On this day: October 30
Orson Welles broadcasts "The War of the Worlds," buffalo wings are born, Ali and Foreman square off in the "Rumble in the Jungle," and Michael Jordan returns to the NBA, all on this day.
1918: Aboard the British battleship HMS Agamemnon, anchored in the port of Mudros on the Aegean island of Lemnos, representatives of Great Britain and the Ottoman Empire sign an armistice treaty marking the end of Ottoman participation in World War I. Although the Ottoman Empire had initially intended to stay neutral in the conflict, it ultimately aligned with Germany and entered the war in October 1914.
