Good to see Jerry get nominated for the Radio Hall of
Fame. Jerry is among many ex-ball players who have
moved from the playing field to the booth and become
legends for the interesting things they've done to the
English language. My personal favorite came from Jerry
doing the postseason on CBS radio describing a basehit
by the shortstop of Cincinnati's Big Red Machine: "...
and (Davey) Concepcion slides into second with a
stand-up double!" HUH?

And speaking of ex-players in the booth, I heard Joe
Nuxhall on Reds Radio tonight. During the late '70's
and through the '80's the Houston Astros had a
shortstop by the name of Craig Reynolds, who Nuxie
invaribley referred to as "Frank Reynolds." Wonder
which evening newscast the Ol' Lefthander [removed]

The LA Times notes that computer generated films are increasing the demand 
for OTR-style soundmen in modern movies, where the art is known as "Foley."

Nice to see this great art form living on.

       I noticed the name of Irene Castle on the recent births/deaths list
for
OTR.  I seem to recall a dance team known as Vernon and Irene Castle.
Could this be the same woman, or is it someone totally different?  And, BTW,
wasn't there a movie (probably by MGM studios) on this pair starring Fred
Astaire and Ginger Rogers?  I believe the name of it was "The Life of Vernon
and Irene Castle", but I could be wrong. The list has her as an actress only.

Another OTR Fan,

Attention Old Time Radio readers,

              While listing in to some tapes I was thinking about poor man's
versions of popular radio shows. These were those syndicated programs that
tried to imitate network series. Examples would include: The Avengers/The
Poor Man Shadow, The Blue Beetle/ The Poor Man Green Hornet, The Haunting
Hour/The Poor Mans inner sanctum mysteries, and other show of its type and
Diary of Fate/The Poor Mans whistler. Did these syndicated programs get good
ratings and did they mainly air on non-network stations, and on the related
topic, who played the voice of Fate on the Diary of Fate?

  Many thanks

              -Jim

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" This
lead-in to the hugely popular radio show that aired from 1930 to 1954 is
still recognizable today, albeit in Jungian circles predominantly.
