The following events occurred in November 1970:

November 1, 1970 (Sunday)
  • A fire killed 146 people at a dance hall outside of Saint-Laurent-du-Pont in France.[2] Firefighters discovered upon arrival that the management of Club Cinq Sept had kept the emergency exits padlocked in order to keep people from entering the building without paying. At 1:45 in the morning, when the fire broke out, there were about 150 dancers still in the building who had paid to hear a performance by the rock group "The Storm". The dance hall was decorated with "paper and plastic psychedelic decorations" which caused the fire to spread rapidly, and firefighters in Saint-Laurent were only notified after two young men ran nearly a mile to the town to sound the alert. Witnesses told investigators that the fire had started after a patron had lit a cigarette and then tossed the burning match aside rather than extinguishing it[3]
  • Zygfryd Wolniak, the Deputy Foreign Minister of Poland, and Chaudhri Mohammed Nazir, the deputy director of Pakistan's Intelligence Bureau (IB), were killed by a truck, along with two photographers, during an attempt to kill Poland's President Marian Spychalski at a welcoming ceremony in Karachi.[4] The driver, who had stolen a cargo truck belonging to Pakistan International Airlines, reportedly shouted "Down with Communism" as he drove into the crowd, apparently mistaking Wolniak for Spychalski, then shouted "I have done my job!"
  • Congo's President Joseph Mobutu won the yes-no vote for a 7-year term as president for the Central African nation[5] Balloting was not secret, and only 157 voted "no" against 10,131,669 who voted "yes".

  • Dollree Mapp, the petitioner in the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case of Mapp v. Ohio that set the precedent for barring the use of illegally obtained evidence in a criminal prosecution, was arrested by police in New York City on a search warrant, and found to have over $10,000 worth of heroin and over one million dollars in stolen merchandise, including antiques, silver, televisions sets and furs[7]

  • In U.S. midterm elections for the Congress, the Democrats lost four seats in the Senate, narrowing their majority to 53 of the 100 seats,[9] but gained 12 seats in the House to strengthen their majority to 255 of the 435 seats.
  • Died: Peter Karadordevic, 47, the last King of Yugoslavia, who reigned as King Peter II until he was deposed in 1945, died at a U.S. hospital in Los Angeles.

November 4, 1970 (Wednesday)
  • Test pilot André Turcat of France's Sud Aviation company flew the prototype of the Concorde supersonic airliner over the Atlantic Ocean at a record speed for a commercial aircraft, reaching Mach 2 and averaging 1,370 miles per hour (2,200 km/h) for nearly 50 minutes. Flying at 52,500 feet (16,000 m) over the ocean, he reached a maximum speed of 1,404 miles per hour (2,260 km/h) in Concorde 001 before returning to Toulouse. On the same day, British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) test pilot Brian Trubshaw tested the capabilities of the other prototype in the joint venture, Concorde 002, but had to return early after a warning light indicated an engine fire[11] The Concorde would begin regular service in 1976 by British Airways and Air France, but all other airlines canceled their orders for Concorde jets because of environmental concerns, and no Concorde has been flown since 2003.[12]
  • Social workers in Los Angeles took custody of a 13-year-old victim of child abuse identified in studies by the pseudonym "Genie".[13] She had been kept in confinement to one room by her father since her birth, until her mother finally took her from the home in October. Though her rescue was not publicized at the time, the case of "Genie", who had not learned how to communicate, would become a landmark in the study of linguistics, psychology and education of a feral child.
  • As part of its policy of Vietnamization, the United States turned control of an air base to the control of South Vietnam for the first time, releasing the Sóc Trăng Airfield to the Army of the Republic of Vietnam, along with 31 American helicopters.[14]

November 5, 1970 (Thursday)
  • The Roman Catholic Church's Congregation for Divine Worship announced a continuance of the tradition that barred women from serving as acolytes to assist the priest during services, but, in following the reforms from the Second Vatican Council ("Vatican II") that concluded in 1965, directed that women could allow non-Gospel scripture during mass, lead the congregation in singing, and perform other tasks[15]

