Tragedies of the Time Tradegy shocked the world when 269 innocent people were killed in September. These persons were passengers aboard a Korean Air Line's jet-liner that was shot down over Soviet air space. The news caused many disturbances to occur around the globe. Thousands demanded the Soviet Union be penalized for their actions. Military personnel were mortified at the dynamite- laden U.S. barracks in Beirut, Lebanon. Two hundred and forty Marines died in the blast, many were critically injured. Americans were saddened at the loss of several well-known people: radio and television star Arthur Godfrey, film 84 stage stars Raymond Massey, David Niven, and Pat O'Brien were just a few of the all- time greats. 1 Arthur Godfrey Raymond Massey g Rilssiq l .E-WY Mk U.
