Did you ever have a dream in which you were running and running, running away from some grotesque horrible thing that was after you to kill you? And you scream and you keep running it runs too and no matter how you run, how fast you run it’s still after you. This thing, this thing runs fast and you can’t get away from it no matter where you turn. When you wake up you know you’ve been dreaming but the sweat soaks your body like a wet shroud and your heart beats wildly and you find it’s a silkscreen because even though you’re awake that thing is still there in the room with you. It clings like a leech.
Listen then to this story of a man and of a leech he couldn’t get away from but in this story the Leech was dead and it was human…

A mid fields of clover,
'T was just a little over a hundred years ago,
A handful of strangers,
they faced many dangers to make their country grow,
It's now quite a nation of wond'rous population,
And free from every king,
It's your land, it's my land,
A great do or die land,
And that's why I sing.
From all sorts of places,
They welcomed all the races to settle on their shore,
They didn't care which one,
The poor or the rich one,
They still had room for more,
To give them protection,
By popular election,
A set of laws they chose,
They're your laws and my laws,
For your cause and my cause,
That's why this country rose.
America, I love you,
You're like a sweetheart of mine,
From ocean to ocean,
For you my devotion, is touching each bound'ry line,
Just like a little baby,
Climbing it's mother's knee,
America, I love you,
And there's a hundred million other's like me.

This story is a dramatization of a real case of a missing person taken from the Missing Persons Bureau files in London but for obvious reasons names and addresses have been changed.
One of the strangest cases the missing persons bureau ever handled began one afternoon in March '57. Mr Clifford Moxon had arrived at the offices of Mr Henry Simon at the Missing Persons Bureau, to report his wife, Mrs Gwen Moxon as missing. According to Mr Moxon, she left him on 26th November, over four months ago, and although he has tried to locate her, he hasn't seen or heard anything since. As she was an only child, and both of her parents already passed away, there was no family to contact, and no friends that he is aware of. She has simply disappeared without a trace.

Let's go back to the perilous true story of the lost tomb of the ancient tribal Queen Tin Hinan. Behind the coastal cities of North Africa, stretches the burning wasteland of the Sahara Desert. Mysterious and brooding, the death dealing Sahara swallows men, beasts and machines; searing with heat, choking with sand, withering a man's skin to shrunken leather, sucking the last drop of moisture from his body until he falls, mad from thirst, into a white-hot grave under the merciless sun. Yet men have fought to learn the secrets of the Sahara, for it holds a key to the early origins of man...

In the old Indian territory, there were many men who lived their lives as fugitives from the law. Some of them became quite famous and their names were spoken in a whisper - even by strong men. One of these was a desperado called Willie the Wisp, a man who struck at night, always wearing a mask. Somehow the law could never seem to catch up with Willie. Whenever he robbed it was a rich rancher or a stage coach loaded with gold, or a mail train carrying valuable securities...

This is a story of the golden west as it was more than a hundred years ago, a land of mystery and intrigue, a romantic paradise where the dames and señoritas held their ancient customs while rubbing elbows with rugged american frontiersmen and pioneers, where lace trimmed handkerchiefs from Barcelona were carried next to the heart and the crude buckskin jackets. The territory was a melting pot, quiet on the surface like the pacific but torn with undercurrents and rip tides. It was a restless and growing land where the strong made their own laws and the weak obeyed or perished .
This is the saga of Brad Carver, a fabulous man in a fabulous land . Some called him an angel, some called him a devil and many claimed that he never lived at all but the story of Brad Carver is as colorful and exciting as were his roaring guns and flashing rapier as he cut a flaming swath through this glorious land...

But today, instead of churchgoers he sees a group of children, six or seven of them, walk briskly past, around the corner and off past the sunny trees.

A new type of question and answer game in which the public quiz the professionals. The public are invited to send in questions with their answers and if they are used on the show the sender gets $2. Further more if the professionals get them wrong the sender gets a further $5.
The show was created and run by Dan Golenpaul whose idea was to reverse the typical type of quiz show by allowing an intelligent, educated public ask the questions and put the alleged authorities on the spot. He certainly got the mix right by employing Clifton Fadiman as moderator of a panel of four experts, which would always include 2 or 3 regulars and guest personalities. Fadiman himself came from a background in books being a book critic for the New Yorker.
Other regulars included Science writer Bernard Jaffe, professor of philosophy Dr Harry Overstreet, Marcus Duffield of the New York Herald-Tribune and later John Kieran a sport's columnist for the New York Times and Oscar Levant a pianist and composer. What all of these had in common was their broad interests and knowledge and quick and slicing wit.
The intellectual questions were a catalyst for talk and the hilarious humor that emerged. "An uproarious error or a brilliant bit of irreverence was rated far above any dull deliverance of the truth," wrote John Kieran, one of the four major personalities. Go ahead and sample any of these shows and I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Fibber McGee & Molly was first broadcast in 1935 and ran in a variety of formats until the final broadcast in 1956. Jim and Marian Jordan played Fibber and his wife Molly in this hilarious domestic comedy. It was written and created by Don Quinn who had also written Smackout.
The show made good use of running gags. Probably the best remembered is McGee’s junk-filled closet, which always crashed down on anyone that happened to open the door.

