Thanksgiving Day-1962

TV Guide Closeup of Thanksgiving Parade Coverage

"Barnaby Goes to Plymouth" A KYW-TV Special starring of course, Barnaby {Linn Sheldon) featuring an reenactment of the first Thanksgiving..Filmed on location at Plymouth, Mass. and aired Thanksgiving night. The special was scheduled to be rebroadcast Saturday, November 23, 1963 at 7:30PM but presumably John F. Kennedy assasination coverage preempted/canceled it..

Cleveland Radio DJ(WNCX)/Broadcast historian Mike Olszewski recently uncovered this special, presumed "lost" for years..and Showed it to a warm, appreciative crowd October 19, 2008 at Ghoulardifest IV at the Holiday Inn, Independence, Ohio..In accordance with the wishes of the Linn Sheldon Family, it was only shown once, and there are no current plans to release it on DVD..


"The Pat Boone Show"..A Thanksgiving Day Special Variety hour featuring Patti Paige, Peter, Paul and Mary, Elaine Dunn and Phil Harris, in a rare TV appearance. This special was unusual in that it aired at 5:30 PM ET on NBC (WFMJ-21 Youngstown and WSEE-35 Erie, Pa.)

TV Guide Ad for the Dale Young Show, WJW-TV's attempt to create a local variety show similar to Channel 3's Mike Douglas and Channel 5's One O Clock Club..The show lasted from Fall 1962 to Spring 1963. Question:One of the gentlemen in the ad in obviously Dale Young, but who is the other guy in the picture?..Perhaps Jim Doney? He had been a cohost of this show with Young..

A brief look at Thanksgiving Day, 1962.The Thanksgiving Day Parades were "coordinated" by Bud Palmer and Chris Schenkel for NBC and Bob Keeshan (Captain Kangaroo) for CBS. There was plenty of Football on the Three Networks..CBS had Green Bay at Detroit (when the Lions were actually competetive)..ABC carried the AFL New York Titans at Denver Broncos game..CBS also had the Texas A&M/Texas College Football Game.
There was a Barnaby Prime Time special, as noted in the above ad..In a different twist this time, I will include Erie and Toledo Programs in the listings below..



A special treat for the holiday..Gordon MacRae and 10 year old daughter Meredith singing "Count Your Bessings" on the NBC-TV Colgate Comedy Hour Thursday, November 28, 1954. Meredith MacRae grew up to become "Billie Jo Bradley" on Petticoat Junction, as well as appearing on many Game Shows and hosting a local talk show in Los Angeles..She passed away in 2000..Courtesy IraRona


Very recently found this, courtesy muttley16 at YouTube..The Original Prologue and opening titles for "Mouse On The Mayflower," A Rankin/Bass produced NBC animated special first shown in 1968..The Theme is sung by Tennessee Ernie Ford, who also stars in the special..I was fortunate to tape this special in a 1991 syndicated showing on WJW-TV 8..I consuider this cartoon a minor classic..

I would also like to take this time to wish the readers a Blessed and safe Thanksgiving Holiday..

November 1962-OSU-Michigan Week

TV Guide ad for a syndicated showing of "Sir Francis Drake" Wednesdays at 7PM on WKST-33 Youngstown. WKST began on Channel 45 in 1957, moving to Channel 33 in 1959. Channel 33 was remnamed WYTV in 1964. Channel 45 became WXTV, a failed independent from 1960-62, then WNEO PBS, Alliance Ohio in 1973..Channel 45's analog signal was shut off for good Wednesday, November 19, 2008 to make way for WNEO's digital signal, also on Channel 45, which signed on Friday, November 21, 2008.

TV Guide Ad for the syndicated "Knute Rockne Story" an hour long special aired on WJW-TV 8 Tuesday, November 27, 1962 at 7:30..Preempting "The New Loretta Young Show" and the "Lloyd Bridges Show."

June 1962 ad f0r Bill Jorgensen of KYW-TV 3's Eyewitness News "Night Edition" He would move across to TV 5 WEWS in the mid 1960's before starting a long career in New York City in 1967, first at WNEW-TV 5 and then at WPIX-11. He was among the first anchors onf INN news in the early 1980's..(Wikipedia)

!962 Ad for Warren Guthrie News. "The Sohio Reporter" aired not only on WJW TV 8, but WSPD-13 Toledo and WKBN-27 Youngstown

1962 TV Guide Ad for Mickey Mouse Club Reruns weekday on Channel 8.


WKBN ad for the Ohio State-Michigan Game..From TV Guide


This time, I thought we would look at the last week of November, 1962. Particularly with the Ohio State Michigan game coming up. The week in Television according to TV Guide..

