ALKA SELTZER TIME

was broadcast in October 1953 Monday through Friday. It appears in the NYT at 12:00 noon as Curt Massey Time. The NYT used generic show titles when sponsors' names were part of a show title.

53-10-17 a Saturday show is misdated. The show only ran Monday through Friday. It may be the Wednesday Oct. 14 show, which is missing, but that is speculation.

53-11-16 The Collegiate Ra Ra Ra (Monday date) should be 53-11-06 (Friday). Date matches radiogoldindex, falls in pattern with the other shows preceding it, matches Wisconsin State Journal and end of show says Tune in Monday.

ALL-AMERICAN SPORTS SHOW

53-09-15 Graham McNamee should be 53-09-18 based on date of next day's Missour-Maryland football game and newspaper listings

53-09-25 Brooklyn Dodgers (last show) should be 53-10-02

ALL STAR WESTERN THEATRE

461006 09 Billy The Kid - Tex Ritter was likely from 4601xx, possibly an audition. The next week's guest and show is given as Johnny Mack Brown in the story of Wild Bill Hickok. That was not the guest on show 10. Also, the shows from Sept and October 1946 did not announce the next week's guest or story. Instead, they say "Next week another great star and a story of the West." Correct date provided by RGI. That page has since changed to say 461006, but I doubt that is right. The old page is at http://web.archive.org/web/20020906203143/http://www.radiogoldindex.com/cgi-local/p2.cgi?ProgramName=All-Star+Western+Theatre

19xx.xx.xx Foy Willing Tex Williams (19 minutes) (also seen as 470823 055 Tex Williams) is sponsored by Dickies Clothing and does not give a show title. It is likely an episode of the Foy Willing Show. There is a 5 minute clip from this show circulating as 47-08-23 (055) Musical only. The 19 minute version seems to be two different shows spliced together.

There are 2 differing orders of show titles circulating for this series. I don't know which is correct, but when the first set is run through Otter, these errors occur:
