This Day in History: 1942-07-03

Weekend movie viewers could catch Eleanor Powers, Red Skelton, Bert Lahr, and The Tommy Dorsey Orchestra in “Ship Ahoy”. The Strand in Suffern had Gene Autrey in “Carolina Moon”, and Freddie Bartholomew in “Cadets in Parade”. The Ramsey Theater had a double feature too, Robert Young and Marsha Hunt in “Joe Smith, American”, and Sabu in Rudyard Kipling’s “Jungle Book”, plus the second episode of the thrilling serial “Gang Busters”.
