A Funny Friday

First a look at the events of the day

Then Father Knows Best starring Robert Young, originally broadcast October 18, 1951, 73 years ago, Gossip. Are the rumors about Hector and his wife true?  That’s what the gossip says...

We follow that with Fibber McGee and Molly, originally broadcast October 18, 1937, 87 years ago, Man on the Street Broadcast.   Fibber is conducting a, "Man-On-The-Street" radio program.

Then The Edgar Bergen Show with Charlie McCarthy, originally broadcast October 18, 1953, 71 years ago with guest Fred MacMurray.  Bergen tells Charlie about Achilles. Mortimer tries to sell his farm to Ray Noble. Charlie is forced to take a lie-detector test. The cast does a satire of, "The Caine Mutiny" called, "The Umbrella Uprising."

Followed by the Jack Benny Show, originally broadcast October 18, 1942, 82 years ago, Jack Donates the Maxwell to the Scrap Drive. The program originates from Williams Field, near Chandler Arizona. Jack turns in the Maxwell for the scrap drive! He then dreams that the car is a bomber, with Jack flying it on a mission to bomb Tokyo! 

Finally, Claudia,  originally broadcast October 18, 1948, 76 years ago. Claudia looks for a parking place.
