Subject: Confessions of a Former RSI Customer
I've read recent posts especially Mr. Amari with great interest. I am
recovering former Radio Spirit Customer as I have (in the PAST) purchased
over 13 Bookshelf collections and countless individual cassettes. This
includes two 60 Tape collections. I ceased being a customer when they began
eliminating competition with the absorbtion of RadioYesteryear, Adevntures
in Cassettes, and other predatory practices. Curiously, a year or so before
RSI began these activities I was sent customer survey asking me to name
names of sources of OTR that I do business with other than RSI. Of the 4
outfits I names, three of them are no longer in business. However, that is a
moot point.
Mr. Amari says "I have no wish, or any right to stop people from selling
shows that are in the public domain." This is in my opinion not completely
true. There popular website which makes available shows of X Minus One
called Evans at [removed]. this website was
threatened with a lawsuit by RSI/ Mediabay some time ago. The owner of this
web site promptly took it offline, spent the time and $$MONEY$$ resarching
the copyright status of X-1 and then after concluding that RSI had no
exclusive claim to it restored the website and the X-1 shows. Similarly, a
friend of mine here in Oklahoma was threatened with a Cease and Desist
letter form Mediabay a little over a year ago for selling shows on cd on
ebay. One his prize offerings was a CD of 100 shows for $[removed] including
shipping. He retained a friend from College who was Attorney in Tulsa
specializing in law in this area. After a short time he was issued a written
apology by [removed] all need to be as vigilant.
I ceased to be RSI customer for primariuly one reason. It was not their
moderately higher prices, or sound quality. I saw the creation of monopoly
to control selection. In the past, if RSI didn't carry the particular
episode I wanted I'd order it from Radio Yesteryear, or Adventures in
Cassettes, or Wireless, or Carl Froelich, Jr, or Charlie Garrant. With turn
of recent events, we are increasingly having our choices dictated by one
company. One of my Favorite shows ROCKY JORDAN is one that I wish to acquire
every available show. But RSI will not allow me this freedom they are
eliminated from their catalog. I'de like to know if various "show experts"
out there limit their research to shows "available" in RSI catalog. As to
anyone selling When Radio Was, they certaintly get what they deserve. These
shows are butchered. A few years back I was listening to When Radio Was show
which was playing the Gunsmoke show from the its first season called "TARA".
The show had an entire middle scene deleted so that the ending in which
Marshall Dillion is chasing the outlaw Jack Grase makes no sense. The scene
in which Mr. Dillion and Kitty discovered the bodies of mr. and mrs. Kells
was missing. I do not know whether this RSI doing to squeeze in another
plug, or the actions of a local affiliate. When I was growing up in late
1970s my Dad listened John Dunning's show on local radio station in DENVER.
There was a radio show by someone who had true love of Radio who gave
referrals to other comapnies such as the now defunct GOOD TYME RADIO COMPANY
but didn't try to push anytime except a fine medium. It is thanks to Mr
Dunning that I have a wonderful hobby. Someone made the comment a while back
OTR is a dying hobby. It certaintly hope not. The only affiliate in my area
wich is the capital of the State of Oklahoma has dropped carrying When Radio
Was from Sun 4am time slot a few years ago to replace it with Art Bell
Reruns.
In closing I just like to say with all due respect that it is through
people like myself who though young (I am Finishing Graduate School this
year) have enduring love of Old Time Radio. I find acquiring a serious
collection of shows frustrating though RSI especially as they consolidate
their market position eliminating consumer [removed] wonder if RSI would
consider the excellent scholarship that Mr. Dunning has done through the use
of his collection of 40,000+ shows to be work done using bootleg and
"illegal" copies of shows. I truly wonder.

