John F. Kennedy Rice University speech...



Item # 712539

September 13, 1962

THE PRATT DAILY TRIBUNE, September 13, 1962

* John F. Kennedy JFK Rice University speech
* Race for space vs. Russia

* Going to the moon

The top of page 6 has a four column heading: "'We Will Be First', Says JFK" (see images)  I suspect this to be an rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
This was the famous speech in which he said: "We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard" which is not stated in the article.
Complete with 10 pages, small library stamp within the masthead, a little irregular along the spine, generally nice.