One of our more popular American pastimes is attending garage and tag sales. There seems to be something about buying someone else's junk that fascinates most of us. But of course, not all garage sales offer junk. Some of them have some very usable merchandise, and occasionally, you might pick up a real antique. The garage sale we're about to visit now with Charlotte and Charlie Tucker, contains the belongings of a recently departed minister - a bachelor - who left his earthly possessions to his nephew, Richard Lumb. Let's join them on the lawn of the Lumb's home, in southern Pennsylvania.

This story is a dramatization of a real case of a missing person taken from the Missing Persons Bureau files in London but for obvious reasons names and addresses have been changed.
There are many attractions for the tourists in London in fact almost as many as there are tourists. Of all the attractions London has to offer there are none to compare for color and splendor as the pomp and ceremony of the changing of the guard. On this day Henry Simon head of the Bureau of Missing Persons had been held up in a traffic jam near Buckinham Palace by the changing of the guard on the same day he was visited in his office by an old friend Sir Robert Attwell whose son was a member off the royal guard.
He could tell be the look on his face that something was wrong. Sir Robert Attwells's son Anthony Attwell had disappeared without a trace. Last Tuesday afternoon he was on duty at Buckingham palace then shortly after three he was found missing from his post by one of the constables on duty. His bearskin helmet and coat were later found in a sentry box and Anthony was reported as a deserter. He hasn't been seen since.

A quiz show spoof that lampooned other quiz shows of the time such as Information, Please and The Quiz Kids. The format of the show was simple. Three nitwits made up the "board of experts". They spent more time trying to figure out what the question was than actually giving a sensible answer. The questions were as ludicrous as the ones in this episode “Why are women like the ocean? Answer: Because they never dry up!” or “Why doesn’t a regular soldier sit down? Answer: Because he belongs to the standing army!”.
Critics slated the show when it first appeared and said it wouldn’t last. They were wrong. The show ran for nine years.

"Helloooo below there. When the signalman heard my voice calling to him, he was standing at the door of his box, with a flag in his hand, furled around its short pole. One would have thought he could not have doubted the location from where the voice came, but instead of looking up, to where I stood at the top of a steep cutting over the railway line, he turned himself about and looked down the line. There was something remarkable about the man, and the way he stood. Something strange, perhaps uncanny.

“We take you now to England. If it only were as simple as that, if you could take a man like a radio wave and whisk him over the Atlantic and then drop him through a loudspeaker and let him wander for a month over the face of this island would he be any different at the end of his wandering? How would he feel about the war and about England? Would the United States look very much different to him from the outside, from the Anglo-American angle?”

"This was Elliott Roosevelt's day again today, before the Senate Committee investigating the Howard Hughes / Henry Chrysler plane contracts during the war. He was on the stand for five hours, morning and afternoon, in the historic Senate caucus chamber in Washington..."
The only surviving 'ABC Special Event' show was a melodramatic account, narrated by ABC's John Edwards, featuring excerpts from the congressional hearing of the infamous Howard Hughes investigation, involving the former President, Theodore Roosevelt's son, General Elliott Roosevelt.
In 1947, many people including Howard Hughes himself, were summoned to testify before the Senate Committee to explain the why, what, when, where and how an extraordinary amount of money had been spent during the development of commissioned war planes.
The hearings transfixed the nation during August and November 1947, and gave the listener at home the opportunity to form their own opinion on the fallout, from listening to many different witness testimonies, rather than reading a journalist's account in the newspaper.

This is a story of the golden west as it was more than a hundred years ago, a land of mystery and intrigue, a romantic paradise where the dames and señoritas held their ancient customs while rubbing elbows with rugged american frontiersmen and pioneers, where lace trimmed handkerchiefs from Barcelona were carried next to the heart and the crude buckskin jackets. The territory was a melting pot, quiet on the surface like the pacific but torn with undercurrents and rip tides. It was a restless and growing land where the strong made their own laws and the weak obeyed or perished .
This is the saga of Brad Carver, a fabulous man in a fabulous land . Some called him an angel, some called him a devil and many claimed that he never lived at all but the story of Brad Carver is as colorful and exciting as were his roaring guns and flashing rapier as he cut a flaming swath through this glorious land...

Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound! Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s SUPERMAN!
Based on the comic created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in 1938. Superman, disguised on earth as Clark Kent, “leads a never-ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way”.
In the storyline the true identity of Superman was closely guarded by the producers. If any of the peripheral characters discovered that Clark Kent was Superman they always ended up being killed of either by accident or by disaster. This situation was also mirrored in the real world. It wasn’t until 1946, six years into the run, that listeners discovered that Clayton Bud Collyer played the part of Superman.
