    For the best in OTR Chat, join IRC (Internet Relay Chat), StarLink-IRC
    Network, the channel name is #OldRadio.  We meet Thursdays at 8 PM Eastern
    and go on, and on! The oldest OTR Chat Channel, it has been in existence

    real-time OTR talk!

    Our "regulars" include OTR actors, soundmen, collectors, listeners, and
    others interested in enjoying OTR from points all over the world. Discussions
    range from favorite shows to almost anything else under the sun (sometimes
    it's hard for us to stay on-topic)...but even if it isn't always focused,
    it's always a good time!

    week and every week!

    Subject:  RECORD NUMBER OF OTR STARS TO PERFORM AT NOV. 5
     SPERDVAC LUNCHEON

    I'm excited to announce the entertainment lineup for the upcoming SPERDVAC
    Honorary Members Appreciation Luncheon, noon to 4:15pm on Saturday, November
    5, at Beverly Garland's Holiday Inn in North Hollywood. Tickets are only $50,
    which includes a 3-course sit-down luncheon, plus four great shows, featuring
    performances by an unprecedented number of Old-Time Radio stars. Tickets are
    going fast, so please order your tickets as soon as possible. A mail-in order
    form is online at [removed] or you can email Barbara
    Williams at mrj1313@[removed]

    Even if you can't make it to the event, please share this message with your
    friends.

    The shows include my own radio play, "I Love Lucy: The Untold Story," which
    had its successful premiere on August 6th (Lucille Ball's 100th birthday) at
    a beautiful 1,400-seat theatre in Lucy's hometown of Jamestown, New York
    (broadcast nationwide that same evening on SiriusXM Radio). It's a humorous
    look behind the scenes at the obstacles that had to be overcome to move
    Lucille Ball's radio sitcom ("My Favorite Husband") to television (as "I Love
    Lucy"), based on my dad's memoir, "Laughs, [removed] Lucy."

    My cast on November 5 will include

    * "I Love Lucy" and "My Favorite Husband" veteran JANET WALDO ("Peggy", the
    bobby-soxer with the crush on Ricky Ricardo; also radio's "Corliss Archer"
    and the voice of "Judy Jetson")

    * "I Love Lucy" and "My Favorite Husband" veteran SHIRLEY MITCHELL (Lucy
    Ricardo's girlfriend "Marion Strong", "The Great Gildersleeve", "Please Don't
    Eat the Daisies");

    * "Leave It to Beaver" star TONY DOW ("Wally Cleaver")

    * "Leave It to Beaver" star FRANK BANK (Wally's friend, "Lumpy", "The Jack
    Benny Program");

    * DICK VAN PATTEN ("Eight Is Enough", "I Remember Mama");

    * GLORIA McMILLAN (Principal Conklin's (Gale Gordon's) daughter "Harriet" on
    "Our Miss Brooks");

    * RENI SANTONI ("Suspense", "Poppy" on Seinfeld, co-star (as Clint Eastwood's
    partner) of "Dirty Harry");

    * GARY OWENS ("Rowan and Martin's Laugh-in", "Roger Ramjet");

    * HERB ELLIS ("Dragnet," "Gunsmoke", "Get Smart," "Bewitched");

    * PHIL PROCTOR (The Firesign Theatre, "Rugrats", "Finding Nemo", "Toy Story
    2");

    * CHUCK McCANN ("Boston Legal", "Robin Hood: Men in Tights", "The Heart Is a
    Lonely Hunter", "The Projectionist");

    * TOMMY COOK ("Blondie", "The Lux Radio Theatre", star of "Adventures of Red
    Ryder");

    * IVAN CURY (star of "Bobby Benson and the B-Bar-B Riders");

    * STUFFY SINGER ("The Jack Benny Program", "Leave It to Beaver");

    * JAN MERLIN (star of "Tom Corbett, Space Cadet");

    * MICHAEL C. GWYNNE ("Kojack", "Dallas", Howard Stern's "Private Parts");

    * MELINDA PETERSON ("MacGyver", "Twilight Zone")

    I'll also be directing JANET WALDO in the classic Suspense thriller "Sorry,
    Wrong Number," featuring another "I Love Lucy"/"My Favorite Husband" veteran,
    DORIS SINGLETON (Lucy Ricardo's girlfriend "Carolyn Appleby"), who will
    recreate the she played opposite Agnes Moorehead in the original 1943
    broadcast, plus GLADYS HOLLAND ("The Lux Radio Theatre," "To Catch a Thief,"
    "The Man Who Knew Too Much"), and special guest star TERRY MOORE (Academy
    Award nominee for "Come Back Little Sheba" and star of such films as "Daddy
    Long Legs," and "Mighty Joe Young"). Rounding out the cast of "Sorry, Wrong
    Number" will be GLORIA McMILLAN, PHIL PROCTOR, RENI SANTONI, HERB ELLIS,
    TOMMY COOK, and MICHAEL C. GWYNNE.  You won't want to miss it.

