first glimpse of the other side, and America making major strides in preparing for man's first actual voyage into space.
In this hemisphere, Cuba's first year under the reign of Fidel Castro and the opening of the Canadian-U.S. St. Lawrence Seaway in joint ceremonies by Ike and Queen Elizabeth topped the news. Hawaii followed Alaska into the Union, with exultant celebrations throughout the Islands to mark the dream fulfilled.
Romance made news, with the same fairy tale theme thrice repeated. Prince Akihito of Japan married a pretty commoner, Mishiko Shoda; multi-millionaire's son Stephen Rockefeller wed a former family maid, Anne Marie Rasmussen, and the Shah of Iran married a former bobby-soxer, Farah Diba.
Japan was ravaged by the worst typhoon in its history, with a toll of 5,000 lives. John Foster Dulles passed away after a long and valiant fight against cancer.
In Asia, Communist China manifested growing aggressiveness, turning Tibet into a bloody repetition of Hungary. The Dalai Lama and thousands of his subjects fled to India, which later in the year was embroiled in armed clashes with Red China over border disputes. In Southeast Asia, Red puppet forces menaced the tiny but strategic state of Laos. Grave omens for the future from the rapidly mobilizing masses of mainland China, a dark undercurrent to the mood of hope with which Ike's (illegible text)

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.

SNOW FASHIONS

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.

UNIVERSAL-INTERNATIONAL NEWSREEL SYNOPSIS ISSUE #51, ED HERLIHY Announcing
THE FINEST IN THE INDUSTRY
ADVANCE INFORMATION FOR NEWSPAPER PUBLICITY AND EXPLOITATION
TWIN SATELLITES IN PIGGYBACK LAUNCHING:
At Cape Canaveral, another historic space test. Two satellites mounted piggyback fashion are carried aloft by a single Thor-Able-Star rocket. Only the second shot of this model, it places both new moons into precise orbits.
ALOHA IKE!
Ike arrives in Hawaii, and receives a warm ALOHA! After triumphal airport greetings, and a procession through Honolulu, he stops over for a few days of rest and golfing recreation after the rigors of his Far Eastern tour.
JAPAN HONORS MacARTHUR:
In New York, Japan's Consul General presents General Douglas MacArthur with the highest award the country can give a foreigner who is not a Chief of State, the Cordon of the Order of the Rising Sun.
THREE WHEEL CAR RIDE:
Automotive engineers drive a stock U.S. car from Chicago to Detroit with one wheel missing, a dramatic test of the new unit body construction that has cops in three states gasping.
MONKEY BUSINESS WITH MAMA TIGER:
In Italy, Zoo capers - Mrs. Tiger in a snarling rage while her cub cavorts with some human playmates, and an irreverent monk who mocks the distraught mother and plays a tricky game of tag with an unwary watchdog.
Fashion Parade:
In Rotterdam's unique 300-foot high Euromast restaurant, a parade of international high fashion by lovely models now touring the continent with a collection by 11 top designers. Stunning setting, chic lines, and glamorous girls.
CANOE SLALOM:
White water daredevils in a Canoe Slalom, with a rugged, sadistic course marked out by poles in a surging, tricky stream to make even more hair-rising the ordeal of powerful currents and savage rapids.