Barnaby's Party on Saturdays (7:30-10AM) was a big 2 and one half hours long on KYW-TV 3..WJW countered at 8AM with B'wana Don, a show originating from Storer Broadcasting in Detroit and also aired in Toledo on WSPD-13.

WEWS-TV 5 carried Ensign O'Toole, a military comedy starring Dean Jones and Jack Albertson Thursdays at 7PM..What was unusual about this was that it was a current NBC program, usually carried Sundays at 7. KYW aired David L. Wolper's Biography Series in it's place.

ABC's only 2 color series were The Jetsons (Sunday, 7:30) and The Flintstones (Friday, 7:30.) However, Channel 33 Youngstown and 49 Akron did not carry these shows in color..

On the opposite side Outside of the above mentioned shows, The only show Channel 5 aired in color regularly was the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson..

Dale Young Time aired Monday-Friday 11-12 Noon on WJW-TV 8..as an answer to One O Clock Club on 5 and Mike Douglas on 3..The show only lasted from October 1, 1962-Into the Spring of 1963. Co hosts were Ernie Anderson and later, Jim Doney..

First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy was profiled in "The World of Jacqueline Kennedy" Friday, November 30, 1962 at 10PM on NBC (3,21)

The 1962 Michigan at Ohio State game was aired by the CBS Network with Lindsay Nelson, Jim Simpson and Terry Brennan as announcers..The 1962 game had similarities to this year's in that Ohio State had a winning record (6-3), though at 4-2 in the Big Ten they were tied with Northwestern for 3rd Place. Wisconsin won the Big Ten while Minnesota was second..Michigan was last with a 1-6 league record 2-7 overall.. Ohio State won the 1962 game 28-0.

In 2008 Michigan is next to last at 2-5 and 3-8 overall..while Ohio State at 6-1 and 9-2 is in a 3-way tie with Michigan State and Penn State for the Big Ten lead...

A Little Housekeeping..

Hello Folks:
Just a note to make everyone aware of a little Blog "Housekeeping" as it were. Two of the links on the left margin of the blog have been deleted..

Nostalgia Links..The Lady that was doing the site let the domain name lapse..

Clarke Ingram's DuMont History Site-Clarke's site had been hosted on AOL Hometown which went out of business at the end of October. If Clarke ever restarts the DuMont site, the link will be added back.

Also, Tonight I added a new link..Tri-State Media Watch, focusing on the Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky-Southern Indiana Region. A 23 year old internet radio programmer from Florence, Ky. started the blog about a week ago, and seems to be doing a good job. He was inspired to begin his own blog from Ohio Media Watch..Best of luck to this young man..

RIP:Herb Score (1933-2008)

Early 1950's Sports Illustrated Cover-Courtesy FoxSports.com

The Voice of Baseball in Cleveland has been silenced..

Herb Score,retired TV and Radio Broadcaster for the Cleveland Indians..Passed away this morning at the age of 75 after a long illness. He began in baseball as a promising left-handed pitcher for the Indians in the mid 1950's..An unfortunate accident on May 7, 1957 in which Score was struck in the eye by the Yankees' Gil McDougald, effectively limited his career. Though he came back to pitch, Arm problems eventually forced his retirement 1n 1964 after pitching for the Indians and Chicago White Sox. He immediately began his broadcast career on Indians Telecasts from 1964-67, then on radio from 1968-97..That era up until 1994 saw some of the worst Indians teeams, leading fellow broadcaster Joe Tait to comment "Herb has seen more bad baseball than anyone in Cleveland"..

To this longtime Indians fan (since 1970) it felt good to see Herb be able to broadcast some winners in the 1990's, including 2 world series teams (1995, 1997).Though sadly, neither won..Shortly after retiring, in 1998, Herb was involved in an auto sccident in New Philadelphia, Ohio that led to his longtime illness..

Prayers and good thoughts go out to the Score family, and to the Cleveland Indians Family at this time..

WEWS Eyewitness News 1978-Bill Jacocks on "Video Piracy"

The following YouTube video is from an WEWS-TV 5 Eyewitness News report 30 years ago on the new at-that time Video Cassette Recorder. Prices were starting to come down on the devices at the time, and a new era in home entertainment dawned..The aspect of taping your favorite show to watch at a later time began to be a commonplace thing in homes across America.

The report also touched on a subject that is still controversial today..Video Piracy..In 1978 there were already underground networks trading and selling the latest Feature Film Videos..Legitimate Video sales were just beginning..Early home video camera were shown..There was already a mention in this report about Video Laser Discs on the horizon..The Technology has come a long way in the last 30 years with DVR's and YouTube..

Dave Patterson and Ted Henry are the News Anchors here..Ted jokingly goes out to a commercial saying something like, "After the break, Bill Jacocks introduces a 5-part series on Home Video Recorders..So, if you have one, roll your tape when we come back."
