THE EASY ACES

CONTENTS:

     Jane and Ace Goodman started on radio around 1930 in Kansas City over KMBC and were heard locally through 1932.  They began their network radio careers on CBS when they were sponsored by Lavoris three times a week from 03/01/32 until 05/30/33.  Their sponsorship changed to Jad Salts, still over CBS, beginning 10/10/33.  They were heard four times a week until 04/27/34, then three times a week from 05/02/34 to 12/14/34.  They then started a very short run from 01/07/35 to 01/31/35 four times a week.  Beginning 02/04/35 they moved to the NBC and were sponsored by Anacin three times a week until 05/29/35.  From 06/04/35 until 10/22/42 they were heard 3 times a week for Anacin over the Blue network.  Their finally network jump put them back on CBS starting 10/28/42 three times a week until 11/26/43 for Anacin.  The programs format changed from the 15 minute shows to once a week 30 minute programs from 12/01/43 until they finished their network run on 01/17/45 for Anacin.  The program was then heard in syndication from 1945 to 1946 as a 5 times a week, 15 minute show.    Discover why Jane was considered radio's mistress of misinformation.
