Cornell Students Panicked by Orson Welles' type Radio Show

Cornell University students panicked momentarily last night when an Ithaca radio station broadcast that London and Marseilles had been bombed and that all R.O.T.C. units would be activated immediately.

Word that the broadcast was a stunt reminiscent of Orson Welles' invasion from Mars radio program got around about a quarter of an hour after the community and students were thrown into extreme excitement.
