United Nations Bars Peking (Universal Newsreel, Nov 1965)

Description

The original release sheet reads: UNITED NATIONS BARS PEKING For the 15th time the United Nations considers the admission of Red China to the world body. The U.S. again leads the opposition to a resolution that would oust Nationalist China and seat the Reds. This year, however, the pattern of voting changes as more and more countries either vote to admit Red China or abstain. The final result is 47 to 47 with 20 abstaining. Observers expect that Red China will be seated next year. PRESIDENT HOSTS MEG The most coveted bits of paper in Washington these past few days were invitations to one of the many social events attended by Princess Margaret and her husband, Lord Snowden. If lightning struck, you were in - feeling way out. The Princess makes a round of Washington landmarks, including President Kennedy's grave, Mt. Vernon, the Lincoln Memorial and the National Cathedral. THe climax of her visit is a dinner-dance at the White House on the President and Mrs. Johnson's 31st wedding anniversary. RED-HOT HOT RODS They even have a Queen at the Hot-Rod Show in New York where the uninitiated would be lost - and hardly give some of these creations garage-room. However, some of these customized cars are valued as high as $70,000 (two cigarette lighters standard) and on display is the car built for The Munsters - the ideal wagon for a ghost-to-ghost tour. SPORTS FOOTBALL DON'T STAND THERE, BRING THE IODINE At Lafayette, Indiana, Purdue goes on a rampage against hapless Minnesota. After a scoreless first quarter, the Boilermakers turn on the steam and the Gophers can do nothing but head for their hole. Final score: Purdue 35 - Minnesota 0.
