    1934   The first appointments to the newly created Federal
    Communications Commission were made. The governing body of the American
    broadcasting industry was first served by seven men named as commissioners.

    1946   The Adventures of Sam Spade was heard on ABC for the first time.

    1957   Funnyman Stan Freberg debuted a new weekly comedy program on CBS.
    The Freberg show only lasted a short time and that newfangled
    contraption, television, was blamed for the show's quick demise.

    In the 1970's, with declining listenership at night, WTIC in Hartford,
    CT, determined that there was a market for long-form shows that could be
    packaged and sold to sponsors. Dick Bertel proposed "The Golden Age of
    Radio," and Arnold Dean suggested "A One Night Stand with the Big
    Bands." WTIC management accepted the ideas, and in 1970 the programs
    debuted. You can hear hundreds of hours of programs at our website, free
    for the download.

    We've recently discovered a new recording - excerpts from WTIC's 50th
    anniversary program. Go to [removed]   - click on
    "Additional Features" then scroll down "WTIC 50th Anniversary Program."
