| Description | How a radio program is put together...this particular program. Graham mentions that the show is timed to 29:40. Odd letters to NBC are read. The sound effect of the week: the sound of thunder in the distance. A salute to, "The Royal Vagabonds." Ward Wilson recreates the program, which was on the air 1932 to 1933. Ward does several impersonations (quite well)! Letters from listeners are answered by David Gregory (radio editor of "Stage" magazine). Are radio stars exempt from Selective Service? What has become of Vaughn De Leath and several other early radio programs? The story of singer Carlotta Dale's fall out of a moving automobile. She also sings. |
