Free train: full steam ahead, so anyway, Canadians had to pave the way is in the new year, because a surprising and fierce cold snap had iced up the St. Lawrence River.
The ice barrier, which itself poses before the ports, endangers navigation and at the same time an important link in the Interior of the country. The St. Lawrence River is since always a main artery of Canadian economic life.

Berlin: Speaking of economy. Did know that Berlin is also a major industrial city as well as its political significance. You know something like that of course...... but and it is good to remember.
The consequences of a political trial are most likely to be felt in the economy, to ensure she have the general public as well as the individual workers for the safe workplace means the secure existence. But all initial worries about the Berlin economy, also to the film industry, which here has settled, have proved to be unfounded. After the German industry to a common help of Berlin has decided that the following points are as urgent before on the program: the guarantee of full employment.
The increase in West German jobs and new investments to the usual extent.
Berlin's Governing Mayor Willy Brandt on President Fritz Berg conveyed the thanks of the capital and its inhabitants. "This debate that this emerging program that was for myself, but especially for my Berlin citizens, a strong encouragement and I think that the effects much greater, will be much more far-reaching in a positive sense, as you can still see it at the moment."

Artist Eddy: Speaking of encouragement! She was also on the agenda of the Berlin Germany Hall, where once again pretty much everything was represented, heard in the variety show sky has long been to the fixed stars.
The three ties came from Hungary. In the tension field of magnetic - and laughter storms: the 3 Merky's. The 2 of Olympus showed compelling and at the same time entfesselnde acrobatics. A thrilling lady from Spain: Pinito del Oro. And who wants to collect the thrill on the height, who put himself in the somewhat uncomfortable position of the Nerveless nocks. An acrobatic performance fresh from America. Star-studded: Speaking of lace! What you see here, has been happening in Brussels and is the spirited kick off a performance that electrified the minds of the Belgians under the slogan of "Night of power". It's because all movie stars.
Brigitte Bardot and Maria Schell were allowed to leave it at their appearance, everyone else had to do about the rest. And therefore ring free for Jean Maria and his latest role as a circus clown.
Fernandel was totally blown away... most likely about the reckless Trapeze Act by Claude Borelli. Anita Ekberg gave off with camels. And Juliette Greco led around their suitors on the nose, but only in the night.

Relaxation: Speaking of nights! You know the medium roads leading in as dark bars but Soho, right behind the Picadilly circus. They are called clubs in London. Can I buy membership for about 5 marks and has then the possibility of so-called attractions via the police an hour to indulge in alcohol and his natural circumstances beyond.
It is quite natural, only one has come in the conservative London to the view that the Club shoot out of the ground like mushrooms lately, you think you see an offshoot of Paris and many are of the opinion that the nocturnal horizon of a Parisian is not expanded the horizon of Londoners.
But Club is Club and as long he does not fall out of the frame of the General rules, can or must ignore the police about it, gracefully tall and with urban tolerance.

High voltage: Speaking of big city! Do you even know that? It looks like a disease and it is also a, and their symptoms, but also its causes are. For increasing material wealth of our age, modern man has given his rest in payment, slightly, what our grandfathers still with the beautiful word called peace of mind.
Tempo, this is the motto that everywhere is a blued us, nowhere it can go quickly enough. Tempo, Yes and who wants to keep up the pace, must have just nerves.
And after work one wonders then about that strange, oppressive feeling believed, that it was to fight only with a single medicine. But all of a sudden it's back. You know it too,"Dear viewers, and if we may give you some humble advice for the coming year, then it is this: A half an hour a day and you will see, it works wonders.

Sports beautiful Acrobat!
For the third time the national championships of the acrobats were held in Moscow. It is a Championship, that exists only in the Soviet Union, which is its sporty character judging between gymnastics and acrobatics. The jumps are a special discipline. Here won the Leningrad Zvereva with the ravishing showing of a double somersaults.

A sporty well known guest received gate vertebrae in Garmisch in Garmisch. The ice hockey team of Spartak Moskau met for a friendly match on the SC Riessersee.
From the outset, the superiority of Russians was evident and nothing remained on the Riesserseern to shield as much as possible as their endangered gate.
The only goal for Germany falls into the 2nd third, everything else remains a matter of the Russians.
Once again attacking the huge Lake, but the ice hockey artists from Russia Parry also this prank. Spartak Moskau wins the encounter with 8:1. Jump in the new year while the ice hockey players already in full swing, begins to slowly warm an other winter sports discipline. In cell on Lake, the elite of the German and Austrian ski jumpers for the big events that lie before them coached and ex world champions Sepp Bradl is of the opinion that his proteges are already better than in the previous year.
Again and again the directions in a Crouch is applied until the prominent students are ready for the first jump from the Hill at the Köhler moat, the criticism of the attitude transmitted immediately by telephone after the jump. Not always avoided crashes,' but most of the time it's happening lightly, and we can be sure: now they jump again.

Curtain on!
You can stand on the Grenzbaum and you can wave over, but you will wait in vain for a response. On this page, children play, they play country, which bears the name death strips next to a geeggten. We are arbitrary and pointless in Schleswig-Holstein, near Lübeck, where the zone boundary runs.
A road that formerly ran through all over Germany, is suddenly to an end and where it is to end, stands a stone that the low German name of a small town to become the reminder: "up Slut" - will join.
