Ted loved listening to the radio
An exclusive excerpt of Ben Bradlee, Jr.’s “The Kid”: Growing up, on Saturday afternoons during football season, Ted [Williams] liked to get home in time to listen to the USC games on radio. He loved Irvine “Cotton” Warburton, a San Diego boy who was the team’s All America quarterback in 1933. “On Saturday night we’d listen to Benny Goodman,” Ted recalled. “Swing bands were the thing then. I still prefer swing to anything else.” His favorite radio program was “Gang Busters,” which, in collaboration with J. Edgar Hoover, dramatized closed FBI cases. Originally launched in 1935 and called “G-men,” the show featured dramatic sound effects of screeching tires, police sirens and tommy-guns.

Just some musings and electronic gatherings of an ink-stained wretch turned social media junkie. As JADAL says: No trees were destroyed in the sending of this organic message. I do concede, however, a significant number of electrons may have been inconvenienced.
