LOOKING BACK

1915: a new version of the Ku Klux Klan, targeting blacks, Jews, Catholics and immigrants, was founded by William Joseph Simmons.

1961: the first nuclearpowered aircraft carrier, USS Enterprise, was commissioned.

1963: the body of President John F. Kennedy was laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery; his widow, Jacqueline, lighted an “eternal flame” at the gravesite.
