We have a Suspense! Ingrid Bergman is on Lux. And, the WAMU-given air date of the Dragnet episode was 1951, not 1952, and Tales of the Texas Rangers was 1952, not 1951, and the Lux play was January 26, 1948, not November 26, all three according to Mr. Goldin's records.
Thanks to J. David Goldin's RadioGOLDINdex for these brief synopses.
