Subject:  Rich man, Poor man rhyme
X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: from multipart/alternative
X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: Alternative section used was text/plain

       Well here [removed] believe that John Le Carre' had a series of books
based
on this children's rhyme.  The rhyme itself, as I recall, was a game little
girls
used to play.  It went something like this:

When shall I marry?
       This year, sometime, never.
What will my husband be?
       Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, rich man, poor man, beggar man,
thief.
What will I be?
       Lady, baby, gypsy, queen.
What shall I wear?
       Silk, satin, cotton, rags.
How shall I get it?
       Given, borrowed, bought, stolen.
How shall I get to church?
       Coach, carriage, wheelbarrow, cart.
Where shall I live?
       Big house, little house, pig sty, barn?

       There's also another rhyme which begins: "Tinker, tailor, soldier,
sailor, rich
man poor man, beggar man, thief", but I don't recall what it is.  Seems to me
it was
a counting game children used to play.  I could be wrong. I hope this helps.

As always,

Kenneth Clarke

I am interested in selling my Philco 46-350 radio. It is in very good
working condition (a tuner was installed long before I bought it in April  of
2008). The leather handle is missing, but otherwise the case is in great
condition. Bought it for $20, but in the shape it is in, between $75-$100 for
it is a very good bargain. Please e-mail me at _afanofoldradio@[removed]_

 From: "Jan Bach" <janbach@[removed];

Ed Sullivan ... Victor  Borge preceded the
Beatles and fell flat on his face ... "teenyboppers" ...  were
too unsophisticated to appreciate his humor

Dear Jan-

I think "unsophisticated" is too perjorative here?

As a fan of both Borge and the Beatles, and a person blessed to have seen
him, and one ex-Beatle, perform live, I think it was just a matter of the
right  show for the right house?

One of The Great Dane's audiences of the same era, confronted by the Fab
Four, would've given about the same response!

Best,

 From Those Were The Days

10/4

1948   Gordon MacRae hosted the premiere of a radio classic. The
Railroad Hour debuted on ABC. The theme song was I've Been Working on
the Railroad and the show was sponsored by, get ready, America's railroads.

10/5

1930   The New York Philharmonic Orchestra was first heard on the air
over CBS from Carnegie Hall. The Sunday afternoon concerts set CBS back
$15,000, ($184,668 in todays money). Not per week, but for the entire
season!

1930   This was a big day for CBS. Following the orchestra broadcast
(above), Father Coughlin, The Fighting Priest was first heard on network
radio. He lit up the airwaves with oratory that aired into the early
forties.  He was first heard on WJR Detroit in 1926.

1934   The first major network radio show to originate from Hollywood
aired on this day. Hollywood Hotel was heard on CBS and was heavily
promoted as being the first to broadcast from the West Coast of the [removed]

1947   A small Northern California company got a major boost from Bing
Crosby. The first show recorded on tape was broadcast on ABC. 'Der
Bingle' was so popular, that his taped show promoted wide distribution
of the new magnetic tape recorders that would become broadcast classics
    the venerable Ampex 200.

1952   After an 11 year run, Inner Sanctum, the legendary mystery
series, was heard for the final time. We'll never know if they oiled
that squeaky [removed]  (Of course there's the story of a staffer who did
actually oil the door before one [removed] ed)

10/6

1937   Hobby Lobby debuted on CBS. The host was the dean of American
hobbyists, Dave Elman. The shows theme was The Best Things in Life are
Free. Sponsors included Fels Naptha soap, Hudson paper products and
Colgate Dental Creme.

10/7

1922   The first radio network, of sorts, debuted. It was a network of
just two stations. WJZ in Newark, NJ teamed with WGY in Schenectady, NY
to bring the World Series game direct from the Polo Grounds in New York.
Columnist Grantland Rice was behind the microphone for that broadcast.

1939   Kate Hopkins, Angel of Mercy was heard for the first time on CBS
radio. Tom Hopkins, Kate's husband, was played by eventual Beat the
Clock host Clayton 'Bud' Collyer. The 15 minute radio drama was written
by Chester McCraken and Gertrude Berg (writer and Emmy Award winning
actress of The Goldbergs, a popular radio and TV series in the 1940s &
1950s). The announcer for the four year run of Angel of Mercy was Ralph
Edwards of future This is Your Life fame. And the sponsor was Maxwell
House of coffee fame.

