first presidential election after the<br />

war and the first since Roosevelt’s<br />

death. The election of 1948 still<br />

commands the imagination of the<br />

nation. A feisty Truman ran and<br />

won a fabled upset victory over<br />

Governor Thomas Dewey. On<br />

the morning after the election, a<br />

grinning Truman held over his<br />

head for all to see the headline of<br />

the Chicago Tribune “Dewey Defeats<br />

Truman.”<br />

The Boston Molasses Flood,<br />

Thursday, June 16, 1 p.m.<br />

In the early afternoon of January<br />

15, 1919, a fifty-foot steel tank<br />

filled with over two million gallons<br />

of molasses collapsed in Boston’s<br />

North End sending its sticky contents<br />

in a fifteen-foot wave through<br />

the neighborhood streets. The disaster<br />

was blamed on immigrant<br />

anarchists. The event knocked<br />

Prohibition and the end of World<br />

War I out of the headlines and resulted<br />

in a huge civil law suit that<br />

was not resolved until 1925.<br />
