Extra, extra, read all about it.
In 1603 – Queen Elizabeth I of England dies at Richmond Palace southwest of London of an illness History has never identified. What is now known as the Elizabethan Era began when she assumed the throne in 1558, an era perhaps most famous for the theater it produced. She was succeeded by King James VI of Scotland, who took the throne as King James I of England and Ireland and reigned until 1625.
In 1973 – Nate Archibald of the Kansas City-Omaha Kings becomes the first NBA player to win scoring and assist titles in the same season following a 110-98 loss to the Detroit Pistons. Archibald averaged 34 points per game and 11.4 assists, and his 46 minutes played per game led the league as well. In 1967-68, Oscar Robertson had led the NBA in points and assists per game, but did not win the titles because it was then based on the total number of points and assists nd not the per-game average.
In 1979 – The Bee Gees are at #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 for the first of two consecutive weeks with Tragedy. The song also went to #1 in seven other countries, including Italy and Great Britain, peaked at #44 on Billboard’s soul chart, and was their 16th-biggest song of the year. It was the eighth of nine #1 songs for the group, all in the 1970s, the most of any act that decade.
