"The Tomorrow Show" with Tom Snyder is NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE.
October 15, 1973-January 28, 1982.
An originally scheduled broadcast with Dick Cavett is rescheduled due to Tom Snyder coming down with the flu.
Station announcer opens the program stating:
"Tom Snyder's got the flu. So, tonight's show with Dick Cavett is being postponed. Instead, we present "Tomorrow In Hawaii" from hang gliding off a cliff in Oahu to a Leprosy colony on Molokai, recorded in August 1974."
NOTE: The announcer incorrectly lists the date as August 1974. Four different "Tomorrow Show" segments from a one week visit to Hawaii and broadcast fourteen months prior is integrated into this presentation (Sept. 10, 11, 12, 13, 1974). It is interesting that these tapes were still retained by The "Tomorrow Show" staff for in 1977 almost all the first four years of TS broadcasts were "wiped" and discarded.
First up from September 12, 1974, a segment on Hang Gliding. Dave Beinkoff discusses the sport stating that it is a cheap way of flying 25mph on 20-foot kites. A Demonstration is done.
Tom Snyder goes to Molokai and interviews people who have lived in a leprosy colony for many decades. Richard Marx was forced to live here in 1949 and Pop Domingo (Richard's father), came to the colony in 1941. They speak of the conditions and way of life during the time when no cure for leprosy existed, until 1951. This segment was originally broadcast September 11, 1974.
From fort DeRussy military base we visit with DR. Paul Bragg who since 1912 has conducted a lifestyle way of living on the Island with his "Long Area Health and Happiness Club."
A long time vegetarian and nutritionist, his philosophy is "rest is rust," and "waistline is your wasteland." He conducts an exercise class for Tom and discusses his advocation for vitamins, a lot of deep breathing, jogging, and spirituality thru meditation. The segment ends with all singing "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah" but changing the lyrics to suit his purpose and philosophy. This segment originally aired on September 10, 1974.
From the final original segment, Sept. 13, 1974, representing four telecasts from Hawaii (September 10-13, 1974) Tom Snyder thanks everyone associated with a fabulous four days/four shows from Hawaii.
