This is a rebroadcast of a show almost 6 years before:

Gunsmoke

5/8/54 "The Constable" Program #107 William Conrad (Matt Dillon), Parley Baer (Chester Proudfoot), Howard McNear (Doc Adams), Georgia Ellis (Kitty Russell), Jack Krurschen, John, Dehner (Rance), Joseph Kearns, Fred MacKaye, Vic Perrin ; Director - Norman Macdonnell ; Writer - John Meston ; Music Composer/Conductor - Rex Koury ; Announcer - Roy Rowan ; Dodge's businessmen hire Willard, an ill-equipped constable, to hadle the law in Dodge when they disagree with Matt's policy regarding some rowdy Texas cowboys. Fearful that Matt will destroy the town's economy with his tough tactics, they curtail his activities to matters outside the town limits. When word gets out that Dodge is now an "open town" all the scum and riff-raff within a hundred miles arrive to have a grand old time.

John Dehner, here as "Rance", had the lead role as Paladin in "Have gun, Will Travel" on the radio.

This was unique, in that the HGWT TV show pre-dated the radio show.
