Classic Radio for September 13, 2023 - Shhh...quiet please, Irma, and a Lum and Abner Road Trip

Shows and news from 75 years ago, September 13, 1948

First, Ernest Chappell scares you with an episode of Quiet Please from September 13, 1948, Symphony in D Minor. A blind hypnotist gives a post-hypnotic suggestion to his wife's lover. He orders the lover to kill the wife when he hears the Cesar Franck symphony - that happens to be the program's theme song.

Next, Marie Wilson confuses and bewitches many in My Friend Irma from September 13, 1948. Joan Banks took over the role of Jane from Cathy Lewis while Lewis was ill. After Jane spends their $200 savings paying off the loan on the piano, Irma takes the same $200 out of the bank and buys a half pound diamond!

Finally Lum, Cedric, and Grandpap head for Lost Wages - er, Las Vegas - in an episode of Lum and Abner from September 13, 1948. It’s a full car with Lum, Abner, Ben Withers, Grandpap...and his dog! Thanks to Ted at Radiomemories.com for this episode.
