FIRST MESSAGE TO
WORLD BY RADIO

Washington, Nov. 5.-"That the
| peace which bleses our own land may
presently become the fortune of all
lands and peoples is the earnest hope
of the American nation" President
Harding declared this afternoon in
the first worldwide radio message in
history
The President opened a switch at
the white house, which set in opera
ton the radio station at Jerson, L. l.
with worldwide transmitting power.
After opening the switch which set
the station in operation, the President
dictated the following mission:
ITO be able to transmit a mes
sage by radio in expectation that it
may reach every radio station in
the world, is so marvellous a scienti-
fic and technical achievement as to
justify special recognition. It af-
lords peculir qualification that such
a message, from the chef executive
of the United States Of America, may
be received in every land from every
sky, by peoples with whom our ma
ton is at peace and amity. That this
happy situation may ever continue,
and that the peace that blesses our
own land may presently become the
fortune of all lands and peoples, is
the earnest hope of the American ma
ton"

and asked to go to a certain place to
see very sick woman. Being sus-

Failing in this, the would-be as

mobile and tried to entice him from
the house. When calls for assistance,
promptly responded to, a large crowd
drove the would-be assassin off.

INTER LEAGUE BASEBALL SERIES.
 IN FULL s WING.
Americans and Nationals Crossing Bats in South
 And Southwest.

NEW YORK, March 11.-Inter League spring exhibition games be- tween the clubs of the major cir cults are in full swing, giving base ball fans their first opportunity to compare the relative strength of the rival pennant combinations. The de- velCpment of this feature of the southland training expeditions has been marked advance during recent seasons. The schedules show that big percentage of the 16 clubs, composing the National and Ameri can leagues. will play such con tests previous to the opening of the 1921 pennant races.
 A study of the ante-season dates of the major league teams indicates a list of 70 such games scheduled and with favorable weather during March and the early part of April, fully tvo-thirds of these contests will probably be played. A large majority are carded for the South :.nd Southwest, although several of the clubs will complete their spring training with a series of home games just before the opening of the regular season.
 The exhibition schedule opened with q contest between the Phila delphia Americans and the St. Louis Nationals at Houston, Tex, last Saturday and for the next five weeks, one or more such events are scheduled for decision each day. Two city series are involved, for the St. Louis and the Philadelphia clubs will each figure in games on their home grounds just before the opening of the pennant chase.
