Noel Neill is
born.
She is best known as her
portrayal of Lois Lane in the film serials Superman (1948) and Atom
Man vs. Superman (1950), and
on the 1950s television series Adventures of Superman.The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is an
annual parade presented by the U.S.-based department store chain Macy's.
The tradition started in
1924, tying it for the second-oldest Thanksgiving parade in the United
States with America's Thanksgiving Parade in Detroit (with both parades
being four years younger than the 6abc Dunkin'
Donuts Thanksgiving Day Parade in Philadelphia). The three-hour Macy's event is held in New York City starting
at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on Thanksgiving Day, and has been televised nationally on NBC since 1952.
The parade was suspended
from 1942 to 1944 as a result of World War II, owing to
the need for rubber and helium in the war effort. The parade resumed in
1945 using the route that it followed until 2008. The parade became known
nationwide after being prominently featured in the 1947 film, Miracle on 34th Street, which included footage of the 1946
festivities. The event was first broadcast on network television in 1948 (see below). By this
point the event, and Macy's sponsorship of it, were sufficiently well-known to
give rise to the colloquialism "Macy's Day Parade". Since 1984, the
balloons have been made by Raven Aerostar (a
division of Sioux Falls, South Dakota-based Raven Industries).