Subject: Tomorrow 1949
Tom Meland inquires about a show titled Tomorrow 1949 featuring Fred
Allen. There is no show listed by that title in Hickerson, Dunning,
Sies, Terrace or Swartz/Reinehr, perhaps the most reliable and inclusive
lists of programs currently available in print. Perhaps no such show
ever aired. I'm thinking it may be a compendium of Allen material
perhaps pulled together on behalf of a particular organization or
commercial firm, possibly offered as some type of premium or other
giveaway. Maybe someone else will have more definitive data to prove it
actually aired as a program at least once but that conclusion has escaped
me thus far.

Subject: Re: WNEW
Jim Stokes wonders,
I surely would like to know the history of WNEW-AM in New York, which was
the radio home of Al Jazzbo Collins, Ted Brown, Gene Rayburn, William B.
Williams, and others. The web does not have any real history of this
wonderful station. I can only recall WNEW's pleasant MOR ID song about
1962 when Ted Brown was still there.
WNEW went on the air on 2/13/34, founded by advertising executive Milton
Biow by means of a merger of two former time-share stations, WODA and
WAAM, and was originally licensed to Newark, New Jersey. (The station's
original corporate name perpetuated the memory of the stations it
absorbed, as "Wodaam, Inc.")
The station's original equipment (including control-room gear, furniture,
and several nearly-obsolete RCA 4-A condenser mikes) was purchased by
Biow for approximately $9800 at the December 1933 Irving Trust Company
foreclosure auction in which the ruins of Ed Wynn's Amalgamated
Broadcasting System were liquidated, and the station's original New York
studios, at 501 Madison Avenue, were those originally built for
Amalgamated. Wynn himself, however, never had anything to do with the
station, nor do the letters "EW" in the call letters make any reference
to Wynn. "NEW" stands for "NEWark."
WNEW originally broadcast on 1250 kc, and shared time two days a week
with WHBI, another small station in Newark. WNEW from the beginning
emphasised a heavy schedule of popular music, both live and recorded, and
was on a 24-hour-a-day schedule as early as 1939. It also presented heavy
coverage of local sports, including boxing matches and Newark Bears and
Jersey City Giants International League baseball. During the late
thirties, when the three major-league teams in New York City had banded
together to prohibit broadcast coverage, the only baseball broadcasts
available in the greater New York area were Earl Harper's minor league
broadcasts over WNEW.
The station moved to 1130 kc in 1941, as a double consequence of the
Treaty of Havana frequency realignment and a frequency-trading deal with
station WOV. WNEW remained on the air in its original format at 1130 into
December 1992. The format moved to WQEW (the former WQXR), and after a
gradual transition period, WNEW mutated into WBBR, the Bloomsberg
Business Radio station. (This WBBR has no relation to the original WBBR,
the Watch Tower Society religious station which existed from 1924 to
1957).
A partial listing of WNEW personalities over the decades can be found at

Subject: Peter Lorre Radio Shows
Dear Jay,
My name is Cheryl Morris. Richard Pirodsky, a friend of mine, gave me your
eMail address and suggested I get in touch with you. I'm hoping you can help
me with a project I have.
I'm also a long-time friend of Stephen D. Youngkin, co-author of The Films of
Peter Lorre (Citadel Press, 1982). Mr. Youngkin is currently finishing up a
book-length biography on Mr. Lorre to be published within the next year by
[removed] Press. I'm working on a list of Peter's radio and TV credits for the
book's appendix.
Richard told me you have a Mr. and Mrs. North episode list. One of the most
difficult areas is the list of Mystery Playhouse episodes that Peter hosted.
Do you have the correct title and date for a [removed] North episode in which
Jerry is out of town and Pam North helps their friend, Weasel, solve a murder
involving Weasel's boss Mr. Crane?
Do you have the correct title and date for the [removed] North episode in
which Doug Grant's wife dies?
Do you have a log of Mr. District Attorney episodes? If you do, I also need
titles and dates for these episodes:
1) A black-faced comedian is knifed to death in a burlesque theater.
2) A dishonest lawyer plans to murder two eccentric old ladies.
3) Mr. [removed] solves a mystery involving gas shipments.
Thanks for any help you can give me. I'm sure Stephen Youngkin will be glad
to add your name to the Acknowledgements.
Best wishes,
Cheryl Morris

