WQLN NPR first signed on the air in 1973, and on February 20th of that year – George Pulakos, the deputy secretary for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, vehemently denied that it would be his decision on whether or not a controversial I-79 interchange would be built at West 38th Street.

This Day in History is presented by Chronicles on WQLN PBS.
