Hi Gang!

      If "BOSTON Market " merged with "BLACK & Decker" and then merged with
"E-bay," would they be
"BOSTON BLACK-E"?

Just wondering in the ether,

	Subject:  Phil Harris in the Movies

	        Stephen Kallis reminded me of a wonderful movie from my
childhood,
	"Goodbye, My Lady".  I have no recollection of Phil Harris in this
movie --
	not surprising, since I last saw it at age 10 or 11 45 years ago!
But I
	sure remember loving the movie on the big screen at the Old Trail
Theater.
	Is it available on DVD?

	        Harris had a small role in "The Wheeler Dealers" in which James
	Garner played his "Maverick" / "Support Your Local Sheriff" - type
role.
	It's still a hoot 40 years on.  My sons and I watched it a month ago.
Lee
	Remick popped their eyes out.  In any case, it looked as if all
involved had
	a wonderful time making the movie.  In addition to Harris, there are a
	number of OTR figures in the movie, including Jim Backus.

	Earlier this week I reported seeing Phil Harris in a movie.  Last
night I
	was watching a couple episodes of PETER GUNN, Blake Edwards jazzy TV
series
	from the late 50's, early 60's.  In an episode from 2/23/59, I kept
watching
	one of the characters and thinking his face was familiar.   Sure
enough,
	when the end credits rolled there was the name William (we know him as
	Billy) Idelson.  Interestingly, his list of TV guest appearances on
IMDB
	does NOT include this one.  However, I did note that on 2/17/59 he
appeared
	in a DRAGNET episode.  Two TV appearances about a week apart.

	Subject:  SUPERMAN

	  Following up on Anthony Tollin's post on Superman:

	  The radio program was also responsible for much of the history and
	mythology of the character.

	  The radio program introduced the character of Jimmy Olsen before he
	appeared in the comic book, the same is true for the characters of
	Inspector Henderson and Daily Planet Editor Perry White.

	  Also, kryptonite was used on the radio program years before it was to
	appear in the comic books.

	  The cartoons mentioned by Anthony also used voices from the radio
	cast.

	  The Superman movie serials were adapted from the radio program and
not
	from the comic book.

	  Superman teamed up with Batman and Robin long before they appeared in
	World's Finest comic book, published by [removed] comics.

	  Also in one radio episode when Superman was working with Batman,
Clark
	Kent told Bruce wayne he signed his name (Clark Kent) right handed and
	signed Superman's name left handed, so as to disguise his dual
identity.
	Later Batman and Robin, in their comic books started using this same
	procedure.

	  So as you see, the radio program had a lot to do with the character
in
	establishing many many of the comic book tales.

	Subject:  Just Plain Bill

	Joe Mackey gives us  insightful walks down memory lane.  His facts
about
	Just Plain Bill were incredibly on the money, save one.  "Bill"
didn't land
	on the air on September 19, 1935 as stated, giving him but 20 years
to pull
	the locals out of trouble.  The early hairstylist of Hartville turned
up
	instead on September 19, 1932, becoming the Hummerts' (and radio's)
first
	true serial with "staying power."  In fact, that success--and two more
	washboard weepers to follow in 1933 (The Romance of Helen Trent and Ma
	Perkins)--established a pattern that the intrepid pair of aural
creatives
	would repeat successfully again and again.  Their whole empire, I
maintain
	in "Frank and Anne Hummert's Radio Factory," actually rested with those
	three, and the beginnings of it were vested in Just Plain Bill.
"Bill,"
	incidentally, lasted to September 30, 1955, when NBC had "a better
idea" and
	canceled it and several other daytimers to clear the way for its
Weekday
	magazine.  Ten months later, never admitting its colossal mistake, the
	network quietly replaced Weekday with soap operas, since few were
listening.
	But the longstanding tradition with America's housewives had been
	broken--they had TV soap operas then, and the legacy of Hartville and
many
	other mythical hamlets was abandoned.  The chimes chain would never
regain
	its regal splendor during weekdays.  Too late somebody relaized that
Just
	Plain Bill's contribution was more than minor.

	Subject:  Ellery Queen

	Sorry about the late posting - just got electric an hour ago - first
time
	I've seen the light in three days.
	Some woman named Isabel came through, tore up the property and took
away the
	power.
	Anyway . . . now that I can read my e-mails . . .

	Kermyt Anderson asked:

	> How did they manage to have Ellery Queen as a guest,
	> since "Ellery Queen" was the pseudonym of two cousins,
	> Fred Dannay and Manfred B. Lee, who wrote mystery
	> novels? I read someplace that one of the cousins would

	> everybody knew that there was no such person as Ellery
	> Queen. So who was pretending to be him?

	Actually it was the character of Ellery Queen, not the creators who
made the
	guest appearance.  Sydney Smith took over the role of Ellery in
August or
	September of 1943 and less than a year later, the producer of the radio
	program THE ADVENTURES OF ELLERY QUEEN decided to contract Smith to
go and
	make a number of appearances on other radio programs to promote the
series -
	mainly for publicity reasons.  As a publicity gimmick NBC was keeping
the
	identity of the actor who played Ellery a secret, and in newspaper
stories
	dealing with the series he was usually photographed with his back to
the
	camera.  More interesting was one photo that appeared in an early
magazine
	article (RADIO MIRROR if I recall) that actually featured Hugh Marlowe
	(radio's first Ellery Queen)!  But shortly after that, NBC pretty
much kept
	the identity of the actor a secret.