Subject: Radio for Kids
Thanks so much to Mark Kinsler for his kind words about me! You can bet the
rent I'm hanging on to [removed]
KIDS CORNER is, indeed, radio for kids. Specifically, it's a daily, live,
call-in radio show for kids. We broadcast from WXPN in Philadelphia.
We're online at [removed] or [removed]. Going to
[removed] will take you to my show's website, where there's lots of
information about the show, along with several photos of my (live) dog and
my (long deceased) grandmother. And isn't that why the web was invented?
Kids Corner airs Monday-Friday from 7-8 pm. WXPN is at [removed] fm in the
Philadelphia area. We're also at [removed] (WXPH) in Harrisburg, [removed] in the
Lehigh Valley (PA) and [removed] around Worton, Maryland. Join [removed]
Outside of my talking about "Gunsmoke" (TV) on the air, the main connection
to otr is in the recordings I've shared with kids over the [removed]
Jones, Abbott & Costello, Stan Freberg, The Foursome ("The Korn Kobblers").
Along with treasures like John Lithgow's "Singin' in the Bathtub" cd, where
he covers the Hoosier Hotshots ("From the Indies to the Andes in His Undies"
complete with "are you ready, Hezzie?" at the beginning), Flanders & Swann
("I'm a Gnu"), and Allan Sherman ("You Gotta Have Skin").
There's actually quite a bit of radio for kids being done at local stations,
as well as programs like "Pickleberry Pie" that have been syndicated for
years. PJ Swift, the creator of "Pickleberry Pie," maintains a list of
radio programs for kids on the Children's Music Web website (sorry, I don't
know the address, but a search will take you there).
One more [removed], the question of what otr shows appeal to kids
arises on this list. Back when I was teaching a couple of courses on
creating radio programs for kids, I found that "Our Miss Brooks" had
enormous appeal for my students (3-5 graders). I think there's something
about the school experience that transcends the generations. And it didn't
hurt that the Our Miss Brooks tapes I had were nice and clear to listen to.
* ***************************************************************************
ALOHA! I have a question. I'm going to be traveling to Hawaii in a couple
of weeks (tough life, huh?). Does anyone know of any otr broadcasts in
Hawaii? And, does anyone know anything about the history of Hawaiian radio?
Any websites that talk about the subject?
Thanks in advance,

Subject: Re: Benny's Contracts
Peter from Hawaii offers,
Concerning Jack Benny, I don't think he ever "owned" his show. The sponsor
may have owned it, or the network, or maybe the advertising agency, but
surely not Jack Benny.(Elizabeth, Michael, if I'm wrong please correct me).
But everybody knows that Jack kept a transcription disc of each and every
show he did. Buying or copying these discs from Joan Benny does not give you
exclusive rights to the material.
Benny is a good example of how complicated all these issues can become.
While different agencies over the years were responsible for the
production of his shows (N. W. Ayer, Campbell-Ewalt, Young and Rubicam,
Foote, Cone and Belding, et. al.) all indications I've seen point to him
employing his writers directly, all the way back to Harry Conn in the
early thirties. The writers, as creators of the script, were working for
Benny and not for the agency -- but Benny himself was working for and was
paid by the agency, at least until 1949 when he began working directly
for CBS. This is why all these contracts would have to be examined in
detail to determine by definition who exactly owns what. It is a fact,
though, that Benny's scripts were held under common-law copyrights and
were not registered -- and so were not subject to expiration or renewal.
It's also a fact that Benny sold his production company to CBS in 1948 --
and the original contract governing that sale would have to be examined
to determine exactly what intellectual property rights were conveyed.
And there is yet another joker in the deck: state laws regulating the
duplication of master recordings. Jack owned his personal transcriptions
of the broadcasts as physical property, regardless of the contractural
provisions governing their content. These discs were donated to UCLA in
the 1970s, but the Benny estate retains the right to control access to
the discs. Under California state law, the exclusive right of duplication
of a "master recording" is held by the owner of that master recording.
This law was enacted to protect the masters of materials intended for
commercial release, but it seems likely that it could be applied to
original radio transcriptions as well (not copy discs, not dubs, not
pressings, not transfers, but one-of-a-kind masters onto which the
original sounds were directly recorded.)
This is *not* Federal copyright. But under that California state law, a
vendor could license the rights to use the sounds recorded on those
master discs, above and beyond any copyright protection to which the
actual content might be subject. Other such laws exist in other states
governing pre-1972 sound recordings -- in Illinois, for example, it's a
Class 4 Felony to make "unauthorized commercial use" of a recording. What
jurisdiction a California, New York, or Illinois law has across state
lines, or in foreign countries, is for the lawyers to explain -- but I
wouldn't be surprised to learn that a lot of the "exclusive agreements"
under discussion here fall under such state laws rather than Federal
copyright. In such cases, it's entirely possible for one party to own the
physical property of the master recordings and another,totally unrelated
party to own the intellectual property contained on those recordings. Two
valid claims to the same program, covered under entirely different sets
of laws.
For an interesting summary of this issue, see

