November 3, 1960 (Thursday)

  • Explorer 8 was launched to study the Earth's ionosphere.[14] The satellite, which confirmed the existence of a helium layer in the upper atmosphere, stopped functioning later in the year but would remain in orbit for more than 50 years until returning into Earth's atmosphere on March 28, 2012.[15][16]
  • Died: Félix-Roland Moumié, 35, Cameroonian Marxist leader, was assassinated by a fatal dose of thallium, received earlier while he was visiting Geneva.[17]

November 4, 1960 (Friday)

  • The Soviet news agency TASS was forced to deny that Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev had been overthrown in a coup, after a rumor reported in a Vienna evening newspaper was repeated worldwide. The story began earlier in the day when a man, claiming to be an Austrian employee of the Soviet Embassy, told the Abend Presse that he had learned from an indiscreet Soviet employee that disgraced former leader Georgi Malenkov had replaced Khrushchev. The German-language paper then ran the banner headline, "Struggle For Power In Moscow: Khrushchev ousted, Malenkov Successor".[18] Western newspapers repeated the news, usually with the caveat that it was unconfirmed, before TASS debunked it.[19]
  • As John F. Kennedy arrived at the Chicago Stadium for a pre-election rally, Jaime Cruz Alejandro forced his way through the crowd to get as close as he could to Kennedy's open convertible, then fought with police after running from them. He was found to be carrying a loaded .25 caliber pistol. Moments later, Reverend Israel Dabney was caught attempting to carry a .38 revolver into the coliseum. Both men said that they were carrying the weapons for self-defense and were later released.[20]
  • Filming of The Misfits, starring Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe, was finished. It proved to be the last film for both legendary actors. Gable, who had performed many of his own stunts, had a heart attack the next day and died on November 16. Monroe would die in 1962 during the filming of the never completed Something's Got to Give.[21]
  • Anacafé, the Asociación Naacional del Café, was founded in Guatemala City to increase the world market share of coffee grown in Guatemala.[22]

November 5, 1960 (Saturday)

Silkworm missile
  • The People's Republic of China successfully built and launched its first anti-ship cruise missile, basing it upon a Soviet weapon. The R-2, known popularly as the silkworm missile, had a range of 350 miles (560 km).[23][24][25]
  • Dorrence Darling II, a football player for Illinois State University, broke his leg during a game. Poor medical treatment led to an amputation, and "the Darling case" would become a benchmark in medical malpractice law, legally presuming a hospital to be responsible for the mistakes of physicians to whom it extended privileges.[26][27]
Ward Bond and Mack Sennett [28]
  • Died:
    • Ward Bond, 57, American TV actor and star of the western series Wagon Train, died of a heart attack while in Dallas, where he was scheduled to appear at the halftime show of an NFL game between the Cowboys and the Los Angeles Rams. His death came days after filming his ninth episode of the 1960–1961 season.[29] His final show would be telecast on February 22, 1961.[30]
    • Johnny Horton, 35, American country music singer known for "The Battle of New Orleans", was killed in an automobile accident when his car collided with a truck near Cameron, Texas[31]

    • August Gailit, 69, Estonian novelist[33]

  • One person was killed and 18 injured by a bomb that had been placed inside a subway car in New York City. The bomb was the fifth to have exploded in New York City on a Sunday since October 2, and the first to have taken a life. The five bombings had injured a total of 58 people to that time, including the fatal injury to Sandra Breland, a 15-year-old Brooklyn resident.[34][35]
Raeder

  • DFS Group, the first major network of duty-free stores, began operations with a shop at the airport in Hong Kong where luxury goods were sold to international travelers with the duty (normally collected upon arrival abroad by customs at the airport) pre-paid and forms filled out by the store. DFS Group now has locations around the world.[37]
  • In the worst plane crash in the history of Ecuador, all 37 people on a Companía Ecuatoriana Aérea (CEA) flight were killed when the Fairchild F-27 crashed into the side of the 14,623 foot high Atacazo volcano. The plane had been making an approach to Quito following takeoff from Guayaquil.[38]
  • A transit of Mercury (the planet Mercury passing directly between the Sun and the Earth) took place from 14:34 UTC to 19:12 UTC.[39] The Sun-Mercury-Earth alignment happens 13 times in a century and had last taken place on May 5, 1957, and would not happen again until May 9, 1970.[40]
  • On the day before the U.S. presidential election, Republican candidate Richard M. Nixon appeared on the first telethon in the history of presidential campaigning. From 2:00 to 6:00 p.m. (EDT), on ABC, CBS and NBC, Nixon answered questions called in, by viewers, to a Detroit studio.[41]

