Subject: Secretary Hawkins
One of my Elderhostel audience members last night, originally from
Cincinnati, remembers an old-time radio program she felt was called
"Secretary Hawkins." She had evidently acquired a book as a prize from
that program and wondered if I had heard of the show.
I have not. Have any of you?

Hi, All.
Please forgive this shameless plug, but with the recent discussion of
internet stations playing OTR (I'm a few days behind in reading my Digests),
I'd like
to offer one more: "Elite Syncopations" on [removed] I operate this
station, playing classic ragtime music through the week, but on Saturday and
Sunday
nights from 8-11PM EST, I play OTR shows that I encode from my collection. If
you'd care to drop by and have a listen, you can access the station at:

Happy listening!

Jim Arva
Dear Jim & all-
(First, can experts chime in on Stooge [Healy-era & after] radio work?)
[removed] I'm just a fan here, but that doesn't jibe with the portrait painted
in the authorized ABC-TV biopic - and more importantly, with what scholarship
I have read.
Healey's usually described as:
-unfairly dividing the group's income
-being cruelly rough on stage
-reacting with bitterness and threats to The Boys' success
If you've seen the filmed appearances from the Healy years, the man's work
does not wear well. He has little comic sense himself; he works the Frank Fay
"wise-ass" MC schtick like early Jack Benny or Bob Hope - but with much less
presence, & no warmth.
Best,
Craig Wichman

From: "George M. Kelly" <gkelly1@[removed];
Hardin's Bakery, where my mother worked, sponsored a Bre'r
Rabbit radio program that ran daily on WELO in Tupelo, Mississippi, in
the 50s. If memory serves it was five minutes in length. Does anyone
know anything about this show?
I don't remember a standalone Bre'r Rabbit radio program, and I can't
imagine it would have run only five minutes. But I remember there
was a Bre'r Rabbit comic strip in Puck the Comic Weekly, which was
dramatized regularly on The Comic Weekly Man. Could that be what you
remember? Could the bakery where your mother worked have been a
sponsor of that show?

Subject: SUSPENSE NOTES
I'd like to add my voice to the Suspense thee discussion. I find that there
are a few good good shows from the later years if one is willing to look and
be selective. In particular, William Robson show "The Paralta Map" (1957).
See also "Script By Mark Brady" which works especially with the 3-
commerical breaks dividing the show in 3 acts in which each characters tells
the murder from their own point of view. I am also fond of few early shows.
In particular the John Dickson Carr show "The Devil in the Summerhouse" is
one I especially enjoy from Suspense's first year.

Subject: SUSPENSE
Every season of radio's SUSPENSE had a few stand-out episodes worth
listening to.
Even the final season offered "The Black Door" for anyone who wants to feel
a chill down their spine.
In 1958, Dick Beals did a one-man performance for "Return to Dust" which is
an absolute must.
In 1956 or 1957, Vincent Price did "Present Tense" in a superb performance.
During the Auto-Lite years, many superb productions (including my personal
favorite, "The Wreck of the Ol' 97" - truly superb radio broadcasting) came
forth with Hollywood stars - "Death on My Hands," the two-part "Othello"
plus others.
Perhaps the best season was the 1948-1949 season, the first year Auto-Lite
sponsored the program. Tony Leader was the producer and director and more
top-notch productions were dramatized during that year than probably any
other . . . Agnes Moorehead in "The Trap," Vincent Price in "The Hands of
Mr. Ottermole," Ralph Edwards in "Ghost Hunt" and so on. Radio Spirits is
supposed to be releasing a "best of" SUSPENSE set shortly and that
collection will have about 99% of the best episodes of the series.

Subject: Three Stooges
Curly Howard suffered a stroke at one time and was regrettably replaced by
Shemp Howard as the next Stooge. Moe, Curly and Shemp were all real-life
brothers. Larry Fine was not related to the Howards if I recall accurately.
I forget the name of the short, but if you watch the first Three Stooges
short to feature Shemp Howard, you'll catch Curly sitting as one of the
passengers in the train. Although Curly couldn't play an active role, he
did get that one appearance in the short before passing away. There's also
a Stooge short (during the Curly years) when Lucille Ball plays a small role
as one of the many girls at an all-girl college. In my opinion, the
episodes with Curly were pure magic - throwing cans over a trash truck,
tearing apart a golf course, making beer during prohibition, starting a clay
fight at an art class and shooting grapes into the mouth of an opera singer
was hilarious. After Shemp came on, only a few of the shorts shined but the
shorts began to lack the humor.
I have always believed that the great depression was the major reason why
the Marx Bros. and the Three Stooges were popular. Both poor and rich went
to the movie theater but the poor (or less financially independent) often
found humor when the Three Stooges were messing up the plumbing in a rich
woman's house, delivering ice to a rich man's ice box (which kept melting
before Curly made it up the flight of steps), even the Marx Brothers who
literally ruined the Opera, crashed society parties ("Monkey Business") and
interupted the horse races at the Race Track. After the depression, like
the Marx Bros., it seems like the Three Stooges got involved with society,
rather than messing up - like operating their own tailor shop and or
becoming members of law enforcement. No more poking fun at the hoi poloi.
Has anyone else ever noticed this?

Can anyone help Greg?
John Cheever was a fiction writer whose works were adapted for radio and
television; he also wrote occasional teleplays (possibly radio plays as
well0).
Among the radio works I am aware of were adaptations of his "The Enormous
Radio" for CBS Radio Workshop and CBC's The Vanishing Point series, and "Pot
of
Gold" for NBC radio.
Do you know of good golden age TV sources for the especially obscure?

Hi,
I am behind in reading the Digest. Work and some health issues have slowed
me down a great deal.
I saw Max's post on True Boardman.
I remember meeting him in 1981 when Ron 'Staley and I, among others were
involved in a voice-over workshop with Vic Perrin. Over the years, True
and I crossed paths at SPERDVAC conventions as well as an occasional
Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters meeting before he moved to the Monterey
California area.
I will miss him.
He was truly one of the great story tellers, and great gentlemen of the
radio era.
