This Day in History: , Hank Aaron Breaks Babe Ruth’s
All-Time Home Run Record.
April 8, 1974.
Aaron hit his 715th home run
to earn the new record in front of
a crowd of 53,775 in Atlanta.
He hit the record-breaking homer
off a pitch from LA Dodgers' Al Downing.
The extraordinary achievement
would remain in place until 2007.
Aaron made his major league debut
with the Milwaukee Braves in 1954.
Over the span of his 23-year career,
Aaron played for the Braves in both Milwaukee and
Atlanta. He ended his career with the Milwaukee Brewers.
When he retired in 1976,
he had 755 home runs.
He was inducted into the
Baseball Hall of Fame in 1982

This Day in History:, FDR Signs the Beer
and Wine Revenue Act.
March 22, 1933.
After 14 years of Prohibition, the Beer and Wine Revenue
Act finally allowed the sale and government taxation of
alcoholic beverages with no more than 3.2% alcohol.
The act was part of FDR's New Deal,
a series of economic measures intended
to pull America out of The Great Depression.
It was one of his first actions as president.
Its passage signaled the repeal of the
18th Amendment and the Volstead Act,
which prohibited the sale of alcohol in the U.S.
While a victory for the powerful temperance
movement, Prohibition increased illegal trafficking
of alcohol. It had little effect on its consumption.
Later that year in December,
the 21st Amendment was passed,
bringing the era of Prohibition to an end
