Those commenting on the cigarettes dont know that smoking was everywhere back then. I don't know anybody who thought it was disgusting because it was just part of everyday life. I enjoy these programs. We sure were easy to entertain back then.
In high school in the early 70s we had a student smoking area on school grounds we called Cancer Corner. I started smoking in Cancer Corner when I was 14 in grade 9, and by the end of grade 9 most of my friends smoked. Only a few didn't. There would be 100s of students there smoking before school, during breaks, spares and lunches. We also smoked in the washrooms and change rooms before and after PE (the PE teachers never came into the change rooms). I started at age 14 and quit cold turkey at age 30.
has anyone noticed when Garry Moore comes on he is constantly smoking. I know one of the Sponsers was the Old Chesterfield cigarettes...but I later read where he died of cancer.
Whoever this "person" is that put this episode up,often either leaves out the month,but they often put up the wrong date completely.So be careful with ANY programs shown by anyone.
