First a look at this day in History.

Then Mr. President starring Edward Arnold, originally broadcast April 9, 1950, 74 years ago, Good Friday. A president feels fit and glad to be alive, but has a strange premonition about death. Guess who?

Followed by Let George Do It starring Bob Bailey and Virginia Gregg, originally broadcast April 9, 1951, 73 years ago, Uncle Harry’s Bones. Where is Uncle Harry? When his bones are found, the search is only beginning. It's a five-year-old murder, and everyone in town is a suspect!

Then Inner Sanctum Mysteries, originally broadcast April 9, 1946, 78 years ago, Lady With A Plan starring Elspeth Eric. The wife of the warden uses one of the inmates to kill her husband. She then double-crosses the convict who is machine-gunned in a graphic scene.

Followed by a quick look at the news of April 9, 1946, then Nick Carter, Master Detective starring Lon Clark, originally broadcast April 9, 1946, 78 years ago, the case of the Disappearing Corpse. Not only does the murdered man vanish, but so does Nick Carter!

Finally Superman, originally broadcast April 9, 1941, 83 years ago, Last of the Clipper Ships. The secret of "The Whistler" is revealed, and a very important piece of oiled silk is examined. Though unbilled, Budd Collyer played Superman, and Jackie Kelk (Homer in Henry Aldrich) played Jimmy Olson.
