Focus Middle East the landing of American naval forces in the Lebanon has initiated a critical phase in international politics. Sentenced by the Soviet Union as a military intervention, the United States justified its initiative with the threatened sovereignty of Lebanon.
8 km southeast placed first 2000 fleet ashore soldiers of the 6th by Beirut. The landing takes place without incident. From the first wave, the international airport is occupied by Beirut.
Although the approach of the Americans in the world as well as in the Lebanon of an ambiguous echo is accompanied, the population of Beirut shows does not in the least worried.
Greeted joyfully by the supporters of the Lebanese Government party, the number of American soldiers has risen now to over 8000. So far none of the rebels followed the call of the opposition leader, to proceed against the US troops. During the protests of the Soviet Union were getting louder, the American Ambassador Murphy came to Beirut, to discuss with the Lebanese President Schamun on the settlement of the unrest.
Schamun is the statesman, who has asked the Americans to protect against the anti-Western rebellion.

It's about the world looked at peace full of excitement these days to New York, but the meeting of the UN Security Council took no positive result. A personal meeting between Eisenhower and Khrushchev, it is hoped a complete easing of the situation now.

"Blue boys" from United States almost all the bodies of the American fleet were under high alert.
In the port of Hamburg, 15 ships of II ran Atlantic fleet. But while elsewhere has been the emergence of the American Navy, with the Middle East crisis in context it was a long-planned visit to friendship. The overseas bridge in succession a total of 6,000 men ashore were used, In contrast to their counterparts in the Lebanon but landed the blue of boys from United States only on the sunny side of life, hilarious garden companies or Hagenbeck.

Cast off!
At the same time, the port of Hamburg celebrated a second Very much significant event. The "Hanseatic", with 30000 gross register tons of in Germany was currently biggest and most modern passenger ship on maiden voyage to New York.
Thousands were on the quayside and wished happy journey the ship and its crew.

The weather forecast reports...
The emergence of dark clouds, not only on the political horizon, this is topic no. 1 for all travellers, and for all those who have their holidays before itself every year around this time. We visited the German weather station in Offenbach, where Dr. Christians gave us an optimistic analysis of the German rainy season. (Original sound)
"Due to statistical considerations and the location of this summer in the rhythm of sunspots, we believe that the focus of the bad weather was already this year in June, so that it will not be a persistently rainy late summer, but that we agree with, we expect good weather periods - between which it but again and again." as always is the case in a normal summer, will come to storm rainfall."

We have used Island Berlin the first sunny days in July to find out what looks like a holiday in Berlin.
Reclassify 2.4 million 2 million to stay home and spend your holidays on the balcony... in the bathtub... or if it comes up - am Wannsee.
Here is the holiday to end.

Storm to the South and here she starts really, on the burner, the floodgates open to Italy. The sunny peninsula registered a record visitor from Germany. Even the crisis in the Middle East does not stop the urge towards the South. The bazaar of Venice have rising sales, and even the oldest hut on the man is brought in the character of the oncoming economic miracle. It is just not so easy to resist the magic of the lagoon city.

Short and cool but we travel, the Adriatic sea along. We follow the smell of a German tea boiler, are guided by a German clothesline and finally reach Milano maritima, where German fashion Italian premieres. -There are the latest models of the beach by Bessie Becker: Kess and short and quite in the style of the new line.

Taken on the horns after the jump in the floods a jump to Spain. Here started the time of Grand bullfights. The biggest of them all is the Bullfight in Pamplona, the Festival of would-be Bullfighters, or better said, the Festival of angry bulls, on this occasion it is allowed to take revenge, them once in a year - and they do it with wutschnaubender thoroughness.

Athletes at the start of the ticket to Stockholm was issue Nr. 1 for the German Athletics Championships in Hannover. There are considerable benefits in all disciplines and 14 old records have been broken.
In the triple jump won the Kitzinger Strauss with 15 m 29-10-battlemaster Dieter Möhring is brilliant in form and can be 4 m 30 among themselves.
Manfred Germar is the sensation of the 100-meter dash in 10.2, he creates year world record.
Best man on the route of the barrier is still Martin Lauer. His 13.7 seconds are world class time.
Lawrenz, Dohrow and burners start with equal chances for the 1500-meter run.
After the first round, the field is still relatively close together. But Edmund Brenner rushes forward, hard pressed by the flying school teacher Günther Dohrow.
Ranked No. 3 Dohrow seems to gather reserves for the Sprint; but he is No more catching up the edge of the burner. Edmund Brenner WINS in 3 minutes 51.2.
The 4 x 100 metres relay is a race between KSC and the ASV Köln.
After a lightning-fast change of the KSC runs counter to a secure victory. Fullback Meyer is hardly to catch up. But then comes Manfred Germar cross used on train No. 3.
Yet in the final meters, he creates the incredible, he brings the season victory for the ASV Köln.
