Here's a look at some that helped to shape the world in September 1923. • New York Yankees pitcher 'Sad Sam' Jones pitches a no- hitter against the Philadelphia Athletics on September 4. In addition to getting no hits, the Athletics players also went the entire game without striking out. The Athletics also would be no- hit by Boston Red Sox pitcher Howard Ehmke on September 7. • The International Criminal Police Commission is founded on September 7 in Vienna. Later known as Interpol, the organization maintains a presence in much of the world today. • The Irish Free State, established in December 1922, is admitted to the League of Nations on September 10.

Walton is ultimately impeached on October 23 before being removed from office on November 18. • Nearly 600 houses and 56 additional buildings are destroyed by a wildfire in Berkeley, California, on September 17.
