A Criminal Sunday

First a look at this day in History.

Then Dragnet starring Jack Webb, originally broadcast February 16, 1954, 71 years ago, The Big Sucker.   A con-man uses real diamonds to cheat unsuspecting victims, selling them cut glass after they've taken the bait. 

Followed by The New Adventures of Nero Wolfe starring Sydney Greenstreet, originally broadcast February 16, 1951, 74 years ago, The Case of the Party for Death. Archie attends a cocktail party at which Nero Wolfe expects the guest of honor to be murdered!

Then The FBI in Peace and War, originally broadcast February 16, 1955, 70 years ago,  Strictly Business. A swindler tries to run a racket around real estate, with a side dish of romance.

Followed by Barrie Craig, Confidential Investigator starring William Gargan, originally broadcast February 16, 1955, 70 years ago, the Moving Target.  A high-flying globe trotter finds that sheer elbow room is no insurance for survival when a felonious blonde makes a passionate effort to bring him down to earth...really deep down, that is. 

Finally Superman,  originally broadcast February 16, 1942, 83 years ago, The Ghost Car.  Clark Kent tries to spring a trap, but only gets himself, Lois Lane and Jenks (the real estate agent) trapped in the mine!
