More from the August 1, 1969 TIME

"The Nation" and "Tv Coverage."

After reading the comparisons of network coverage, I sure wish we were an ABC-news family!  Duke Ellington wouldn't thrill me as much as the idea of seeing (and hearing) Steve Allen freestyle noodling.

See ya next Monday with more we might have missed at the time!

  

Can You Believe It?

Evidently the Oklahomans queried about the Moon Landing for this July 21, 1969 Tulsa World article felt their legs were being pulled.

More believe-it-or-don't next Monday.

  

Banished, I Tell You!

This is from the August 21, 1969 Tulsa World.

Maybe one of you Moon Mavens can enlighten the rest of us, if you know the background, or any follow-up to this news story.

We DO know that the sole remaining "possible" moon voyager mentioned in this article, Harrison (Jack) Schmitt, DID make it to the moon, on Apollo 17, in December 1972, the last time anybody walked on our lunar companion.  According to Wikipedia, he's the "only person without a background in military aviation to have walked on the Moon."

See you next week!

  

A Video Link, That Is

From the July 21, 1969 Tulsa World:

In 1969, this kind of link was impressive.  See you next week!

  

All Mysteries Will Soon Be Solved!

Just ask Al Rossiter in this article in the July 20, 1969 Bartlesville Examiner-Enterprise.

As far as I know, the Moon's origin is still up in the air.  Do you know different?

See ya next week.
