Overseas telephone calls handled on Christmas Day through American Telephone and Telegraph Company radio stations in the United States set a record, both for volume and for the number of countries reached. A total of 342 messages sped to or were received from Europe, Australia, South America, and island groups In the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. This compares with a total of 207 messages for Christmas Day 1930. and 127 messages the preceding Christmas. f f Of the total, 87 conversations between this country and Honolulu were handled through the new Bell System radio*statlons on the Pacific Coast at Dixon and Point Reyes, Cal. This speech channel had been opened for public service on December 23. Messages to and from Bermuda on Christmas numbered 20, while those exchanged with Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, totaled 13.

' Although Fox will be making his first apparance in a local ring, he has built a targe roilowing by stellar performances in other Indiana cities. Outstanding among his wins is the l-rounc K. O. over Jack Redman, South Bend, for the championship. Redman was thought unbeatable before the Fox encounter. By virtue of this win, he is a heavy favorite to beat the experienced easterner. Many fans hereabouts claim the ring prowess of Indianapolis’s new sensation to ue equa: to that of the famous Jack Blackburn a decade ago.
