  • "Command Performance"
    “Command Performance” (Episode No. 21)—Bob Hope, Master of Ceremonies (July 7, 1942) Added to the National Registry: 2005 Essay by Cary O’Dell Bob Hope Soldiers line up for a “Command Performance” performance Radio’s unique “Command Performance” series was the brainchild of producer Louis G. Cowan. Cowan had joined the radio division of the US War Department just prior to the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor. With the commencement of the war though, Cowan found his job suddenly changed: rather than producing shows for civilians, he now found himself charged with creating programs for thousands of new servicemen stationed all around the globe. So he happened upon an idea. Many new members of the armed forces were no doubt having to quickly and awkwardly adjust to their new regimented military existence, to the myriad of commands and orders they now had to obey. What would happen if, instead of taking commands, they were allowed to give them, at least in terms of entertainment? Similar in nature to TV’s later “You Asked For It!,” Cowan’s “Command Performance” would solicit requests from servicemen the world over and ask them what they wanted to hear over the air. Cowan and his radio staff would then do their best to make it happen for them. From the beginning, to show their support for the troops, performers of all types (recruited via letters and ads in “Variety”) were generous with their time and talents. And both CBS and NBC donated their studios and recording facilities to the production. Even the major unions and show business guilds relaxed their rules in order to do these shows for the war effort (with the caveat that the shows be heard only by military personnel).

  • {PDF EPUB} Dick Tracy the Thirties Tommy Guns and Hard Times by Chester Gould Chester Gould
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Dick Tracy the Thirties Tommy Guns and Hard Times by Chester Gould Chester Gould. Chester Gould is the creator of 'Dick Tracy' (1931), the world's most famous detective since 'Sherlock Holmes'. For 46 years, Gould captivated newspaper readers with his clever mix of suspense, grotesque villains, explicit violence, melodrama and well-documented use of scientific research methods. 'Dick Tracy' was the first newspaper comic strip with a more realistic approach. Its hard-boiled portrayal of violence and well- documented depiction of actual crime-investigating methods made it one of the most popular and influential comics of all time. Gould managed to capture the zeitgeist of the 1930s and 1940s and inspired many film noir stories set in the same time period. He was also a memorable caricaturist, particularly when creating his unforgettable ugly gangsters. Gould proved that comics could tell more mature stories with cliffhangers that kept readers looking out for the next episode. Countless daily, weekly and monthly serialized comics series have followed his path since. Early life and career Gould wasn't destined to become a newspaper cartoonist, though. He was born in 1900 in Pawnee, Oklahoma. His family was descended from original 19th century settlers in Oklahoma. His father was in the printing business, but didn't support his son's artistic ambitions. Among Chet's earliest art jobs were sign and window painting. The magazine The American Boy published his first cartoon during World War I, and he subsequently made editorial cartoons for the Tulsa Democrat and sports cartoons for the Daily Oklahoman.

  • [52] Sunday 10 June 1945 14 AA Command APO 322, Frisco
    [52] Sunday 10 June 1945 14 AA Command APO 322, Frisco Sweetheart; Here I am at the end of a fairly profitable day. Profitable in the matter of work accomplished that is. I did all the layout work for the lettering on the cover of the booklet we’re working on in the office. This afternoon I brought some drafting tools to the tent and then worked the biggest part of the afternoon on a new project I’m started on. I’ll let you know what it is when I finish it and see how it comes out. I think you will agree that it will be one of my best pieces of work till now. That’s all I can say. I downed a few beers this afternoon and evening and found that after three beers I was getting fairly woozy. I just can’t take it anymore. The beer was cold though and this made it quite palatable even though it was Hyde Park beer, not one of the world’s best brews. A fellow who works in the officers mess has some ice in a pail and since Kettler is a 2. good friend of his we all had out beer chilled. Later in the afternoon I knocked off working for a while and listened to Command Performance. Today it consisted of the operetta “The Wedding of Dick Tracy”. The main characters were: Dick Tracy – Bing Crosby Tess Trueheart – Bob Hope Chief of Police – Jerry Colonna Vitamin Flintheart – Frank Morgan Snowflake – Judy Garland Shaky – Frank Sinatra The Mole – Jimmy Durante The Summer Sisters – The Andews Sisters Gravel Gertie – Cass Daley You can imagine from this lineup what kind of program it was.
