Air Units Rescue Wounded From Jungle (Universal Newsreel, Mar 1965)

Description

The original release sheet reads: AIR UNITS RESCUE WOUNDED FROM JUNGLE Mechanical "Angels of Mercy" to wounded soldiers in the Vietnam war are the helicopters flying ambulances that can easily penetrate the jungle and drop down to pick up the wounded who might otherwise die. Here is a typical action scene near Qui Nhon where government troops launched a successful drive to clear Route 19...a vital link across South Vietnam. UNEARTH RARE FIND In the modern City of Alexandria, Egypt, a valuable archeological find is being unearthed near the center of town. It is the ruins of ancient baths that were constructed 2,000 years ago. They were much like our modern Turkish baths...with hot and cold rooms. HAIR-RAISING STYLES! Here are the hair styles to go with the new Paris creations, at least, that's what they say in fashion circles. The hair-dos are be-jeweled! Be-lacquered, beguiling and be-labored! But are they becoming? SPORTS SLALOM TITLE TEST Professional skiing is moving into the Big Leagues with a series of downhill events for the "Big Money." At Windham, N.Y., they hold the second of three meets for the Slalom Crown. The winner is Hias Leitner...Holding a fistful of prices, in cold cash, of course. RACERS TEST CARS FOR INDIANAPOLIS With MAY 31 and the Indianapolis "500" speed classic just around the corner - test tracks are buzzing as cars are tuned up for the big event. Tires have been improved and will bring a more thrilling race to those at the track and to the millions who will witness the classic MCA closed-circuit television.
