Shipbaord newspaper from the QUEEN MARY, 1958, 15 August 1958
Abstract
An August 15, 1958 edition of the "Ocean Times" published on board the QUEEN MARY. The front page has very brief news stories, including the leading story about the crisis in the Middle East at the time and one about a KLM flight that had crashed in the Atlantic. Some of the stories are lighter news like the story of a French woman who lived to 107 years old. There are also cricket, racing, and rugby scores and weather forecasts. Inside there is a short story about things to see in New York and a story about the possible introduction of yaks to Canada. The back has a stock market report. There is also some shipboard information like the surgeon's consulting hours and some meetings taking place aboard.
