    There was a television episode in which the LR, in a bearded old-
    timer disguise, came in to see a lady barber for a trim.  While he
    was in the chair, she noticed the outline of a mask where he wasn't
    sun-tanned and decided he was an outlaw (as so many people tended to
    do).

    Stage makeup is fine for on-stage to create an illusion for people
    sitting out in the audience, but I doubt that makeup disguises can be
    that good to fool someone close-up.  I don't believe Batman's
    disguises either.

    Description
    During the first half of the 20th century, radiobs hunger for captivating
    characters and stories could not be sated. Three national networks and dozens
    of
    independent stations had to fill a vast expanse of air time with comedy,
    adventure, mystery, drama and music, night after night. Itbs no surprise
    that
    producers and writers looked to outside sources, drawing some of old-time
    radiobs
    most beloved characters (Sherlock Holmes, Tarzan, Hopalong Cassidy, Buck
    Rogers) directly from books.

    This work examines individual characters that jumped from prose to radio and
    a number of programs that specialized in dramatizing literature. It covers
    mystery and detective shows, adventure stories, westerns, and science fiction,
    and anthology shows that adapted novels by such greats as Twain, Steinbeck and
    Dickens. The text explores how the writers and producers approached the source
    materialb"what they changed, what they kept and what they left out.

    Subject:  "Don Wilson (sic) of the Navy"

    I caught a few minutes of _When Radio Was_ last night, specifically the first
    few minutes and the closing of _Don Winslow of the Navy_ (in the interim I
    did a brief bit of shopping). At the end, the host identified the program as
    "Don Wilson of the Navy." Ordinarily that gaffe wouldn't be worthy of a
    comment, since it's not unheard of for someone to mispronounce a name.

    [removed]

    I've noticed a lot of, shall we say, lack of attention to detail when
    listening to this new incarnation of _When Radio Was_. Which may be one
    reason I no longer listen to it very often. On many occasions, the host
    doesn't give the title of a particular episode of a show, and the episode in
    question does have a title. At best he gives the date. One case in point is
    the _Light's Out_ episode "Murder Castle", which I have on tape, and which is
    identified by title. It aired a few weeks ago, and he described it as being
    about (paraphrased) "a nice old man who's anything but."

    Since that particular episode has a name, why not identify it as such?

    There have also been occasions where the host doesn't even name the second
    series to air in a particular program, let alone the name of the episode (and
    I think that was once the case with the _first_ program in the broadcast).
    You might not know you're listening to _Jack Benny_, for instance, until Don
    Wilson (the one _not_ in the Navy) touts the merits of Jell-O (in six
    delicious flavors).

    Am I the only one annoyed by this apparent "phoning it in" approach to
    presenting the audience with basic information about the shows on a
    particular broadcast of _When Radio Was_?

    I first listened to the show in the tail end of the Art Fleming days. And I
    listened a lot during the Stan Freberg run. I was somewhat disappointed with
    Chuck Schaden's tenure, because he often sounded like he was phoning it in,
    an irony considering his long relationship with OTR and his many interviews
    with OTR stars; but as someone suggested at the last Cincinnati convention,
    Schaden was likely recording his introductions and other comments separately,
    and they were then edited into the broadcasts.

    That may be so (and may have been so for all the other hosts), but whatever
    the faults with his apparent level of enthusiasm, Schaden still told you what
    programs you were listening to (as did Fleming and Freberg).

    Plus, he included occasional interviews with people, such as Terry
    Salomonson, who have connections with OTR.

    This new [removed] it just doesn't draw me in. Frankly, if I was new to OTR,
    I'm not sure I'd stick around to hear the actual shows being broadcast.

    Like I asked, is anyone else annoyed by this new incarnation of _When Radio
    Was_?

    For that matter, does anyone know why the show has always been about 45
    minutes in length, giving us one half hour show and the first half of another
    show (usually a comedy?)? Wouldn't it make more sense to make it a full hour,
    giving us two full shows (or one hour-long program)?

         I first heard Bob and Ray around the Spring of 1957, as a high school
    sophomore. One of the very first skits involved an "interview" with a
    character who was supposedly engaged in a coast-to-coast SWIM across the
    United States, using a water-filled truck.

        There was just one problem, he admitted:

        "Whenever the truck runs uphill or down all the water runs out."

    The longstanding quibbling over the "first commercial" has unfortunately
    obscured what was *truly* important about WEAF -- it was the first radio
    station to be established *for the specific purpose* of selling time.
    This idea of "toll broadcasting," the idea that the station would be
    merely a rented hall for the use of sponsors paying for the privilege of
    addressing the audience, was a vital innovation in 1922 -- and would be
    the essential catalyst in moving broadcasting out of the realm of
    experimenters and hobbyists and making it a viable, independent field of
    business. "Toll Broadcasting" was the foundation stone of the entire
    Golden Age of Radio, and as such, WEAF's historical importance is not in
    the least eroded by the fact that, strictly speaking, it did not
    broadcast the first commercial. It wasn't the commercial itself at all
    that mattered -- it was the *reasoning behind* the commercial that was
    important.

    If you check out  [removed] you will find 42 one-hour programs
    featuring big band people including Charlie Ventura, Artie Shaw, Gene Krupa,
    and many others. These are interviews and examples of their music, hosted by
    Arnold Dean, as presented as a monthly feature by WTIC radio in the 1970s.

    At the same site, you'll find more than 90 hours of interviews and excerpts
    from "The Golden Age of Radio," hosted by Dick Bertel, also of WTIC. These
    shows include interviews with Vincent Price, Agnes Moorehead, Jack Benny,
    Mel Blanc, Robert Montgomery, and one of my favorites, organist Rosa Rio,
    who at age 104 is still entertaining audiences. All programs are MP3s, and
    can be listened to live or downloaded. No registration or log in required.

    Two notes of interest related to Alfred Hitchcock AND old-time radio.

    A new book hits book stores this week. THE ALFRED HITCHCOCK STORY by Ken Mogg.
    Titan Books has just published a new edition of this book (originally
    published years ago in Australia) and it features a chapter about Alfred
    Hitchcock's work on radio.

    The chapter is similar to an article that appeared in an issue of SPERDVAC's
    Radiogram some years back.

    Second, just the other day I came across a new entry for Hitchcock's radio
    credits.
    August 27, 1937   Alfred Hitchcock guested on "MOVIE CLUB"

    This date is very significant as it is now the earliest documented appearance
    on Hitchcock on American radio. THE ROYAL GELATIN HOUR with Rudy Vallee was
    formerly the earliest known appearance.

    Subject:  Re: Roommate wanted for FOTR

    Arlene Osborne asked me to post this to the digest for her.

    Would you please post a note to the OTR Digest for me saying that
    I'm looking for a roommate (preferably female) for the FOTR?  They can
    send me email directly at OsborneAM@[removed]

    I would really appreciate it.  We expect to be there starting Wednesday night.
    If I don't find a roomie, I'll be stuck at home!
