Same as Catalog # 515316. News in Brief: Olympian Honeymooners. America's Harold Connelly, Olympic hammer throwing champion, and Mrs. Connelly, the former Olga Fictive - Czech discus gold medallist, arrive in New York from behind the iron curtain. Ocean liner "America" sailing. On board, the newlywed athletes walk on deck. Star-crossed lovers (only they didn't wind up dead): he's from the U.S., she's from an oppressed "Red" nation. Then they chat with reporters (no audio of them).
