Report by Bill Levinson, SD Chapter

Scholars at UC Davis made a startling discovery last month when they stumbled upon documents indicating that North Dakota, a strip of land occupying 70,762 square miles directly between Canada and South Dakota, was part of the United States.  The news came as a shock to virtually everyone ... everyone except for the nearly 1400 residents of the State.  Roger Martin, Dean of American Studies at UC Davis, announcing the find at a recent press conference, said, “We have uncovered definitive proof that North Dakota is indeed the lost State.”
