Bridgeport, Connecticut: Downtown Driving Tour (August, 2019)
A late Saturday afternoon driving tour of downtown Bridgeport, Connecticut in August, 2019. The police presence seen in the video is simply to close streets for a festival (Caribbean Jerk Fest) and not for any mass crime investigation!
Bridgeport was incorporated as a town in 1821 and as a city in 1836. The current population is around 145,000, making in the most populous city in the state and the fifth most populous in New England. The metro population is 940,000.
Bridgeport is located in Fairfield, County where the Pequonnock River empties into Long Island Sound. The city is just 60 miles from Manhattan.
The first Subway restaurant opened here in 1965. This is also the historic home of famous circus man P.T. Barnum. Starting on the right at 4:12 in the video, we get a really good look at the Barnum Museum.
The Barnum Museum building was completed in 1893 and was placed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1972. The museum houses an extension archive collection of P.T. Barnum and the history of the city.
The video ends at the Webster Bank Arena. This venue opened in 2001 and houses the Bridgeport Sound Tigers of the American Hockey League (AHL affiliate of the New York Islanders). This arena seats 8,412 for hockey.

What in the World Reunion | 1975 | WTIC Hartford, CT | Channel 3 (WTIC-TV & WFSB) Quiz Show
As part of its 50th anniversary celebration, WTIC Radio in Hartford, Connecticut recreates the local television trivia show “What in the World” on Monday, February 10, 1975. The program had run on the CBS TV affiliate in Hartford, Channel 3, when that station bore its original WTIC-TV call letters.
“What in the World” was one of the first programs broadcast by Channel 3 when it began operations in September 1957, collocated with WTIC (AM) and WTIC-FM first at 26 Grove Street (now Bob Steele Street) and then, starting in 1962, at Broadcast House on Constitution Plaza. Its last episode aired in May 1974 shortly after the Travelers Insurance Company, the original owner of Channel 3 and WTIC Radio, sold the stations.
Incorporated as the Ten Eighty Corporation with financial backing from local business magnate David Chase, WTIC's management bought the radio stations on March 8, 1974. On that same date, WTIC-TV was purchased by Post-Newsweek which immediately changed its call letters to WFSB. Eleven months later, WTIC still considered WTIC-TV to be an indivisible part of its history despite having relocated in October to state-of-the-art, radio-only studios on the 19th floor of Chase Enterprises' Gold Building at One Financial Plaza.
Throughout its seventeen-season run, “What in the World” was hosted by John Dando (1917-1987), an associate professor of English at Trinity College who was widely respected for his knowledge of Shakespeare. The members of the four-person panel changed over the years but were always comprised by highly accomplished raconteurs. Tonight they are attorney James N. Egan (1916-1975), a Rhodes scholar and Harvard Law graduate who served in the Pacific aboard the aircraft carrier USS Wasp (CV-18) during World War II; actress Marcia Alcorn (1927-2015), an arts patron and founding member of the Hartford Stage; Gloria Schaffer (b. 1930), Connecticut's Secretary of State from 1971 to 1978; and (Arthur) Lane Tryon, Jr. (1924-1998), the president of Stackpole – Moore – Tryon, a high-end clothing store on the southeast corner of Asylum and Trumbull Streets, and a veteran of the Battle of the Bulge.
The game show format provided an amusing structure to an otherwise erudite and freeform discussion. As described in a 1963 advertisement in “Broadcasting” magazine, “the program is basically a quiz … on the geography, history, and architecture of the world’s interesting places and the habits, customs, and accomplishments of people. The prizes are modest and they don’t go to [the winning panelist] but to institutions which have need.”
Usually the show focused on a specific area of the globe but the theme tonight is 1925, the year WTIC (AM) began broadcasting (on February 10). Topics include movies, sports, books, awards, politicians, magazines, musicals, events, modes of transportation, songs, and celebrities related to the 1920s.
During its years on television, “What in the World” was produced at the WTIC studios by Baker Advertising on behalf of the Electric Companies of Connecticut consortium: the Connecticut Light and Power Company, the Hartford Electric Light Company, and the United Illuminating Company. Only one commercial representing all three utilities ran during each show, albeit three minutes long.
Concluding a broadcast of The 'TIC Afternoon Edition, the first announcer is Lou Palmer (who will become one of the first reporters and anchors at ESPN as well as one of the first program hosts on WFAN Radio in New York). The show’s theme song “Around the World,” performed by the Mantovani Orchestra, was also the theme song from the 1956 film “Around the World in 80 Days” which won several Academy Awards including best picture and best music. The program announcer on television was Ben Hawthorne (1905-1990) but for this radio version it is more likely Bruce Kern (1915-1977). Introduced by 'TIC after Dark host Bill Henry (later with Connecticut Public Radio), the Travelers Weather Service meteorologist is Ken Garee. And NBC News’ Peter Hackes congratulates this NBC radio affiliate on its golden anniversary.

