We shall start our formal discussion of the Conference at 8:30 EDT, 5:30 pacific
time. You will hear the many folks who were a part of this weekend, as they relive
and share their memories of the Conference.
As someone who has chaired 17 OTR conferences over the years, I can >say that without
a doubt, this was one of the best that I've ever attended.
The conference weekend will be one that we will never forget and we want to share
those wonderful memories with you.

The program opens with radio advertising from the listeners' viewpoint. Find out
what the listeners liked and disliked about radio commercials during the golden age.
Rounding out the hour is an unusual non-broadcast. Hosted by Edward R. Murrow, he
tries to persuade the people of Standard Oil of New Jersey in sponsoring the New
York Philharmonic radio program. Was he successful? Come to the Commercial Corner
and find out.

Sherlock Holmes has had many incarnations both on radio and in movies. As early as
the late 1890's Americans had an idea of how he looked and sounded as there was already
an early edition of "The Hound Of The Baskervilles," presented as an early Broadway
stage play. Here at "Cruising The Classics," we too haven't forgotten Sherlock Holmes
and this Thursday we shall present a full hour of Holmesean drama. If you're thinking
it's two Rathbone episodes we threw together no it's not. But what is it?
