U.S. Surgeon General Luther Terry released the first report of the Advisory Committee on Smoking and Health.

U.S. Surgeon General Luther Terry knew his report was a bombshell. He intentionally chose to release it on January 11, 1964, a Saturday, so as to
limit its immediate effects on the stock market. It was on this date that, on
behalf of the U.S. Government, Terry announced a definitive link between
smoking and cancer.

Girl Scouts of the United States of America (GSUSA),
commonly referred to as simply Girl Scouts, is a youth
organization for girls in the United States and American
girls living abroad. Founded by Juliette Gordon Low in
1912, it was organized after Low met Robert Baden-
Powell, the founder of Scouting, in 1911.Upon returning
to Savannah, Georgia, she telephoned a distant cousin,
saying, "I’ve got something for the girls of Savannah,
and all of America, and all the world, and we’re going to
start it tonight! The Girl Scout activity most familiar may
be the annual sale of Girl Scout Cookies, which started
in 1917 as a money-earning opportunity for councils
and troops.
