Air Operations aboard the Aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CV-6) immediately prior to the entry of the United States into World War II
Aerial view looking down at the U.S. Aircraft Carrier USS Enterprise (CV-6) underway below, just before America's entry into World War 2. Her deck is filled with aircraft. Camera view from on the flight deck shows it filled with Grumman F4F Wildcat planes. Pilots are scrambling to some of the planes. Two deck crew sit at the wheels of an 4F4 (as if ready to pull chocks). The engine starts and runs. Several F4Fs have engines running and begin to taxi. One is given clearance to take off and commences its roll with considerable wing flap extension (short takeoff technique). The aircraft takes off and banks right as it clears the carrier deck. Next, two F4Fs are seen in flight above some clouds. Next, a large formation is seen, and individual planes bank and dive from it. Back on the carrier deck, more F4Fs have their engines running. A gunner is seen setting his machine gun into the rear cockpit position of a plane, the narrator calls a versatile scout-bomber. Closeup of the aircraft (a Douglas SBD Dauntless) as engine starts, deck crew pull chocks, and the pilot gets clearance to take off. Next, camera shoots from rear cockpit, with the plane's tail in center of the images. Views cover the complete takeoff and flight away from the carrier. Next an SBD is seen in flight with both front and rear cockpits open. A flight of three SBDs in formation. Closeup of two SBDs in formation. Extreme closeup of SBD with pilot and gunner both clearly visible in open cockpits. The gunner is maneuvering his machine gun. Two SBDs demonstrate rapid descents as in dive bombing. Back on the carrier, an SBD, with wings folded, is maneuvered by sailors, on the hangar deck. Next sailors accompany a Douglas TBD Devastator torpedo bomber on an elevator up to the flight deck. With its wings still folded, they maneuver it into position on the flight deck. An armorer, using a dolly, rolls a bomb to a TBD where two others secure it in a bomb rack under the center of the aircraft. Other armorers distribute machine guns and ammunition to gunners in cockpits of aircraft on the deck. Several TBDs begin taking off. View from hangar deck, of one airborne and departing. A formation of 9 TBDs in flight. (Note: This clip was probably shot in November 1941, based on the aircraft markings in use at the time. Life magazine did a series of stills, and these clips look like they came from that photo session. Enterprise wears Measure 1 camouflage, which she wore from mid-1941 to a month or two into 1942. The flying units aboard are all designated "6" the same as their carrier, CV-6. Thus they are VF-6; VB-6; VT-6, etc.)
Scenes from 1920 baseball World Series between Cleveland Indians and Brooklyn Robins (Dodgers) in Brooklyn New York.
Several scenes from the 1920 Baseball World Series between the Cleveland Indians and the Brooklyn Robins (also known as the Brooklyn Dodgers). Opening scene shows ballpark and players meeting at home plate, including Wilbert Robinson and Zack Wheat of Brooklyn and probably Tris Speaker of Cleveland seen partially behind an umpire ( and wearing a black armband out of respect for the recent death of Cleveland shortstop, Ray Chapman). Some questions have been raised about the captions appearing in this clip. For example, the first game action scene, is entitled "Jimmie Johnson scores for the Dodgers." Johnson did score for Brooklyn, from third base, on a hit. But in the clip, it appears the scoring runner may be rounding third base, rather than starting from there. Also, the scoring team clearly has dark colored hats--as the Indians wore--and the fielding team has white--the Robins. It is believed the play is actually Joe Wood scoring for Cleveland on a double by Steve O'Neill in the 4th inning of game 1. The second action scene is captioned,"Grimes scores on Griffith's double." But a close look shows the batter running only straight over first base, with no turn towards second. It is believed this may actually show Myers hitting into a 5-2-3-2 double play in the third inning of Game 2 ( with the final throw from the Cleveland first baseman to the catcher edited out.)