    Also on the program is an entertaining episode of Jimmy Stewart's radio
    Western, "The Six Shooter," which will star actor-comedian CHUCK McCANN doing
    an awesome Jimmy Stewart impression, plus SHIRLEY MITCHELL, who appeared on
    the original "Six Shooter" series. Chuck's such a Jimmy Stewart expert that
    if you ask him to do an impression of Jimmy Stewart, Chuck's response is, "At
    what age do you want him?" Guest-starring in "The Six Shooter" will be an
    actor who's no stranger to Westerns, BEN COOPER ("Gunsmoke," "The Virginian,"
    "Bonanza," "Support Your Local Gunfighter").

    One of the things I enjoy most about these shows is something the audience
    never gets to see -- all the kidding around between actors that happens
    during rehearsals. When one makes a mistake, another usually ad-libs
    something in an attempt to crack them up, and before you know it you've got a
    whole improvized shtick going. Well, this year director Tim Knofler is going
    to let the audience in on the fun: "The Six Shooter" will be done without any
    rehearsal, and we're encouraging the cast to go ahead have fun with it. With
    a cast that includes CHUCK McCANN, SHIRLEY MITCHELL, HERB ELLIS, BEN COOPER,
    and GARY OWENS, things might get a little wild.

    The final production of the afternoon will be "My Client Curley", a short
    satirical play by radio's greatest playwright, NORMAN CORWIN, directed by
    Michael Kacey. Corwin, the Oscar-nominated screenwriter of "Lust for Life"
    and such radio masterpieces as "On a Note of Triumph" and "The Plot to
    Overthrow Christmas," will be one of the many celebrities attending the
    luncheon. "My Client Curley," which was made into a motion picture, "Once
    Upon a Time"  (starring Cary Grant),  will star TOMMY COOK, who appeared in
    the original radio production, SEAN UMINSKI, GLORIA McMILLAN, RON COCKING,
    STUFFY SINGER, IVAN CURY, PHIL PROCTOR, MELINDA PETERSON, and MICHAEL C.
    GWYNNE.

    This event, organized by SPERDVAC Luncheon Chairman Jerry Williams, is sure
    to be a wonderfully entertaining afternoon (and the food isn't bad, either).
    Once again, seating is first-come, first served, so please register early. A
    mail-in registration form is online at [removed] or
    you can email Barbara Williams at mrj1313@[removed]

    Take care.

    Subject:  Defense Attorney

    Ted Kneebone advised that a friend of his has found 12 episodes of
    this ABC series and the program is both interesting and dramatic. Ted
    also mentions one of the shows is called "Defense Rests" and was done
    for NBC.

    Apparently Ted's friend has purchased a copy of the boxed CD set of
    12 "Defense Attorney" shows digitally remastered and recently
    released by Radio Spirits, Inc. I'm very familiar with this boxed set
    as I wrote the program guide for it.

    "The Defense Rests" was an audition show that NBC passed on as a
    series when the cast refused to relocate to New York City where NBC
    insisted it be produced. An independent radio producer, Don Sharpe,
    who made the first offer to NBC, then went to ABC, who not only
    bought the series, but also agreed that Mercedes McCambridge and the
    rest of the cast and writing crew, could stay in LA area.

    "Defense Attorney" debuted on ABC as a summer sustainer on July 6,
    1951 and would remain on the air through December 1952. Repeated
    attempts to mount it as a television show were [removed]

    Subject:  Looking for a Durante- Moore Show

    Hi!

    My Dad used to record some OTR shows off the air with his home disc recorder,
    and one of them was a Durante-Moore show from the late 40's. I don't have the
    exact date, but I think it was near Christmas because of some of the jokes.
    The guest was a female vocalist named Susanne Ellers (?) and one of the skits
    was "A Day in the Life of Humphrey Bogart" (although Bogart was not on the
    show - he was played by someone else) and another skit has Jimmy and Garry
    become lawyers. I'm pulling all this from my memory because my copy is
    hopelessly worn out after years of playing on cheap phonographs. Any chance
    that there is a recording of this show available somewhere? I've been
    Googling, but I haven't found a reference to this specific show.

    Thanks!

    Your friend should thank the good folks at Radio Spirits for once
    again finding a releasing lost episodes of another great series.  The
    new shows are in one of their latest packages.
