At his news conference, President John F. Kennedy urges everyone to pray more at home and attend Church more often.

TWENTY FIVE YEARS AGO:
One of the most spectacular tragedies of the air age happened just 25 years ago when the Hindenburg exploded while landing in the U.S. after a trans-Atlantic trip. The disaster spelled the end of dirigibles.
James Braddock put his title on the line and Joe Louis knocked him out to become the first African-American heavyweight since Jack Johnson. Max Schmeling had claimed he had first chance at Braddock, but a court ruled otherwise and the thousands of tickets printed for a Schmeling-Braddock fight were just so much trash.
