Westerns and Comedy on a Tuesday

First, a look at the events of the day

Then, Gunsmoke starring William Conrad, originally broadcast July 29, 1956, 69 years ago, The Lost Rifle. A young boy is found at the scene of a murder. It seems obvious that Ben Tipper, who hated the dead man, is the killer. 

Followed by Fort Laramie starring Raymond Burr, originally broadcast July 29, 1956, 69 years ago, Nature Boy. The Quiring family has come to the fort. The strangest trio ever to arrive on the western plains. 

Then Tales of the Texas Rangers starring Joel McCrea, originally broadcast July 29, 1950, 75 years ago, The Trigger Man. The story is based on the events of June 5, 1948. A dead man found in a burned-out house, a broken spur, and a fat man with small feet!

Followed by George Burns and Gracie Allen, originally broadcast July 29, 1940, 85 years ago, Kiddie Party.  George and Gracie are going to a "kiddie party" at the Cocoanut Grove. 

Finally, Lum and Abner, originally broadcast July 29, 1942, 83 years ago, Letter by Carrier Pigeon. Cedric has gone into the carrier pigeon business, so Abner sends a letter about the coat of arms to the man who placed the ad in the newspaper.