At 4,622,000 square miles (11,970,000 km2) the proposed federation, which never took place, would have been the seventh largest nation in the world.
  • Tom Dempsey, the placekicker for the New Orleans Saints kicked from his team's 37-yard line to set an NFL record with a 63-yard field goal, giving his team at 19–17 win over the visiting Detroit Lions on the last play of the game. One of the Lions commented afterward, "Tom Dempsey didn't kick that field goal, God kicked it.".[23] Dempsey, who had turned the handicap of being born without toes on his right foot, wore a special shoe. At the end of the season, he graciously accepted the "Bonehead of the Year Trophy", normally voted to an athlete whose mistake cost a team a victory, for the game winning score that "booted the Saints out of getting pro football's No. 1 draft pick".[24]

  • The Supreme Court of the United States voted, 6–3, against bypassing the lower federal courts in order to hear a petition filed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts against the United States, regarding the constitutionality of the Vietnam War.[26] A law passed by Massachusetts allowed state residents the right to refuse military service in an undeclared war. The vote was unusual in that usually activist justices Thurgood Marshall and William J. Brennan Jr. sided with the majority, and conservative justices Potter Stewart and John Marshall Harlan, like activist William O. Douglas, voted in the minority. The majority ruling said only that "The motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied", and Douglas's dissent (which Stewart and Harlan declined to concur with) stated that "It is far more important to be respectful to the Constitution than to a co-ordinate branch of government", a reference to a White House request that the Supreme Court not consider the controversial issue while U.S. troops were still fighting in Vietnam.
  • The Soviet Union launched Luna 17, a lunar lander which carried the first wheeled vehicle to the Moon.[27]

McQuarrie, Jr., who had been held captive since October 21, when the pilot of their U-8 Seminole had mistakenly landed in the Armenian SSR during a flight in Turkey.[28] Released with the generals were Turkish Army Colonel Cevat Denli and the plane's pilot, U.S. Army Major James P. Russell, who had been flying in bad weather to the Turkish border town of Kars and had touched down instead in Leninakan (now Gyumri in Armenia) 40 miles (64 km) to the east.

November 11, 1970 (Wednesday)
  • The Convention on the Non-Applicability of Statutory Limitations to War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity went into effect 90 days after a tenth state had ratified it.[29] The convention had been adopted by the UN General Assembly on November 26, 1968, and provided that nations that abided by the convention would allow the extradition of persons indicted for participating in genocide, regardless of what the time limit was in the nation for prosecuting murder. At the time of its effectiveness, only Communist nations had agreed to it, starting with Poland, followed by the Soviet Union, the Byelorussian SSR and Ukrainian SSR (both Soviet Republics separate General Assembly members), Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia Bulgaria, Hungary, Mongolia and Romania being the first ten. No western European nation has signed or ratified the convention, nor have the United States, China, or Canada.[30]

James McKeever was born in Philadelphia, PA at Frankfort Hospital.

November 12, 1970 (Thursday)
Amalrik
  • Soviet author Andrei Amalrik was sentenced to three years in a labor camp for "distributing anti-Soviet concoctions".[31] Amalrik, who had been arrested on May 21 for writing the book Will the Soviet Union Survive Until 1984? had been given the maximum sentence under a recently enacted law. His co-defendant at the trial in the closed city of Sverdlovsk , Lev G. Ubozhko, received the same sentence for circulating mimeographed copies of Amalrik's book and other anti-Soviet literature among university students. Amalrik would be held for another year at the "reinforced regime" level internment camp even after completing his three-year sentence.[32] He would pass away in 1980[33] and the Soviet Union would survive for only seven more years after 1984.

