Kennedy Meets Nixon (Universal Newsreel, Nov 1960)

Description

The original release sheet reads: KENNEDY MEETS NIXON At Key Biscayne, Florida, a post-campaign meeting between President-elect Senator John F. Kennedy and his opponent, Vice-President Richard M. Nixon, intended to restore their cordial relationship of 14 years standing. Both Kennedy and Nixon are reserved as to the details of their 63-minute talk despite rumors Kennedy would offer Nixon a post in the Administration. FOOTBALL PURDUE 23 – MINNESOTA 14 At Minneapolis, Minnesota’s Gophers, top-ranked in the nation, take on the challenge of the Purdue Boiler-Makers. Purdue’s first half aerial offensive flattens the Gophers and topples them from unbeaten status, 23-14. MISSOURI 41 – OKLAHOMA 19 Oklahoma’s Sooners challenge Missouri’s second-rated eleven and go down to 41-19 defeat, despite a game and hard-fought battle. Oklahoma trails by only 5 points in the last period but the daring play of Ole Miss breaks the game wide open. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO Los Angeles menaced by a ring of destructive brush fires that take a heavy toll in the arc from the swank film colony of Malibu Beach clear around the city. Make-Up Maestro Max Factor opens a $600,000 salon in Hollywood, and ranking stars of the film capital turn out in force for the Gala Premiere. In New York, a men’s beauty parlor opens, with one of the first patrons Jimmy Durante in a hilarious live-sound sequence as “the Schnoz” gets a facial!
