This Week in History Sept. 26.1983 Declaring that a nuclear war can not be won and must never be fought, Pres. Ronald Reagan offered to make new proposals to limit medium-range nudear weapons in Europe and chal- •lenged the Soviet Union to make comparable concessions toward an agreement. Reagan told the U.N. Gen eral Assembly that if the Soviet make concesslonsof th6irown,theU.S. wfll consider a new ceUing on the number of U.S. missUes in Europe. Sept. 27,1988 Six North-vfest Little League teams, which have withdrawn from the Da vidson County Parks and Recreation program, played football and the East Central teams voted to join them to avoid the chaos of litigation involving the county's eligjbUity rules, A law suit, filed in District Court in Lexing ton Sept 23 on behalf of 12-year-old Charles Payne, charged the county’s eliglbUlty ^es treated some 12-year- olds unfairly. The county program was for chUdren ages 9 to 11, however the county had an exception for sixth graders who turned 12 before the Oct 16 cutoff period. 'These students could play if they started kindergarten late, but if they started school on time and repeated a grade, they weren’t allowed to participate. The eMgibUlty excep tion was abolished in 1986 due to the problems it caused the department but players already in the county league were covered by a grandfather clause and aUowed to play under the exeeption. Sept. 28,1999 With three months remaining, 1999 was named the deadliest year on America’s death row in almost half a century up to that point. Eighteen states executed 76 killers, and the to tal was projected to reach 100 by the year’s end. *, Sepl. 28,2010 Tuesday Mostly Sunny 80/59 Wednesday Partly Cloudy 80/60 Thursday Mostly Sunny 81/61 Friday Mostly Sunny 79/59 Saturday Sunny 77/56 Sunday Mostly Sunny 80/58 ' What is a tornado O family? i Monday uaaiodns 0|6u!s e Aq poonpotid Partly Cloudy saopetuoi jo souas v :j3SSuv 78/59 Sun/Moon Chart This Week .Around the State Forec Day Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Last 9/30 Sunrise 7:13 a.m. 7:13 a.m. 7:14 a.m. 7:15 a.m. 7:16 a.m. 7:17 a.m. 7:17 a.m. Sunset 7:09 p.m. 7:07 p.m. 7:06 p.m. 7:04 p.m. 7:03 p.m. 7:01 p.m. 7:00 p.m. New 10/7 Moonrise 10:08 p.m. 11:03 p.rn.
