Our Miss Brooks - "Conklin the Bachelor" (1953)

Our Miss Brooks, “Conklin the Bachelor” (episode 227), originally broadcast on CBS on December 13, 1953. Eve Arden stars as Madison High English teacher Connie Brooks, with Gale Gordon as the formidable Principal Osgood Conklin. At Christmastime, Connie’s plans for a dinner involving biology teacher Philip Boynton become tangled in Mrs. Conklin’s elaborate effort to rekindle her husband’s attentions—and perhaps acquire a coveted beaver stole. The domestic maneuvering soon reaches the halls of Madison High, with Walter Denton and the Conklins adding to the holiday confusion. Old Time Comedy Radio presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
