Comments: OK, I found out it is quite a boo-boo to have sheriff's
dept. uniforms laying around. I had a good time dropping it all off at the
dept. to a deputy who thought I was really strange and who was also really
interested in which house had all been found at and who might have left it.
That was a nice trip downtown though I neglected to stop for a coney.

Wouldn't be NBC launch coverage 35 years ago WITHOUT him!
Comments: CNN says TV Guide is re-habbing itself again. Isn't the
cable guide fed from Tulsa? The magazine will cut TV listings and have MORE
articles. It's now a lifestyle mag - or so someone thought. I mean doesn't
EVERYONE have cable? That is the point of the publisher.
7/27/2005: Jim Hartz sent a photo from
his NBC coverage of NASA with comments in Guestbook 189 (the current
Guestbook as of today).

Comments: Signing in after all these years.
With KTUL as staff from 1946 through 1952. The transferred to KFPW in Ft.
Smith as P.D. Left the Griffin stations as Program Director of WMC in Memphis
in 1954.
Worked at both NBC affiliate WMC Radio and TV and the CBS station WREC Radio
and TV till retirement in 1985. Still do voice overs for Radio and TV.
Some broadcasts accomplished:
Did the Patti Page show from KTUL 1946-47 with Al
Clauser, Rudy Cohen, Glen Hardman.
Ole Miss Football color on the net for a couple of years 1954-1955.
Did cut-ins on the NBC "Today Show" from Memphis.
And the one thing I always dreamed of doing while a student at Will Rogers
high...the CBS dance band shows late at night on the CBS Radio Net from the
Peabody Hotel in Memphis. Some bands...Clyde McCoy, Tony Pastor, The Glenn
Miller Band with Tex Beneke...and the big bands of the day.
Had a long and successful career in Radio and TV. There are lots of memories
in reading Tulsa TV Memories as the names of friends and associates, some
long gone, that bring back a successful career.
Thanks for the mentions and to all the great people I worked with a big Hello!
Welcome, Harlan.

Comments: Hello,
I found this site while trying to locate my cousin (Larry Strain). The last
post from him seems to be 2001. Does anyone have anything on him that is
more recent? I tried to send an e-mail to him at airpros@hsnp.com but received
a return DaemonMailer saying the address was unknown. Would like to contact
him if possible.
When he was working at KRMG, does anyone remember that he went by the name
of Larry Randall for a short time? I was about 14 at the time and went with
him while he did the midnight to O-dark-thirty show. I remember going across
the hall to use the restroom and then walking back into the studio, to see
him scowling at me with his hands over the mic. He said, "Congratulations,
when you opened that door you sent out a nice toilet flush over the air."
(LOL) Jeebuz, that was almost 50 years ago.
Anyway, thanx for any help if anyone has a current way to contact him.

Comments: Hey there! I found your site while doing a websearch, trying
to remember the name of a certain 70s afternoon kids' show on Channel 8,
and learned of course that that would be Uncle Zeb.
Not bad for only remembering the theme song and that Bell's Amusement Park
featured heavily in the programme somehow! :)
While browsing through the UHF section -- which is too cool, by the way,
as Weird Al's one of my favourites -- I found a "where are they now" thing
about the upside-down yodeler, Charles Marsh.
Well, I found this at IMDb, which
lists the only other two movies he's credited in but, sadly, provides no
other info. The rest of the web is even less helpful! By the way, there's
a link back to your UHF page from Weird
Al's site. :D
Thanks for the site -- I like to check back in from time to time to see what
I've missed!

Comments:
It can now be told...
On March 1, 1981 (only a couple of weeks before the launch of
KGCT, Channel 41), a challenging query was phoned in
to the Tulsa Tribune's "Call The Editor" column:
"I just want to know one question. What would old Ike do if he was riding
in the saddle?"
Apparently the caller (who spoke in a mush-mouthed, silibant manner) felt
it to be one for the ages, as he had called it in twice before without success.
When it was finally unleashed the following day, a micro-controversy erupted.

From a 1995 Tulsa newspaper insert by a sleazy OKC investment outfit:
Mr. Safer appears glum at being pressed into service hawking "viaticals";
maybe he just had a rough day.
Viaticals are "death
futures" (How's that for an oxymoron?) Here's the
"60 Minutes"
quote IN context.

Comments: Regarding the '57 Plymouth buried on the east side of the
courthouse...
If I'm not mistaken, a drawing will be held to determine the winner. I can't
recall if the raffle tickets will be issued when the car comes up, or if
those tickets were issued in '57.
When I was in kindergarten, our class buried a time capsule that was to be
unearthed shortly after what was expected to be our high school graduation.
I wasn't there when the capsule came up, but a friend said my contribution
included my beloved OU baseball cap and a package of football cards. That
friend has kept those items for me, but I've lost touch with him. I fear
he may have profited from those cards...

Comments: Ok, now I found something good. A book called "Talking with
Tulsa Teens" by William H. Young, published by something called "professors
of the city". It features photos of Tulsa teens on the "restless ribbon"
and the great comment "most boys feel under a social compulsion to drink
beer." Anyone know anything about this? Looks like 1967 or so.
I wonder if those "professors of the city" included Tulsa TV's twin
psychologists, Drs. Jan Kizziar and Judy Hagedorn
of "Generation Rap" (circa 1970).

