An hour of Comedy. First, a look at this date in history. Then The Stan Freberg Show from October 6, 1957, 66 years ago, Werewolves. "Cocktails For Two," "Gray Flannel Hat Full Of Teenage Werewolves," a great story about a werewolf who changes into a horrible monster in the daylight (an advertising executive). Followed by Jack Benny, originally broadcast October 6, 1946, 77 years ago, The World Series. Jack wants to listen to the World Series on the radio. Seems easy, doesn’t it? But it never is... And Lum and Abner, originally broadcast October 6, 1941, 82 years ago, The Correspondence School. Plans to hire Squire Skimp to drum up new business for the store are under consideration. The salesmanship book is abandoned.
