Watched by a large crowd, the national athletics championships take place in Eindhoven. SHOTS: long jumping for men; hurdle races for women; pole jumping for men; 200m running for men (winner T. Osendarp).

During World War II the newsreels by film producers Polygoon and Profilti were controlled by the German occupiers. Polygoon and Profilti had to work together with the German film rental office Tobis. From January 1, 1941 the newsreels were therefore called Tobis News. Until the fall of 1944 newsreels under this name were produced alternately by Polygoon and Profilti.
