Subject: War of the Worlds
At Martin Grams' Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention a couple of weeks
ago, he and I made a presentation about the War of the Worlds broadcast
and subsequent fall out. During that presentation, I mentioned a WNYC
Radio Lab show that was heard earlier in the year on the subject which
though somewhat over the top, was an interesting listen.
Now it seems Radio Lab will be in Chicago at the Victory Gardens Theatre
on Oct. 26 & 27 to repeat the performance. Unfortunately, that is when
the FOTR convention is going on, but for those in and about Chicago who
AREN'T going to FOTR, the Radio Lab show might be worth seeing/hearing.
It will be broadcast too, so you can hear it via the Internet or radio
(if your local station carries the show) at that time.

Subject: Connie Haines, RIP
Connie Haines died September 22nd at age 87 in Clearwater Beach, FL.
She was survived by two children from her first marriage, a sister,
three grandchildren, as well as her 109 year old mother, who
originally guided her professional career.
Born Yvonne Marie Antoinnette JaMais on January 20, 1921 in Savannah,
GA, she won a Charleston dance contest at age 5. Coached by her
widowed mother, she sang and danced at supper clubs in Florida, where
the family had moved after the death of her father. Successful as
"Baby Yvonne Marie" by age 10, she became a regular on the
Jacksonville NBC affiliate with her own show, "The Little Princess of
the Air." By age 14, her mother had taken her to NYC to continue her
radio career. While there she was auditioning for the William Morris
agency when Harry James heard the 17 year old singer and signed her
as his orchestra vocalist. James changed her name to "Connie Haines"
as her birth name could not fit on any marque. With the Harry James
Orchestra, her singing partner was a 23 year old Frank Sinatra.
The two singers later left the financially troubled James' orchestra
to sing with Tommy Dorsey's group, bringing them both to nation-wide
popularity. Haines continued her success on radio, becoming the
featured soloist on the program of Abbott & Costello. She also
appeared in several musical films, including Esther Williams'
"Duchess of Idaho." In the 50s, when rock & roll pushed the big band
sound off the airwaves, Haines formed a gospel quartette (with Rhonda
Fleming, Jane Russell, and Beryl Davis) which recorded and toured for
decades. In the 70s, she sang at the White House and continued with
musical appearances at clubs, theatres, and retirement centers.
Her autobiography, "Snootie Little Cutie" (named for one of her big
pop hits) was written by Richard Grudens (Celebrity Profiles
Publishing, 2000) and is available from many used book dealers on the
internet. It is very candid about her career, her religious beliefs,
(she became an ordained minister late in her career) and her abusive
first marriage.

This is also a day when you see what kind of staying power Jack Benny has had globally. We often lament on this list when running into people who have never heard of Eddie Cantor or Fred Allen or who have no concept of who Jack Benny is.
That said, writers today were able to site his comedy in reacting to the financial market crisis here:

