Model T goes on sale, first american superhighway opens, People's Republic of China created by Mao, Gorbachov becomes head of state in USSR, the Honeymooners premiered, Yosemite national park created, South Vietnam formally asked for our help getting us more involved in the war, and JP Morgan gives aid to the US to bail it out of a depression. Not much happened :)
