Thursday Night - Old Time Radio

Once again it is time to join yesterday once More to listen to two fine Theater Five
programs. Rob hancik will be our Host.

As we resume our stroll down Memory Lane we will continue with the Crime Fighters
series. First we will visit our local neighborhood police station and check out the
“Police Blotter” from June 8th, 1956 the show titled Homicide by Hurricane. When
a researcher is found dead in an airport wind tunnel, suicide is suspected, but was
it? Then we’ll visit the rather lighthearted crime-fighting duo of Pam and Jerry
North and hear the episode titled “The Letter” from October 6th, 1943. Can the North’s
prove their friend didn’t commit murder and get him off?

Presented by Joy Jackson. Reaching into the vaults, I chose a couple of shows that
star some familiar people in unfamiliar shows. “Much Ado about Doolittle” was a family
comedy starring none other than Hans Conreid as Col. Doolittle, as he calls himself.
This episode is “Get a Job”–something Mr. Doolittle’s wife would like him to do.
But he’s more than a little allergic to the idea. It’s from March 23, 1950.
My second show is a mystery/suspense called “O’Hara” starring Jack Moyles in the
title role. Adventures of a free-lance foreign correspondent in the far reaches of
the world. This episode is “The Judas Face”. If’s from July 22, 1951.

Rob Hancik presented two episodes of The Witches Tale.

Kelly Sapergia of Moose jaw,Saskatchewan, Canada wil be our Presenter for the evening.
He will play a George Burns and Gracie Allen show called “Gracie Adopts Micky Rooney,”
and a show from Hall of Fantasy called “The Man from the Second Earth.”

Next time on Memory Lane: First up will be an episode of Broadway Is My Beat titled
“Peggy Warner,” the story of a young woman found dying in an alley from poison. Was
it an accident or murder? From Feb 7, 1953. Then we will listen to The Bishop And
The Gargoyle episode from July 14, 1940 a story title “The Jennifer Botts Case.”
A young woman visiting New York from a small town in Illinois is robbed of all of
her money, kidnapped, and winds up recovering a missing ruby. So, pour yourself a
glass of iced tea, sit back, relax , and enjoy the show.

Matthew Bullis will take us into the world of children as we discover Ranger Bill,
the Warrior of the Woodlands.
