Some significant events that have happend on October 15th are: 1951- The t.v. show "I Love Lucy" makes its debut. I chose this because its a very big t.v. show that alot of people have watched. 1964- Craig Breedlove sets the auto speed record of 846.97 kph . I chose this topic because i love the sport of racing and this record was huge for the racing sport. 1988- The Oklahoma Sooners set the NCAA rushing yards record for one game (768 yards). Football is one of my favortie sports and that is amazing to put up those kind of numbers in one game. 1989- Wayne Gretzky passes Gordie Howe for the NHL's all time scorer. Wayne Gretzky was my favorite hockey player growing up and its big to hold the all time scoring in the NHL. 1990- The Soviet Union's president Mikhail Gorbachev wins Nobel Peace Prize. I chose this topic because wining a Nobel Peace Prize is not an easy thing to do.
