    Michael Biel [email protected] Time Shifting by the Networks The following posts by Elizabeth McLeod, a broadcast journalist and a free-lance broadcast historian specializing in the late 1920s and early 1930s, are reproduced with her permission. Date: Sun, 29 Mar 98 22:23:55 -0500 From: Elizabeth McLeod ([email protected]) Subject: Re: By Means of Electrical Transcription... I'm confused about when the practice of pre-recording (transcribing) radio shows began. I recall reading that the Bing Crosby show was the first transcribed network show (and I seem to recall a Crosby show in which guest star Grade Alien says "this isn 't radio, it's a transcription "), but I also seem to recall that Amos and Andy were distributed on disk. My confusion was added to when I read the little book that comes with the first Smithsonian set of Superman episodes (great set, btw) since there is a reference to prerecording the shows, but I know that The Lone Ranger and such were sometimes performed more than once for different time zones. What's confusing you is the difference between network shows and syndicated shows. "Amos 'n' Andy," when it began in 1928 was distributed by syndication by the Chicago Daily News on 78rpm records -- the first radio program to be pre-recorded in such a manner. This continued thru mid-August of 1929, and ended when the program went to NEC. Many syndicated shows followed in the late 20s and early 30s, including comedies, dramas, serials, and musical features. These were shows produced by independent packagers and sold to stations without the need for wire-line connections.

POLITICS AS USUAL: FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT, THOMAS DEWEY AND THE WARTIME PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN OF 1944 A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Michael A.

Further reproduction prohibited without permission. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the U.S. wartime presidential campaign of 1944. In 1944, the United States was at war with the Axis Powers of World War II, and Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt, already serving an unprecedented third term as President of the United States, was seeking a fourth. Roosevelt was a very able politician and-combined with his successful performance as wartime commander-in-chief-- waged an effective, and ultimately successful, reelection campaign. Republicans, meanwhile, rallied behind New York Governor Thomas E. Dewey. Dewey emerged as leader of the GOP at a critical time. Since the coming of the Great Depression -for which Republicans were blamed-the party had suffered a series of political setbacks. Republicans were demoralized, and by the early 1940s, divided into two general national factions: Robert Taft conservatives and Wendell WiIlkie "liberals." Believing his party's chances of victory over the skilled and wily commander-in-chiefto be slim, Dewey nevertheless committed himself to wage a competent and centrist campaign, to hold the Republican Party together, and to transform it into a relevant alternative within the postwar New Deal political order.

When the Great Depression called into question U.S. manifest destiny, Americans reified their divine chosenness first through a “good neighbor” national image and later through a narrative imagining the United States as a righteous nation battling evil enemies.

    Pre-LP Recordings of RCA at 33 1/3 rpm. through 1931 to 1934 by Ted Fagan Once it had been proved that sound could be reproduced, the next steps entailed improvement of quality, expansion of versatility and increase in the amount of material that could be fitted on the discs or cylinders. Many experiments were made with different playing heads and needles, bigger discs and cylinders, narrower grooves and, finally, slower speeds. This is not the place to enter a study of the differences between the materials used for diaphragms on the playing heads, nor for the manufacture of needles, except for a passing mention of this later. Sizes of the records themselves went from 5 inches to 18 and groove widths varied from 150 per inch to 450. By 1930 the engineers had discovered that a recording speed of 33 1/3 revolutions per minute could be controlled, relied upon and to a large extent, avoided the distortion that usually spoiled the sound when the grooves get closer to the central spindle. In 1931, the company issued brochures and catalogues that announced the advent of a new technique which permitted recordings at this slower speed. One of these catalogues is quoted extensively in Oliver Read and Walter Welch's book From Tin-foil to Stereo (pp. 292 et seq). The crucial portion of the announcement reads: " ••• now the Long Playing Record takes its place in the Victor Catalogue. A policy of recording all major works on both standard and 33 1/3 rpm. records has been adopted. The playing time has been fixed at such length that no sacrifice of musical quality - inevitable if the grooves are carried too near the center of the record - need be made ••• " Commercially, however, the slower playing records were not a great success.

  • Anita Stewart
    Anita Stewart Also Known As: Anna Marie Stewart, Anna Steward, Mrs. Rudolph Cameron, Mrs. George Converse Lived: February 7, 1895 - May 4, 1961 Worked as: company director, composer, film actress, novelist, producer, singer Worked In: United States by Hugh Neely Anita Stewart began her career as an actress at the Vitagraph Company in 1911, and rose to become one of the most popular stars of the teens. In 1918 she started Anita Stewart Productions, in partnership with Louis B. Mayer, and began to produce her own feature films for First National Exhibitors Circuit. Anita Stewart Productions produced seventeen feature films between 1918 and 1922. After concluding her association with Mayer, Stewart accepted an offer from William Randolph Hearst to appear in Cosmopolitan Productions. She continued to make films with Fox, Columbia, and lesser studios through the end of the silent era, appearing in her last feature in 1938. Born Anna Marie Stewart in Brooklyn in 1895, she was the middle of three siblings. Her older sister Lucille Lee and younger brother George also became film actors. Lucille Lee Stewart was the first to work in films, starting with the Biograph Company in 1910, and shortly thereafter moving to the Vitagraph Company, where she met and married director Ralph Ince, younger brother of Thomas Ince. Anna Marie Stewart was a high school student who had done a little modeling when Ralph Ince telephoned to say he needed some extra juveniles for a film. After her start in early 1911, sixteen-year-old Anna quickly became a Vitagraph regular, appearing in vehicles that featured the “Vitagraph Girl,” lead actress Florence Turner.
