English: Marjorie Moehlenkamp, 21 year old singer, receives a congratulatory kiss from Hal Fredericks of KXOK, The Star-Times station, as she was announced yesterday as the winner of a talent contest held on connection with the St. Louis appearance of the American Broadcasting Co. network program, "Music With The Girls."
The newspaper publication notice, publishing data for the issue containing the article with the photo does not indicate a copyright. I confirmed that by looking it up in the Catalog of Copyright Entries. I checked two years, as it rolls in I think March. Then I searched through the volume, periodicals, for the name of the newspaper as it appears on the Masthead. Looking at 1950 and 1951 I confirmed there are no entries for the Star-Times though there are other items that contain St. Louis. In this case, there is no author given.
Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (50 p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 p.m.a.), Mexico (100 p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.
