    Mike and List:

    I too would love to hear more of Wolcott's work, particularly any recordings
    of hem telling ghost stories.  If you have been doing extensive research on
    him, you may already know about this but a recording of him as Town Crier is
    available on the preview trailer for Goodbye, Mr. Chips (1939), which is
    available on the now out-of-print laser disc version of this classic,
    sentimental film which Wolcott would obviously have loved.  His contribution
    takes up about the first 90 seconds of the trailer, the first minute of which
    us Wolcott sitting and talking and then I think there is another 30 seconds or
    so of him talking over images of the film.  Watching this disc now many years
    ago was how I first became acquainted with him.

    This is the first time I have ever had anything to contribute to this
    wonderful list so please go easy if I made any mistakes.  Thanks so much to
    all the experts who contribute their wonderful information freely every day.

    Anyone interested in seeing/hearing a live radio drama, is invited to come
    to Faith Methodist Church in Aberdeen, SD December 20 at 10:30 am.  "Boy
    Angel" was written for a Sunday school class of 5th and 6th graders in 1986.
    I have revised it for the young people of Faith Church.  As part of the
    program, there will be live music.

    This may not belong in this newsletter, so it is for information purposes.

    Subject:  Dick & Jeannie?

    I recently obtained a transcription for a five minute serial called "Dick
    & Jeannie" and have failed to turn up anything about the show.

    Anyone on the list ever heard of it?

    I'm going to post the shows on my blog in a few weeks and would appreciate
    some idea of the time frame it was syndicated or some other facts about
    it.  I'm even wondering if the show was syndicated at all or if this was a
    sample disc of a proposed series.

    It's one of those shows that's so bad, it's [removed]

    Subject:  OTR catchphrase

    I recall hearing, as a kid in about the early 1940s, a radio character
    regularly saying "TO be sure, TO be sure", with the stress on "to".  It seems
    to me that the character might have been Charlie McCarthy.  I understand that
    Joe Penner used that line but I don't think I ever heard him use it.

    Do any of you remember or know who (besides Penner) regularly said "To be
    sure, to be sure" in 1940s radio?

    Thanks.

    Subject:  BearManor Media sale

    I don't post often, so hopefully it's ok to say that BearManor Media is now
    having a 20% off sale on Every book on the site. It lasts until the very last
    minute of November.

    By the way, we've got some new radio books coming. We're working on a massive
    Verna Felton bio which has a ton of pictures that No one has seen before,
    direct from a trunk in Verna's niece's attic. :) Also, I'm slowly winding up
    my Mel Blanc book which will be out Sometime next year. It's a lengthy
    project, especially collecting up all those credits! That man worked a Lot.

    We're also working to get this digest's own Dave Siegel's book out early next
    year. It's a collection of interviews he's done with radio people. (Being a
    Frank Nelson fan, it's great to have the ultimate Yes man in there.) I'll
    have more news on this soon.

    Plus, I'm working on a 3rd Baby Snooks script book, and Jimmy Stewart on the
    Air is going to be massive. I thought our MASH book was the biggest, but
    Jimmy just might equal or surpass that.

    Again, thanks for all your support: here, online, at the FOTR convention and
    everywhere. Without you all, we wouldn't still be here!

    Subject:  Speaking of War of the Worlds

    I've been meaning to bring this up since Oct. 30, but I've been busy. When I
    listened to "War of the Worlds" on Oct. 30, I decided to page through a book
    I own called The War of the Worlds: Mars' Invasion of Earth, inciting panic
    and inspiring terror from [removed] Wells to Orson Welles and Beyond by
    Sourcebooks MediaFusion. In doing so, I saw that the book, which I hadn't
    looked at in some time, contained the script for the radio show. So I decided
    to follow along for a bit.

    And I noticed some differences between the script and the broadcast. The
    first instance I made note of sounds like there's a fault in the original
    transcription disc. It's the part where Professor Pierson says "I look down
    at my blackened hands, my torn shoes, my tattered [removed]" I own six
    copies of the "War of the Worlds" broadcast on both tape and CD, and a quick
    check of three of them, the Radio Reruns tape, the CD version that came with
    the book, and the CD in the collection "Radio Tune in the Golden Age: The
    Classic Collection", all had a "skip", if you will, after "blackened hands",
    jumping to "and I try to connect them with a professor who lives at
    Princeton." And I don't remember ever hearing the lines about torn shoes and
    tattered clothes (whether hearing the show over the radio or on tape or CD),
    so I'm guessing my other three copies-- and all other copies-- of the episode
    are all missing those few words. Or does anyone have a copy that
     doesn't skip over that small bit?

    The second instance I noted comes not long after, as Professor Pierson
    reflects on how strange it is to be back in his study, life returned to
    normal. After describing how strange it is to be writing this last chapter in
    his study, Pierson says, "Strange to see the University spires dim and blue
    through an April haze. Strange to watch children playing in the streets." The
    three copies I checked are all missing that first sentence, and there's no
    "skip", as there was in the earlier example. Nor do I remember ever hearing
    the line about the university spires. Does anyone have a copy of the
    broadcast with that sentence about the university spires? If not, then it
    could be that the Welles and/or the cast made some last minute edits to the
    script and cut that line before broadcast. On the other hand, if people do
    have copies of the broadcast with that sentence included, it suggests later
    edits done, perhaps, as someone suggested in an earlier digest, to make
     room for commercials when "The War of the Worlds" was aired on some station
    around Halloween.

    I'm pretty sure there's one or two earlier examples of the broadcast
    differing from the script, but I didn't mark those pages in the book that
    day. In any event, as I said, I don't recall ever hearing those missing bits
    I described above. But I was curious whether anyone had, in either case. In
    any event, it might tell me whether I have later generation recordings.

    While I've never listened to all six copies one after the other, I have heard
    the story so many times that if there were any major differences, I'd have
    noticed it at the time and made note of it in my Radioshows database. So I'm
    guessing that were I to undertake such a task, I'd only notice various
    degrees of surface noise, improvements in sound quality, etc.

    The other three copies I own, for the record, are included in the collections
    "Old Time Radio Science Fiction" (Smithsonian Collection) and "The Greatest
    Old Time Radio of the 20th Century" and a tape from "The World's Greatest Old
    Time Radio Shows."

    For what it's worth, I don't believe there's a second version, and whenever
    I've heard the episode, whether over the radio or on tape or CD, it's always
    been Ramon Raquello, never anyone else.
