FACES IN THE NIGHT
[RADIO-SERIES]
Found in the radio program log of the Lincoln Evening Journal. KFOR and KOIL were under the
same ownership and shared both CBS shows and the same acting troupe, the KOIL Players. When
the Mutual network went coast-to-coast at the end of 1936, KFOR added the network feed of The
Witch’s Tale to their schedule and dropped Faces in the Night. However, in the middle of January
a new late-evening show cropped up, The Witching Hour. It is unknown whether or not this was a
continuation of Faces in the Night.
[Bruce Nicoll, Lincoln Evening Journal, December 20, 1936] “We wish that KFOR’s Faces in the
Night program would do an about face or give up…”
ORIGINATION: KFOR, Lincoln, Nebraska.