  • Southern Airways Flight 932 crashed into a hillside near Kenova, West Virginia, killing all 75 people aboard, including 37 players and 5 coaches from the Marshall University football team.[41] The twin engine DC-9 airplane was making its approach to Huntington, bringing back the team and its supporters from Greenville, North Carolina, where the Marshall Thundering Herd had lost to East Carolina University, 17–14, when it struck treetops on a high ridge one mile from the Huntington Airport's runway 11. The final NTSB investigation concluded that Flight 932, for unknown reasons, was flying below minimum descent altitude during its approach and that the most likely explanation was either a misunderstanding of the instrument data or a defect in the plane's altimeter.[42]
  • The Soviet Union entered the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) after having resisted outside influence on its airspace for more than 25 years.[43] Russian became the fourth official language of the ICAO (after English, French and Chinese).[44]

  • Soviet newspapers quoted former Communist Party leader and Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev for the first time since Khrushchev's removal from office in 1964, as the Soviet news agency TASS printed a response to LIFE magazine's November 6 announcement that his memoirs would soon be published. Khrushchev was quoted as saying that "It is evident from reports of the press in the United States and some other capitalist countries that the so-called memoirs or reminiscences of N.S. Khrushchev are now being prepared for publication. This is a fabrication and I am indignant at this. I have never passed on memoirs or materials of this nature, either to Time or other foreign publishing houses. I did not turn over such materials to the Soviet publishing houses either. Therefore, I declare that this is a fabrication. The venal bourgeois press has many times been exposed in such lies."[48]

November 17, 1970 (Tuesday)
  • The Soviet Union landed Lunokhod 1 on Mare Imbrium (Sea of Rains) on the Moon[49] Lunokhod, the first wheeled vehicle to land on another world, was released after Luna 17 made a soft landing.

  • In a special message to Congress, U.S. President Richard Nixon asked for an appropriation of an additional one billion dollars for foreign aid, declaring "We must signal clearly to the world... that the United States will help those who demonstrate their determination to help themselves."[53] While almost half of the US$1.035 billion was earmarked to assist Israel and $150 million to South Korea, Nixon asked for another $155 million to prop up the government of Cambodia in its fight against the Khmer Rouge and North Vietnam.[54]

November 19, 1970 (Thursday)

  • The Miss World 1970 beauty pageant, hosted by Bob Hope at the Royal Albert Hall, London was disrupted by women's liberation protesters who hurled leaflets, smoke bombs and "stink bombs" on stage. Emcee Bob Hope left the stage temporarily, muttering "Who are these bastards?", until police cleared the hall, then crowned Jennifer Hosten of Grenada as "Miss World".[58] Earlier on the same evening a bomb was placed under a BBC broadcast vehicle by The Angry Brigade, in protest at the entry of separate non-white and white contestants by South Africa. Pearl Jansen, the non-white representative designated "Miss Africa South", was the runner-up in the Miss World contest. By the weekend, a scandal emerged that Miss Grenada had been eliminated in the quarter-finals and that, even after being included in the final voting, finished second to Miss Sweden. Sir Eric Gairy, Prime Minister of Grenada, was one of the nine judges[59]

  • Guinean president Ahmed Sékou Touré accused Portugal of an attack when hundreds of mercenaries land near the capital, Conakry, and asked for help from the United Nations.[63] Portugal denied sending troops the West African nation; without addressing which nation's troops were involved, the UN Security Council voted unanimously to demand the immediate withdrawal of any foreign troops from Guinea and to send a mission to assess the situation, but declined to send troops. The attack was apparently in retaliation for the support that Toure's government was providing for the neighboring colony of Portuguese Guinea.

  • Simas Kudirka, a Lithuanian radio operator of the Soviet fishing trawler Sovetskaya Litva, jumped on board the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Vigilant while the two vessels were tied up alongside each other at Aquinnah, Massachusetts, on the Martha's Vineyard island. Rather than granting Kudirka political asylum, the Coast Guard instead returned Kurdirka to Soviet custody at the end of the day, prompting protests against the Guard by fishing industry leaders[64] President Nixon announced one week later that he would ask for a full investigation of the Cost Guard's actions and the White House confirmed that the commander of the Coast Guard District in Boston had made the decision to deny sanctuary[65]
  • Pope Paul VI ruled that Roman Catholic cardinals who were 80 years old or older would not be allowed to participate in the next election for a pontiff. The reform, effective January 1, 1971, disenfranchised 25 cardinals born in or before 1890. Most of those barred were known for their conservative views, and 11 of the 25 were Italian. The New York Times noted that the move, which reduced the number of Italian members of the College of Cardinals from 38 of 127 to 27 of 102, "increases the chances for the new Pope to be non-Italian", something that had last happened almost 450 years earlier, when Pope Adrian VI of the Netherlands was elected in 1523.[66] While Pope John Paul I, the Pope immediately after Paul VI in 1978, would be Italian cardinal Albino Luciani, his successor Pope John Paul II would be cardinal Karol Wojtyla of Poland

