On This Day
On this day, they got Al Capone, Einstein fled the facists, and a World Series game got off to a shaky start. Locally, a new event that’s still with us today was getting it’s start, and ND Senator Langer who was facing trial yesterday was warning us about pay per view television 17 years later. Also, we were still delivering Blue Ribbon hunting experiences.
