Then Amos ‘n’ Andy, originally broadcast January 6, 1952, 72 years ago, The Kingfish’s Resolutions. The Kingfish makes his New Year's resolutions. Included among them is a vow not to cheat Andy more...but then he learns about Andy's brooch that's worth $800!

Followed by The Jack Benny Show, originally broadcast January 6, 1952, 72 years ago, Suspense. The aftermath of the Rose Bowl are discussed. The cast does a takeoff on Suspense.

Then My Friend Irma starring Marie Wilson, originally broadcast January 6, 1952, 72 years ago, Irma the Author. Irma has written her memoirs and is looking for a publisher. The program is actually holding a "March Of Dimes Auction;" the highest bidder gets Marie Wilson's services for a day (as a secretary only!)

Followed by The Great Gildersleeve starring Harold Peary, originally broadcast January 6, 1946, 78 years ago, Ben Returns from the Navy. Ben (Played by Ben Alexander) is back from the Navy, but Marjorie isn't interested.

Finally Lum and Abner, originally broadcast January 6, 1942, 81 years ago, Abner takes over the Store and Bakery. Lum's bakery business is being neglected while he's training Mousie, so he gives the whole thing to Abner.