Subject: (c) Red Skelton (tm)
I know that Red Skelton's widow has filed for a trademark on just about
everything related to Red Skelton (tm). Some of his TV shows are being sold
without her permission. They are considered PD but they were produced by
Red. Red was know to keep ownership on just about everything he made. It is
unlikely that his shows are copyright free, including his radio shows. At
first the radio shows may have been copyright by NBC, CBS, or even MGM (he
was under contract with the studio at the time). I would not be surprised if
Red bought up the copyright if he had the chance. Mrs. Skelton is selling
the radio show on the official Red Skelton (tm) web site. I do not know what
type of deal she has with Mr. Amari (if any) but it would seem to me that
she would want to be the only seller of Red's show (which is her right). If
Mr. Amari wants respect for his legal rights, he should put a trademark on
everything related to Red and put at notice on who owns the trademark.
I am not totally against Mr. Amari. He is bringing OTR to the general
public. If he fells that he loosing money by this group of online traders or
dealers like that are at conventions then he has a right to protect his
business. It would be a good guess that the dealers at the Cincy con are not
connected to him. If you were not aware of Mr. Amair's business, it is hard
to find radio shows. If you Mr. Amari can't beat them, join them.
For those who have the time, they can try to understand how to find
copyrights from the Library of Congress. I tried but no luck. I might of
missed something.

LATE-BREAKING NEWS
"Return With Us Now," the Newsletter of the Radio Historical Association
of Colorado (RHAC), is NOT ceasing publication!
In a conversation on Friday, June 8, 2001 with RHAC President, Larry
Weide, I learned that RHAC members have volunteered to take over the
production of the RHAC Newsletter. The publication of "Return To Us
Now" should continue without interruption.
OTR CLUBS AND VOLUNTEERS
In this age of the Internet instant gratification are the traditional
OTR Clubs and Organizations obsolete? I think not! Traditional OTR Clubs
offer MUCH MORE than just radio shows on tape!
Here is a general summary of the of what amenities OTR Clubs, as a
whole, offer the OTR Community:
Conventions
Want to meet some of OTR personalities you have heard?
Want to see radio show recreations with OTR performers?
Attend an OTR Convention!
Newsletters
stories and history about OTR and OTR series,
tape library order forms,
updates to the Club library catalog,
information about current OTR conventions & activities,
interviews with OTR stars, and
OTR book reviews.
Meetings on
OTR Shows,
panels on subjects OTR, and
Interviews of OTR personalities
show re-creation performance groups,
show re-creation performance groups,
OTR Show Re-creation Performance Groups
Libraries of OTR Reference Materials and Books
Series Logs
OTR Scripts
A problem that is faced by most, if not all, Old-Time Radio Clubs is a
shortage of volunteers to do the all work needed keep these organizations
going. If anything, it will be lack of volunteers that will finally kills
these fine organizations.
If you belong to an OTR Club - offer your services as a volunteer. If
you join an OTR Club - volunteer to help. There are lots of jobs, large and
small, to be done. Volunteers are almost always needed and ALWAYS
appreciated.
You can find a very good list of OTR Clubs at:

