History 6/1/43; Leslie Howard—Ashley in Gone with the Wind—was killed. While doing an appearance in Spain & on the flight home his plane was shot down by German fighters. He was such an effective propagandist that when German agents learned his sked they sent the interceptors just to get him.

History: 5/21/53-Lillian Hellman testified before the HUAC but didnt name names. “I cannot cut my conscience to fit the fashions of the day.” Elia Kazan ratted her out to save his own ass. She escaped a contempt of Congress but was blacklisted & was working the makeup counter at I Magnin dept store.

Sept. 24th-
Hey Roman Emperor Vitellius, your massive chins tell me that you could use lots of birthday cake! So, go for it! 'Tis your birthday!
Even though you only ruled for a short time--about eight months--you're still the ruler of this day.
Happy Birthday!
