Summary:

LAST RITES FOR PIUS XII In the great Basilica of St. Peter's, funeral rites for Pope Pius the Twelfth are conducted with all the solemn pomp and grandeur of the Church. In somber magnificence, the remains of the Pontiff go to their final resting place, in a crypt under the Papal altar. AIR CRASH ON HIGHWAY On a New York parkway, an Air Force transport crash-lands, killing one motorist and injuring several others. Three cars are smashed and traffic blocked for hours in the freak tragedy. IKE'S BIRTHDAY Ike's 68th birthday is celebrated in Washington, D.C., with a giant birthday card and cake for the grinning Chief Executive. FASHION PARADE Hats that almost make hair unnecessary are shown in London. Feathers and fancy plumage are the thing, ranging from trim, close-clinging toques to the shaggy "sheep-dog look"! FOOTBALL ARMY TOPS NOTRE DAME. At South Bend, in the last game of this traditional grid rivalry for some years, the blazing Cadet attack downs the Irish by a surprising margin of 14-5. NAVY UPSETS WOLVERINES. Underdogs against Michigan, the Midshipmen trail in the final period by 2 points, after a hot start. Then, in a cliff-hanger finale, they score on Tranchini's pass to achieve a sensational upset victory.