What's In A Paper OTR NEWSLETTER?
During my 3 ½ years as editor of "Return With Us Now," the RHAC Newsletter
featured a wide-range of articles of OTR subjects. Here is JUST a SMALL
sampling of what has appeared in the RHAC Newsletter:
articles on a variety of OTR subjects by nationally-known authors such as
Elizabeth McLeod, Martin Grams, Jim Cox, Jack French, and Michael J, Hayde;
Interview Articles - Jim French and Phil Harper, John Dunning, Harry
Bartell, and Herb Ellis;
OTR Series Articles - Monitor, Dragnet, Duffy's Tavern, The Lonesome Gal,
The Shadow, The Lone Ranger, Destination Freedom, and Fort Laramie;
Reports on OTR Conventions;
OTR Book Reviews; and
many articles on a wide-range of OTR subjects by RHAC members.
In short, a lot of informative and entertaining subject matter about OTR
that is not available on the Internet! OTR Club Newsletters are another
great source of OTR Information.

I was concerned when I reading the postings about his declining to grant
interviews. It didn't make sense, and didn't sound like him. So I decided to
call him and get the scoop‰Ý straight from the source.
He's a delightful guy, with a quick wit and sharp sense
of humor.
That's good to hear. We would love to have Skip in the group or at a
convention. A lot of OTR actors when first invited feel like perhaps their
OTR work was limited in number and that they will have little to share.
However, once they get there they do indeed realize how much they really
truly have to offer. And usually want to come back again and again. I for
one can think of many questions that I would like to ask
Skip Homeier . Perhaps Walden could even interview him on Yesterday USA?
And what's this I always hear about living in the past. Some of the radio
work was outstanding and I find it great to listen to . More so than many of
the TV shows today . There are a lot of classic TV shows as well . And I want
to hear and see them and I don't care that they were produced 40 or more
years ago. They are great shows . No one accuses someone who listens to
Mozart of living in the past.
I don't want to go back to 1940 but I do want to hear some of those great
radio shows. If more radio dramas and comedies were produced in the 60s ,
70s and 80s
we would be re-listening to those too. If they had the same level of talent
and production. There is so much from the 30s , 40s and 50s to choose from.
I have to admit some of the period pieces are fun for just historical
purposes.
Anyways, I want to thank Harlan Stone for contributing to this list as I
have enjoyed
his many postings and would love to hear more from him on his OTR days.
I am sure his postings are certainly popular and someone may combine all
his postings into one book and make a lot of money .
But I am not sure who exactly owns the rights to these postings . Perhaps
we
should read the small print at the end of the digest. : )

Subject: MUSIC NEEDED
Greetings! I am the producer & director of an amateur
troupe in So. California (West Coast Radio
Theater-WCRT) and am always looking for solutions to
the vexing problem of music when we tour. A live
keyboard player is not always possible or practical. I
am looking for a tape or cd with generic (organ)
music- dramatic chords, generic themes from the
different genres (ie: Dectective, Western, Soap,
etc.),ending fanfares etc.
So far I have not found any such thing, but would love
to find someone who can help me make one, and make it
available to groups such as mine, for use in
emergencies (I NOT trying to put keyboard players out
of business- I wish I could find a reliable one or
three) Any ideas are appreciated!
WCRT opens June 22 with A salute to the Golden Days of
Radio at the hilside playhouse in Hemet, CA (Near Palm
Springs). If any of you are in the area, please come.
e mail me for info.
I am also always on the lookout for new material-short
episodes "in the style of"- 10 minutes. Especially
parodies. I can't pay at this time, as we are
amatuers, but if we use your material, we'll of course
give credit and send you a tape of our version of your
work.
Glad to find you, and look forward to working together
