"' -1 'i - ; - " : Feat Haled as Unparalleled Achievement in News Gathering NE WYORK, Dec. 31. ( AP) A greetinp from the New Year 1927, flung by radio 10,000 miles across the world into the teeth of time, was received by the Associ ated Press in New York where 1927 had almost 17 hours still to run. The feat was hailed as an un paralleled achievement both in news gathering and marine radio communication by David Sarnoff, general manager of .the Radio cor poration of America, whose coop eration made possible the ex change of greetings .Between the two years and the two sides of the earth. , Early today the Associated Press sent a greeting to a score of world tourists on the Gunard liner Carinthia in Cook strait, New Zealand. Because of the difference in time, the message, although de livered almost instantaneously, was received on the Carinthia as the passengers were celebrating New Year's Eve. As the old year died across the world and the new was born, the passengers sent a return greeting to New York, received here at 7:24 a. m., December 31, almost 17 hours "before it was sent." The feat, Mr. Sarnoff told the Associated Press, "is more than an acomplishment in direct com- municatioji over a distance of half the worlds's surface. It is in real ity the circumnavigation of the globe by radio throuEh the medi um of short wave communication, for radio waves travel in all di rections. EARTHQUAKE RECORDED One Instrument of Seismograph Dismantle! by Shock MINERAL,"' "Cat, Dec. 31. (AP) A lively earthquake hav ing Its. source In Mount Lassen, was recorded in the volcano ob servatory here today. There were a series of quakes, the strongest preceded by a rumble and of suf ficient intensity to dismantle one of the instruments of the seismo graph. Michigan has the only state constitution with a provision for university. The University ot Michigan was established when the territory became a state in 1837.

' Over Skating Stars KILE SHEEP CLAIM FOR 40 DAMAGES IS FILED, HEAVIEST RECORDED Bedded down in an enclosure on the old Hensel place, 84 of the sheep owned by J. E. Parrish of Jefferson were attacked by one or more canines, either dog or wolf. The Hensel place is about a inlle east of Marion and the claim for the value of these sheep was filed yesterday with the Marion county court." - j " - Bert Smith, deputy, sheriff who accompanied members of the county court to the Hensel place, declared that 50 of the sheep were dead and the 'remaining 34 would die without proper attention. The sheep were confined' by the pen in which they were bedded down and the attacking animal was for that reason able to make one of the heaviest raids that have come to the attention of the court. In Marion county the proceeds from the dog taxes are : made use of to pay the claims of owners whose stock are killed by dogs. This claim, amounts to $840, the largest on record. It will make a considerable inroad on the fund should the county court allow the entire claim. Claims for sheep killed last month aggregated $400, Judge Hunt said yesterday, but this amount was distributed among some 2Q claims made on from one to 10 sheep.

(AP) President and 4 Mrs. Cool idge lent a hand tonight in the nation's farewell to the old year and its greeting to the new one. Quietly; in the seclusion of the White House, they awaited mid night to offer a solemn, impres sive touch to the noisy New Year's Eve celebration which had been gathering momentum here throughout the evening. They had enlisted the aid of five marines a trumpeter, and four trombone players in work ing out an innovation music from the roof of the White House at the stroke of twelve. The role of the marines called ! for them to stand on the highest part of the roof at the foot of the flagstaff with a spotlight trained on them and the flag fly ing overhead. From this point, the president and Mrs. Coolidge figured the musicians would be in plain view of the public in sur round ins streets and on the north lawn of the White House. Orders had been issued to keep the 'gates to ihe grounds open past midnight. Mrs. Coolidge is understood to have thought up the idea, and she had requested Arthur Witcomb, the bugler, to sound taps at mid night -and to follow it with rev eille. " After that the trombonists had been instructed to play Beethoven's "Creation" and Abt's "Over the Stars." The quintet had been told that the president and Mrs. Coolidge and their son, John, weuld listen to their playing in the library on the second floor of the executive mansion. In striking contrast with the simple ceremony at the White House and services held in most of the churches of the city was the rollicking celebration which got under way early in hotels. clubs and other public gathering places. Tomorrow being a holiday, gov ernment business will be at a standstill, although it is likely that President Coolidge will spend an hour or two In the morning in his office going over mail. Be ginning at 11 a. m. he and Mrs. Coolidge will hold . the annual White House New Year's recep-. tion. For an hour and a hajf they will receive diplomats, members of the cabinet, the judiciary and congress, heads of government bureaus, army and navy officers and patriotic organizations. After a thirty minute luncheon rest, they will again establish a receiving line for the general pub lic. The doors will be open to all wo t.xi wi.t ue ereeieu by a handshake by both the pres- fvs ' : ''.'.' New National League Managers '" .-..