NOTE: The winner of tonight’s game, Jim Egan, and his older brother William were a winning pair of contestants on the CBS Television Network game shows “The $64,000 Question” in 1956 and “The $64,000 Challenge” in 1957.

WFSB Hartford, CT | Channel 3 Signs-on as WTIC-TV in 1957 | 60th Anniversary (2017) | Bob Steele
This clip of the September 23, 1957 inaugural broadcast of Channel 3 ---then licensed as WTIC-TV but reassigned as WFSB in 1974--- was broadcast live from its original studios at 26 Grove Street (Bob Steele Street since 2013) in downtown Hartford, Connecticut that WTIC had occupied since WTIC Radio was founded there in 1925.
Welcoming the audience to Channel 3 is Paul W. Morency (1899-1974), the president of the Travelers Broadcasting Service Corporation (which will be reconstituted as Broadcast-Plaza Inc. in 1964), the media subsidiary of the Travelers Insurance Company and the licensee of WTIC-TV (Channel 3), WTIC (AM), and WTIC-FM until the Travelers exited the industry in 1974. Hired at WTIC Radio as its general manager in 1929, the World War I U.S. Army veteran will retire as president in 1967.
Bob Steele (1911-2002), the avuncular radio personality who had been a WTIC staff announcer since 1936 and the host of the morning show there since 1943, ad libs over film documenting the construction of Channel 3’s antenna on Avon Mountain. In addition to his morning radio duties, he will host “Close-up on Sports” weeknights on Channel 3 from 1957 to 1966. In 1991, the future national Radio Hall of Fame inductee will retire from doing his weekday morning show ---after decades as the highest rated local radio host in the United States--- but will continue to broadcast it one Saturday each month until a few weeks before his death eleven years later.
Seen but not heard is the master of ceremonies, Hartford-native Ed Begley (1901-1970), the Broadway and Hollywood actor who performed on WTIC Radio from 1931 to 1942. In 1956, he won a Tony Award for best featured actor in the original New York stage production of “Inherit the Wind” which closed in April 1957. That month also marked the release of the classic film “12 Angry Men,” a movie in which Begley co-starred that was nominated for the Academy Award for best picture. He would go on to win the Oscar for best supporting actor in the 1962 movie “Sweet Bird of Youth.”
Other dignitaries who participated in the inaugural broadcast included Governor Abraham Ribicoff; the Right Rev. Walter H. Gray, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Connecticut; and notable WTIC alumni such as actors Louis Nye (The Steve Allen Show), Jan Miner (network radio actress and Madge the Manicurist in Palmolive TV commercials), Rita Morley (soap opera actress known as America's Most Televised Girl for appearing in Coty cosmetics commercials), and Martin Begley (NBC casting director and Ed's younger brother); cabaret singer Terri Stevens; harpist Robert Maxwell; and bandleader Paul Landerman conducting his orchestra.
Evening news anchor Denise D’Ascenzo and meteorologist and “Better Connecticut” co-host Scot Haney set-up the clip on the September 14, 2017 edition of “Eyewitness News at 5:00 p.m.” in a live stand-up from the Connecticut Science Center where the Meredith Corporation is hosting a public reception to celebrate its Hartford CBS affiliate’s 60th anniversary. They interview the current vice president and general manager of Channel 3, Klarn DePalma, who thanks the audience for its decades of loyalty.
The segment opens and closes with Eyewitness News at 5:00 p.m. co-anchors Dennis House and Erin Connolly. They are on a news set in one of WFSB's studios in Rocky Hill, Connecticut.
[NOTES: The “Eyewitness News” brand was not introduced to Channel 3 until 1974 when Post-Newsweek Stations bought WTIC-TV and changed its call letters to WFSB. Also, when Channel 3 was launched in 1957, Walter C. Johnson (1904-1963), not Mr. Morency, held the title “vice president and general manager” over all of the WTIC stations from 1957 to his death six years later. He was hired by the Travelers as a clerk in 1922 and became the first regular announcer on WTIC Radio when it launched in 1925.]
