From all over the world: Ireland: the cemetery of Shannon in Ireland was the grisly scene of an airplane disaster. An Italian machine was launched from the nearby airfield. Shortly afterwards she slumped away. The wheels touched the tombstones. In the impact, the aircraft was literally torn apart. It was like a miracle that this accident of 52 inmates 23 could be recovered alive.

Spain: The rescue of pilots in distress was an emergency exercise, attended by plane from Italy, France and Spain. Here, the ground station Mallorca had captured a SOS call. Three machines started to search for a tiny rubber boat in the Mediterranean. The injured pilots had been found after two and a half hours. The exercise was a success.

Switzerland: On Lake Zurich, a strange vehicle proved its driving efficiency. It is a hovercraft. Huge turbine propeller produce compressed air. Let down it forms an air cushion that lifts the friction between boat and water surface. So, the car achieved speeds of over 80 kilometres per hour.

Germany: A pioneer of film technology was 80 years old in Hamburg. It is Karl Geyer, founder and head of the oldest German film processing operation. Today, as all the years Karl Geyer cares in unchanged freshness myself, that all goes well. He designed many machines and Apperaturen. 62 patents and 113 utility models indicate the scope of his work and its meaning. When congratulated the employees, they gave him the model of a development machine. It is actually not surprising that the 80-year-old is still quite youthful acts. Since he was born on February 29 that he celebrated in fact his birthday only for the 19th time. There, one can only say: good luck with the next 19!

Hamburg: A paradise for stamp lovers opened in Hamburg. Two and a half thousand single stamps, sets and collections were auctioned off. The prices were pretty good. Humble 100 marks to..., but you hear!

The key to the success of cheerful tutoring for scatterbrained work colleagues. (Original sound)

Carnival days: sale of crazy time. A lion hunger drove the Munich after exuberance just before the whistle once again into the dangerous vortex of wild Carnival delights. First, strengthening was needed to better float on the waves of joy. But then it went around. The tireless Festesfrohen showed the high school of the Schwabinger hustle and bustle in a sense in all Gaits.
In Bonn, Prince had won the absolute majority Meanwhile Carnival. The mass of his foolish voters jubilantly resorted to the generously scattered slogans: Union in gladness and joy. Is rain brings blessings. Shards bring luck. Sour makes it funny. Well, and then also Yes all of them. The Shrove Monday resembled a magnificent Festival of course also in Mainz. Three hundred thousand people are pleased with the successful cartoons. In Cologne, the Carnival Monday train was themed: "Any animal be Pläsierchen". Under the strict cheerful Sceptre of his Tollität, a whole zoo of curious Urviecher Frolics.

VIII. Olympics our second, final report from Squaw Valley begins with the sensation of the Olympic Winter Games. In Nordic combined, the Scandinavian dominance was broken by Georg Thoma for the first time in Olympic history. It rather took seriously his ski jumping record in the jump. The professionals were surprised when the 22-year-old cut out from the Black Forest in the 15 kilometers cross country not by the Scandinavian Assen. His amazing 4th place secured him the combination victory.
In the women's slalom, the American was Betsy Snite second. Many of the Favorites crashed; also Heidi Biebl. Anne Heggveit of Canada won the gold medal. A hardly expected success was the bronze medal for Barbi Henneberger.
The Frenchman VUARNET won the men's downhill. The track was difficult. Especially in the first part, there was some insidious hump. Hans-Peter Lanig, probably our most Alpine, won the silver medal.
Champion in figure skating was as expected the American Carol Heiss, who has currently no serious rival. A dream routine life of Americans David Jenkins. It was figure skating in perfection. This performance earned him the gold medal before the Czechs divin.
Last discipline and at the same time highlight of the games was the competing. The Finn Halonen came with 92.5 and - shortened start - 83.5 m into second place. Victory and gold medal but went to Germany for the first time. Helmut Recknagel jumped 93.5, 84.5 metres. Gone are the Winter Olympics of Squaw Valley. May the spirit continue, which brought together the youth of the world under the Olympic flag.
