Background:
On June 30, 1958, The Anchorage Times ran the shortest front page banner in its history: WE'RE IN. No one had to ask what it meant. At about 2 p.m. that day the message reached Anchorage that after six days of debate, the United States Senate had voted 64-20 to add Alaska as the 49th state.
