After circling the globe as a w^riter and lecturer, he became European representa­ tive for NBC in 1931. Looking back on many broadcasts which at the time thrilled so many NBC listeners, Jordan considers them mere re­ hearsals in the light of the long list of "scoops" he chalked up as a result of the war. Hitler's march on Austria and the famous Munich agreement were reported to the world by Jordan ahead of all other news services. The invasion of Norway and Denmark, the first broadcast from the Siegfried Line and the story of the ill-fated City of Flint are other achieve­ ments in Jordan's long list of war "Into the Air," After Eight Months "scoops." 8 >'y^c^!w^>f^i^%a«^(^(tM Aeoii. >
