Followed by The Shadow starring William Johnstone, originally broadcast October 19, 1941, 84 years ago, The Hoodoo Ship. The crew of a ship filled with slaves murders the Africans aboard "The Raven" in 1850. In "modern" times, "The Raven" seems to be jinxed.

Finally, Lum and Abner, originally broadcast October 19, 1942, 83 years ago, Buying the Observatory Property. All of a sudden, Squire Skimp has three buyers for the old Beauford place!
