ON THIS DATE: In 1539, Hernando De Soto claimed Florida for Spain. In 1621, the Dutch West India Company received a charter for New Netherlands (now known as New York). In 1800, John Adams, the second president of the United States, became the first president to reside in Washington, D.C., when he took up residence at Union Tavern in Georgetown. In 1851, the New York Knickerbockers became the first baseball team to wear uniforms. In 1932, Lou Gehrig set a major league baseball record when he hit four consecutive home runs. In 1943, a group of U.S. sailors marched through downtown Los Angeles, carrying clubs and other makeshift weapons and attacking anyone wearing a “zoot suit”—the baggy wool pants, oversized coats and porkpie hats favored by many young men of color at the time. In 1959, the first class graduated from the Air Force Academy in Denver, Colorado. In 1965, 120 miles above the Earth, Major Edward H. White II opened the hatch of the Gemini 4 and stepped out of the capsule, becoming the first American astronaut to walk in space. In 1989, Chinese army troops positioned themselves to begin a sweep of Beijing to crush student-led pro-democracy demonstrations in Tiananmen Square. In 2017, the Amazing World of Dr. Seuss Museum opened in Springfield, Massachusetts.
