Today in History: November 14, Marshall University football team killed in plane crash
Today is Saturday, Nov. 14, the 318th day of 2026. There are 47 days left in the year. Today in history: On Nov. 14, 1970, a chartered Southern Airways plane crashed while trying to land in West Virginia, killing all 75 people on board, including the Marshall University football team and its coaching staff. Also on this date: In 1851, Herman Melville’s novel “Moby-Dick; Or, The Whale” was published in the United States, almost a month after being released in Britain. In 1889, journalist Nellie Bly began an attempt to travel around the world in 80 days; she would complete the journey in a little more than 72 days via ships, trains and other means of transport. In 1910, Eugene B. Ely became the first aviator to take off from a ship as his Curtiss “Pusher” biplane lifted off the deck of the cruiser USS Birmingham off Hampton Roads, Virginia. The flight by the civilian pilot marked the beginning of naval aviation. In 1940, during World War II, German bombing raids destroyed much of the English city of Coventry. In 1960, 6-year-old Ruby Bridges, under escort by federal marshals, became the first Black child to desegregate an all-white elementary school
