I thought this was an interesting bit of information. The front page of the newspaper on July 26, 1963
had an article about a speaker invited for a Labor Day event. That person was
James (Jimmy) Hoffa – considered to be the blunt spoken, controversial boss of
the world’s largest labor union. The business agent for the Minot Teamsters
Union sent a telegram inviting Hoffa to be the speaker at the September 2nd
event. He was optimistic that he would
attend if his schedule permitted…. As far as I know he did not attend but I may
be mistaken about that…..
