World Awaits Choice Of New Pope
Throngs fill Saint Peter's Square awaiting the puff of smoke from within the Sistine Chapel signaling the selection of the new Pope. Rare scenes from within the Sistine Chapel show the College of Cardinals as they begin their deliberations, sealed off from the outside world. The traditional signal results in confusion as an intended black "fumetti" on the first ballot emerges white causing premature rejoicing.
Renowned Cellist Pablo Casals In U.N. Concert
81-year old Pablo Casals takes part in a world-wide musical celebration of United Nations Day, ending his self-proclaimed exile from the concert world for this one occasion. Hailed as the world's greatest cellist, it's his first U.S. appearance since 1928.
Ottawa Canada Rocked By Mystery Explosion
An unexplained explosion of terrific force rocks Canada's capital city, demolishing three buildings and gutting others, in the ordinarily busy downtown section. Countless lives were saved because the blast came on a quiet Saturday, property damage estimated at over two million dollars.
College Football: Army vs. Pittsburgh
Army's unbeaten Black Knights are nearly upset by a terrific Panther rally as the University of Pittsburg, trailing by 14 points, scores at the end of the first half, and riddles Army's defense in the second half for a real gridiron thriller. Game ended in a 14-14 tie.
Race Horse First Landing In Near Photo-Finish
The world's richest horse race, at Camden New Jersey, is run in a torrential downpour. With Eddie Arcaro aboard, favored First Landing comes from behind for a sensational near-photo-finish to become the world's richest two-year-old!
British Football: Britain vs. Russia
