NEWS INTRO

"IN today's news, a cat was rescued after being in a tree for over a week and was then fed spaghetti. The cat attempted to flee from firefighters, ending up even higher up on the tree. Rescuers said it took three attempts before they were finally able to reach it with a ladder. Once back on the ground, the firefighters gave the cat some water and spaghetti. Today in history, on March 15, 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson addresses a joint session of Congress to urge the passage of legislation guaranteeing voting rights for all.
