De Soto presents Groucho Marx in You Bet Your Life.
Committed to a state mental institution on this date in 1959 was Louisiana's sitting governor, Earl K. Long!! He spent 8 - 9 days there in Mandeville. Even more interesting is how he got out. His attorney determined that no law prevented a governor in a mental institution from having authority. So Gov. Long convened a meeting of the state hospital board (his appointees), who fired the director of the state hospital system and installed a physician crony of Long as new director. The new director immediately fired the head of the Mandeville hospital where Long was being held and appointed another crony as head of that unit. That new head then declared Long sane and ordered him released. COOL!!! AND LEGAL. Immediately before this Long had been held for two weeks in an institution in Galveston and the whole story is fascinating. You can't make this stuff up!! http://www.insidenorthside.com/oct_nov03/art11.htm
De Soto was a really nice car back in the day. It was a step above Plymouth and just a step down from Chrysler.
I wish the buck stopped here; I sure could use a few.![]()
