The current information United States: In Chicago the Republican Party Convention was convened, to nominate the man who will be proposed to the American people as a presidential candidate and successor of Eisenhower. The current Vice President Richard Nixon is expected to be in the elections of the opponents of John F. Kennedy. His hometown of Hyannis, Massachusetts, with much jubilation and enthusiasm siegessicherer received him, the candidate of the Democrats. California: In the area of Los Angeles, the unusually dry weather has caused extensive bushfires. The fire in the large-scale operation was for days on end. Many houses were burned.

Holland: In Holland, it took place for a new factory. Since this imposing chimney in the way was, it was said: so... Some were sad about the case of the nice old giant. If her heart at all so much d'ran depends on: Here you are, you should have him back!

Florida: The US air force has developed a new defense weapon for their bombers. This oversized Stratofestung of type B-52 has 3 m-long drilling missiles on board. If they are shot down, each in own course goes. The enemy radar detection to be misled thereby.

Atlantic: Also the Navy can have with a novelty. In the Pacific, the firing of a Polaris missile from a submerged submarine succeeded for the first time. The bullets flew 1,750 km far. Sport of the week ship ahoy!
Spain-BMS-ship-yourselfer had developed an almost sporty ambition; because it waved the participation in an exhibition in Madrid. The most beautiful and original masterpieces of patient work were even awarded.
After sailing in bottles - to the large sailing regatta on the Dutch Kaag Lake at Leyden. Hundreds of boats of all classes were at the start. The Olympic candidates who went for the last time before the summer Olympics in the race, were ahead of course far all. Or more accurately, almost all...

German Athletics Championships brought the German Championships in Berlin a wealth of good performance in some bad weather. Martin Lauer won the 110 m hurdles, as usual, to speak on their own. The time of the German Champion: 13.8 seconds. In the hammer throw, Siegfried Lorenz came only on 59,65 m. Also the results in the women's discus throw were not just special.

The times: 10.6, 10.9 and 11 seconds. Rita Kortum or Marlene Schmitz-Porz was the question in the high jump. The title-holder Schmitz-Porz won again with 1.67 m.
The men's long jump was a sensation. Dr. Manfred Steinbach could improve the 23-year-old record by Lutz Long twice with 7.93 m. Steinbach then jumped even 8.14 m. That would have been the world record; but the tailwind was too strong. After all: we have a long jumper by world class again. 100 m run of men. Armin Hary managed the feat, to catch the worst start. However, his victory was secure in 10.2. Cullmann and grinding village were running 10.5. At the end of the 4 x 100 m relay. The ASV Köln Cullmann, Lauer, shakers and Germar would be disqualified in the semi-final almost for exceeding the Exchange brand. Now he went to play it safe and still in considerable 40.6 seconds, clinched the German Championship.
