Rhino Round-Up (Universal Newsreel, Sep 1960)

Description

The original release sheet reads: RHINO ROUND-UP In Rhodesia, game wardens carry on a remarkable game round-up to rescue animals trapped on soon-to-be-submerged islands behind the Kariba Dam. One party goes after a massive rhino, with a monumentally bad temper and it’s a riotous rampage as they snare him, truss him, and ferry him to shore. Then the beast turns on his rescuers, goring the boat, and tearing up the landscape before departing. UPSIDE DOWN HOUSE In Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, builders finish off a development with a completely upside down house, inside and out. Crazy like a fox. The weir sight draws throngs of prospects to enjoy the topsy-turvy sensation of a fully-furnished house that defies the law of gravity. LEATHER FASHIONS In Forest Hills, New York, high style leather fashions, with a new range of colors and new tannages that drape like cloth. Styles range from luxurious evening wear to sturdy styles for the outdoor girl. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO F.D.R. dedicates might BOULDER DAM, then the 8th wonder of the world. In Portland, Ore., SCHOOL KIDS STRIKE to protest the closing of schools. In Kansas City, a serious study of the SPOONING situation. At Atlantic City, MISS AMERICA is chosen, a million dollar beauty from McKeesport, Pa., 5 and 10. LAWSON LITTLE climaxes his blazing streak with victory in the National Amateur. Harlem explodes with jubilation over JOE LOUIS’ defeat of Max Baer.
