1st Series No-Hitter! (Universal Newsreel, Oct 1956)

Description

The original release sheet reads: 1. 1st SERIES NO-HITTER! - At Yankee Stadium, baseball history is made in the 5th game of the World Series as Don Larsen retires 27 batters in succession–not a single Dodger reaches 1st base, as the Yankee hurler achieves the first World Series no-hitter, and the first World Series "perfect game." The sensational feat gives the Yankees a 3-2 edge in games over Brooklyn. 2A/B/C/D. PRINCESS MARGARET, touring the lands of the British Commonwealth, visits the island of Mauritius, where the royal visitor opens a children's orthopedic hospital, the visit of a real princess brightening the day for young patients. / NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY is shown in Philadelphia–the incredible tools and techniques that make possible the remote control craftsmanship of nuclear devices for peace-time applications in industry and science. / SPANISH D.P.'s return home from Russia, after 20 years in exile. 500 of the many Spaniards who were taken back to Russia when Red forces withdrew from Spain's Civil War in 1936 are repatriated, amid scenes of joyous, tearful reunion. / FRENCH "CARAVEL," twin-jet transport designed for the European market, is shown to the trade and public at an international air show in Holland. The high-performance craft boasts sleek lines, and unorthodox design. 3. FOOTBALL: Michigan State-Michigan - Michigan State defeats Michigan, 9-0, at Ann Arbor. The Spartans cash in on two scoring opportunities presented by the hapless Wolverines, an intercepted pass leading to a field goal, and a fumble that paves the way to a touchdown.
