The latest report from Berlin Pankow cemented the German Division. A wall grows up to East Berlin. This family managed to escape to West Berlin at the last minute before the eviction of her house on the sector boundary. Still, an end of terror measures of Pankow is unforeseeable. On Kennedy's command roll 1500 US troops for reinforcement of Mannheim in direction West Berlin through the zone, hundreds of thousands of West Berliners prepare a stormy reception however the American Vice President Johnson. Johnson shaking thousands of hands on the way to the Rudolph-wild-Platz, where 350,000 demonstrators received him and the blockade runner General Clay with jubelndem applause. By representative of Kennedy's courage speaks to all Germans. In his speech, he explained the concrete walls and Stacheldrahtverhaue were built by men, who have no idea of human freedom. Then goes the American Vice President on the side of the Governing Mayor Willy Brandt in the Notaufnahmelager Marienfelde, where again a wave of warmth and enthusiasm strikes against him. At the arrival of the American troops is a demonstration of Berlin for the Americans from the demonstration of the Americans for Berlin.
A day later comes the German Chancellor in the German capital. Dr Adenauer condemned the actions of Pankow and urges people to keep a cool head. An hour spent the Chancellor in the Notaufnahmelager in Berlin-Marienfelde. After seven days of anxious Berliners took courage back.

The interview s involves Europe, Europe is close nähergerückt. Britain, which has long hesitated to make the leap across the channel, wants to join the European economic community. The Government and the intellectual elite are in favour of this historic step. Figures of international stature characterize the England of today, striking heads, as the writer Somerset Maugham, the philosopher Bertrand Rüssel and the judges T. S. Eliot, whose portraits recently were shown in an exhibition of English master photos in Germany. Now Winston Churchill, will, even perhaps surprising for him, with his dream of a United Europe, the representatives of development that leads from the isolationism in a "Europe of Nations". A decision that easy for sure, not every Englishman.
We asked Londoners, "What do you think of joining England for the EEC?"

Sports reports of a week of riding: the Royal Horse Show, the equine event of the year in Dublin, offered the opportunity to grind out against the English the notch of London the German equestrian team. The national team of Great Britain is still conveniently located in the race after the first round with 12 errors. Pat Smythe rises on "Scorchin" elegantly over the hurdles, but like their comrades, it is pursued by bad luck. The German team, especially Thomas Bagusat on "Bajazzo" excellent jumps in, goes in the second round as the only healthy through the course. This win Winkler, Bagusat, Sajith and Schockemöhle the Aga Khan trophy for the first time and confirm their success in the price of the Nations in Aachen.
A field horse Festival was celebrated in the Swiss Saintnelégier. Ascend annually here wreathed four carriages to the race, and the breeder fight like Roman charioteer as applies it, the great model Ben Hur to emulate. That we have to do it in the Swiss Jura mountains at the female youth with strapping girl proves the breakneck race bareback horses. Not only the nerve, but sometimes the horses go by the Amazons. The winner will be then one day Queen of the horse Festival. Cycling: The Favorites Dieter wool and Hennes Junkermann brought Once again deep air and tested its pedals, they launched to the final elimination of German cyclists before the World Championships. On the difficult 12-km circuit in Dortmund-Hombruch, 15 times to cope with the is, already after the first round, dissolves a group from the field. Their advantage is already five minutes after eight rounds. Rudi Altig has already fallen behind. Favorite die begins on tubes Hill. Only wool and Junker man can hang in the early pace in the long run. You drive on the pursuers away and replace each other in the leadership. the lanky Berlin the German road race champion Junkermann surprisingly is 35 km from the finish and spurtend the victory. With a time of 4 hours, 52 minutes and 59 seconds, he is almost 5 minutes faster than his great opponent Enyuan. Konrad's comment the final word our old friend Mecki has this time: I see you have no desire to choose to go, I can understand. Dear people, For what do you care about policy. Politics is a dirty business. It is To find himself one, which thoroughly get this business. Give him time only 4 years. Must you always paint you the devil on the wall? Remember, your fate is in your own hands. There you go."
