For extra credit, who got the patent and when?

WAG
A hybrid fruit tree? Maybe a seedless orange?
II believe it was
a good year for Los Angeles, Cubs, and Edwin Land, but especially this date not Charles Lindbergh.
Re: II believe it was
I'll let you know as soon as I figure out what you said;-)
Some of your answers are as much fun as the trivia questions themselves.
Opps, No wonder. If
I got the year correct it was a bad year for the Cubs
That really doesn't help....
....as every year is a bad year for the Cubs. ;-)

OK, I go off on so many tangents
I ought to better understand trigonometry (and/or plane geometry). My intent was to call attention only to the year of patent--1932. That year LA hosted the Olympics, the Cubs lost the World Series 0-4 to the Yankees, Edwin Land formed the Land-Wheelright Laboratory, the pre cursor company which eventually became Polariod, and the Lindbergh baby was taken from his home on March 1, 1932. I was only going after the year, but since the question is still live I also believe it to be a fruit tree which is ______ keen. In my answer, the patent holder's last name (which I confess I did do a sesarch for) starts with an "M". Of course, all of this is useless if I'm wrong-again.
