if you use a database, you can simply add a field with true/false values. The records which are set true will be shown on the news page. False valued ones will be shown on the history pages.

But probably better would be to have a DATETIME field that marks when the article was added.
And then you can just show the most recent NN news items as current with all else being history.
MySQL: SELECT * FROM NewsItems ORDER BY NewsDate DESC LIMIT 10;
Other DBs: SELECT TOP 10 * FROM NewsItems ORDER BY NewsDate DESC;

What database are you using??
MySQL:
SELECT * FROM news WHERE articleDate >= DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 2 DAY);
Access:
SELECT * FROM news WHERE articleDate >= DATE()-2
SQL Server:
SELECT * FROM news WHERE articleDate >= ( CONVERT(DATETIME,CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),getDate(),112),112 ) - 2
