Time show of war in Viet Nam - the headlines of the world belong to him almost daily. In Moscow, a Soviet press correspondent showed image documents from the Communist North Vietnam. Moments from everyday of people, from which the West is experiencing little war.
America's war in Viet Nam: heißumstritten young, passionate discussion on the streets of the Federal Republic. In Berlin, the first large counter-demonstration on German soil followed on the "Viet Nam Congress' left-leaning students. 150,000 Berliners streamed to the Sohöneberger City Hall, among them many officials: the public service had been given protest holiday.
Berlin police were struggling to protect attacks isolated left protesters before. The anger of the crowd met young troublemakers.
On the John-F.-Kennedy-Platz, the CDU Chairwoman Amrehn radical forces warned before. "The basic law is the most liberal Constitution in the world, but she can be not so liberal that their opponents may once again bring us to freedom."
The Berliners with a symbolic act reaffirmed their commitment to America: they burned a Viet Cong flag of left protesters.

Under the magnifying glass of hot wind in Germany's major ports. Their problems: the shipyards concern revolution in international maritime transport, red numbers. Launched as a folk festival has become rare: in Hamburg, the Chancellor's wife christened the first Luxue liner, a German shipyard built for German billing for 30 years.
In international competition the Germans are bad, because many States subsidize their shipyards. But it is hoped in the Federal Republic by technical ability to move forward. The challenge for Germany's ports bears an English name: container, international standardized plate containers that professionals expect a revolution in maritime transport, deep cross as the change from the sail to the steam engine. In 2 1/2 minutes, the crane is lifting the 20-ton general cargo box of the ship on the container train, which rolls every day recently from Hamburg to the binnendeutschen economic centres.
Bremen, in the fierce competition with Hamburg, is the so-called chassis system specialized in: the container packed on the fabrication is used on specially designed trailers.
Know the German ports: the triumph of the container is not to stop. Its advantages: shorter transportation time, cost savings up to 50%. Rotterdam, eidolic competitor and largest port in the world, wants to magnify his lead by a new front Harbour. In the inner-German duel between Hamburg and Bremen both Harbour Senators believe in their victory. "Hamburg is transit place for Scandinavia and the actual port to the North Sea, the Atlantic in the entire eastern European area with the highest densities of the line departure."
"We are of the opinion that the ports of Bremen and Bremerhaven will make the race among all continental ports in Bremen. Here in Bremen most southward advance cheap and trailing cargoes, in Bremerhaven after the lock before the lock, which can container will find no better ports."

Long the Munich focus on waiting for the moment of opening their 290-metre concrete giant. The work of the Deutsche Bundespost in the TV Tower is still not finished. However, the facilities for the next Olympic Games will be ready in 2 years. 31 television channels and 4,000 telephone via radio link will spread the news of the victories all over the world. A surprise for the philatelists: a cancellation of the Deutsche Bundespost in 140 metres above sea level.
As one of the first entered Lord Mayor Dr. Vogel the much-discussed Schuldenstangerl and enjoyed the first Munich Olympic record: the ride in the fastest elevator in Europe to the highest gourmet restaurant of Germany.
In the shadow of this superlative but an Armenian hermit thwarted the Munich Olympic plans. 16 years ago, he built a church and a small cottage on the upper meadow field. Until today, he successfully refused to leave his silent refuge. So blookierte a loner 2,700 square meters, where Olympic visitors should park in 1972. Hopes for a change of attitude are low, because - as the hermit said: "Ion here only take off, if the people have built a road to the moon."

Once in the year, Lithuanian horse fools to the traditional sled race sports meet on frozen lake Sartai. Some of the most exciting scenes from the run of the 5 best Trotter filmed cameramen from the Soviet Union.
Reins to the final sprint. Popularity and fame for bagging the winner. Best slide Jockey - a vigorous with fifties with the sonorous name "Vaitkuyavichus".
Germany's winter pleasures are on the snow-covered slope. Year after year the spell of lone walks or sweeping slopes, ski aficionados arise. 6 to 8 million federal Republican adorn themselves in every season with the suntanned complexion of popular sportiness. About 10,000 of them but pay the pleasure with an accident on the slopes.
In recent years, it registered an alarming increase in the ski sport injuries. We asked about the causes of a Munich-based surgeon. "The majority of our ski injuries, and there are so 3 to 400 in the season, have either obsolete ski or incorrectly adjusted, so-called safety bindings, and then we have made a very interesting experience, that include the ones, who have consistently made ski gymnastics hardly to our serious injuries."
For the uninitiated, it is initially not easy to operate the complicated mechanism of security ties, because the correct setting is crucial. Security bindings should solve the ski of the shoe, as soon as the runner crashes. Is the binding is too firmly tightened, she releases the foot too late; It is too loose, dissolves the ski at the normal swing. A slow motion recording makes it clear how accurately a binding opens, if it is set correctly.