Comments: I was so surprised to stumble on to your website. I did
the Sports on KTEW in the mid seventies, and very much enjoyed reading that
Frank became a CPA, and seeing the note from Roger Burch. I also wonder what
ever happened to George Hummingbird, and whether Jerry is still anchoring.
I am an attorney these days, and travel most of the time. While on a plane,
a guy from Tulsa told me that John Hudson had passed away several years ago,
which made me sad. What a funny guy!
Judy, it's good to hear from you. Erick told us in
Guestbook 46 about John Hudson and
Jerry Webber, who passed away in late 1998.

be unearthed in front of the courthouse? Supposedly its going to be in 2007,
but no clear date has been announced. Also, who gets that "new" Plymouth?
A few years back, the news showed the day it was buried, and some dude putting
a case of brew in the trunk. Always wondered what a sealed vault with leaky
beer cans inside would create??

Comments: Someone mentioned the new "Big Switch" ads on KJRH. It's
a bit of a gimmick, as it is not KTUL news personalities headed to 2, but
it will be the game shows Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune. The 3 people the
ads refer to are Alex Trebek, Pat Sajak, and Vanna White.
Scripps, which owns KJRH and several other TV stations across the country,
has tried over the past few years to get these shows on their stations.

Comments: Long-time PBS newsman, Paul Duke, has died of leukemia here
in DC at 78. He hosted WASHINGTON WEEK for many years and also worked for
NBC News way back when. I worked with him twice and found him a good guy.
He started as a radio announcer as high school studio in Richmond, VA I believe.
Sad also to say that James Doohan, the chief engineer of the Starship Enterprise
in the original "Star Trek" TV series and movies who responded to the command
"Beam me up, Scotty," died Wednesday. He was 85. Doohan died at 5:30 a.m.
at his Redmond, Wash., home with his wife of 28 years, Wende, at his side,
Los Angeles agent and longtime friend Steve Stevens said. The cause of death
was pneumonia and Alzheimer's disease, he said.
Webmaster: While talking with the "2001: A Space
Odyssey" actors at Trek Expo 2001 (how's that for synchronicity?), I
heard a commotion just behind me. It was James Doohan cruising by in a golf
cart. We gave him a wave.
Mr. Doohan told the Expo Square audience that after doing "Star Trek: The
Next Generation" episode, "Relics", he learned that he had suffered a small
stroke during the filming. He had noticed midway through that he began to
have trouble remembering his lines. The director got a bit nettled with him.
He was slow of speech, but lucid during his Tulsa visit.
I'll always remember Mr. Scott's advice to Chief Engineer LaForge in that
episode. Maybe TV/radio tech types will find it on the mark, too:
Scott: "Do you mind a little advice? Starfleet captains are like children.
They want everything right now, and they want it their way. But the secret
is to give only what they need, not what they want."
LaForge: "Yeah, well, I told the captain I'd have this analysis done in an
hour."
Scott: "How long would it really take?"
LaForge: "An hour."
Scott: "Oh, you didn't tell him how long it would REALLY take, did you?"
LaForge: "Well of course I did."
Scott: "Oh, laddie, you've got a lot to learn if you want people to think
of you as a miracle worker!"

Belfast from 1998. George Harrison and Paul McCartney were both Skiffle fans.

Comments: Frances Langford gained her greatest popularity on Bob Hope's
radio show and travels. There was a great documentary a few years ago about
the reunion of the group that traveled so much to entertain the troops
("Entertaining
the Troops"). It was interesting to hear their reminiscences. Even
when they were dogged tired and suffering from jungle rot and other maladies,
they still put on shows for "the boys."
On the radio one of the favorite lines that Frances Langford had was a retort
to Hope's first comment to her, "Frances, you're looking good."
Frances' line was "And you're looking, too." This remark never failed to
get a big laugh from the lonesome, horny soldiers and sailors.

Comments: Former actress
and singer Frances Langford, who entertained troops with Bob Hope during
WWII, has passed away at the age of 92. She married Harold Stuart in 1994.
(Mr. Stuart was an original co-owner of KVOO-TV,
and owned KVOO-AM into the 1970s and 80s. He was previously married to
Joan Skelly Stuart, daughter of oilman W.G.
Skelly, who built KVOO-AM into a powerhouse, and
whose initials form the call letters of KWGS, first FM station in
Oklahoma.)
Here's an
NPR
audio story.
One of Frances Langford's starring roles was in 1935's "Every Night At
Eight", which has a Tulsa TV connection. Her
signature song, "I'm In The Mood For Love", was written for this film by
the great team of
Dorothy Fields
and Jimmy McHugh.
The above picture is courtesy of Bill Hyden. Bill also took this
picture of the Stuarts a year
or so ago. Our sympathy to Mr. Stuart and to their many friends.

Comments: Ceremony to honor Jim Palmer at OHS tomorrow morning (7/8)
at 10 a.m. at the 2nd Floor Conference Room, Wiley Post Building, 2100 North
Lincoln Blvd (the old building).
Jim Palmer, long time news director at WKY Radio, Broadcast Executive United
Press International Dallas, and former morning news anchor at KTOK and
KOMA-AM/KOKC recently donated his complete collection of tapes of newscasts,
interviews, radio documentaries, and reporters notes gathered and produced
over a thirty year period.
Earlier this year, he was inducted into the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame.
One of the initiatives, I have been working on is to collect as much broadcast
news, both radio and television, as possible to augment our collection of
Oklahoma newspapers. Broadcast news captured many important events in our
history, as did the newspapers. Obtaining the Jim Palmer Collection adds
to that effort. His work will be available for scholarly research as well
as to the media and public in general.
We are honoring him for his major contribution to the archives of the Oklahoma
Historical Society.

I finally stumbled across the women's pages and enjoyed
reading about Betty Boyd. I went to the charm school she ran at the 21st
and Yale Sears, which culminated in a fashion show. The other TV connection
is that I went on Wednesday night instead of Monday, because going on Monday
would have meant I would miss The Monkees! Definitely one of the experiences
that has stuck with me. When pressed, I can still be rather charming.
