Focal point in Asia to the focal point of Asia was the rear Indian Kingdom of Laos in the new year, when government troops against the incursion of heavily-armed, Communist forces. The Laotian capital Vientiane changed several times over the course of a few days the owner.
The city offered a chaotic picture of the devastation after the fighting. A large proportion of the houses went up in flames.
Once again, the war hit civilians hardest. Women and children are the innocent victims of the bloody clash with the Communists. Many of the Laos-based whites were evacuated by air. The 7th U.S. fleet crosses ready before behind India's eastern coast.

Focal point in Europe in the focal point of political events in Europe became Belgium, when leftist trade union groups against the tax increases and the reduction of supports went on strike. At a press conference, Prime Minister Eyskens declared that the Government will not deviate of street. In the course of this trial of strength occurred heavy clashes between protesters and the authorities especially in Brussels. Even the military was deployed to restore order.
In fierce street battles, there were wounded and dead. The strikers responded to the firm stance of the Government blind destructive frenzy.

Focal point in Africa to the focal point in Africa was the explosion of the third French nuclear bomb at reggae in the Sahara. The explosion, in which established war materiel and weapons for testing purposes in the impact zone, was four times as strong as that which killed 200 thousand people in Hiroshima.

Beginning of the year in the snow Berchtesgaden: very peaceful and Very much attractive the explosions which went against the Berchtesgaden farmers inject the new year to expel the evil spirits according to an old custom. After hearty preparation and with holy water sprinkled the shooters join the March in the wintry Woods.
Close the mouths of old shotguns with wood pellets, the bang of firecrackers is not easy, but ever tighter stuffed the more joyful welcomes the young year.
The new year began with snow, at least in Bavaria, where gathered the ceaseless camping friends to a winter rally in Krün near Mittenwald. Purpose this caravan excursion operated for several years seems to be to get the German camping gear in winter to life, and as you can see, you'll feel on such community places like Zami.

Garmisch: in the new year, the participants in the competing on the major Olympiaschanze in Garmisch-Partenkirchens made the jump on January 1. With favourable weather conditions, this year's ski jumping season was opened. Georg Thoma, the winner in the Nordic combined by Squaw Vallye, should rather consider this discipline as "Minor". He landed here including the "also-ran".
Olympic champion Helmut Recknagel was ranked second with each 77.5 meters in both rounds.
The Russian Tzakadse jumped 84 and 74 meters and secured a surprise victory with 3 points lead before Helmut Recknagel.

A better life of 1961 and here, dear viewers, our traditional proposals for a better life in the new year. First, the extensive explanation work for the Federal post phone books. For installation on all mailboxes, the humidification officials is recommended by the service. The promotion gives a personal touch by mail.
Third suggestion: A dining service in the literal sense. It saves on laundry and cleans the breath mint taste.
Our fourth proposal helps the participants of cocktail parties busy at. Anschnallbare seating as Tuxedo accessories and straps guarantee that survive such efforts without harm for health.
Proposal 5: the Wicklophon. An almost indispensable invention, especially husbands are relieved by the.
Proposal number 6 makes it possible to never be alone now also well guarded teenagers at night.
Proposal 7 meets the communication needs of the German driver. Very discreetly you can To give it its most basic concerns noted through the rear Windows.
Proposal number 8 an evil into its opposite. Foul-smelling exhaust fumes are collected in rubber bags and sold for the benefit of all of the municipal gasworks. So you can earn something themselves through the Auspüffchen of a moped.
For the ninth proposal, thanks to the downtrodden pedestrian is certainly us. An easy-to-use fog Cannon stops cars and opens the way for the true snobs of the economic miracle. The portable Park column in proposal No. 10 solves the vexing problem of the Park.
The carrier of the traffic agent violence we have thought in proposal 11. The swivel chair makes it easier particularly the regulation of the modern roundabout.
The neurosis Keller as proposal 12 to finally those deserved relief provide, the kind their anger, and unless the anger about our weekly news, air must make. Fragments created in this way bring health and happiness with safety.
The small, Mexican bullfighting Juniors symbolize that finally, we had you, dear viewers, wish for the year 1961. Like Dodge also the dark of our time with the same grandeur, like those Bullfighters of the day after tomorrow.
Against stierischen Ernst we To want arm us all with joy. So do it namely the inhabitants of Pamplona in the annual bull run. It makes little sense to run with Bulls to the bet. Make it like the Pamplonesen. Take the Bull of the daily tribulations by the horns. Finally, also in Pamplona was severely injured nobody.
Lose not the patience, if you have temporarily a few ox about themselves, but imagine the danger; because things up not the pants, never a bull fight will be won.
