"Lum and Abner" - July 7, 1948. Episode title: "Lum and Abner Are Having Trouble Paying Their Back Taxes." "Lum and Abner" was a popular quarter-hour program that ran two, three, and five days a week starting in 1931. It was so popular that the town of Waters, Arkansas, changed it's name to Pine Ridge -- the fictitious city where the show was set -- in 1936. To this day, the Jot em Down Store and Lum n Abner Museum are located there. Well, in 1948, CBS decided to move the boys to prime time and make it a full typical comedy show. The show only ran a season, mainly because the writers didn't get the characters as well as Lum and Abner did. Chester Lauck and Norris Goff, in addition to performing as all the characters in the first 16 years of the show, also wrote all the episodes. The new writers and the new actors brought in to play those characters didn't get it. So from 1950 to 1954, "Lum and Abner" went back to their roots. But failing health brought an end to the show and precluded the show moving to TV and continuing in radio. But reruns of the show continued into the 1970s in syndication.

"Barrie Craig, Confidential Investigator" - originally aired July 6, 1954. Tex and Angie used to be sweethearts. They grew up together on a rough estate and got engaged at 14. Tex came out of jail last week after serving a five-year sentence for robbing a payroll messenger. The court never got Tex to tell where the $28,000 that was stolen was, and the first thing he did was look Angie up to get the sealed envelope he had left with her with directions to the money. When Tex could not find the money, he believed that Angie or his brother had double-crossed him.
