Billy Murray on "Club Car Special" Program #1 1934

A weekly radio program highlighting the features in the March of Events and City Life section of Hearst Sunday newspapers. This was the initial program in the series for January 18, 1934, titled "Wedding Party." This program highlights the columns by Will Rogers, George Ade, O. O. McIntyre, and Milt Gross. Pre-recorded in the studios of the General Broadcasting Company (Brunswick building), 799 7th Avenue in New York.

Most of the cast members are unidentified (including the announcer and train conductor), but the early recording artist Billy Murray is identified by name when he reads O. O. McIntyre's column (at 06:19). (He also plays other roles on the program, listen carefully!) Another 1920s recording star includes Jerry Macy (Gerald Underhill Macy) impersonating Will Rogers.