1960 Presidential election results map
  • In the 1960 United States presidential election, a record number of American voters turned out to make their choice between Democratic candidate and U.S. Senator John F. Kennedy and Republican candidate and U.S. Vice President Richard M. Nixon. With 270 electoral votes needed to win, Kennedy received 303. The popular vote was the closest in history. Kennedy (34,220,984) won slightly more than Nixon (34,108,157) by a margin of 16 of one percent of the total votes cast.[44]
  • Little Joe 5, the first of the series with a McDonnell production Mercury spacecraft, was launched from Wallops Island to check the spacecraft in an abort simulating the most severe launch conditions. The launch was normal until 15.4 seconds after lift-off, at which time the escape rocket motor was prematurely ignited. The spacecraft did not detach from the launch vehicle until impact and was destroyed. Since the test objectives were not met, a repeat of the mission was planned.[4]

November 9, 1960 (Wednesday)

  • The day after the American presidential election, Vice President Nixon conceded defeat to Senator Kennedy at 12:47 p.m. EST, 17 minutes after the news came that Kennedy had won Minnesota's 11 electoral votes. With 270 needed to win, victory in Minnesota took Kennedy to at least 272.[45]
  • Nicaragua was invaded by exiles who crossed over from Costa Rica and captured the border towns of Jinotepe and Diriamba.[46] The United States Navy was directed to the area on November 17 and the rebels were defeated by December.[3][46]

  • According to claims published later in the Fortean Times and attributed to Russian journalist Yaroslav Golovanov, "A cosmonaut called Byelokonyev died on board a spaceship in orbit." No evidence has been found to corroborate Golovanov's statement.[49]

November 11, 1960 (Friday)

RMS Britannic

November 12, 1960 (Saturday)

  • A Type 3 solar flare, described by an American astronomer as "one of the largest, if not the largest, ever recorded" disrupted communications worldwide. An aurora borealis, normally visible only at far north latitudes, could be seen in the early morning hours in much of the Northern Hemisphere, including Washington, D.C..[52][53]
  • Construction of the first Soviet nuclear submarine, the K-19, was completed, three days before the first American nuclear sub (the USS George Washington) would set to sea with nuclear weapons. The K-19, which would receive its nuclear arsenal later, was the first of the eight "Hotel class" nuclear-powered subs.[54]

November 13, 1960 (Sunday)

  • The Movimiento Revolucionario 13 de Noviembre, also known as MR-13, was born when leftist rebels within the Army of Guatemala, led by Lt. Marco Antonio Yon Sosa, attempted a coup against the government of President Miguel Ydígoras Fuentes. The coup was put down with American assistance, but the MR-13 group continued to fight against the Guatemalan government.[46][55]
  • A fire at a movie theatre in the Kurdish village of Amuda, Syria, killed 152 children who had been watching an "educational film".[56] Some sources claim that the fire had been set by Syrian security forces.[57]

  • African-American singer and actor Sammy Davis Jr. married white Swedish actress May Britt at a time when interracial marriage was uncommon, and, in some states, illegal. The resulting fallout would effectively end Britt's film career.[58] The couple would have a daughter in 1961, and would adopt two sons, before separating in 1967 and divorcing in 1968.[59]
  • System checkout tests were completed on Mercury spacecraft No. 7. In the opinion of McDonnell, the results demonstrated that this spacecraft was adequate for a crewed mission.[4]

November 15, 1960 (Tuesday)

