     Has anyone else noticed that Casey, Crime Photographer never takes any photos? I 
don't even recall any reference in any episode to him even carrying a camera!
     Maybe he spends too much time at the Blue Note Tavern!

Hi [removed]

   I am looking for one or two people to trade copies of the beloved 
CBS RADIO MYSTERY THEATRE (1974-1982) with me.  I have a list of just over
a hundred complete CBSRMT shows, and I'm looking for more!  If you are
interested in trading copies of this series, on cassette only, please let
me know. Thanks!

>From the different descriptions of PEP that I saw here, it seemed that at 
least two different cereals were being described. I might as well either 
add to the confusion or at least create some ( ;<)   .     First of all, I 
didn't know that Kellogg's quit making the stuff (which may give you the 
idea that I've been on some other planet for the last few or more years). 
Secondly, the way I remember the stuff, it was a rather undistinguished 
version of GM's "Wheaties." But then, I could never tell the difference 
between PEP and Corn Flakes either, except for the flake size. I also 
remember one of Arthur Godfrey's radio commercials for a cereal of that ilk,
 "It doesn't snap; it doesn't crackle; it doesn't pop. It just sits there 
and gets soggy."  The way God intended.

Message-ID: <[removed]@[removed]>

In regards to no commercials - many of the shows were rebraodcast over 
the Armed Forces Radio Network, where commercials were edited out.  This 
is disconscerting when the commericial was part of the "show" as it was 
many times on the Jack Benny Program.  A lot of the transcritions we have 
are from the AFRN.

Bosco?  Does this mean you've turned your back on Ovaltine?  *gasp!

Maypo.  Now there's a cereal I can relate to.  The TV commercial of the
early 60s is indeliably imprinted on my memory, and I was lucky enough
to find a copy of it on a cheap videotape.  Was Maypo (a delicious hot
cereal for those of you who haven't tried it - and it's probably too late
coz I hassn't seen it on the shelf in YEARS) a part of OTR, ala Hot
Ralston?

   There was a show from the 50s called Just Entertainment with
   Pat Buttram out of Chicago.  Now someone has told me that there
   was also a show called Just Entertainment with Burgess Meredith.
   Pat was on CBS and apparantly Burgess was on NBC.  I can't find
   a written reference to the Meredith show.

Message-ID: <[removed]@[removed]>

A local radio station has a trivia quiz that asks "Who never was heard 
on Duffey's Tavern?" Having never heard Duffy's Tavern I haven't the 
slightest guess unless it was Duffy. Anyway, does anyone know the answer 
to this question?

Thanks.

Hi [removed]

   Please exuse this message if you have seen it before, but I sent it in
to the otr digest a few days ago but never saw it show up here, so I'm
sending it [removed]

   I'm looking for a few people who might be interested in trading copies
of the CBS RADIO MYSTERY THEATRE (1974-82) with me.  I have just over 100
shows, and I'm looking for someone else who has them also but wanting to
trade for more.  E-mail me directly if interested, and we'll trade lists
of what CBSRMT's we each have to trade.  Thanks!

Max!  You lazy bum! the date of The Lottery is March, 14 1951, and, as 
already noted, was done on NBC Short Story.

I have a question in a similar vein.  I've always wondered whether Kate 
Chopin's story, The Awakening, was ever done on radio?  Anybody know?
