Each of the following events happened on September 15. Your challenge is to put them in the order in which they occurred by year, earliest to latest. Answers at the bottom!

• A) The Lone Ranger, originally a radio series, debuts on TV with Clayton Moore as the renegade lawman and Jay Silverheels as Tonto.
• B) Boxer Muhammad Ali defeats Leon Spinks at the Superdome in New Orleans to win his third career world heavyweight boxing title, the first fighter ever with that distinction.
• C) Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons earn their first No. 1 hit with “Sherry,” four weeks after the song’s release. The band would go on to earn two other No. 1 hits in the next six months, becoming the only US group ever with three consecutive chart toppers.
• D) The Nuremberg race laws are enacted in Nazi Germany, depriving Jews of German citizenship and forbidding marriage or sexual relations between Jews and “citizens of German or kindred blood.”

Hint: The Lone Ranger and Tanto were a dynamic duo
