From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   Dartmouth BASIC
  
      The original {BASIC} language, designed by John
      G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz at Dartmouth College in 1963.
      Dartmouth BASIC first ran on a {GE 235} [date?] and on an {IBM
      704} on 1964-05-01.   It was designed for quick and easy
      programming by students and beginners using Dartmouth's
      experimental {time-sharing} system.   Unlike most later BASIC
      dialects, Dartmouth BASIC was compiled.