  • The submarine USS George Washington, armed with 16 nuclear-tipped Polaris missiles, sailed from the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina, on an undisclosed route. President Eisenhower praised history's first mobile nuclear missile base, noting that the Polaris firing submarines "possess a power and relative invulnerability which will make suicidal any attempt by an aggressor to attack the free world by surprise". The U.S. Navy said that the 16 missiles had the same destructive power as "the total of all of the bombs dropped during World War II".[3][63] The Polaris has been described as "the world's most credible deterrent system".[64]

November 16, 1960 (Wednesday)

  • At the Moscow conference of the world's 81 Communist parties, Albania's Enver Hoxha criticized the parties of Soviet Union, Bulgaria, Poland and other Eastern European nations, in a speech entitled "Reject the Revisionist Theses of the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the Anti-Marxist Stand of Khrushchev's Group! Uphold Marxism-Leninism!".[65]

November 18, 1960 (Friday)

  • In a major change of American policy, President Eisenhower ordered the aircraft carrier USS Shangri-La and four other United States Navy warships to patrol the coasts of Nicaragua and Guatemala, declaring that the U.S. would "use military force rather than diplomatic protests" to prevent Communism from spreading from Cuba to other nations in the Western Hemisphere.[68]
  • Spacecraft No. 8 was delivered to Cape Canaveral for the Mercury-Atlas 3 uncrewed orbital mission.[4]

Losing ground were the leftist Democratic Socialists, falling from 40 to 23. Ikeda told a news conference that the results showed that the Japanese people approved the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty that had been violently protested in the spring.[70]

November 21, 1960 (Monday)

  • An attempt to launch the uncrewed Mercury-Redstone 1 rocket from Cape Canaveral failed when the premature cut-off of the launch vehicle engines activated the emergency escape system when the vehicle was only about 1 inch (25 mm) off the pad. The launch vehicle settled back on the pad with only slight damage. The undamaged spacecraft was recovered for reuse.[4]
  • United Nations troops clashed with the Congolese Army, for the first time since the Congo crisis had begun. Colonel Joseph Mobutu ordered soldiers to seize a diplomat at Ghana's embassy in Leopoldville. A force of 150 U.N. troops from Tunisia, supplementing Ghanaian embassy guards, fought for three hours in defending the embassy before the government troops withdrew.[71]
  • Phase II of the helicopter Mercury spacecraft airdrop program began and was completed by November 30.[4]
  • Died: Phao Siyanon, 50, former Interior Minister of Thailand and head of the Royal Thai Police until being fired in 1957, died of undisclosed causes while in exile in Switzerland.[72]

November 22, 1960 (Tuesday)

  • The USS Ethan Allen, at 410 feet (120 m) in length the largest Polaris submarine in the U.S. Navy fleet, was launched from the yards at Groton, Connecticut. Not yet equipped with missiles, the submarine was designed to fire nuclear weapons a distance of 1,500 miles (2,400 km).[3] On May 6, 1962, the Ethan Allen would make the only submarine launch of a live nuclear warhead, conducting an atmospheric hydrogen bomb test at a site 1,000 miles (1,600 km) away.[64]
  • Faced with a choice of two rival delegations claiming to represent the former Belgian Congo, one led by President Joseph Kasavubu, the other by Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba, the United Nations General Assembly voted 53–24 in favor of seating Kasavubu's group. Nineteen nations abstained. The vote effectively ended Lumumba's power in the Congo, and he would be arrested and killed two months later.[73]

  • In the Dominican Republic, three of the Mirabal sisters— Patria, Minerva, and Maria Teresa, outspoken opponents of dictator Rafael Trujillo, were killed along with their driver, Rufino de la Cruz, in what the government described as an "automobile accident". When it was discovered that the four had been shot to death before their car was dumped into a ravine, on orders from Trujillo himself, public opinion turned against the dictator. Trujillo was assassinated six months later. The Mirabal sisters, popularly known as "Las Mariposas", were later the subject of the Julia Alvarez novel and the film adaptation, In the Time of the Butterflies. November the 25th is observed annually as "White Ribbon Day" in recognition of the sisters and other victims of violence against women.[78]
  • The last four daytime radio dramas—Young Dr. Malone, The Right to Happiness, The Second Mrs. Burton and Ma Perkins, all broadcast on the CBS Radio Network—were brought to an end.
