The World

The women of 1941 get their very own newscast. Celeste Headlee introduces an episode of “Women in the News,” presented by the Nehi Bottling Company. We hear news about the first baby delivered during a blackout drill, and how women are getting to know their neighbors better by being air raid wardens. Plus, this week’s winners of Royal Crown Cola cartons.
