TELSTAR PROGRAMME

Hammarskjoeld anniversary

THE United Nations will transmit a commemorative television programme via the satellite Telstar next Monday to mark the first anniversary of the death of Mr. Dag Hammarskjoeld, the former Secretary-General. The programme will include ceremonies held in New York, Uppsala and Paris.

Audiences on both sides of the Atlantic will be able to see, for the first time, a programme originating at three different points in Europe and North America. The satellite will make one orbit during the programme.
