A journey worth traveling celebrities dominate the landscape of this week. So the Shah of Iran, on a State visit in London arrived, he was greeted with all the pomp, the consols for a head of State the Court of St. James.
The State visit of Shah Reza Pahlevis was not only a glamorous social event, he should at the same time reaffirm the political alliance between England and the Iran.
A traveler with concrete, political objectives is Dr. Soekarno, President of the Indonesian Republic. Moscow was one of the first stations of this far Eastern country man of who advertises in the West and in the East for the problems with its understanding and friendship.
After Gettysburg, the farm of the American President, this helicopter brought a traveler without political baggage. Sir Winston Churchill, England's big, old man, left his former war comrades Eisenhower overland drive. After the visit of prize-winning cattle, there was still one last perhaps historic - farewell image.

Geneva Conference 1959 Geneva, traditional Conference city, once the seat of the League of Nations, is target of many travelers these days, but the arrival of the Foreign Ministers of the four great powers perhaps marked a historical date.
The Conference began with a's picture puzzle for the press and for the public. Soviet zones Foreign Minister Bolz should be contrasted with the participating as advisors of the Western powers Foreign Minister by Brentano by the Soviets as equal participants. The West unanimously rejected this demand.
Only after a delay of several hours the journalists could report the opening of the meeting of Foreign Ministers in the world, a conference dealing with Germany and to Berlin.

Focus Berlin airlift monument in Berlin is as a symbol for the vulnerable situation of the city. General Clay, the initiator of this unique supply action had come to the solemn ceremony of remembrance for the victims of the air bridge to Berlin.
Under the French guests of honour of the former Prime Minister, Schuman.
Sir Clement Attlee came from England.
So you thought 10 years after the blockade of an event fateful for the Berlin.
The ruins of the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedächtniskirche conjures up memories. The foundation stone was laid now for their idiosyncratic new. In the middle of the traffic transmission of the West Berlin City gathered the Congregation to a church service. The symbolic hammer blows made bishop Dibelius and Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia. The ruins of the Tower will remain, because it shapes the face of Berlin as well as on the North edge of the Tiergarten the Bellevue Palace, pre built 200 years for the younger brother of Frederick of the great and badly damaged in the war, will be this restored, beautiful, neo-classical building of the Berlin headquarters of the Federal President.

Sports failure and parade found traces of historical elegance our cameraman in a Hamburg-based fencing school. This sport requires reaction speed, concentration and self-discipline, and for every young fencers, classical training with the foil is at the beginning.
Again, it is practiced failure and parade. This is true for the little ones as it did for the future master.
The completion but is then the free battle on the planche. It was about the German championship in the foil.
Left the Hamburg Tim Gerresheim, right Eberhard Mehl from Koblenz.
The 20 year-old Tim Gerresheim won this Championship and remained unbeaten as the only one. The luck of the Earth elegance of today on the large, International Horse Show in Rome. An equally sophisticated and knowledgeable audience, the elite of equestrian started the new season. Against sharp competition of the Italian had the German team a difficult.
Olympic champion Hans-Günther Winkler are among the most successful on this unusually heavy course, with "Halla".
Fritz Thiedemann, who crashed hard with "Meteor", brought his young horse 'Godewind' all the way forward. A great hope more for the Olympic Equestrian Games in 1960.

We observed world records on the water of charming young ladies and major preparations to the beautiful Wörther Lake in Carinthia. Germany's fastest powerboat pilots on world record hunt.
Rolf Goetze is an American special racing boat. As Sigurd launches Kane with her "SUSE II".
When unfavourable weather Dieter Hellwig out. Düsseldorf two new world records. Rolf Goetze and Johnny Kane completed the record blessing.
The average speed of this sport and racing boats is at 100 km per hour on the water an already life-threatening pace.

Monaco Grand Prix start at the "Grand Prix of Monaco". 16 coaches go with successful drivers such as Stirling Moss, Maurice Trintignant, and Jean Behra at the track along the elegant boulevards of Monte Carlo. The only German participants, count trips on his new Porsche formally 2-race car has bad luck. Already in the second round, he collided with two other cars, remains however intact.
After the half distance, the field has thinned. Only five cars are left at the end, and the fastest of them all is the Cooper by Jack Brabham. That means victory in the first round of the World Championship and the Cup in the hand of the Prince pair.

ELSA Maxwell contra... We owe the weirdest sports idea Elsa Maxwell, Hollywood's famous gossip aunt torero Luis Dominguin and the Marquis of Villaverde grant is a first lesson in bullfighting.
For practical teaching in the arena, the hosts however engaged a young bull.
Only after the bull had seen enough red, the Toreadora entered the arena. Maxwell miß's premiere in the arena was a powerful idea and a tough test for the Bull.
