AB-Lancaster Farming, Saturday, Juna 24. 2000 —* June 28 —Heads Up! Henry VIII came into the world on June 28, 1509, and before long, women were losing their heads over him, as he discarded one wife after another in an attempt to gam an heir. The Church of England was not amused. Three centuries later, James Madison, fourth ■ident of the United States, died on is day in 1836, as did Mana Mitchell, imerica’s first female astronomer, in 1889. In 1914, two June 28 deaths prompted a world war, when heir to the Austrian throne. Archduke Ferdinand, and his wife, Sonja, were assassinated in Sarajevo. The result ing conflict with Serbia eventually led to World War I. On a lighter note, actor Mel Brooks (bom in 1926) and comedienne Gilda Radner (born in 1946) share this same birthday. “I’m out of my head over you ...” s’ To avoid sunstroke, wear a hat In the sun and drink lots of water.
