The World Series (Universal Newsreel, Oct 1965)

Description

The original release sheet reads: THE WORLD SERIES The Minnesota Twins have the Los Angeles Dodgers seeing double as they take the first two games of the World Series. 8-2, 5-1. The highlight of the first game is the fateful third inning when the Twins need a traffic cop on the base paths as they score six runs. The Dodgers were never the same after that. BERLIN ESCAPE Here is a social document of our times. At a cemetery on the East-West Berlin border, friends of an East Berliner raise a ladder from the West. He dashes to the ladder, then up and over to freedom. He has a fiancee in the West, proving that love laughs at locksmiths and border guards. FOOTBALL ARMY............10 BOSTON.........0 West Point takes on Boston at the Military Academy and after a scoreless first half the Kaydets get the breaks. A recovered fumble leads to an Army field goal and a miscued punt by BC gives Army the ball on the thirty yard line and they score again. TEXAS........27 INDIANA....12 The Number One rated Texas Longhorns have a fight of it before they can push Indiana into a corner and win. It is not until the end of the first half that Texas gets a comfortable lead...and Indiana throws a few screws into them in the second half before Texas winds up on top at the final whistle.
