Actually she was his Granddaughter, not niece.

Susan was played by Carole Ann Ford

Plus - cos I'm sad - the first companions were Barbara & Ian (no idea of who played them)

Apparently

On Thursday, January 31, 1957, the Canadian Parliament proclaimed:
“ A Day of General Thanksgiving to Almighty God for the bountiful harvest with which Canada has been blessed – to be observed on the 2nd Monday in October. ”

Since 1971, Thanksgiving in Canada has coincided with the observance of Columbus Day in the United States.

On September 21, 1970, the first ever Monday Night Football game was played on ABC. Which were the 1st two teams to play on Monday Night Football? Extra credit if you can say who won & by what score. Double extra credit if you can name the stadium that hosted the game.

Cleveland Browns hosted New York Jets. But the stadium was known by several different names.
Cleveland Municipal Stadium, and Lakefront Stadium was the most common names.
Cleveland won, but I don't remember by how much, or the score.

Excellent job who???, you nailed it! I'm even giving you the extra credit! The final score was the Browns winning 31-21 on an interception of a Joe Nameth pass for a TD in the final minute (someone actually uploaded the game in 19 pieces to YouTube....so I just watched the beginning & the end). Anyway, very impressive who??? & great job!

Since you named the Presidents, I'll give you credit. Technically it's Jefferson CITY (Missouri, Jackson (Mississippi), Lincoln (Nebraska), and Madison (Wisconsin).

Great job & kudos to you Paul!

Taking a wild stab, I would say Hawaii during WWII.
I know we made special bills that said Hawaii on the back in case the Japanese took the islands.
