THE FINEST IN THE INDUSTRY
ADVANCE INFORMATION FOR NEWSPAPER PUBLICITY AND EXPLOITATION
MARCH OF EVENTS in CONGO CRISIS:
As United Nations forces take up positions across the vast reaches of the Congo and the center of crisis shifts to rebellious Katanga province, Belgium gives a heroic welcome to the first contingents of paratroops to return. King Baudouin greets the paras at the airport, and the city hails them as they parade through.
COAST-TO-COAST VIA MOON:
In a preview of space-age global communications, scientists make a long distance telephone call from New Jersey to California by bouncing the voice signals off the moon. It's the forerunner of a similar system that will use a network of artificial satellites.
HERBERT HOOVER HONORED:
Aboard the ship named for him, former President Hoover is honored by San Francisco's business leaders just before his 86th birthday. Among those present are Senator Knowland and Fleet Admiral Nimitz.
Fashion Parade:
Italy's stylists continue their all-out campaign to launch a new look for 1961, parading an array of hats and head-pieces which indicate they'll do anything to be different.
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO
WILL ROGERS and WILEY POST are shown as they begin their flight to the Arctic which was to end in tragic death.
MUSSOLINI and KING VICTOR EMMANUEL review half a million troops in Alpine maneuvers.
PRINCE UMBERTO bids farewell to Fascist legions embarking for East Africa and the ETHIOPIAN WAR.
A royal garden party shows the BRITISH ROYAL FAMILY, 25 years ago - KING GEORGE V and QUEEN MARY, the little PRINCESS ELIZABETH, now the Queen, her father, later KING GEORGE VI, the Prince of Wales, to be KING EDWARD VIII and after his abdication the DUKE OF WINDSOR.
In California, a super-fast new plane is unveiled by HOWARD HUGHES.