	During the summer of 1944, the character of Ellery Queen made a guest
	appearance on THE TEXACO STAR THEATER starring Fred Allen.  As Kermyt
	mentioned, another apperance was THE COLGATE SPORTS NEWSREEL starring
Bill
	Stern, broadcast September 1, 1944.  Ellery was even a guest
detective on
	the radio quiz program QUICK AS A FLASH for at least two broadcasts,
January
	21, 1945 and October 21, 1945.

	The character of Ellery Queen was a pseudonym of two cousins, Fred
Dannay
	and Manfred B. Lee.  Shortly after their novels became a big hit,
they did
	make a number of book signings, but during their early years only one
of
	them would show up at the signing, keeping his face under a black
mask to
	keep the readers involved in the mystery of what Ellery Queen looked
like.
	But their mystery could not be contained for long.  Columbia Pictures
was
	the first to catch in on the commercial property and by the
mid-1930s, they
	released two movies (one with Donald Cook in the role) and by that
time,
	many people (not all of them) realized that the Ellery Queen
character was
	not a real life person.

	Incidentally, by the time the ELLERY QUEEN program went off in 1948, at
	least six different actors had played the lead.  As for whether the
entire
	listening audience knew that there was no such person as Ellery
Queen, it's
	doubtful.  My younger sister once thought that Ellery Queen was a woman
	until I explained it to her.  And many people still insist that Alfred
	Hitchcock wrote and directed all of the episodes of the television
series
	ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESNETS when the truth is, he never wrote a word,
and only
	directed eighteen during the ten years.  (People still think Alfred
	Hitchcock wrote all the forewards for his magazine and books when in
fact he
	never did.)  The ELLERY QUEEN MYSTERY MAGAZINE is still published
today and
	for a few decades, there was always an introduction written by Ellery
Queen
	for each issue - always penned secretly by the editor in chief of the
	magazine and signing an Ellery Queen signature at the bottom of each
	introduction.

	Ted, was this a video you were watching or a TV station?  To the best
of my
	knowledge, THE HIGH AND THE MIGHTY is one of the only John Wayne
movies that
	has been for the last few decades, tied up in legal battles.  Two
different
	entities (one being the John Wayne estate) claim to own the rights to
the
	movie.  It has been shown on TV on occasion but on VERY RARE
occasions.  No
	TV station would dare play the film without securing some permission
from
	someone and if that was so, I'd be curious to know what station so I
can
	drop an e-mail and see who they paid licensing for - I'd be curious
to know
	if the legal battle has been settled.  It's not a bad movie really,
Ted, but
	you apparently got a chance to see one of the truly rare John Wayne
movies
	ever filmed - it's not easy to come by.

	Don is correct, the mica capacitors seldom fail,  In all the

	Stop right there. For a Latin beat, I recommend obtaining a copy of Al
	Jolson singing "The Spaniard that Blighted my Life". (I seem to think
it was
	set to a Bolero tempo, but I could be wrong. In any event, you could
cobble
	a Latin dance number around it.

	In addition, I recently played Pancho at an OTR recreation of "The
Cisco
	Kid" a few months back (REPS in Seattle).There is a scene in it where
Pancho
	is dancing with a Senorita, and stepping on her toes. You might use
that to
	seque into a Latin Dance number.

	Sounds like a interesting project you are working on. I love ballroom
	dancing. Particularly. the "Tango". They don't call me "Twinkle Toes"
for
	nothing. :)

	recounting the company's history from radio to TV.

	"'CBS at 75' will be handled by Cates-Doty Prods., with Gil Cates on
board
	as exec producer. Louis J. Horvitz, the Emmy-winning director behind
the
	Academy Awards, will direct the special.

	"But just as ABC recently played it loose with the timeline for its
50th
	anniversary special, CBS is technically celebrating its 76th birthday
this
	year.

	"The Columbia Phonograph Broadcasting Co. (as the radio network was
then
	called) actually launched on Sept. 18, 1927, as a merger between
nascent
	network United Independent Broadcasters and the Columbia Phonograph
Co.,
	according to the Museum of Broadcast Communications.

	"CBS instead is recognizing January 1929 as its start date, when
William
	Paley bought the company and renamed it the Columbia Broadcasting
System."

	(Wait. According to their own definition, won't CBS be 74 on November
2nd?
	Then again, wasn't their 50th birthday just 5 years ago? Discuss.)

	          I may be showing my age a bit, but I remember the
	opening to "Superman" being slightly different.  (Of course,
	I may be remembering the classic  TV version.)  The one
	I remember went something like this:

	          "Faster than a speeding bullet.  More powerful than a
	locomotive.  Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.
	[removed] in the [removed]'s a bird, it's a plane, it's Superman!
	Yes, it's Superman, strange visitor from another planet
	with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men."

	          When I think of  "Superman", I remember the closing
	lines (which might have been used on radio or not)  which
	said Superman 'fought a neverending struggle for truth, justice,
	and the American way!'  (Was this just on TV?)

	Before I sought treatment for my sleep disorder I used to listen to
Art Bell
	as I lay awake at night.  I must say that much of the program content
on Art
	Bell could well be the basis for episodes of Twilight Zone.

	Regards to all,
