Up From the Sea (Universal Newsreel, Sep 1965)

Description

The original release sheet reads: UP FROM THE SEA Aquanaut Scott Carpenter and one of his crews of ten return to the surface after a stay in Sealab Two. Carpenter spent 29 days below - twice as long as any man - while three crews of ten men each manned the undersea chamber for fifteen days each. After decompression, Carpenter meets with his wife and has more tales to add to his experiences as the second American to orbit the earth. QUEEN OPENS DUTCH PARLIAMENT Queen Juliana rides through the streets of The Hague to cheering throngs as she opens Parliament. She has both good and bad news to announce. Taxes are going up, but she tempers this with the official announcement of Princess Beatrix engagement. LARGEST TANKER IS LAUNCHED The Japanese, already boasting the largest oil tanker afloat, launch one that's even bigger. The 150,000 ton "Tokyo Maru" is so highly automated that, despite its size, it will require a crew of only 29. SPORTS FOOTBALL NAVY-STANFORD IN DEADLOCK Navy travels to the West Coast to take on Stanford. Johnny Cartwright sparks the Middies with his passing and Terry Murray carries for the sole Navy score. Dave Lewis and Bo Blunt are the passing combination that sets up Stanford's touchdown as the game ends: 7 to 7. BAYLOR NOSES WASHINGTON Baylor plays host at Waco, Texas, as they take on Washington and it's a seesaw battle through the first half. With 17 seconds to go in the half, Terry Southall hits Knox Pittard for a touchdown and it is Baylor 17 - Washington 14. Second half is scoreless so that's the one that counted.
