Subject:  RE: Lindbergh Kidnapping

I looked for such for over a year, prior to my presentation on
Lindbergh Kidnapping at the 2008 Newark FOTR Convention. Other than
those re-created by "March of Time" I found only one. There exists a
December 1935 special on Mutual narrated by Seymour Birkson which
talks about that famous crime in "Top News Stories of 1935" and
surprisingly, it ranked only number two.

Jack French

OK, I'm curious: What was #1?

I know that there was a perverted child killer named Albert Fish who is
not that well known because he was tried about the same time as Bruno
Hauptmann, but this would have been a few years later, after Hauptmann
was caught trying to spend the gold certificates.

-- Tom Kirby

[removed] Don't confuse Albert Fish with Isidore Fisch, the man Hauptmann
said the gold certificates belonged to.

Subject:  Halo again

Our friend Stuart Lubin, referencing the Mr. & Mrs. North jingle for Halo
shampoo, believes he "read somewhere that its melody had come from a popular
song, or greeting, of the day."  I'm unable to answer that yet hopeful some
astute observer will throw some light there.  In the meantime, having
launched this thread, I'll persist:

>From its earliest days as an aural advertiser, Colgate-Palmolive-Peet --
whose breakthrough on the ether effectively dates to network radio's
beginnings -- aired some of the most charismatic tunes in audio commercials.
CP's bouncy jingles weren't only beguiling but prolific.  By the 1940s and
1950s, those strains emanated from several spots on the dial every week as
the manufacturer's glut of situation comedies, audience participation series
and mystery dramas replaced most of its earlier surfeit of soap operas,
variety shows and musical features.

Who could forget the memorable melody that accompanied this refrain?  "Halo,
everybody, Halo!  Halo is the shampoo that glorifies your hair, so Halo,
everybody, Halo!"  Or this ditty?  "Lustre-Creme is Hollywood's fav'rite,
Lustre-Creme shampoo ... It never dries ... It beautifies ..." et al.  Or
this?  "Brush your teeth with Colgate, Colgate Dental Cream, It cleans your
breath ... what a toothpaste ... while it guards your [removed]"  And one of
the great exhortations etched in the minds of listeners earlier:  "Super
Suds, Super Suds, Lots more suds with Super Suds!"

Colgate-Palmolive-Peet was one of the firms that left America singing.  And
its effective use of repetitive, playful numbers with easy-to-remember
lyrics translated frequently into cash registers ringing.  That had to be a
nice tune in any advertiser's ear.

Parenthetically, there are more words to these jingles than shown here.
Many of you know them.  Would you believe that some remain under copyright
laws?  Printing their text in full causes publishers to turn squeamish.  For
that reason, abbreviated forms suffice.

On aB recent digest Ron Sales mentioned in his birth and death dates:

03-22-1931 - William Shatner - Montreal, Canada
actor: "The Curse"; "No Love Lost"; "The Secretariat"

CanB  anyone tell me if those programs were part of a series, and if they are
available?

I do a OTR radio education program called "Before they were famous" and would
like to include Mr. Shatner as anB  example.

Subject:  Pennzoil Parade?

Just saw Ron Sayles' mention of a Harry Sosnick who appeared in the Pennzoil
Parade. I'm involved in the 150th anniversary celebration of the Drake Well
oil discovery, and I'd love to know more about the Pennzoil Parade (it
doesn't appear in Dunning.) Can anyone tell me more? They just tracked down
on of the Penny Pennzoils who worked trade shows in the '50s.

Off-list responses are fine. Thanks.

Subject:  Leon Janney

With the discussion recently about Leon Janney - you might want to listen to
an interview with Mr. Janney from 1976, as heard on "The Golden Age of Radio"
with Dick Bertel on WTIC in Hartford. All of "The Golden Age of Radio"
programs are at this website, including shows featuring people whose
birthdays are in March and April: Glenn Miller and Mandel Kramer in March,
and Leon Janney, Gale Storm, Lowell Thomas, Hans Conreid, Les Tremayne, Betty
Lou Gerson, Ken Coleman, and Robert Anderson were all born in April.

At the same site, you can hear "A One Night Stand with the Big Bands," with
Arnold Dean; featured on this series were Harry James, Duke Ellington, Gene
Krupa, and nearly every other big name in the Big Band Era.

Subject:  #OldRadio IRC Chat this Thursday Night!

A weekly [removed]

For the best in OTR Chat, join IRC (Internet Relay Chat), StarLink-IRC
Network, the channel name is #OldRadio.  We meet Thursdays at 8 PM Eastern
and go on, and on! The oldest OTR Chat Channel, it has been in existence
over nine years, same time, same channel! Started by Lois Culver, widow
of actor Howard Culver, this is the place to be on Thursday night for
real-time OTR talk!

Our "regulars" include OTR actors, soundmen, collectors, listeners, and
others interested in enjoying OTR from points all over the world. Discussions
range from favorite shows to almost anything else under the sun (sometimes
it's hard for us to stay on-topic)...but even if it isn't always focused,
it's always a good time!

For more info, contact charlie@[removed]. We hope to see you there, this
week and every week!
