Subject: Lou R. Winston mystery
Radio Producers of Hollywood, located at 908 N. Western Avenue, Cal., was
responsible for syndicating a number of radio programs across the country.
Among them "The Ghost Corps," "Magic Island," "Wings of the Dragon,"
"Nemesis, Inc." "Bits of Life" and "Speed Gibson of the International Secret
Police."
The owner/operators of RPH was Lou R. Winston. I have been seeking
information about Mr. Winston as he was among the pioneers who marketed
transcription discs for syndicated radio programs, but have been coming up
empty handed. Anyone have any leads?

Subject: Marian Jordan's problem
The Marian Jordan mystery, apparently revealed on the BBC, did not make the
media in the US of the 1930s. While personal problems require a certain
amount of privacy, I am sure that more was going on in this case. Public
reaction to mental illness, as well as drug problems, was radically
different compared to today. Shame and "distancing" were powerful social
forces at that time. A physical illness was far more acceptable for the
public to find out about. It can be argued that going public on a mental or
drug problem at that time would have ultimately damaged her radio career,
and even damaged the very popular radio show. Today's audiences, although
far from perfect, are more understanding and supportive of such come backs
today. It could be argued that an accurate public announcement of her
problem would have actually helped others and drawn attention to the need
for mental illness treatment. But at what cost to "Fibber McGee and Molly!?"

From Those Were The Days --
6/7
1945 The NBC program The Adventures of Topper was heard for the first
time.
1955 NBC presented The Lux Radio Theatre for the final time. The
program had aired for 21 years.
6/8
1942 The comic soap opera Clara, Lu 'n Em was revived on CBS (the
original show began in 1931 on NBC). Clara, Lu and Em were together
again for just a short while before vanishing into radio oblivion.
1947 Lassie debuted on ABC. It was a 15 minute show about an
extraordinary collie. Animal imitator, Earl Keen provided the whines and
other dog noises. The announcer was Charles Lyon; Marvin Miller and
Betty Arnold played Lassie's owners. The sponsor was Red Heart dog food.
6/10
From [removed]
1909 An SOS signal is transmitted for the first time in an emergency
when the Cunard liner SS Slavonia is wrecked off the Azores.
From Those Were The Days
1924 The first political convention on radio was presented by NBC.
Graham McNamee provided coverage of the Republican National Convention
from Cleveland, OH.
6/12
1947 Sergeant Preston of The Yukon went national for the first time.
The show, with the Canadian Mountie and his trusty dog, King, continued
on the radio until 1955, beginning on WXYZ Detroit in 1938. Sgt. Preston
was created by George W. Trendle and Fran Striker, who also created The
Lone Ranger and The Green Hornet.
1955 The first network radio show to be produced with no script, The
University of Chicago Round Table, was heard for the final time on NBC.
The program was the first network radio program to win the coveted
George Foster Peabody Award.
1955 "This is Monitor, a weekend program service of NBC Radio," was
heard for the first time. Notables such as Bill Cullen, Ed McMahon, Hugh
Downs, and Dave Garroway recited this line. It was a network cue to NBC
radio stations across the nation who carried the long form news,
entertainment and variety broadcast from New York City. Stations and
listeners who were "on the Monitor beacon" were entertained for six
hours or more each Saturday and Sunday night for nearly two decades.
NBC's Monitor was one of the last live network radio programs on the air.
6/13
1944 The wire recorder was patented by Marvin Camras.

X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: from multipart/alternative
X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: Alternative section used was text/plain
I've heard that there were several OTR performers who suffered from a
condition
known as 'mike fright'. The two that I heard about were Marian Jordan (of
"Fibber
McGee and Molly") and Mary Livingstone (from "The Jack Benny Show"). I've
heard
both of these fine ladies perform on radio and they seemed to perform their
roles
rather well. Is it true that these ladies were victims of this condition?
How pervasive
was it among OTR performers? Is this condition just a myth?
As always,
Kenneth Clarke