  • Kosmos 357, the Soviet Union's first test of a lunar module ascent stage for a possible manned mission to the Moon, was launched and proved to be a success. Two followup tests took place successfully on February 26 and August 12, but the expenses for the development and production of the powerful N1 rocket would eventually lead to the end of the Soviet manned lunar exploration project[67]

November 25, 1970 (Wednesday)
  • Tatenokai militia leader and novelist Yukio Mishima (a pen name for Kimitake Hiraoka), along with four followers, took over the eastern headquarters of the Japan Self-Defense Forces in Ichigaya in an attempted coup d'état.[68] After Mishima's speech failed to sway public opinion toward his right-wing political beliefs, including restoration of the powers of the Emperor, he committed seppuku, public ritual suicide, slicing his stomach with a samurai sword. One of his disciples then completed the ritual by beheading Mishima with another sword.
  • A bank in Buffalo, New York became one of the first in the United States to allow customers to take advantage of a network of 24-hour automated teller machines (ATMs). Marine Midland Bank— Western installed the ATMs on the outside wall of two branches. The cards, which were a loan on a bank credit card rather than a withdrawal from the customer's account, allowed to get either $25 or $50 (equivalent to $160 or $320 nearly 50 years later).[69]
Walter J. Hickel
  • Walter J. Hickel, the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, was dismissed from his job by President Nixon in what was described by the Associated Press as "the first outright firing of a Cabinet member in years",[70] was summoned into President Nixon's office shortly after 5:00 in the afternoon and told that there was a "lack of 'mutual confidence'" between them, and was asked to leave immediately. Hickel had formerly been Governor of Alaska before being asked to become part of the Nixon cabinet.

  • The political leader of East Pakistan's Awami League, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, threatened to lead a secession of the Bengalis' territory from the Punjabis' West Pakistan if Pakistan's President Yahya Khan postponed the scheduled December 7 national parliamentary elections. The voting had been set for October 5, then rescheduled because of the monsoon season. Referring to the West Pakistan controlled national government, Mujibur told a news conference that "our own rulers" were guilty of criminal negligence in the relief effort following the Bhola cyclone and said that "a massive rescue and relief operation, launched within 24 hours of the occurrence, could have saved thousands of lives." He added that Yahya Khan's response to the disaster "has only brought in to sharp focus the basic truth that every Bengali has felt in his bones, that we have been treated too long as a colony and a market."[71]
  • A party of hunters in Dixie County, Florida discovered the wreckage of a small airplane and the four members of the Redd family of Plymouth, Michigan, more than two years after they had vanished while flying from Valdosta, Georgia to New Port Richey, Florida.[72] Robert Redd was flying himself and his brother Edward, along with Edward's wife and son, through bad weather for a Labor Day weekend visit to his Mother on August 30, 1968.[73] The plane had gone down near Cross City but a two-week search in 1968 had found no trace of it.

Pope Paul VI[74]
  • Bolivian artist Benjamin Mendoza tried to assassinate Pope Paul VI during his visit in Manila.[75] South Korean Archbishop Stephen Kim Sou-hwan was cut on the hand while intervening to protect the Pontiff from Mendoza, who rushed through a crowd of well-wishers after the papal entourage had descended from their airplane at the Manila Airport. Later in the visit, Pope Paul calmly delivered a speech and closed with the greeting "Mahuhay Filipinas!", meaning "Long live the Philippines" in the Tagalog language. The Vatican's physician revealed a month later that the Pope had been stabbed twice in the neck by Mendoza, with the blade hitting on each side of the critical jugular vein, but told the newspaper Resto del Carlino that the blade had been partially blocked by "the heavy, starched breast cape" that the Pope had been wearing.[76]
