Home runs fly in baseball's 1964 World Series between St. Louis Cardinals and New York Yankees

The 1964 World Series moves to a filled Yankee Stadium in New York with the Yankees and Cardinals tied one game apiece. In the ninth inning, Yankee great Mickey Mantle comes to the plate as fans cheer, and blasts the first pitch into the right-field stands for a game-winning home run. Teammates congratulate him as he crosses home plate. In game 4, Yankees take early 3-0 lead until Cardinals third baseman Ken Boyer (seen in closeup) hits a home run with the bases loaded to put Cardinals on top 4-3, the final score. Game 5, still at the stadium, Cardinals lead 2-0 in ninth inning but outfielder Tom Tresh blasts homer to tie the game and send it into extra innings. Announcer notes this has been a superb World Series as Tresh seen rounding bases. Shot of scoreboard showing tie score. In top of 10th inning, Cardinals catcher Tim McCarver, seen in closeup, hits a three-run homer to put Cardinals back on top. In the bottom of the 10th, Yankees' Roger Maris hits a popup which Ken Boyer catches leaning into the stands to make the final out.

Women join ranks of police reserves in New York City, during World War I.

Closeup of women in the New York City Police reserve, during World War 1. They stand outside the 23rd Police Precinct ("Tenderloin") Station House on West 30th Street, Manhattan, New York City. Their uniforms include round-brimmed hats and overcoats, and they have round badges topped with eagles, pinned to their coats. Next, about 15 are seen, walking two abreast. All wear white gloves and badges, but otherwise, their uniforms are not identical. One supervisor woman walks beside the group, wearing a slightly different badge. Walking casually, a short distance behind the group is a woman (probably Mary Noonan) in the uniform of a captain (with "railroad tracks" insignia on her collar). Scene shifts to a street filled with a traffic mix of horse-drawn and motor vehicles, all staying fairly clear of trolley tracks visible in the center of the road. A police reserve woman stands in the center of the street, directing traffic. Next, a large group of school children is seen standing on a street corner, accompanied by a woman police officer. They begin to cross the street under the watchful eye of another woman reserve police officer, directing traffic in the street. Some adults cross behind the children. (Note: On May 9, 1918, the New York City Police Department announced formation of a new Police Reserve, that would include a women's contingent. This was the idea of Special Deputy Commissioner Rodman Wanamaker, who reasoned, since New York women had received the vote, on November 6th 1917, they should have a role in enforcing the laws. Over 3,000 women were recruited. Their Captain was Mary Noonan. Their duties did not involve direct dealings with criminals. According to the New York Times of May 10, 1918, "If need arose for use of the nightstick or other instrument for curbing crime,the work would be referred to the men members of the force.")
