Battle scene along highway shocks Decatur motorists
In Decatur Indiana a 105 millimeter artillery piece abandoned on Highway 121 drew startled reactions from motorists. The weapon, being towed from Indiana to Bushnell Illinois by a veterans group, halted when a wheel bearing burned out. The statue of Liberty’s construction took twelve years, and it had been exhibited in France before arriving in the United States.

Hollywood Predictions No Sinatra Marriage Predictions
AP Movie-TV writer Bob Thomas predicts 1959 Hollywood trends with bold and cautious calls. He expects Ingrid Bergman to triumphantly return to Hollywood and Brigitte Bardot to rise as a sex icon while Elvis Presley faces the draft and Frank Sinatra remains unwed. He foresees fewer domestic productions, more films shot abroad, Westerns dominating TV, pay TV stalled, and veteran stars seeing pay cuts.
