    Subject:  Latitude Zero

    I came across an entry for the above-named show in Dunning's Encyclopedia and
    was intrigued by it. A Google search turned up a pretty positive review of it
    in a June, 1941 issue of Time. A sort of sci-fi series not aimed at kids in
    1941? This I gotta hear.

    So I found what was ostensibly a copy of it at [removed], except that it
    was mis-labeled and turned out to be something called Tony Won's Scrapbook.
    So, does anyone on this list happen to know where one could find a copy of
    what is apparently the only surviving episode of this serial?

    [ADMINISTRIVIA: I put a copy of the episode of Latitude Zero in the Digest's
    Copy folder for anyone who'd like to listen. If anyone has a better copy, or
    one without the contemporary radio show intro/extro music, drop me a note,
    and I'll replace the one I have.  --cfs3]

    In elementary school we  listened to cassettes of OTR and Amos and Andy had a
    show where they owned a restaurant. They were going to impress a food critic
    with "Crepe Suzettes". Well, as I recollect, they assumed the wrong person
    was the food critic. I want to find this episode

    Subject:  Adam J. Roslewicz, RIP

    A faithful member of both the Metropolitan Washington Old Time Radio Club and
    SPERDVAC, Adam died October 13, 2014 at St. Luke's Warren Hospital,
    Phillipsburg, NJ where he had been hospitalized for three weeks. He was 80
    years old; he and his beloved wife, Carole, (who died three years prior) were
    regular attendees at the Friends of Old-Time Radio Convention in Newark for
    two decades, where they met many Digesters.

    Adam was the Quiz Master of MWOTRC and created numerous quizes, which we
    published in RADIO RECALL. He liked to joke about the fact that he also lived
    in Washington (New Jersey, that is.) He and his son, John, drove down to the
    MWOTRC's 30th Anniversary Banquet in VA this June and both were in fine
    spirits.

    A Korean War veteran, he was a long-time supervisor at M & M's Mars of
    Hackettstown, NJ. His survivors include sons, John and Robert, and daughters,
    Susan and Teri, twelve grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren, most of
    whom live in the Lehigh Valley area of NJ and PA. There was no funeral; he
    was cremated and a private family service was held. (Info at
    <[removed]>)  Family requests memorial donations be sent to St.
    Jude Children's Research Hospital.

    Our club has been unable to contact family members. Adam's last address was
    135 S. Lincoln Ave, Washington, NJ 07882-2219 and we presume family members
    are still collecting his mail there.
