(read me) Information: 1963 6 min BW (SILENT) Show All Newsreels 1960s Titles Newsreels: 1963 - April 11 United States Submarine 'Thresher' Lost At Sea With All Hands, Nation Mourns “I conclude with great regret and sadness that the submarine Thresher is lost” – with those words Admiral George Anderson, chief of Naval operations mounted an epitaph for 129 men aboard the nuclear craft. After an overhaul the Thresher, fastest and deepest diving of all submarines, was on a test dive in 8,400 feet of water, 200 miles east of Boston, accompanied by the tender Skylark. Presumably the Thresher rests on the ocean’s bottom. Her fate recalls a happier one – that of the Squalus in 1939. With a diving bell the Navy was able to rescue the 33 men who were still alive. United States Gregory Peck Wins Best Actor Oscar At Academy Awards The most glamorous night in glamorous Hollywood draws a glittering crowd – the 35th annual Academy Awards. There’s an air of electrified anticipation among the stars, including Angie Dickinson, Gregory Peck’s new leading lady in “Captain Newman, M.D.” The awards go to Ed Begley, Patty Duke, Anne Bancroft and Gregory Peck – with the crowd giving an ovation to Mr. Peck, an extremely popular figure in movie circles who had been nominated before only to lose out. His performance in “To Kill a Mockingbird” however, shoots him to the top of the “Oscar” heap. The picture in which he starred also won two other awards. --Contemporary Royalty Free Stock Footage Library: --Business ---- Celebrations ---- Concepts ---- Education ---- Generations ---- Health and Medical ---- Lifestyles --Modern Military ---- Nature Scenic ---- Nature Wildlife ---- Environmental Education ---- On Location ---- Sports Today --U.S. Presidents ---- Weather Watch ---- Contemporary Tragedies And Disasters ---- Motion Graphics - Special Effects --Historical Public Domain Stock Footage Library: --Historic Military And Nuclear Films ---- Newsreels: Events At Home And Around The World ---- Flashback In Time --NASA Space Exploration ---- Classic Cartoons ---- Christmas Programming ---- Religious Programming --Hollywood Films, Television And Trailers ---- Classic Cuts: Single Clip Downloads --Buyout Footage Company Links: --Buyout Footage Homepage ---- About Buyout Footage ---- Stock Footage License Info ---- Submitting Footage To Us --Buyout Footage Site Search ---- Buyout Footage Sitemap ---- Buyout Footage Return Policy --Email Us - Stock Footage Request
