ON THIS DAY

In 1985, the Supreme Court struck down an Alabama law that permitted a daily one-minute period of silent meditation or prayer in public schools. The 6-3 decision reaffirmed the court's insistence that "government must pursue a course of complete neutrality toward religion."

In 1989, tens of thousands of riot-equipped soldiers marched toward Beijing's Tiananmen Square, where pro-democracy students had been demonstrating for weeks in defiance of martial law.

In 1992, more than 400 economists, including seven Nobel laureates, signed a statement opposing an amendment to the Constitution requiring a balanced federal budget.
