Abortion decision marked by thalidomide case in Phoenix
A Phoenix woman decided to undergo an abortion in her third month after a secret three-man medical board advised it. She had taken thalidomide abroad to aid sleep and later learned of its link to birth defects. Arizona law restricts abortion to protecting the mother's life. The case follows reports of thalidomide-linked malformations in several countries. Dean Rusk urged the Soviets to halt pressure delaying a nuclear test ban and arms talks at the Geneva conference. He called for open U.S. handling and potential further negotiations, while Andrei Gromyko accused Western powers of stalling progress.

Telstar links Europe and U S in first live TV swap
The Telstar satellite bridged Atlantic distance for the first live television exchange. An American 20 minute program showcased U S life from Detroit to Mt Rushmore while Europe aired Big Ben Paris scenes and Rome opera. European reception was enthusiastic and American viewers saw most of the European program before Telstar limited the signal. The schedule shift caused Europeans to miss Kennedy's opening remarks.
