    Subject:  Young Johnny Carson

    Johnny Carson, after he was released from the Navy after WW2, went to
    college in Nebraska and earned a degree in Radio and Speech, intending
    to go into the radio industry. OK, we know how that worked out, but
    originally radio was his target industry.

    For his senior thesis, he completed an oral assignment recorded at the
    college radio station. For his project, Carson chose "How to Write
    Comedy for Radio", an examination of the techniques and devices that the
    behind-the-scenes writers used for comedians such as Jack Benny and Bob
    Hope to illustrate these comedy techniques.

    The 16" lacquers sold for over $4000 in 2005.

    Go to [removed] and search for radio transcriptions. You will
    have to sign in (free account) to read it. Sorry. It's not my site and I
    have no connection to it. I just like reading about this stuff.

    I have had 3 or 4 requests for the recording
    of Brace Beemer at the 1943 Midwest Farmer
    Days event.  If you missed this, write to me
    and I'll put you on my list.
