  • Babe Ruth quit the Boston Braves after an argument with team owner Emil Fuchs. Ruth wanted to attend an arrival party for the Normandie since he couldn't play anyway due to a knee injury, but Fuchs refused to give him a day off. Ruth said in his initial statement that he was retiring, but he then said he was merely taking a "60 day vacation" and would consider offers from any other teams made afterward. However, no offers would be made.[3][4][5]
  • Uruguayan President Gabriel Terra was shot by a former deputy from a rival party, Bernando Garcia, while visiting a race course. Although Garcia fired from close range, a bystander bumped his arm as he fired and the bullet merely grazed the president's leg. Garcia was swiftly arrested.[6]
