• Good morning everyone, please stand for the pledge of allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. Please be seated. Welcome back to another edition of TETV Morning News. Today is Monday, November 2.
   

• It’s time for “this date in history.”  On November 2, 1889, North and South Dakota joined the union as the 39th and 40th states, respectively.  On November 2, 1902, former race car driver Andrew Riker drove the first production model, 4-cylinder, gasoline-powered car engineered and manufactured in Bridgeport, Connecticut to its new owner in New York City.  The car was designed by the Locomobile Company who used the motto “the Best Built Car in America” to describe the luxury vehicle.  It, however, became a niche vehicle that could only be afforded by the wealthy.  By 1929, the company was already suffering and when the Stock Market crashed, so did the company by the end of that year.   On November 2, 1983, President Ronald Reagan signed a bill designating the third Monday in January a national holiday in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.  Famous birthdays on this date include the 11th President James Polk and the 29th President Warren Harding.  Thanks for listening to this date in history. 

• CougarTHON is back and ready to make a difference in children's health!
