That was in 1936 It was renamed to Hoover Dam.

Because initially, it was going to be Boulder Dam. Then it was named Hoover Dam because they didn't want to, how do I put this kindly? They were concerned about people, you know, Herbert Hoover, it was not named after J. Edgar Hoover. No, it was named after President Herbert Hoover, who did not curry favor with the American people about some of the things he did in his administration.

Latin American guerrilla leader Shea Quivara executed on this date in 1967 while attempting to incite revolution in Bolivia. Well, three years earlier, he had told CBS News he was not responsible for revolution.

They had the chance to talk to many eyewitnesses, adults, as well as kids, policemen, school teachers, students, scientists, who had witnessed similar or even differently shaped UFOs.
