Show Notes
In 1976, Gonzaga University students chose Hubert Humphrey and Edmund Brown as their Democratic presidential candidates, advocating for progressive policies like abortion rights and marijuana decriminalization. Humphrey won on the fifth ballot after supporters switched from Senator Henry Scoop Jackson. Meanwhile, in 1926, a cinnamon bear escaped from Natatorium Park, leading to its tragic death after being shot by park authorities.