1940   Portia Faces Life debuted on the NBC Red network. This radio soap
opera centered around the life of Portia Blake Manning, an attorney and
a widow with a young son.  Portia Faces Life was extremely popular, and
therefore, had many sponsors, none of which were soap. The sponsors
included Post Toasties, Grape Nuts Flakes, Grape Nuts Wheat Meal,
Maxwell House coffee, Jell-O desserts and La France bleach.

10/8

1935   The O'Neills debuted on CBS. The theme song, Londonderry Air,
opened the 15 minute soap opera. The O'Neills aired Mondays, Wednesdays
and Fridays at 7:30 [removed] In 1936 it moved to daytime where it stayed
until 1943 on NBC's Red and Blue networks and on CBS, too. One of
radio's original soaps, it was sponsored appropriately by Silver Dust,
Ivory soap and Ivory soap flakes.

1935   Wedding bells pealed for a singer and a bandleader who tied the
knot, making radio history together. The bandleader was Ozzie Nelson and
the singer was Harriet Hilliard. They would make the history pages again
on this very day, nine years later.

1944   The first broadcast of The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet was
heard on the CBS network.

10/9

1935   Cavalcade of America was first broadcast. The CBS show featured
some of Hollywood and Broadway's most famous stars in leading roles in
the half hour dramas. Thomas Chalmers narrated the stories about obscure
incidents and people in American history. The orchestra was led by
Donald Voorhees. The show aired from 1935 to 1953, changing from CBS to
NBC in 1939; with one sponsor for its entire duration. The DuPont
Company introduced its slogan on Cavalcade of America ... "Better things
for better living through [removed]"

1943   ABC presented Land of the Lost. The opening phrase for the show
was, "In that wonderful kingdom at the bottom of the [removed]" This
children's adventure fantasy serial took the audience underwater where
the main characters, Isabel and Jimmy, were guided by their friend, a
red fish named Red Lantern and played at first by Junius Matthews and
later, by Art Carney. Land of the Lost found a large audience and
remained on the air until 1948.

10/10

1932   Two of radio's earliest efforts at soap operas were heard for the
first time. Judy and Jane, sponsored by Folger's Coffee, and Betty and
Bob, sponsored by General Mills, had listeners glued to their radios
into the early 1940s.

1933   Dreft, the first synthetic detergent, went on sale. Ten years
later, Dreft was the sponsor of The Dreft Star Playhouse.

1937   The Mutual Broadcasting System debuted Thirty Minutes in
Hollywood. 48 sponsors shared the cost of the program that aired in 72
cities nationwide. It was the first Mutual co op radio show. George
Jessel and Norma Talmadge starred. Music was provided by the Tommy
Tucker Orchestra.

Subject:  October Issue: RADIO RECALL

The October issue of RADIO RECALL has been sent to subscribers who
receive it via PDF, while the hard copies will be mailed out in 10
days to those subscribers who chose that option.

This issue leads off with Ryan Ellett's review of our hobby in
1971-1975 which he terms "the perfect storm" and he discusses the
various OTR clubs, conventions and publications of that era. This is
followed by the details of Ed "The Big Broadcast" Walker's recent
elevation to the National Radio Hall of Fame.

Michael Hayde's new book on Superman, "Flights of Fantasy" is
reviewed by Maury Cagle. Jim Cox and our editor take turns decrying
the arrogant way CBS kicked "The Guiding Light" off the air with nary
a nod to its 72 years on the air and nearly 16,000 episodes. Was
there really a train that left [removed] in the 40s that went to Anaheim,
Azusa and [removed] Yes, there was, and railroad historian
Curtis Katz tells us which one.

Adam Roslewicz, our resident puzzle master, serves up one entitled
"Who Played Whom?" in the form of a matching game. And to wrap up
this issue, what did Nancy Drew and Just Plain Bill have in common?
They were both written in a fiction factory of obscure writers, not
the "authors" who supposedly wrote their adventures. Learn how the
Hummerts borrowed the business model of Edward Stratemeyer and paved
their own way to riches.
