Part one of a two-hour remembrance for Memorial Day... Since the ending of the Civil War in 1865, America has lost over 700,000 soldiers. For Memorial Day, Mike Whorf remembers and pays tribute to those who fell in battle through song and word.
This first hour chiefly looks at the American Civil War...
Featuring selections from "Civil War" the musical, poetry, and factoids, Kaleidoscope offers this reflective musical tribute on the men and women who sacrificed all for this country.

Baseball: Great American Pastime

“Whoever would understand the heart and mind of America had better learn the game of baseball...” As this quotation sums up our attitude toward the national pastime, so our program illuminates the origin and the history of the great game of baseball.

[Just what is baseball in America? Legendary sports announcer, Ernie Harwell, attempts to answer that in this edition of Kaleidoscope with anecdotes and clips of games gone by.]
Some of the clips in "Baseball: Great American Pastime" include: a 1926 reading of "Casey at the Bat," excerpts from historical games, the comedy skit "Who's On First?," an interview clip of Lou Gehrig, and a few humorous moments of baseball.

From Loyola Productions, Inc. | Part of the Kaleidoscope series | 48:58
Jesus, in this narrative, emerges from the shadows to walk in a world peopled by simple hard-working men in a town called Nazareth. A town where a man named Jesus lived and learned the trade of his father Joseph, a carpenter.
[Mike Whorf presents an essay on the persons of Joseph and Jesus, accompanied by dramatic readings and reenactments from scripture. Whorf also gives some historical perspective to the life of a carpenter in the first century.]
