Scope and content
London gave Major Gagarin, the world's first man in space, a great reception today (11-7-61). There were cheers and applause at London Airport. And more cheers as the twenty-seven-year-old Soviet spaceman drove to the Russian Embassy in London before going on to Earl's Court for lunch at the Soviet Exhibition. Major Gagarin was driven in a Silver Cloud Rolls Royce from the airport and its registration number, in honour of the Major, was Y. G. 1.
PS: Major Gagarin leaves London Airport for the Soviet Embassy. Airport workers are amongst the many people who gathered to greet Russia's spaceman.
