Originally broadcast on February 6, 1954. At the time, the show appeared on Saturdays at 8pm(et), followed by a five minute newscast at 8:25. Adapted for television on April 28, 1956.
In the television version of Gunsmoke "The big broad" Lena Wave was played by the great actor Dee J Thompson also known as my mom! Trust me she was accurately cast! Find it if you can she gambles and only kills one man when she comes into town!

Barry I. Grauman These shows aren't new? I find it hard to believe this is from 1956
Yep. This is "old-time radio". The scripts were timeless.
Chester really played his role here. Loved how the old broad handled him.😂😂😂😂
