30 October 1938 - MARTIAN SPACESHIPS LAND IN GROVER'S MILL, NEW JERSEY:
An Intercontinental Radio News bulletin interrupts regularly scheduled
music programming, alerting listeners to a meteor strike in rural New
Jersey. What follows is nothing less than a Martian invasion cooked up
by the fiendishly clever Orson Welles and his Mercury Theatre players.

The episode is famous for inciting a panic by convincing some members of
the listening audience that a Martian invasion was taking place, though
the scale of panic is disputed, as the program had relatively few
listeners.

The episode begins with an introductory monologue based closely on the
opening of the original novel, after which the program takes on the
format of an evening of typical radio programming being periodically interrupted by news bulletins. The first few bulletins interrupt a
program of live music and are relatively calm reports of unusual
explosions on Mars followed by a seemingly unrelated report of an
unknown object falling on a farm in Grovers Mill, New Jersey. The crisis escalates dramatically when a correspondent reporting live from Grovers
Mill describes creatures emerging from what is evidently an alien
spacecraft. When local officials approach the aliens waving a flag of
truce, the "monsters" respond by incinerating them and others nearby
with a heat ray which the on-scene reporter describes in a panic until
the audio feed abruptly goes dead. This is followed by a rapid series of
news updates detailing the beginning of a devastating alien invasion and
the military's futile efforts to stop it. The first portion of the
episode climaxes with a live report from a rooftop in Manhattan, from
where a correspondent describes citizens fleeing in panic from giant
Martian "war machines" releasing clouds of poison smoke until he coughs
and falls silent. Only then does the program take its first break, about
thirty minutes after Welles's introduction.

01 November 1938 - SEABISCUIT DEFEATS WAR ADMIRAL: 'The Match of the
Century' pits the small and scrappy thoroughbred racehorse Seabiscuit
against the regal Triple Crown-winner War Admiral. Seabiscuit beats the favorite by four lengths and will be named the American Horse of the
Year.

Seabiscuit (May 23, 1933 _ May 17, 1947) was a champion thoroughbred
racehorse in the United States who became the top money-winning
racehorse up to the 1940s. He beat the 1937 Triple Crown winner, War
Admiral, by four lengths in a two-horse special at Pimlico and was voted American Horse of the Year for 1938.

A small horse, at 15.2 hands high,[1] Seabiscuit had an inauspicious
start to his racing career, winning only a quarter of his first 40
races, but became an unlikely champion and a symbol of hope to many
Americans during the Great Depression.
