Countdown Underlines FHA Warning About Woven Employees
The FHA denies warning its woven employees that miniskirts can cause fat legs. They might not cause fat legs, but they sure can read to bulging eyes. The Justice Department reports that extremist activities have put a severe strain on it and that plans are under way to enlist the help of computers. If Uncle Sam has as much trouble enlisting computers as servicemen, the department is in for a lot more trouble.

Florida cession begins a new era for United States
In 1819 Florida was ceded to the United States by Spain, marking a significant change in territorial control. The year also notes Frank Woolworth opening a five cent store in Utica, N C amid slow initial sales, and a 1931 Miami effort by women to curb bootleggers. An earthquake in northeast Libya in 1963 claimed 250 lives. Ernest Hemingway offered a hopeful thought: the world is a fine place and worth fighting for.
