Summary:

DEFENSE COMPLEX Shielded beneath Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado is a mighty bastion that protects millions of Free men. The North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) has moved into their new complex that is in touch with all parts of the globe through 16,000,000 miles of communication lines. Ten thousand telephone and teletype circuit feed information to the center and within seconds after an enemy attack they would have defensive moves underway. KEEP CALM MEN! Should men really keep calm or head for the hills Paris designer Jacques Esterel unveils his fashions for next summer and he's 'way out there. He's a great believer in Pop Art, Pop, and he says he has designed these clothes with an eye on the year 2000. Ah, well, summer madness is upon us in the dead of winter. SPORTS A TASTE OF WHIZZ-SKI: Top skiers from all of Europe and the United States draw a crowd of thousands to Kitzbuhel, Austria for the famed Hahnenkamm men's Ski event. Billy Kidd of the United States does fine until he sprains an ankle....an injury that will sideline him for the rest of the season. After a series of spectacular spills, Karl Schranz of Austria takes over and wins the 21.5 mile downhill test in less than 2:17 minutes....a speed of well over 60 miles-an-hour.
