Friday November 29, 1935

(This is an entry from the journal entitled “Mexico Summer” written by Elizabeth Whipple Lancaster Carsey 80-years-ago)

Slept until 7!  School as usual. Told my 8-sections something about Mexico.  Visited with Pete and Velma.  Alyce Claire, Sam and I went over for awhile.  Same had dates gotten by Vernie Rose or Dee Zimmerman – Popular boy.

Here’s what else was happening 80-years-ago today:

60 people drowned when two ferries capsized in the Chinese province of Jiangsu.

The China Clipper completed its 8,000-mile flight, landing in Manila.

At the urging of King George II, Greece announced an amnesty for those involved in the March coup d’état attempt
