The Original Dixieland Jass Band (an all-white group) made what's generally regarded as the first commercial jazz recording, "Dixie Jass Band One-Step" and "Livery Stable Blues," in New York for the Victor label. In 1942, "How Green Was My Valley" won the Academy Award for best picture of 1941, beating out nine other films, including "The Maltese Falcon" and "Citizen Kane"; Gary Cooper was named best actor for "Sergeant York," while Joan Fontaine was recognized as best actress for "Suspicion." In 1945, authorities ordered a midnight curfew at nightclubs, bars and other places of entertainment across the nation. In 1962, after becoming the first American to orbit the Earth, astronaut John Glenn told a joint meeting of Congress, "Exploration and the pursuit of knowledge have always paid dividends in the long run." In 1987, the Tower Commission, which investigated the Iran-Contra affair, issued a report rebuking President Ronald Reagan for failing to control his national security staff. In 1993, a truck bomb built by terrorists exploded in the parking garage of New York's World Trade Center, killing six people and injuring more than 1,000 others. Iraq's Shiite vice president, Adel Abdul-Mahdi (ah-DEEL' AHB'-dool-MAH'-dee), narrowly escaped death as a blast ripped through a government meeting hall just hours after it had been searched by U.S.
