When White took his turn to speak to the students, he was introduced as Dr. White. “I won t for a million years get used to being called doctor,” said the 34-year-old astronaut. Officials of the Alamo city officially set aside today as “Ed White Day' and it begins at 10 a.m. CST when White and his family arrive at San Antonio s International Airport. One of the first spots on the Whites' tour of the city will be old Station Hospital, located at sprawling Ft. Sam Houston on the city’s northeast side. It was in this hospital that White was born on Nov. 14, 1930. At that time, the hospital was the main Army hospital in the Southwest, but now houses the deputy chief of staff for logistics,4th Army Headquarters. The inevitable motorcale was planned, leading from the airport. through the downtown streets to the Alamo. White will speak in front of the old mission, where 187 sharpshooters were massacred in 1836. The Alamo—defended -by the likes of Davy Crockett, j William Travis and Jim Bowie j—became the symbol of Texas j freedom. I White will place a wreath at 1 the Alamo in honor of those who died.
In 1883, the first night baseball game was played in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. When the last batter was out, the capacity crowd cheered, for they had seen night shut out! Seventeen arc lights, each equal to the light from 4,000 candles, illuminated the ball park. Today, nearly half of all baseball games are played at night under banks of lights that bring "daylight” to giant stadiums seating as many as 100,000 fans.