Subject: This week in radio history 28 September to 4
October
From Those Were The Days --
9/28
1936 - Bachelor's Children debuted on CBS (at 9:45 [removed]) in addition to
its schedule on the Mutual Network (at 10:15 [removed]). The shows theme
song, Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life, opened the 15-minute, critically
acclaimed, daily serial. Bachelor's Children became very popular because
of its natural dialogue which made folks think they were hearing a real
event. Bachelor's Children ... brought to you by Old Dutch Cleanser,
Palmolive-Peet Soap, Colgate Toothpaste and Wonder Bread.
1939 - The final broadcast of The Fleischmann Hour was heard. The star
of the show, Rudy Vallee, wrapped things up after a decade of
entertaining radio.
9/29
1920 - Radios for 10 bucks! That's what Joseph Horne Company's
department store in Pittsburgh, PA was selling. The radios were
advertised in The Pittsburgh Sun for $10 and up. One could get a
ready-made radio in a box with headphones and tuning knob. This way, one
could do away with the Quaker Oats round box and the cat's whisker wire,
which was a pain to tune. (What cost $[removed] in 1920 would cost $[removed]
in 2007, [removed])
1930 - "This is Lowell Thomas." Those words were spoken for the first
time as a young Lowell Thomas made his debut on CBS. He replaced Floyd
Gibbons on the nightly (6:45 [removed]), 15-minute newscast. Thomas, who
started as a reporter for the New York Daily News (at age 19), was heard
on the radio for the next 46 years.
1930 - "Ba, ba, ba, boo. I will, ba ba ba boo ... marry you!" Bing
Crosby, America's premier crooner for decades, married Dixie Lee.
9/30
1930 - Death Valley Days was first heard on the NBC Red network this day
(and) became one of radio's biggest hits. The 30-minute,
Western-adventure series starred Tim Daniel Frawley as the Old Ranger,
Harvey Hays as the Old Prospector, John White as the Lonesome Cowboy,
Edwin Bruce as Bobby Keen, Robert Haag as Sheriff Mark Chase and Olyn
Landick as Cassandra Drinkwater.
The tales heard on Death Valley Days were all based on fact and were
human interest stories revolving around the borax mining town of Death
Valley, California. The show was created by Ruth Woodman, a script
writer for a New York ad agency. She had never seen Death Valley; but
had found the vehicle to sell 20-Mule-Team Borax. As time went on, Ms.
Woodman did make a trip to Death Valley. She went back again and again
after that, digging up facts for her scripts. She even met an
honest-to-goodness old ranger, Wash Cahill, who knew everyone and
everything about the mining town.
Death Valley Days was renamed Death Valley Sheriff in 1944 and The
Sheriff in 1945. And Ruth Woodman continued to write the scripts. She
even wrote scripts when Death Valley Days became a TV show. Buy some
20-Mule-Team Borax in commemoration.
1933 - The theme song was Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here and it opened
the National Barn Dance. The half-hour country music and comedy show,
originally heard on WLS, Chicago since 1924, moved to the NBC Blue
network this night. National Barn Dance was broadcast from the Eighth
Street Theater in Chicago, where the stage was transformed into a
hayloft every Saturday night. The host was Joe Kelly. Uncle Ezra was
played by Pat Barrett who was known to say, "Give me a toot on the
tooter, Tommy," as he started dancing. A few of the other Barn Dance
characters were Arkie, the Arkansas Woodchopper; Pokey Martin; the
Hoosier Hotshots; the Prairie Ramblers; cowgirl, Patsy Montana; Pat
Buttram; Lulu Belle and the Cumberland Road Runners. Gene Autry and Red
Foley were heard early in their careers on National Barn Dance. Although
there were plenty of sponsors (Alka Seltzer, One-A-Day vitamins,
Phillips Milk of Magnesia), the National Barn Dance was one of the few
radio shows to charge admission.
1935 - "Calling all [removed]" The Adventures of Dick Tracy came to radio
for the first time -- on the Mutual Radio Network. Based on the comic
strip created by Chester Gould, the 15-minute adventure show was heard
Monday thru Friday at 5:45 [removed] The sponsors were Quaker Puffed Wheat
and Quaker Puffed Rice.
10/1
1942 - People Are Funny went on the air with host Art Baker.
10/3
1901 - The Victor Talking Machine Company was incorporated on this day.
After a merger with Radio Corporation of America, RCA-Victor became the
leader in phonographs and many of the records played on them. The famous
Victrola phonograph logo, with Nipper the dog, and the words "His
Master's Voice", appeared on all RCA-Victor phonographs and record labels.
1946 - Dennis Day started his own show on NBC. Dennis, a popular tenor
featured on The Jack Benny Show, played the same (type) naive young
bachelor he played on the Benny show. A Day in the Life of Dennis Day
aired for five years.
10/4
1948 - Gordon MacRae hosted the premiere of a radio classic. The
Railroad Hour debuted on ABC. The theme song was I've Been Working on
the Railroad and the show was sponsored by -- get ready -- America's
Railroads.
