Hawaii Volcano in New Eruptions (Universal Newsreel, Nov 1959)

Description

The original release sheet reads: 1. HAWAII VOLCANO IN NEW ERUPTIONS - The spectacular series of eruptions of Hawaii's Kilauea goes into a violent new phase, commenced by a sport of lava 1,000 feet high that showers tourist planes overhead with rocks. As an unending river of fire pours forth, volcanologists say Kilaueau is at its most violent ever, and "completely unpredictable." 2A/B/C. GIANT CRANE - New Yorkers crane at the world's largest construction crane, a looming 310 feet, which is topping off a new apartment house. It effortlessly lifts giant buckets of cement 30 stories to the top. / ART TREASURES - In Dresden, East Germany, a rich trove of priceless and historic art treasures, including some of the world's fabled gems, goes on exhibition after restoration by the Red Army. / TURKEY TIME - At a Maryland farm, some 2,000 handsome Toms are culled for the finest specimens, to grace the holiday tables of the President and Vice President. The strutting gobblers are their usual selves, quite unmoved by the great cranberry controversy. 3. WINTER FASHIONS - At Garmisch, one of the world's finest winter sports centers, a showing of winter wear for town, for casual wear and for sports, from the Continent's finest designers. 4. CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING IN CANADA - In Toronto, Canada's heavyweight champ George Chuvalo and light heavy Yvon Durelle, champ of Canada and the British Empire, trade leather in an action filled bout that sees the rugged and game Durelle floored four times before he is finally kayoed.
