Question

I've been looking all over google and I can't find anything good to write about. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Well what interests You - - - find what interests You and they you zero in on that topic and check out those years // obvious examples, ya like football what was football between 1933 and 35. Do ya like drooling over hot studly actors or lust for sultry screen sirens, again zero in and seek. That is my humble advice, you will only find interesting things if things of interest to you are in the mix (nothing personal, most people are that way that is why I trot out this lecture now and then)..

First Night.
At 5:32 P.M. EST on 5 December 1933, the "noble experiment" called Prohibition came to an end when the state of Utah became the thirty-sixth state to ratify the Twenty-first Amendment to the Constitution. The amendment, which had been passing feverishly through state legislatures across the country since 10 April, repealed the Eighteenth Amendment (1919), which had barred sales and consumption of alcohol nationwide for nearly fourteen years. As expected, there was dancing in the streets, but only a little dancing. The police in Los Angeles and New York had put their entire forces on call to combat the anticipated celebrations, but Prohibition passed away more quietly than expected. Both The New York Times and the Los A?igeles Times reported subdued celebration, though patrons of the St. Moritz Hotel in New York did dance their way single file to the lake in Central Park for a symbolic drowning of Old Man...

Sorry to pick on Utah but here is an air crash

""Salt Lake City, Utah Plane Crash
February 23, 1934
SHOCKING DISASTER

One of the worst and most tragic air disasters in the history of western air navigation was the crash of the United airliner last Friday, and later the finding of the wrecked plane near the summit of Parley's canyon, supposedly in Salt Lake county, and the awfully mangled remains of eight persons.

The cause of the crash is at present a mystery and likely will ever remain so, for the huge plane, one of the biggest and best of airships, had only left the air port in Salt Lake some twenty minutes before it crashed into the mountain side, burying its nose through five feet of snow and three feet of hard frozen ground, instantly killing and crushing into a shapeless mass the five passengers, the pilot, co-pilot and stewardess. From those who witnessed the crash report the horror of the sight as indescribable.

When news was flashed to Park City Sunday afternoon that the lost plane had been located, hundreds of Park City people rushed to the scene, and despite the deep snows, difficult climbing thru tangled brush and pine trees, etc. succeeded in reaching the scene, experiencing the thrill of viewing the monster wreck and the mangled mass of humanity jammed therein. And during the entire week, crowds of Summit county people as well as Salt Lake and other counties, make daily pilgrimages to see what is left of the great wreck. A well beaten path from the Lincoln highway on the summit to the scene, makes it comparatively easy – a distance of some two miles from the road.

County Attorney McDONOUGH and Coroner GREEN were among the first to reach the scene, the latter taking charge, but later Salt Lake county officials took charge and the bodies removed to Salt Lake.

The list of the dead follows:
LLOYD ANDERSON, of Cheyenne, pilot.
ERIC DANIELSON, Cheyenne, co-pilot.
MARY CARTER, Salt Lake, stewardess.
E. L. WALKER, of Rock Springs, Wyoming, automobile dealer.
J. J. STERLING, Benton Harbor, Michigan, mayor and attorney.
MARCELLUS ZINSMASTER, Des Moines, Iowa, bakery official.
BERT McLAUGHLIN, Perry, Iowa, grocer.
E. W. BERGLUND, Boone, Iowa, post commander, American Legion.

The passengers were all prominent, well-to-do citizens of their respective communities.

After one of the many searching planes had signaled from the air that the lost plane had been located, people from this section immediately busied themselves in getting to the spot. Those who happened to be at Ecker's Hill, near Gogorza, were the first arriving near where the plane had been seen by the air men. LINDEN FEHRSON, FRANK RASMUSSON and JIM RASMUSSON, of Gogorza, being the first to get in the close vicinity. LINDEN FEHRSON being the first one to see the plane – and he with the RASMUSSON'S the first to commence the work of getting out the managled [sic] victims.

With the crowds going to the scene after the wreck had been located, many women struggled through the snow and up the mountain sides to see what was to be seen – and to get the thrill of the gruesome sight. MISSES MAY KIDDER, high school girl, and KATHARINE MARAN, both of Park City, have the distinction of being the first ladies to reach the “horror spot.”

And tying in with modern concerns about abducted children, the Lindberg Baby Kidnapping Trial in 1935
http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/Hauptmann/Hauptmann.htm
""The case against Hauptmann kept building. On September 24, 1934, Hauptmann stood before a New York magistrate to hear that he stood accused of extorting $50,000 from Charles Lindbergh and would be held on $100,000 bail. Two weeks later in the Hunterdon County Courthouse in Flemington, New Jersey, twenty-three grand jurors unanimously voted to indict Hauptmann for the murder of the Lindbergh baby. New York agreed to extradite Hauptmann to stand trial in New Jersey. An opening date for the trial was set: January 2, 1935.

By New Years Day, Flemington overflowed with 700 hundred reporters, thousands of curious spectators, and hundreds of communications technicians. Celebrities such as Walter Winchell, Arthur Brisbane, Damon Runyon, and Jack Benny began arriving in town for the trial. Vendors hawked miniature kidnap ladders, locks "of the Lindbergh baby's hair," and photographs of Charles Lindbergh.

At ten o'clock the next day, Judge Thomas Trenchard, a seventy-one-year-old, well-respected jurist, took his seat on the bench. Bruno Hauptmann, followed by a state trooper, entered the courtroom and took his seat next to his lawyer, fifty-two-year-old Edward J. Reilly, a hard drinking man known as the "Bull of Brooklyn." Colonel Lindbergh walked briskly through the courtroom door and was greeted by prosecutor David Wilentz, the Attorney General of New Jersey. Judge Trenchard ordered that 48 names of prospective jurors be drawn from a box containing 150 names. The "trial of the century" (or at least one of them) was underway. """

That is enough pontificating have a successful project.

Write about Seabiscut
Seabiscuit (May 23, 1933—May 17, 1947) was a champion thoroughbred race horse in the United States. From an inauspicious start, Seabiscuit became an unlikely champion and a symbol of hope to many US citizens during the Great Depression. Seabiscuit became the subject of a 2001 book (Seabiscuit: An American Legend), a 1949 film, The Story of Seabiscuit, and a more recent 2003 film, Seabiscuit, which was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.
